Both Saheed Osupa and Taye Currency are respected Fuji musicians, but in terms of size, influence, and reach, here’s how they compare:
🎤 Saheed Osupa (King of Fuji Music)
• He is widely regarded as one of the top 3 biggest living Fuji musicians (alongside Wasiu Ayinde K1 and Pasuma).
• Known for his deep lyrical style, heavy albums, and being called the “Mathematics of Fuji.”
• Has a huge following across Nigeria and even abroad.
• He’s more established and has dropped dozens of successful albums.
• Has been in friendly and unfriendly rivalries with other top Fuji acts, which made him more popular.
🎶 Taye Currency (Apesin Fuji)
• Very popular, especially in Ibadan and South-West Nigeria.
• Known for energetic live shows and strong grassroots/street appeal.
• He’s respected, but not on the same national or international scale as Saheed Osupa.
• He shines more in live performance settings, parties, and local shows.
⚖️ Conclusion
• Saheed Osupa is “bigger” overall — more albums, broader recognition, and higher rank in the Fuji hierarchy.
• Taye Currency is strong regionally (especially Ibadan) and has his loyal fan base, but Osupa’s influence is wider.
