Nigerian singer Balogun Afolabi Oluwaloseyi, popularly known as Seyi Vibez, has sparked a lot of online buzz following a recent video of him that surfaced from the 2025 BET Awards in London, UK.
The “Pressure” hitmaker was seen holding an interview with a foreign journalist, surprising many fans. Known for rarely giving interviews, some critics have suggested this is due to his perceived limited English skills, often highlighted in his music. However, the new clip challenges this assumption.
During the interview, Seyi Vibez spoke confidently in English, showcasing a level of fluency that impressed viewers and triggered various reactions online.
When asked about key figures pioneering Afrobeats in the United States, he credited prominent artists such as Rema, Burna Boy, Wizkid, and Davido — including himself in the list.
Seyi Vibez also shared his musical aspirations, expressing a desire to collaborate with Kanye West and Playboi Carti. Additionally, when the interviewer mentioned Davido’s father, Dr. Adedeji Adeleke, and his influence on Nigeria’s electricity sector, Seyi described Davido as a genuinely good person.
Though measured and careful with his words, the interview sparked a mix of responses. Some fans applauded his improved English skills, even claiming he outshines fellow artist Asake, while others joked that his language barriers limited his full expression.
