I flew from Amsterdam to Lagos in 1994 and saw Fela play a live concert in a club there.. words can not explain how amazing it was.
Ja echt goed toch?
Baba the nonsense
Shook his hand after a show once in his “shrine”. He was exhausted and came to the back of the hall where he plonked in a chair with his arms hanging from the back rest.
I approached. No bodyguards. He was a true man of the people. Sitting, watching the stage, with a huge crowd behind him. Totally exhausted.
“Good evening sir (it was early in the morning hit who cared 😎) can I just please shake your hand?” I asked the great man.
Until just now, I never understood his response. His response was “Why? Why? Why? Why?” Opening his huge palms and giving me a sting handshake.
Why? = “Why would you even ask, just walk up and stretch your hand…”
He was a true man of the people.
One of a kind. True legend. True son of Africa.

Forgot to add: This happened in May 1987. 35 years ago…. I was 24 years old 😃😎✌🏾
Powerful FIGURE at the intersection of CULTURE; PAN-Africanism; Cultural Identity and Afro-BEAT GENRE Catalyst!!
I can imagine
07/03/2023 As an African I find myself crying listening to his message. Nothing as changed over 40 years later! RIP legend.
But it's changing now!
@@dominiqpowell37 what's changing?
It will never change till we all rise above the "mama dey for house,papa dey for house,I get one son,I no wan die,I no wan kwench* to take back our country from these scammers called politicians who sadly have became worse than our past military dictators.
I'm so proud to call fela my uncle to think that my dad was around him at the start of such an impactful time in music so crazy ... I'll always be so grateful to have his music as a connection to my roots
U blessed 🙌
He's my uncle too. Yey! Cuzzy!
He is all our uncle na. Who no fit claim am
Felabration
As a Ghanaian living in New Zealand to come across my Fela Kuti being played in a Pub 2018 made me cry for Joy. This just proves how universal our brother was and still is.!
suffering is universal whether regardless of race or color
@@qwer8907 are you saying that FK's music was just about suffering?
Thanks.... I'm in Baltimore Maryland and enjoy the best moments listening to Fela music... Reminiscing my childhood memories in Nigeria
@@qwer8907 you must be an imbecile.
Ghana...the place of refuge for Nigerians
I used to crying whenever I listened to this music as a growing up man.. He's the most intelligent Man that ever come out of Nigeria in terms of honesty.. How I wish He was born in our Generation.. He's an Icon born in a wrong generation.. #RIP..FELA
Babatundey You are very correct, he should have been in this our generation. May his soul rest perfect peace.
He was born in the correct generation. Maybe you were born in the wrong generation. Actually you were!!!
God knew what he was doing.
Lol so you think our generation that thinks wizkid and davido are musicians deserves fela??? Go home you re drunk😂😂😂😂 millennials smh
I'm a 17 year old Irish teenager and I am so so happy I discovered Fela and afrobeat in general. a spiritual experience.
19 year old Mexican and I just discovered this glooooory of music, where I live underground/hippie musicians play this type of music at night while people are out on the streets drinking wine
I'm a black cis-gender white girl and I just found out about your channel
enchantrand-esque I'm a homosexual white straight man
Insane Gaming
You even got your username from my reputation. You are a hoaxy cloaksy shame of a username.
how are you understanding his accent?...I'm a Nigerian can't really hear some of the things he says clearly
African leaders should be made to listen and meditate on Fela's music maybe their thinking will change
john india Heavy Hitters are usually real rich and power-hungry like the ones who sold slaves for iron bars to mine copper and minerals and diamonds and gold sold them to Dutch British Spanish system to the South and now we're nowhere is the scapegoat like the South in America the American South C slaves were slaves before they even got on this boat and were tied down and shackle by the way remember weather for we fought and won her independence America they were British French and Spanish colonies fighting over territory and they had slaves Linhart only came down for a power grab it's they had thought that war to free slaves they wouldn't be in the field up until the early 1970s Carpetbaggers didn't only take land they took place call to sharecroppers treating them even more reason to worry
Only Ben Murray Bruce listen to this kanna songs..
I hear them in some of his words, and he simply calls it common sense...
No chance, all despots, as proved over many years. lining their own pockets and bringing ruin to African countries.
All world leaders should my brother
mushishamandawa Absolutely, it's a troubled world we are living in.
"Democrazy" "Crazy Demonstration" Holy shit! That was as deep as the Atlantic Ridge. I've never heard lyrics like these before. Incredible.
BubbleManxx, yes Bubblemannx you are rising as your name suggests...
