  • all I know it sounds amazing... ♥

  • @xhashbluntzx Does that surprise you? Remember the colonial institutions Fela opposed are defended by some people - the same people that wanted (but failed) to destroy him. As Fela says, when these rats go bit cat tail, na only trouble dem go get. It's the 1% against the 99%.

  • a dislike? no waaaaaaaaaay

  • @olumart1 so do you mean that when FELA was first starting, nobody was feeling his music?

  • When (AFRICANS HOME AND ABROAD) cats sleep, the rat (EUROPE) go bite his tail. wake up you mighty LIONS.

  • getttit

  • @olumart1

    According to your profile, you're 41.  If Fela was still alive he'd be 73.

  • Yeah nice!

  • bom demais!
