album: Fela Kuti - Yellow fever na poi (1972)
Fela Anikulapo-Kuti est le créateur de l'afrobeat, cocktail explosif né de la rencontre entre jazz, soul-funk et high-life, musique traditionnelle d'Afrique de l'ouest. Formé à l'école du Black Power et du panafricanisme, le fils spirituel de Malcolm X et de Kwame Nkrumah a su enflammer le cœur des laissés-pour-compte de la société nigériane et de l'Afrique toute entière, grâce à des chansons écrites en pidgin, le créole anglais des faubourgs de Lagos. En dénonçant la corruption, les dictatures, la main-mise des multinationales, Fela, le « Black President », a essuyé les foudres des dirigeants politiques successifs et de leurs juntes militaires. Humiliations, coups, emprisonnements, tortures ont ponctué le quotidien de ce guerrier du son jusqu'à sa mort en 1997. Depuis, Femi, son fils aîné et Seun, son cadet, ont repris le flambeau spirituel et musical ; imposant leur marque tout en respectant l'héritage familial.

Expensive Shit is the twelfth full-length album by nigerian multi-instrumentalist, musician, composer, pioneer of the Afrobeat music genre, human rights activist, and political maverick Fela Ransome Kuti and his Africa '70 band.
The title of the album refers to an incident in which the Nigerian police tried to arrest Kuti by planting a joint on him. Kuti managed to eat the joint, prompting police to bring him into custody and wait for him to produce the excrement. According to legend he managed to use another inmate's feces and was eventually released.

Fela Anikulapo Kuti (15 October 1938 — 2 August 1997), or simply Fela ([feˈlæ]), was a Nigerian multi-instrumentalist musician and composer, pioneer of Afrobeat music, human rights activist, and political maverick.
Fela was born Olufela Olusegun Oludotun Ransome-Kuti in Abeokuta, Ogun State, Nigeria into a middle-class family. His mother, Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti was a feminist activist in the anti-colonial movement and his father, Reverend Israel Oludotun Ransome-Kuti, a Protestant minister and school principal, was the first president of the Nigerian Union of Teachers. His brothers, Beko Ransome-Kuti and Olikoye Ransome-Kuti, both medical doctors, are well known in Nigeria. Fela was a first cousin to the Nigerian writer and Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka, the first African to win a Nobel Prize for Literature.
Fela was sent to London in 1958 to study medicine but decided to study music instead at the Trinity College of Music. While there, he formed the band Koola Lobitos, playing a fusion of jazz and highlife. In 1960, Fela married his first wife, Remilekun (Remi) Taylor, with whom he would have three children (Femi, Yeni, and Sola). In 1963, Fela moved back to Nigeria, re-formed Koola Lobitos and trained as a radio producer for the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation. He played for some time with Victor Olaiya and his All Stars.

These songs are steeped in the style of highlife jazz that was popular in African clubs, a fiery hybrid of Latin jazz, rhythm and blues, even calypso. With most of the vocals sung in his native Nigerian, the music is bubbling over with punchy brass arrangements, simmering percussion, and bass grooves that mortar the sound. Highlights include an ode to Nigerian nightlife, "Highlife Time," and "Omuti Tide," with Fela's tongue-in-cheek phrasing of "When the Saints Go Marching In" during his trumpet solo. The '69 L.A. Sessions find Fela & Nigeria '70 fleshing out the sound that would bring him acclaim and popularity. Ensconced in the knowledge of the American black struggle of the time from a female companion in Los Angeles, his approach went from bright and snappy to contemplative and hypnotic without compromising the groove. His lyrical themes became more political in scope as heard in the tune "Viva Nigeria," in which he describes the strife of Nigerian civil war. Other parts of the African struggle, which, in his eyes, closely mirrored the plight of the African-American, were explored in the musical themes of "Wayo" and "Witchcraft." A tender side is shown in the achingly beautiful "Lover," a slow groover inspired by the lover's rock style of reggae that was popular in Jamaica throughout the mid- to late 1960s. The percolating guitar lines and R&B; inflected style of "Funky Horn" feeds off of James Brown's instrumental output of the late '60s. Essential listening." Review by Douglas Siwek in Allmusic.com

Expensive Shit is the twelfth full-length album by nigerian multi-instrumentalist, musician, composer, pioneer of the Afrobeat music genre, human rights activist, and political maverick Fela Ransome Kuti and his Africa '70 band. The title of the album refers to an incident in which the Nigerian police tried to arrest Kuti by planting a joint on him. Kuti managed to eat the joint, prompting police to bring him into custody and wait for him to produce the excrement. According to legend he managed to use another inmate's feces and was eventually released. -

