          Nope, pick up that acoustic guitar and start singing. It'll automatically be gold. It's OUR sound after all.

          Lol no. Wale is Nigerian. Afrobeats was invented there. He's spent the last half decade+ making music with guys out there. It's his music.

          That doesn't mean anything. A person's connection to the culture doesn't automatically make the music good.

          Fantano accused Wale of capitalizing on the "Caribbean craze". Im dispelling that. Of course the music itself can be good/bad.

          And that's a valid point, but that's not what Sam and I were joking about, therefore it is irrelevant.

          regardless of if it is his culture (it is) was he making this music before it became hype popular?

          I don't expect you to know everything, but knowing an artist is Nigerian wouldn't you just google Afro beat if you were intrigued?
