    My parents grooved to Fela’s music at Kadadu Nite Club in Lagos in the 70s. My brothers and I snuck to Fela’s Shrine in the 90's to listen to gbedu. Sorrow turned into joy when I went to bury my eldest brother in London. Fela's "Water No Get Enemy" was playing as the casket was lead into the church. A die-hard fan of Abami Eda, he had it, as part of his dying wish, to listen to Fela in death.
    2:20 to 2:50 is a testament that Fela’s music will always remain relevant in any society. For those struggling to understand the relevance of this great icon, start from 10:04 to 10:20. Fela can't help you if you don't get it.
    Anikulapo lives forever!

I watched you LIVE in University of Ife, Ile-Ife in 1989. Listen to your songs and music all the time. You live forever . May you never die. Everything you have said are as true or truer now than when you said and spoke about them. Great souls like you never die. I wish you are around today to witness what is happening in our country and Africa in general but I know you are watching and smiling from above. You were ahead of your time. Baba Fela.

    Fela is already in heaven and I don't think any of our politicians dead or alive will see him again.

    Musical inpiration for the many - Super tight rhythm and horn sections. Plus, the dancers were exotically driven. Big Ups to Fela Kuti and the African 70 for an extraordinary performance.

      What do you mean by "exotically driven"?

    • @maturationsol5775
      @maturationsol5775 Рік тому +3

      @@2methylethel the lady dancers towards the end of the video carried an exotic feel to the performance. Even though those were his wives, story has it that Fela married to save them from persecution. Still, sort of reminded me of performing at a burlesque party many years ago.

    There was a Baltimore Afrobeat Orchestra back in the day that recreated this vibe for a while back in the early 2000s...not on this level, of course. This is one of the greatest UA-cam videos of all time.
