KWAM1 is a second-generation Fuji star with nearly fifty years under his belt, reworking the vision of this genre created from Islamic Ramadan traditions, Yoruba drumming and Meslismatic vocal deliveries. His role has been to modernise both with relevant technology and musical innovation. With just about one prominent living first-generation Fuji star General Killington Ayinla alive, KWAM1 is the defacto patron of the genre, which boasts of the patronage of the Southwestern Nigerian proletariat. Fuji has been Nigeria’s youth tool of expression for at least 40 years, similar to the way Hip-Hop has been for America.