BubbleManxx the rasta's in jamaica have incorporated the same type of play on words,
Can't tell if sarcasm.
.."crazy demonstration, demonstration of craze,".. legendary stuff
@@CityKid415 James, make an example please!
they said he was mad and every now and then we find that those who said he was mad are the real mad ones. fela for ever.
Plenty of dem things, i don't sing about it
Those that tag baba as a mad man are afraid of his intelligence because he is pro pan Africa
No normal person can change the world you have to be in a certain unique state to have that capacity that is beyond the societies limits and expectations.... that is within us all and it's a choice....as for the level of intelligence that the Man had...was out of this universe... long live Fela ✌🏾
k
every true artist is mad, the brain is artistically imbalanced in favor of creativity
To the family of mr Fela kuty ( a man with eagle eyes ) don't let no body through word at u to make u be silent.
ur Dad was not the first man to introduce Ganja to Nigerians nor the only man who has many women ,comi g ti analyzed his life and other Afican / Nigerian men Fela was honest and opened in all his ways every child and man knew what he was upto ( doing) .
most of men have many girlfriends in their closet even those whose religion permits them to married only one wife .
what is spoiling Nigerian youth is poverty , injustice ,tribalism ,Religion intolerance ,bad Roads ,lack of equipments in our Hospitals lack of democricy etc ..Fela saw what was coming and he was oreaching and singing it ,but some of us where blind to see and some where deaf to hear, can any listen to his music today and tell me that mr Fela Kuty was mad or singing because he has just finished smoking Ganja or he was singing the truth that was and it is now and even worse then tha t time. . Finally he who has ni sin let him cast the stone on Fela or continue to cast stone .
Fela is a hero since he can smoke Ganja and still stand for the truth and worn us and those of us who are not can not sense the Danger then we may as well smoke it .
he has many women and children and was able to show them lovre and keep them together, and teach them about their culture and to be hard working and law abiding citizen , while those who didnot smoke have secret children ,secret wives,houses that their money (salary )cannot buy . money that they cannot account for on hw they make then smoking Ganja seems ti be better then having a sober mind .
lets' stop the hypocrisy and face reality ,Fela Kuty should be one of our great Heroes because he do what he preach his life was very transparent .
he was nit a christian nir a Muslim,But his life was an open book that all can read ,but how about us who are casting stone at him and his children.? if the night should turn into day ,many of us will run away and wish the ground could ooen to hide ⁿŘ⅝
law wages ,
The man was an absolute legend, inexplicable, beyond words, we didn't appreciate that he was like a teacher/prophet amongst us in Nigeria then. His songs of 30years ago are ever so relevant even today. His warnings about a few Judases amongst us being used by the colonialist, and those traitors getting mega rich, and perpetuating the impoverishment of the populace; still on going 40 years on.
Sun re omo won ni Egba Alake, a giant amongst the GOD forsaken dwarfs that has ever ruled that joke of a country. No electricity in 2015 still, imagine?!!!.
You're absolutely right.. We never appreciate his talents as we suppose to.. 50years from now, his music will still be relevant in Nigeria and Africa at large 🙏🏿
.
OLA. ODUS m
I couldn't have put it better.
Mr. Ola...Haha... It's 2018 and there's still no electricity in Nigeria. Infact this is the worst I've ever seen Nigeria been in since when I was born in 1992 in this country. We are really just suffering and smiling!
"Democracy" = "Them are crazy" = Demonstration of Craze. As far as Baba was concerned, we (Africa) practiced "crazy demonstration" not Democracy. Salute to you oh Legend!
DemoCracy= Demon Crazy
@@elizabethbeth-davidysrael1623 😄
Spiritual. Speaks to the soul. The world is better because you passed through here Mr Kuti. Now I need to disowned my Nigerian friends whom I've known for 15 years and have robbed me of your angelic sounds by not introducing your music to me sooner in life. They are not true friends i've come to realised.
Forgive them maybe it wasn't time for you to know him
Aptly captured the mediocrity surrounding Nigeria democracy, politics and leadership. Rest in perfect peace Sir Fela
Starts with toe tapping and head bobbing then moves up your leg giving you chill bumps and before you know, it grabs you by the very soul. A truly remarkable man not to mention an extraordinary musician/artist.Thank you, Fela.
👍❤
I don't know how I find this, but I love it. So glad my first journey to Africa (Ethiopia) next July made me look for African music. Best wishes to all Africans. I pray for a bright African future. Greetings from the Netherlands!
Correct man!