"A new reissue that unearths a series of previously unreleased sides recorded between 1964 and 1968 with Fela's first band, Koola Lobitos. These songs are steeped in the style of highlife jazz that was popular in African clubs, a fiery hybrid of Latin jazz, rhythm and blues, even calypso. With most of the vocals sung in his native Nigerian, the music is bubbling over with punchy brass arrangements, simmering percussion, and bass grooves that mortar the sound. Highlights include an ode to Nigerian nightlife, "Highlife Time," and "Omuti Tide," with Fela's tongue-in-cheek phrasing of "When the Saints Go Marching In" during his trumpet solo. The '69 L.A. Sessions find Fela & Nigeria '70 fleshing out the sound that would bring him acclaim and popularity. Ensconced in the knowledge of the American black struggle of the time from a female companion in Los Angeles, his approach went from bright and snappy to contemplative and hypnotic without compromising the groove. His lyrical themes became more political in scope as heard in the tune "Viva Nigeria," in which he describes the strife of Nigerian civil war. Other parts of the African struggle, which, in his eyes, closely mirrored the plight of the African-American, were explored in the musical themes of "Wayo" and "Witchcraft." A tender side is shown in the achingly beautiful "Lover," a slow groover inspired by the lover's rock style of reggae that was popular in Jamaica throughout the mid- to late 1960s. The percolating guitar lines and R&B; inflected style of "Funky Horn" feeds off of James Brown's instrumental output of the late '60s. Essential listening."

AFRICA 70 - Let's Start Fela Kuti, Africa 70 & Ginger Baker
Buy This Album Originally recorded in 1971 and 1978 by Fela Kuti’s band, Africa 70, with the addition of former Cream drummer Ginger Baker, this album contains 4 songs plus a bonus track 16-minute drum duet between Baker and Africa 70’s drummer Tony Allen recorded at the 1978 Berlin Jazz Festival.

Fela Kuti & Egypt 80 Live - 1986 - Austin Coliseum
Fela Anikulapo Kuti and Egypt 80 performing live at the Austin City Coliseum in Austin, Tx on November 12, 1986. This was recorded to VHS from a channel called Austin Community Television (ACTV), which is no longer around. Not sure if this footage exists anywhere else online and I haven't been able to find much info about the show so this tape seems to be a pretty rare artifact. In addition to how good the performance is, I also have to note the DIY graphics; some of that stuff is pretty cool. This was taped back in the day and transferred digitally so there is some pretty bad glitching in the beginning that I couldn't get rid of, but it gets better after the first few seconds. Tracks: 1- "Just Like That" (0:00) 2- "TDTMN (Teacher, Don't Teach Me Nonsense)" (4:30) -

Originally recorded in 1971 and 1978 by Fela Kuti’s band, Africa 70, with the addition of former Cream drummer Ginger Baker, this album contains 4 songs plus a bonus track 16-minute drum duet between Baker and Africa 70’s drummer Tony Allen recorded at the 1978 Berlin Jazz Festival.
Let’s Start: ‘Let us start what we’ve come into the room to do’ is telling it as it is — graphic explicit sex. Sung in Yoruba with some broken English explanations, Fela calls on his partner in the room to get on with it, ‘don’t play the innocent…let’s start! Take off your clothes! Let’s start!’. The recording has Ginger Baker, of the former English pop group ‘Cream’ playing live as guest drummer on some tracks like Let’s Start, in place of Tony Allen, the regular drum player in Fela’s Africa 70 band. The Album titled ‘Live with Ginger Baker’ was recorded in the sixteen track mobile studio Ginger Baker sold to Polygram Nigeria in 1976.
Black Man’s Cry: Black man’s cry is about identity. ‘I am black and proud’ Fela sings in Yoruba, ‘Who says Black is not beautiful! Bring that person out, let me see!’ — he challenges, ‘There is nothing as beautiful as the black skin! Look at me! Look at me very well! There is nothing as beautiful as the black skin! Look at me very well!’. It is a song to rid the black mind of inferiority complex, particularly Africans who use chemical products to bleach their skin, or Africans who feel inferior to the White folks.
Ye Ye De Smell: Ye ye de smell is about people getting what they deserve-reaping what you sow. If you flirt with another person’s wife, you shouldn’t feel bad if people do the same to you. Literally meaning: bullshit stinks. It implies that if you give people bullshit, you should not be surprised if you get the same back from others.
Egbe Mi O (Carry Me I Want To Die): “Egbe Me” in Yoruba language means: Carry me. In this song, Fela is singing about the different kinds of things that happen to you while you dance. How could you go into trance while dancing? How in a state of musical trance, the traditional beads women wear under their skirts break without the woman noticing. How a man’s hat would fall of his head while dancing without him noticing. All kinds of things happen to you doing the dance — but you are not alone! ‘…be ke iwo nikan ko’. Fela ends this track with a general chorus calling everybody together with the band: Egbe Mi O!

