FELA, FOR- EVER- LIVE- AFRICA, God should released him from heaven to nigeria for atleast three months.

[EkereGbe]

FUCK THA  " P-O-L-I-C-E ", FUCK THE N.Y.P.D and The L.A.P.D FUCK THE NIGERIAN POLICE FORCE. and All the POLICE FORCES all over the world. Great song from a great man, an Icon, a man who fought and died for what he believed in. May God bless your Memory, bro. Give it up for F-E-L-A , Y'all.

excellent job, aupieddumar !

can't stop watching your vid fitting together with this greatest of all hymns like mother and child.

thank you from the bottom of my heart !

[RATM44]

This song doesn't deal with the fight of 'Sans-Papiers'. It deals with police and army oppression during people demonstrations.

[Zzozze]

You're right, the real goal is not to get papers to those who've fleed brutality and oppression. The real find would be to bring and end to this oppression, get the thiefes,oil and pharma multi (and corrupted US representatives) jailed in Den Haag!

So these poeple would have the choice to stay safely home!

Then, the quality of the video is real good.

well done aupieddumur.

[gorgeoushammer]

nicely made video. one of the greatest political songs ever. i wish more people knew about this guy's music.

[Mark999999999]

Great!

[Ibunshi]

love this track!

[asyoucansee]

It's a song about police brutality in Nigeria and Nigerian cowardliness. Brutality meets Cowardliness, no contest. I will post the lyrics.

Fela lived in America in the '60s and learned the music here before returning to Nigeria. I'm sure he was influenced by the R&B of the time, as well as the jazz.

[demarrow]

u get it wrong dont say wgar u dunno, fela studied music in London and formed his first band there, they moved back to Nigeria for a while before Travelling to America to pursue international airplay and so so, neither did the american immigration gave them much access ux they ame without a working permit

Check out the 1967 album 'African Party' by Ginger Johnson & his African Messengers. One of the horns players on this album is none other than Fela, who studied with Ginger who was a Nigerian master drummer, resident in London throughout the 50s & '60s (including supplying the drums for the Stones on Sympathy for the devil at hyde park in '69) - this is possibly the first Afro-Beat album, before the 'genre' was so named.

BABA FELA REST IN PEACE !

[mf9000paris]

OK I get it... Africans asking for authorization to live in France. With a song about demonstrations in Africa.

[mf9000paris]

It's in Paris... But why someone would put those pictures on this music, I dunno. Both are great anyaway.

[uzybaby29]

[bulleh44]

this has a james brown feel all over it. i like how you can hear elements of femi in african-american music... then you can hear african-american elements in his work to. this is old african funk in your truck.

[MasterClipEditor]

Two men across an ocean feeling the same thing