Jurjen Van Der Laan
Thanks for ypur prayer ans wishes Jurjen!!! Good man...thanks a lot!!
Thank you for your love for Africa. Be blessed!
Gelukkig zit je goed.

Me, love it
I love him
I AM STILL LISTENING.
Me, seen fell in Glastonbury about 1980/81 not sure
King we Nigerians love you forever. Rest well our baba
The legend of all time, Fela that better than all Nigeria politicians!
Knowledge is being fought against by eliminating the righteous Messangers amongst us by the unseen wicked forces. Hold on firmly to the rope of God . Peace to all mi brethren in Africa!
Wivth Love from Somalia!!
so true
preach
dem are crazy
right there is the truth
psq
I wonder what music I have been listening to. I need new friends. Love it here. 😜
I'm overwhelmed... Let's get down to the underground spiritual game. FELA LIVES FOREVER!!!!
I stumbled upon this magnificent musicians music recently, and have become captive in a way that is unexplainable. I'm African-American with an acquired appetite for unique music from around the world. This is Fly.
Bobby Marsh You're welcome to Fela's world. It's an eureka moment for you the way it was for me. This man makes a breathtaking kind of unique music. You're sooner gonna find out.
I grew up listening to fela's music, all thanks to my dad n our neighbors. Now I'm gonna make sure I bless my children with it too.
What a blessing
i had the privelege of seeing Fela and the Africa 70 perform live. It was several decades ago. The repetitive beat, incessant rhythmn, shamanic dancing, chanting, full pulsing stage and the thick ganga filled air made for an intoxicating experience. I had to leave after several hours as the never ending pulse was sending me into a trance (which may have been the intention) It was an awesome experience - and not in the west coast teen, gee, fuckwit sort of awesome - but in a total, all encompassing experience. Not necessarily my most enjoyable concert experience but one of the most unforgettable.
Fela is a legend that every wise person that is really concerned about Nigeria and Africa should celebrate
Fela used his musical talents to fight injustice; from a white man or black man. He never proclaimed to be perfect, obviously from his personal life. He is an icon and an idol to many who don't know one end of the sax to the other.
The prophet that was never appreciated lives forever in our minds as the things he sang about become reality in our dear nation-- Rest In Peace Sir🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Africa sound is the best!!
I've been listening to Fela's music since my childhood in the early 1970s. I'm now in my 50s, I am still regularly listen to Fela's music. And the music blows my mind, every single time!
+Anengiyefa A Same here...been a Fela fan since I first heard a Fela song in the 1970s - Zombie - when my family relocated back to Nigeria. I'm still listening to Fela to this day. His music still resonates today....an icon for Afro Beats and African music in general. I am very proud of Fela considering we are from the same part of Nigeria - Abeokuta.
maybe you can help me pls, been looking for the song that has 'oro pesi je, oro dihun'..in it...it's stuck on replay in my head pleasee help out with the title. Thank you sir.
Inegbe Kingsley 'Stalemate' I think is the title of that track
Thank you Fela, you wrote us a long autobiography essay, and we love it....History shall forever be kind to you...Thank you Baba 70.Abami Eda
There is no end to Fela. I just keep getting further in.
Damn slippery slope leading unstoppably to a pleasure filled addiction. Welcome on board.
You just stepped into quick sand. Happily, no escape
Yeah that rabbit hole is deep
The African teacher, roots in culture, BIG UP
So Happy to have found such BEAUTIFUL MUSIC!! AFRICA!! YASSSSS!!💯💯💕💕👏👏💃💃FELA!!
Fela sang this song in the 80s. so so true about all his lyrics. SHAME ON NIGERIAN LEADERSHIP FROM THE TOP TO BOTTOM. SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!
the best song I have listened to my WHOLE LIFE!!!!!!!!
this song brought me to tears, I have no idea why. I love his music so much. I wish i heard this on the radio in 1990s
Fela just hits that place deep in your soul...
Fela touches you in a deep place!
rustedglory1
Indeed
Indeed. Nice instrumental lilicks
rustedglory1 you aint lying. I feel like I'm traveling through space.
Greatest african musician of all time ! As goggle now😎😎😎😎
God bless the black Africans......!
Relaxed misty music, I am felling sounds of Africa in backgroud. Bravo!
I remember during South Africa Apartheid, as a child asking my Sister where does this man singing come from she said Brazil (it was a song called Lady) so many of his songs were banned in Apartheid "Lady and Shakara" were the only two we got to hear in our Radio stations.