Fela Kuti Vs. De La Soul - Fela Soul (2011) [Full Album]
"What do you get when you put together afrobeat legend Fela Kuti and rap pioneers De La Soul? You get Fela Soul; musical tapestry created by Amerigo Gazaway. More than just a clever title, Fela Soul is an 8-track, 33 minute journey into the world of afrobeat rhythms, funky horn riffs, and classic hip-hop gems. Using dozens of hand-picked samples from the Nigerian instrumentalist and political figure Fela Kuti, and 8 carefully-chosen acapellas from the Native Tongue rap trio De La Soul, Amerigo seamlessly intertwines the two into something completely new and original."

Fela Kuti on Colonial mentality
Fela Kuti interview subtitled. I made this edit for my high school students in Los Angeles. I subtitled the video so that they would clearly understand what he is saying. I first heard Fela as a young teenager and learned a lot from his songs. In this song Fela is being Sarcastic of the Democracy (new Christianity) which Europeans (U.S.A) use to justify their continued colonialism just as they are doing in Iraq and Afghanistan. I also changed the word F--- and narrowed the image as to not show the cigarette so that I can show it in school. Thank you for all you comments -
The Music and Message of Fela Kuti
Fela Kuti was the main figure in Nigerian populair music. He has been in prison and tortured several times because of his criticism of the Nigerian government and the sell-out of African wisdom and religion, due to Evangelical and Christian missionary activities. Africans got their own Religion which is not inferior to Christianity and Islam. In his songs he criticised corruption and the exploitation of Africa by Multinationals like ITT. -

FELA KUTI SPEAKS
FELA SPEAKS The year 2010 saw the extraordinary explosion of the brand name FELA with the re-issue of his life's work and the media success of the musical from Broadway to a London theatre. With all the euphoria around FELA, one major aspect missing is the emphasis on the man and what he stood for. From reports, Bill T. Jones did a great job with the musical from an aesthetic point of view however his representation of the man has nothing to do with Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. Fela (in the musical) is portrayed as championing polygamy which was not the reason for his mass marriage, and projected as an indecisive man running to his mother for assurance and inspiration -- this also was not Fela to those of us who knew him. Without any prejudice to the on-going legal battle, I believe Bill T. ... -

The musical style of Felá is called afrobeat, a style he largely created, which is a complex fusion of Jazz, Funk, Ghanaian/Nigerian High-life, psychedelic rock, and traditional West African chants and rhythms. Afrobeat also borrows heavily from the native "tinker pan" African-style percussion that Kuti acquired while studying in Ghana with Hugh Masekela, under the ...

