Description

This work is an analysis of the music and politics of Fela Anikulapo-kuti. It traces Felas development through several stages of political consciousness, awareness and artistic maturity. His evolution from Fela Ransome-Kuti to Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, and from Koola Lobitos to Nigeria 70 to Africa 70 and ultimately Egypt 80. He had spent a life producing music that spoke to the existence of the masses in Africa. He had also spent a tremendous amount of time in court, in prison, in jail and receiving beatings from the army and police. Through it all, he remained true to his vision and his music.