It was only when I got to Tertiary that i began to know and understand what Fela represent and faught for
Nigeria's greatest statesman. salut
Father before father, father after father, the Abami Eda himself, Orisa , that sax though R.I.P , in my mind are alive with these masterpiece
fela was way ahead of his times, an authentic artist with authentic music!!
Feel the greatest.....if the messages in his music are still relevant in Africa, especially Nigeria, it then means that we are just static, not making any progress. You don't have to be a christian or muslim to attain the prophet status because Fela's messages are prophesies in their own right. May God save us......but we need to save ourselves first.
Fela, still relevant in 2020.. Timeless Afro-beat / Afro-jazz high-life 👏👏🔥
Philosophy is a critique of pure reason, how did dis guy come to that without a world record. Am amazed at his analogy of the school system and his exposure of the British inability to say to Shagari or the military that they are wrong. Because of what the want to steal.
Gerald Ndubisi yes that's right
The nation was laid on a bad foundation
Shagari🐓? Nigeria's, Donald Trump🐷. Despite everything, Nigeria was still ahead when it comes to voting for a dumbo🐘 to be their head of state. The irony of it all😜.
Fela was Fela, he wasn't Peter Tosh of Africa or any of that..he was himself.
Leave Peter Tosh or anybody else out of it.
Fela! was Fela!
FULL STOP!
@@kolawoleolatunbosun261 Teach!
lol teacher done teach me nonsense all my life ooo at uni level i passed coz of what i had read out of my own interest and wat life done taught me oo. fela was right all along.. now i will make sure my daughter dont get taught nonsense in plenty..
I was in luv with this song as young as i was 7yrs old..... Fela is a genius
"Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught." - Oscar Wilde
Wow !!!❤
"Educated Fools from Uneducated Schools" - Curtis Mayfield
My favorite Fela recording, At 6:25 minutes in experience one of the most powerful sax performances of all time. Don't jump directly to it though; this masterpiece is a journey that must be experienced from beginning to end. You will be enlightened by the conclusion, even if you don'y completely comprehend pidgin. Love the phonetic play on words, democracy to themallcrazy.
Yes absolute bliss!!!!
You are absolutely right w
Genius... His music is even more relevant to us All now in 2020
That's Y.S. Fela's saxophonist. One of the best 👍🏾
That conscious groove is what I need right now
As a Nigerian, I always find psychological consolation within. He was a prophet, who lived ahead of his time. Himself, and Nelson Mandela were the two people that had an overbearing influence on the World stage, in the last century, according to TIMES Magazine...Great Guy.
Fela your artistry should be thought in Nigeria educational curriculum from grade schools to university. You are the founder of Afrobeat. You spoke the voice of humanity. The raw truth is pain, blinding to the victimize as well as those perpetrating the evil. TRUTH cannot be silent. The TRUTH is louder today than ever before, our Nigerian leaders have failed. The suffering of Nigerians is echoing very LOUD. You are a legend for ever. A freedom warrior for all human suffering. Anybody can relate.
You meant needs to be Taught.
So beautifully said Thank you, For Life FELA
The Pseudo is correct, from 14.37 in the song Fela clearly says go to various countries like Britain, France, Iran, Korea etc, it's their culture that is A TEACHER to them (and no African country gets a mention in his list) , fela then goes on at about 16.04 to say 'who be our teacher, na oyinbo' he talks about the travesty of democracy in Nigeria then 17:52 'I NO GREE TO FOLLOW OYINBO STYLE', he goes on to tear apart democracy as practiced in nigeria and supported by the west as DEMONSTRATION OF CRAZY,from what I listened to the core of the song is still that Africans should follow their own culture to teach/govern them. Basically if Africans were not following other people's culture it would not be in a position where it is getting it wrong and being taken advantage of. Fela also briefly notes that as for the teachers not correcting the wrong in what was being practiced clearly was paying them some kind of dividend hence they not only didn't correct them but additionally supported the wrong doing.
Thanks for the explanation. Are you Nigerian?
Great Breakdown makes Absolute Sense
this tickles my brain and makes me feel really good and a bit silly at the same time...
i love this
Demo-cracy, Cracy-demo. Demonstration of cracy, Cracy-demonstration
Listening to Fela's music virtually puts you on a whole different level. Feeling so inspired to challenge the status quo and raise myself above limits. #FelaLives 🙏
after fela died this style of music continue to go ahead,and to high dimension.TRUE MUSIC
Fela Kuti this man was an absolute legend, a national body the only man at his time who speaks of truth and was made by God to fight for the Anticipation of the black Race, man of freedom we wish not to let you go, a born Africa black and proud never let go Orientation, Culture, and Tradition of my people , man of truth only God knows why you go this way, fela for ever....
