I Am the Undisputed King of Fuji — Kollington Fires Back at K1 De Ultimate

Veteran fuji music legend, Alhaji Kollington Ayinla, has firmly asserted that he remains the undisputed king of fuji music, dismissing any notion of rivalry within the genre.

During a recent interview with Agbaletu TV, Kollington addressed questions about his absence at the funeral of the mother of fellow fuji icon, Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as K1 De Ultimate. According to him, he made several attempts to reach K1 around the New Year but received no response, prompting him to back off.

Kollington emphasized that while K1 might hold the traditional title of “head of princes” in Ijebuland, such titles do not translate to leadership in the fuji music scene. “He can be the leader of the princes in his hometown, but not in the fuji industry. Even if he tries to assume that role, it’s not up to him. You can’t be everything. It’s not possible,” he said.

He went on to reaffirm his authority, stating, “When people talk about who leads fuji music—locally or internationally—my name comes up. I am the topmost figure in fuji music. K1 might have the network and the fame, but that doesn’t make him the number one in this genre.”

Kollington also referenced a song by K1 to reinforce his point, questioning why some people avoid the truth. “Some people just like to go around in circles. K1 is blessed, and I thank God for that, but he must not confuse blessings with leadership in fuji music. I remain the authority,” he concluded.

This comes shortly after K1 shared his own journey into music in a video posted by Dele Adeyanju on YouTube. In that video, K1 recounted how his musical career began while he was still in the army, crediting Sikiru as the person who encouraged him to pursue music. He noted that although fuji music existed before him, he and Sikiru played a major role in shaping it, despite facing many

challenges.
