Afrobeat singer Seun Kuti has opened up about his unconventional yet humorous approach to parenting, revealing that his favorite pastime at home is “stressing” his daughter before she has the chance to stress him.
In a candid chat with NotJustOk Originals on YouTube, the outspoken musician explained that many parents get overwhelmed by their kids because they don’t “strike first.”
“Most parents don’t know that the reason your kids stress you is because you don’t stress them first,” Seun joked. “These children think that because they are small, they don’t have sense, so they can stress you. Quickly reverse it — be the stress in your child’s life. That’s my most fun thing to do — to just be at home, stress her so she has no time to stress me.”
The singer, who is the youngest son of Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, added that performing on stage gives him a similar kind of thrill and control.
“Other than that, I love being on stage,” he said. “The stage is also like a place I have full control, where I’m also stressing a bunch of people. I take it from the house to the stage. So yeah, that’s me — stresser.”
Seun’s witty take on fatherhood has amused fans online, with many praising his ability to blend humor, honesty, and affection in describing his relationship with his daughter.
