Exclusive!!!Barrister picked K1 from the gutter, cleaned him up – Obesere

During his lifetime, Barrister boldly said it that he is the creator of fuji and I think the only person that is qualified to have disagreed
with him is Kollington Ayinla, and since he hasn’t said that Barrister is not the originator of fuji music, who amongst us, the younger generation, has the right to say otherwise?

The only thing Kollington said was that God should bless the work of our hands that it is not all about titles.

Even K1 said so himself in his first album released in the 80s that Barrister is the creator of fuji music. Why is it after the death of Barrister that he is now saying something different? It is a pity that this has to come from someone like K1.

Barrister picked him from the gutter, washed him clean and gave him opportunities.

Barrister trained him and what other fuji acts did not enjoy from Barrister, K1 got. Barrister never took offence with K1 even in instances where he should have; rather he handled issues diplomatically because he didn’t want to be seen as an elder who was envious of a younger one.

Wasiu Ayinde should go and think deeply. Why is it that he always rubbishes everybody who appreciates him? That is why I can never associate with him because he always messes people up.

Anybody that God wants to keep away from disgrace wouldn’t go near K1. When I said I didn’t want to get close to him, people thought I was a bad person but now they know better. In spite of how Malaika used to respect K1, he eventually abused him with a whole album. Even though Saheed Osupa acknowledged K1 in the US, and people thought they had settled their differences, Saheed later abused him again because K1 tried to mess him up.

When Barrister proclaimed Saheed Osupa as the king of music, K1 was annoyed that why should anyone else be named king instead of him.

Meanwhile, all these titles are just to appreciate ourselves. There is no musician that wouldn’t call himself the best so it’s all normal. Why is it that K1 is always having issues with people? He is envious of the people behind him, he is jealous of the people ahead of him and now, he is fighting with the dead.

Why hasn’t anyone come out to abuse me? It is because I always give people their due respect and I’m constantly working to improve myself.

K1’s name was initially Wasiu Ishola but he adopted the name Wasiu Ayinde Barrister to promote himself as a protégé of Barrister. K1 is just an ungrateful and unappreciative person.

When Barrister was alive, K1 used to treat him like a god. But those of us who know how to interpret music know that K1 used to abuse Barrister stylishly with his songs.

When he was alive, I once told Barrister not to tolerate nonsense from K1 but he said he didn’t want it to seem like he was envious of his protégé.

But can you see the result now? Even though I’m not up to Barrister’s level, I am sure that K1 can never disrespect me. Barrister was supposed to perform at the inauguration ceremony of Oba Rilwan Akiolu years ago but because of K1’s closeness to Tinubu, he managed to corner the deal for himself.

Even then, Barrister wasn’t offended.
Now, K1 is saying that all those who have been disagreeing with him on his latest claim are uninformed. So, is he the only wise person? He feels he has gotten to a height where no one else has gotten to.

Meanwhile, all what he has is nothing in the sight of God. He is only known among the Yoruba people, not the Igbos or foreigners.
