Fela Kuti-Look and Laugh

[oscarkim7]

Godlove: "how long does it take to complete a road in nigeria?"

Me: "I dunno...a year?"

Godlove: "nobody knows coz it's never been done."

my friend asked me this question and then had me listed to fela (look and laugh) for the first time...i now own almost all his albums....

[bcstylz]

Man, Fela had a crazy horn section.

[sonofthedestroyer]

@bcstylz,

He had one of the greatest drum kit players in his team also (Tony Allen)

[nickelwindow53]

Fela Kuti influenced Beyonce heavenly on this up and coming 4th album so I am sure we will here alot of his samples on her songs! I cant wait.

[mambosiete]

Fela's music will undoubtedly continue to give back on so many levels. As a producer I can draw from his sound for so much inspiration. As an audio engineer; his timbre is so sincere and warm, I can set it as a bench mark to achieve a warmer sound in the mist of this cold digital domain. As a poet, his words resonate with my life's struggles and my ancestors suffering and sacrifices. From D.R. with love...

[4Quasmusic]

this is spiritual

[Inzion123]

Fela is a legend that will never die like Michael Jackson and Bob Marley

[sky1927]

one of the ever best jams

[sonofthedestroyer]

He reminds me so much of a man i met in Sierra Leone called Kombi

[Bracanas1]

Fela is the king of african music !!!

[phoenixchi28]

fela you are the king of kings - may your soul rest in perfect peace

[MrLegwale64]

This is the track that introduced me to Mr. Kuti. I remember I was busy searching literature for my undergraduate dissertation when I heard this song on a local radio station. Oh, the way the horns, drums, guitars, drama, poetry and backing vocals were used sent a cold chills through my spine and made my skin goose pimples.

To me, this is Fela's best song alongside Confusion Break Bones, Unknown Soldier, Beast of No Nation, Just Like That

With love from Botswana, R.I.P. Baba!

[astiamevu]

[afriqbeau]

He was such an intelligent man...who cares about his lifestyle...he was the best and will always remain the best...BABA fela for life :)
