    I said it LOOKS like it. I didnt say it was so. Besides i was speaking of the dancers. Have you happened to see Fela in concert in NIgeria? If so you would understand what I am referring too. If you hadnt had the true African experience by watching him or his father perform live in Nigeria then I dont expect you to understand.

    umm the man character who plays Fela is Nigerian lol!! His parents are from there but I think he either immigrated or was born in the U.S.
