Singer Stanley Omah Didia, popularly known as Omah Lay, has stated that Afrobeats is mainly concentrated in Lagos and is dominated by the Yoruba ethnic group.

Supporting his argument, Omah Lay noted that the late Fela Kuti, a Yoruba man, was the pioneer of the genre.

The singer mentioned this during the listening party for his forthcoming album, Clarity of Mind.

“Afrobeats is mainly Lagos. It’s mainly Yorubas. Fela Kuti is the pioneer, we all know that, and he’s Yoruba. I’m from PH, and you have to break into Lagos. There are only two people from PH that you know; Burna Boy & Me,” he said.

Giving his fans a glimpse into his past relationship, Omah Lay recalled feeling embarrassed by a relationship he believed would develop.

“While Justin Bieber was performing at the Grammys, I was having a breakup right inside, an embarrassing moment. The relationship was only two months, by the way. It was a relationship where I thought I was going to have a baby. I wasn’t present at the Grammys, I didn’t even enjoy anything,” he said.

Omah Lay was recently nominated for a Grammy Award alongside Davido for their song ‘With You’. According to him, the event prompted him to adopt a new hairstyle.

“I went to LA for the Grammys, I got a barber to prepare for the show, and he messed me up. I got another barber who was like the best barber in LA, and his price was exaggerated to fix me up. He came, and he completely f**k me over,” he said.
