- I engaged the last child of Legendary Yusuf Olatunji, Al-Monsoor Olawale Yusuf Olatunji on my radio show, Agbaletu. He opens up on the research he’s done so far to know the factual history of Nigeria’s Indigenous Sakara music.
Enjoy. - บันเทิง
Baba olatunji is our legend 🙌 ⭐, no doubt, Am at 30s years of age, while my best music is baba olatunji, imagine for an old music to still be raining in this modern life, baba is our legend and his music is ever green, I don't know anybody that does sakara except baba olatunji, R.I.P, Baba olatunji, ....
Baba Legba was a great musician, his music was philosophical, proverbial and educative.
No wonder my late dad loved Yusuf Olatunji so dearly and passed the love unto me…..
Very rich an educative interview. Yusuf Olatunji is fortunate to have a son like him. I am a great fan of Baba Legba. Interestingly, I lived in Abeokuta for about 10 years and I never gave thought to his kind of music but after leaving Abeokuta, during my NYSC, anytime I heard Yusuf Olatunji, I became 'home sick'. Today, i have virtually all his music and i never tire listening to them. His music is rich in Yoruba philosophy, and it's the best native blues imaginable to me.
Decades after Baba Legba's death, his music still rules the air waves and i hope his estate still receives royalties due.
He mentioned his father's music recorded in the 1930s. He should kindly put them on TH-cam for the benefit of the public and also to perpetuate them.
Yusuf olatunji is perfect perfect sakara music than any other.
Monsoor.,....,I really appreciate your courage , boldness and tactical approach to all the questions answered by you..... though I don't know Baba legba but I can see the Baba legba in you.... kudos to you for a job well done ✅......
We really appreciate you people for what you are doing for us by bringing to us the music Legends of 60s and 70s, may God Almighty continue to strengthen you in the mighty name of Jesus. I want to make a request concerning Elder Vasco Da gama if he's still alive and we also want his music on CDs . THANKS
Please could you kindly interview cash madam, Alhaja Adebisi Kubura, about her love for music of baba legba and all, thanks.
Real talk because she is alive now
Baba Yusuf Olatunji is (was) a legend..e gbe fun Baba wa✅
This is impressive am very happy for that story
History of sakara,we get different factions.Many years ago . I was listening to Gboyega lawal and Tunji Olalekan of radio Nigeria. Gboyega lawal said sakara started in Lagos island.One nupe man at agarawu selling animal skins,after a day work and playing goje in the evening and later joined by some boys in the area.later abibu oluwa started from there.Gboyega lawal played some sakara in ibadan.Gboyega lawal was a TV presenter .Tunji Olalekan said the first sakara musician in abeokuta was called kekenke.you can called Tunji Olalekan of radio Nigeria gra ikeja will give you details
The "BIG CAT".... I really loves your knowledge, dexterity, mesmerizing movement of your tongue, because relating an oral history without mixing a word is a great asset I could envisage in you.... Truly I love your sakara navigation, you are really doing a great Job... Kudos...
Thanks my brother 💞.
@@yusufajaoolatunjifoundatio2488 Gbogbo igba ti aba nsoro , Oyeki ama lo lakaiye . Obafemi Awolowo will 82 years in 1991 . According to you Kasumu was 100 plus 1991 . You mean kasumu senior Awolowo with 18 years .
How can I get in touch with this Olotu of Yusuf olatunji. I love Baba Legba.
Any where Yusufu Olatuji plays at the time I was introduced to that music you saw people got chuckled by electricity
Please can we have records for Awolowo, Akintola and Adegbenro
Abibu was the pioneer
How can you say that Babalegba doesn’t have money Babalegba was very very popular and with a lot a lot of people especially in Lagos he was loved Muniratu Abeke spent money and Mercedes he had fans all over Western region
This man is very intelligent. I am just wondering his knowledge of history is impeccable. What a proud son of baba Yusuf Olatunji.
Board members was released in 1970 whereby he took one week to one month before most of us could get the record
Olotu Agbaletu, how can I get in touch with this alagba. I have some questions for him. I love baba Legba.
4 for 4f referring refer FF FF effect reference RR
Great interview Dele, what an intelligent guy. but you should have played 'yegede' released around 1972 before he was born. Baba legba praised his six wives and seven children in the album(side A). Please listen to it. Are they not his biological children? just wondering though ..... I learnt Baba Legba was the first musician to ride Mercedes benz in Nigeria. RIP Pa Yusuf Olatunji Ajao, Baba Tajudeen, awo Durowoju. Kudos to Agbaletu.
Yusuf Ajao Olatunji mentioned only 3 of his biological children while others are his grandchildren.
Baba legba ko ni elegbe, rara.
Yusufu Olatuji is a legend but most people that listen to him were drunker at that time
Monsoor, I am extremely proud of you. You are a very knowledgeable authority on Apala and other folklore genres of music. I am an avid lover of Olatunji’s music courtesy of my late dad. Pls confirm whether or not there exists any video tape of him on stage. If yes, OMG: I will pay to have it. Also share your contact details if you wish. Much love bro!!

But why some people like telling lies, all musician in Nigeria begin to release Lp record in 1970, i can see that they haven't born him by that time,
My exact thought. By the logic of revising history he's not qualified based on his age to be an authority on this issue. The second thing that can qualify him is him sharing his exact sources, when this history was related, where it was related, the circumstance and distinctively verified by other parties other than him.
@Agbaman one thing i dont like about this man is the way he talks like he is an authority in the field. as if those events happened in his front...Dude was three when your dad died....It would be nice if he said based on my finding this is so and so....but instead he is busy talking as if it happened right in his front....For example talking of cash madam, he would have just said 'They said she is a generous woman' or she told me this and that....And to be candid Yusuf Olatunji was far bigger than S. Aka....But in terms of composition or better still infusing deep yoruba adage in composition S. Aka outranks Baba Legba
Baba Legba was an institution by himself
This guy is full of tales, though I like Yusfu Olatunji music but he is full of lies.
I agree with you. Tales is accurate description of his stories, but lies is incorrect. He is a young man proud of his father, and he took all the stories that some people gave him without verification. He is too biased to discuss objectively on the topic.
The only person that verified his story was Ayinla Omowura, because Ayinla omowura confirmed the greatness of Yusuf Olatunji.
If you know he was telling lies. What is the truth. Tell us the truth.
