So I've been sleeping on Fela Kuti

[J-Nice]

No slight to @Raul but it seems as though liking Fela these days is the hipster thing to do now. It's almost as bad as people walking around with Che Guevara and Malcolm X tee shirts. Glad you got put onto him.

I've heard of Fela Kuti years ago but never followed through on checking him out.
Honestly, what made me create this thread was that I watched a documentary on drummer Ginger Baker and Baker performed with Kuti in Nigeria in the 70s.

I ain't even mad at you. I'm just stating an observation

You forgot to add that Haitian racine music.

I like Rasin but the western world isn't ready for it.

I love Bookman, Boukan and Ram when it comes to Rasin. If you got some mp3's to share perhaps i should add you to our haitian music sharing group

Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and Tony Allen are goat instrumentalists. Hypnotic Brass wrote and performed "War" which became the theme song for the cac movie "the hunger games.

LMAO! Trash how? Dude was talking the real on records, and over some crazy beats. Maybe you need better speakers or headphones. Or new ears. But to each his own.
