“I mean, people love Afrobeats. Everybody likes that sound now, even in America. Even when we want to collaborate with American artists and we want to do their own sound, they are like, no, no, let’s do Afrobeats.
“Now, the narrative (about Africans) has changed. The respect is there. Not only in music but in fashion, food.”