FELA SPEAKS
The year 2010 saw the extraordinary explosion of the brand name FELA with the re-issue of his life's work and the media success of the musical from Broadway to a London theatre. With all the euphoria around FELA, one major aspect missing is the emphasis on the man and what he stood for. From reports, Bill T. Jones did a great job with the musical from an aesthetic point of view however his representation of the man has nothing to do with Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.
Fela (in the musical) is portrayed as championing polygamy which was not the reason for his mass marriage, and projected as an indecisive man running to his mother for assurance and inspiration -- this also was not Fela to those of us who knew him. Without any prejudice to the on-going legal battle, I believe Bill T. Jones and the producers of the musical were hoodwinked (like most readers) into believing Carlos Moore with his self proclaimed "authorized biography of Africa's musical genius".
My book 'Fela, Why Blackman Carry Shit' too was published with a written authorization from Fela and I did not portray Fela as an indecisive man nor sell it as THE authorized biography despite going to jail on countless occasions with Fela as part of our struggle. As a Fela biographer and Egypt 80 administrator at the time 'This Bitch of Life' was written and published (see page 148 new edition), I can say with certitude that Carlos Moore does not have any exclusivity to that claim of "authorized biographer" and I challenge anyone to say the contrary. In fact, Fela was not pleased with the way he was portrayed in the book and it was one of the reasons he broke contact with Carlos Moore until his demise in 1997.
With the arrival of the year 2011, and the expectation of the REAL explosion world-wide of Fela the man and what he stood for, we in Radio Shrine believe it is our duty as N°1 Federator of Afrobeat culture to shed light where Fela is concerned from our authentic knowledge of THE MAN. Thanks to archaeological excavations - the buried treasures of antiquity can again revisit the sun. In the same light - thanks to audio cassette from the Department of Political Science, University of Lagos Nigeria achieves Fela speaks again to us all.
You can listen to him in an interview backstage where he talked about his background, his music not for entertainment, and those apart from his immediate family whom he held in high esteem. Also you can listen to extracts of his songs 'ODOO' Overtake Don Overtake Overtake live and his unpublished work 'BBC' Big Blind Country. Finally, have a "ball" with him in a live "yabbis" session, all of these from the Pepple Street Africa Shrine in Ikeja. This video is first of a three part series dedicated to the unsung heroes of our struggle in Kalakuta Republic - all those young men and women who alongside Fela suffered consistent brutalities and arbitrarily jailed by the Nigerian police and army.
To our French speaking audience please bear with us, as we are doing everything possible to bring you Fela's words -- soon as the translations are ready.
While wishing you all a happy new year, we implore you dear folks to please pass the message!

Tracklist:

Fela Kuti (born Olufela Olusegun Oludotun Ransome-Kuti; 15 October 1938 – 2 August 1997), also known as Fela Anikulapo Kuti or simply Fela, was a Nigerian multi-instrumentalist, musician, composer, pioneer of the Afrobeat music genre, human rights activist, and political maverick.
The musical style of Felá is called afrobeat, a style he largely created, which is a complex fusion of Jazz, Funk, Ghanaian/Nigerian High-life, psychedelic rock, and traditional West African chants and rhythms. Afrobeat also borrows heavily from the native "tinker pan" African-style percussion that Kuti acquired while studying in Ghana with Hugh Masekela, under the uncanny Hedzoleh Soundz. The importance of the input of Tony Allen (Fela's drummer of twenty years) in the creation of Afrobeat cannot be overstated. Fela once famously stated that "without Tony Allen, there would be no Afrobeat".
Afrobeat is characterized by a fairly large band with many instruments, vocals, and a musical structure featuring jazzy, funky horn sections. A riff-based "endless groove" is used, in which a base rhythm of drums, shekere, muted West African-style guitar, and melodic bass guitar riffs are repeated throughout the song. Commonly, interlocking melodic riffs and rhythms are introduced one by one, building the groove bit-by-bit and layer-by-layer. The horn section then becomes prominent, introducing other riffs and main melodic themes.
Fela's band was notable for featuring two baritone saxophones, whereas most groups were using only one of this instrument. This is a common technique in African and African-influenced musical styles, and can be seen in Funk and Hip hop. Fela's bands at times even performed with two bassists at the same time both playing interlocking melodies and rhythms. There were always two or more guitarists. The electric West African style guitar in Afrobeat bands are paramount, but are used to give basic structure, playing a repeating chordal/melodic statement, riff, or groove.
Some elements often present in Fela's music are the call-and-response within the chorus and figurative but simple lyrics. Fela's songs were also very long, at least 10–15 minutes in length, and many reaching the 20 or even 30 minutes, while some unreleased tracks would last up to 45 minutes when performed live. This was one of many reasons that his music never reached a substantial degree of popularity outside Africa. His LP records frequently had one 30-minute track per side. Typically there is an instrumental "introduction" jam part of the song, perhaps 10–15 minutes long, before Fela starts singing the "main" part of the song, featuring his lyrics and singing, in which the song continues for another 10–15 minutes. Therefore, on some recordings one may see his songs divided into two parts, Part 1 (instrumental) followed by the rest, Part 2.
His songs were mostly sung in Nigerian pidgin English, although he also performed a few songs in the Yoruba language. Fela's main instruments were the saxophone and the keyboards, but he also played the trumpet, electric guitar, and took the occasional drum solo. Fela refused to perform songs again after he had already recorded them, which also hindered his popularity outside Africa.
Fela was known for his showmanship, and his concerts were often quite outlandish and wild. He referred to his stage act as the "Underground" Spiritual Game. Fela attempted making a movie but lost all the materials to the fire that was set to his house by the military government in power. Kuti thought that art, and thus his own music, should have political meaning.
It is of note that as Fela's musical career developed, so too did his political influence, not only in his home country of Nigeria, not just throughout Africa, but throughout the world. As his political influence grew, the religious aspect of his musical approach grew. Fela was a part of an Afro-Centric consciousness movement that was founded on and delivered through his music. Fela, in an interview found in Hank Bordowitz's "Noise of the World", states, "Music is supposed to have an effect. If you're playing music and people don't feel something, you're not doing shit. That's what African music is about. When you hear something, you must move. I want to move people to dance, but also to think. Music wants to dictate a better life, against a bad life. When you're listening to something that depicts having a better life, and you're not having a better life, it must have an effect on you."

