Yoruba Fuji musician, Alhaji Taye Adebisi, popularly known as Taye Currency, has declared that his popular Fuji colleague, Wasiu Alabi aka Pasuma, is his boss, while referring to his counterpart, Saheed Osupa, as his colleague.

Taye Currency made this known in an interview last week Thursday with Akede Ariya, during which he explained his relationship and how he met Pasuma.

According to him, he had never learned the art of Fuji music from Pasuma, but his love for him was unmatched, stressing the protege’s humility as one of the things that struck him.

He noted that he wasn’t in any altercation with Pasuma, alluding that it was just a mere misunderstanding.

“I met Pasuma in 1993, and since then we have been together. I didn’t learn Fuji music from him, I just love him because he is a humble person. It is not that I’m disrespecting him or anything. I wasn’t his drummer or backup singer. He was in Lagos, and I was in Ibadan. So, the controversy between us was caused by fan reactions. We are not fighting. Those who are insulting us are berating and disrespecting us.

“Anybody who has known each other for 30 years, even as a boss and a worker, is liable to have misunderstandings. We are not the first to have a misunderstanding, but it is our fans who are prolonging it. Pasuma is not a troublesome person, nor am I. So I have asked people the questions repeatedly; how did I insult Pasuma, what did I insult Pasuma with?

“Obesere, who is now a leader for us in Fuji music, is my brother. Saheed Osupa, on the other hand, is my colleague; I know him just as a singer. But Pasuma is my boss because I admit it,” he added.

Recall that in October 2024, the Ibadan-born singer disapproved of fans referring to Pasuma as his ‘father’ in the music industry.

He clarified that Pasuma was more like an elder brother to him and emphasised that he can’t father him.

These remarks ignited a flurry of online discussions, with Pasuma’s fans criticising him for the comments.

However, in a new plot twist, when Taye Currency met Pasuma in Mecca on Wednesday, during the ongoing Umrah 2025, he said his words were misinterpreted and expressed regret for any offence caused by his remarks.

In the viral video, he apologised to Pasuma and anyone hurt by his statements regarding the 56-year-old artist.

He acknowledged the ‘Recognition’ hitmaker as his superior, emphasising that he never insulted him.

He affirmed respect for Pasuma and his commitment to him.

Popular Nigerian musician, Asake, has finally reconciled with his father, his daughter and baby mama.

The reconciliation move came after he was called out online for abandoning them after he became rich and famous.

Asake was heavily criticised earlier in 2025, after his baby mama, Adijat accused him of neglect despite standing by him when he had nothing.

In March 2025, Asake’s father, Fatai Odunsi, who is a stroke survivor, also called him out for abandoning him.

Following the backslash from netizens, including some celebrities, Asake reached out to his father and promised to finance his medical bills and also buy him a house.

However, a trending photo of the singer with his father, which surfaced online on Friday morning, signaled a return to harmony.

This came a few days after Asake reunited with his daughter and his baby mama.
