James Chukwueze Obialor, popularly known as WF James Brown, is a Nigerian internet personality, dancer, and cross dresser who was noted in 2018 following a viral video in which he said the phrase "They didn’t caught me" following an arrest by the police.[1][2] He was arrested alongside 46 others for being allegedly gay and spent a month at the Ikoyi Correctional Facility.[3][4] The case against them was later dismissed by a court.[5]
Brown released a single titled "Hey Dulings" in 2021 after a catchphrase he uses to address his fans on social media.[6]
