Speaking to UK National TV, Fuse disclosed that when he got to the United Kingdom he realized the perception about Africa is so bad that he tried to disassociate himself from the African race.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s funny, how much I have grown out of the perception Africa is inferior. When I got to the UK, I realized that the perception of Africa was very negative. It was so intense that as I was growing up, I did everything that would make fit into the British lifestyle,\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

He proceeded to say that, as he grew older he realized he was born an African and should embrace his roots instead of trying to shy away from who he is.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut as I grew older, I got to understand who I\u2019m supposed to be. So I\u2019m on a mission to change that perception. I want young black people to be proud of who they are.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cNow things are changing, people are now embracing who they are and it\u2019s a good thing,\u201d he added.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The ‘Azonto’ hitmaker took to his Instagram page to share some portion of his interview with channel 14.<\/p>\n