Fela Kuti (born Olufela Olusegun Oludotun Ransome-Kuti; 15 October 1938 – 2 August 1997), also known as Fela Anikulapo Kuti or simply Fela, was a Nigerian multi-instrumentalist, musician, composer, pioneer of the Afrobeat music genre, human rights activist, and political maverick.
The musical style of Felá is called afrobeat, a style he largely created, which is a complex fusion of Jazz, Funk, Ghanaian/Nigerian High-life, psychedelic rock, and traditional West African chants and rhythms. Afrobeat also borrows heavily from the native "tinker pan" African-style percussion that Kuti acquired while studying in Ghana with Hugh Masekela, under the uncanny Hedzoleh Soundz. The importance of the input of Tony Allen (Fela's drummer of twenty years) in the creation of Afrobeat cannot be overstated. Fela once famously stated that "without Tony Allen, there would be no Afrobeat".
Afrobeat is characterized by a fairly large band with many instruments, vocals, and a musical structure featuring jazzy, funky horn sections. A riff-based "endless groove" is used, in which a base rhythm of drums, shekere, muted West African-style guitar, and melodic bass guitar riffs are repeated throughout the song. Commonly, interlocking melodic riffs and rhythms are introduced one by one, building the groove bit-by-bit and layer-by-layer. The horn section then becomes prominent, introducing other riffs and main melodic themes.
Fela's band was notable for featuring two baritone saxophones, whereas most groups were using only one of this instrument. This is a common technique in African and African-influenced musical styles, and can be seen in Funk and Hip hop. Fela's bands at times even performed with two bassists at the same time both playing interlocking melodies and rhythms. There were always two or more guitarists. The electric West African style guitar in Afrobeat bands are paramount, but are used to give basic structure, playing a repeating chordal/melodic statement, riff, or groove.
Some elements often present in Fela's music are the call-and-response within the chorus and figurative but simple lyrics. Fela's songs were also very long, at least 10–15 minutes in length, and many reaching the 20 or even 30 minutes, while some unreleased tracks would last up to 45 minutes when performed live. This was one of many reasons that his music never reached a substantial degree of popularity outside Africa. His LP records frequently had one 30-minute track per side. Typically there is an instrumental "introduction" jam part of the song, perhaps 10–15 minutes long, before Fela starts singing the "main" part of the song, featuring his lyrics and singing, in which the song continues for another 10–15 minutes. Therefore, on some recordings one may see his songs divided into two parts, Part 1 (instrumental) followed by the rest, Part 2.
His songs were mostly sung in Nigerian pidgin English, although he also performed a few songs in the Yoruba language. Fela's main instruments were the saxophone and the keyboards, but he also played the trumpet, electric guitar, and took the occasional drum solo. Fela refused to perform songs again after he had already recorded them, which also hindered his popularity outside Africa.
Fela was known for his showmanship, and his concerts were often quite outlandish and wild. He referred to his stage act as the "Underground" Spiritual Game. Fela attempted making a movie but lost all the materials to the fire that was set to his house by the military government in power. Kuti thought that art, and thus his own music, should have political meaning.
It is of note that as Fela's musical career developed, so too did his political influence, not only in his home country of Nigeria, not just throughout Africa, but throughout the world. As his political influence grew, the religious aspect of his musical approach grew. Fela was a part of an Afro-Centric consciousness movement that was founded on and delivered through his music. Fela, in an interview found in Hank Bordowitz's "Noise of the World", states, "Music is supposed to have an effect. If you're playing music and people don't feel something, you're not doing shit. That's what African music is about. When you hear something, you must move. I want to move people to dance, but also to think. Music wants to dictate a better life, against a bad life. When you're listening to something that depicts having a better life, and you're not having a better life, it must have an effect on you."
