FELA KUTI - "Teacher Don't Teach Me Nonsense" (1/3)

[MostAncientOne]

Great channel - keeping it real raw and gritty in the Iowa town.

Stopped by to check out a video of some old friends playing (Chicago Afrobeat) and stuck around to check much more funky goodness...

[OVIEJACK]

The only thing the family of fela can do under Femi and Sheun can do is to sign with a good company and re-release this songs so that they don,t go away from the world.Why must they allow it to CRACK at ALL. Long Live FELA.l miss u and will meet u in heaven.

Just look at the master, the leader, and the commander work marshalling his troops @ work on stage, what a man he was!

[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.

[ladyofthemystnin]

this music gives me a similar feeling to that of Salif keita. Definitely check out his music if you like this. I grew up listening to Salif, and always loved him

[reggaeone]

....feeling the music, the vibe, the experience of Fela! LIVE!!



[Garcian]

this is special - we must protect the perceived bad quality of this video. this is Fela, real and raw. We need no HD when it is so pure

[stardj2]

@Garcian well said

[lunaone]

I got chills listening to this. My first Fela experience. :)

[Dubconferencedotorg]

This dude was smashing hoes left and right raw dogg, until he caught that shit and killed himself. then again little was known about the disease then. I miss his music creativity, something that just can't be duplicated......what a genius!!!!

[Twinyo]

Has anyone noticed that the beat in this is the same beat used at the end of the film Coming to America just as they are leaving the wedding??, I heard this song for the first time at a friends wedding and recognised it straight away....they must have used it as inspiration.....enjoy!

In the same vein, of you praise for EKO, the song, "Eko Akete" by Fatai Rolling Dollar should be adopted as the official song for LAGOS!