Point of correction he is not was.A Legend can never die
It’s mind blowing to listen to this one great son of Africa playing his mind & feelings all out!....One & only Fela!...Kete gets a lot of inspiration from this pieces👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿...
I told someone it’s disrespectful to say fella Kuti is your favorite musician...fela kuti is like the encyclopedia where artists get their contents from. So fela is a legend and not a favorite artist period.
How sad I discover you today? How sad I listened to noises while the purest gem remain hidden from my discovery, and this was played many years before technology was conceived?
Fela Kuti your music give pleasure to all senses.
Fela Fever I'm feeling the vibes, anyone here with me?
This was a straight gift from God. Blessing
So true...
Too Much Talent👌🏽
I can not stop moving!
That's Fela music for you!!!!
I got know Fela´s music in 1984-85 in Germany, i felt i had been cheated.A German lady gave it to me after she heard me playing music.
I was in the USA 30 years. No one had ever played his music for me.After I heard the music it was what I call the "A Love Supreme" effect.I was hooked.When I first heard the Coltrane song, i listened to his musik everyday for a whole month.
The genius of Fela is indescribable. He was a phenomenon in a class of his own.
Facts
Honestly i bleed inside where we've found ourself, we hid not to the single loudest voice warning of the unknown to come as we embrace foreign cultures . FELA your spirit live on forever, you've shape my mind and my personality
Still crying my love. Africa oh Africa.
Sonorous is his voice, speaking reality that travels through time to register his foreknowledge in the present situation of Africa, even till tomorrow... Fela, a messenger
Thanks for helping us relive this legend, he was a prophet who saw the problems Nigeria would encounter today it is glaring and Baba created his own beat. Baba we salute your LEGACY
Fela was one of African prophet...what he sang about its happening today across Africa and world. Rest in peace the Son of Ramsone Kuti i will always love you.
Absolutely Amazing!!
Man...growin man..and I’m discovering this cat now?...lovin it man!
The Legend of all time. The Prophet of our time, still speaking eloquently like the first day I heard him on national TV. Now I understand what he "is" teaching for I was too young to comprehend his depth and breadth. God bless you the Great one.
The King Of Afrikan Music 👑🎷🇳🇬
Père de l afrobeat ,révélation de la conscience africaine, il a semé le réveil, nous lui devons de récolter les fruits de son engagement au prix de sa vie.
LEGEND!!!! If you are looking for the best example of a nigerian, it is this man.
Baba 70..The originator of Afro-Beat!
fela has said it , let go, let go and take care of Africa , The mother land.
This is sadly unrecognised brilliance lost in a world of noise...pollution of politicians crap. Afrikan virtuosity ...Fela play your music in that other world, if there be one❤😂🙏🏽🙏🏽✊🏾👍🏾
he is one of the people that sing the song that makes sense his songs never die
So called at artist in Nigeria today only sings Adama shake your waist.
Yeah he rose above his musical genre to become a legend... His music and spirit will live on forever! FELA KUTI
Oh! What a gift to the African people....such a great treasure.....
Gift to the world Sandile ...
this is objectively the best song ever actually
WORD !!!
fela is one in a million...your legacy will live for ever
He was a genius
Comprehensively, lyrical African songs artist- gifted with instrumental jazz, & drums. A gift of all nations.
this guy is one of a kind his lyrics so relaxing I could listen to his music the whole day with no boredom what so ever
This year i have found new music new sounds on TH-cam it all blows me away hits every nerve a new reason to go on in life we all struggle day to day every time i listen and watch Fela it lifts me now i am listening to his son watching a great performance by Femi just like his father. wow
Problems of inflation. Problems of corruption.. Love Fela!
giants fan it's sad that this is still our problem
Oh what a performance it was thirty years ago this month at The Fox Theater in Detroit ! The brash horns were the politically charged counterpoint to the hypnotic rhythm and raw tribal sway of the dance line with Fela and his numerous wives. The man was a force on and off stage, an enduring voice against oppression.
I am 15 years now and I love fela music because he is an inspiration to me ,he my mind alot . he give me the power to express my mind
Muheez Kukoyi timeless music.
Muheez Kukoyi hold on to this type of mindset then you are all set for life
God bless you young one. Keep drinking from the well of ideas and inspiration.
Same! I guess you’re 18 now though
@@grapes4832 what if he's still 15
Fela lives through his music. He left behind a body of art’s masterpiece for the future generation to relish
The best African teacher.
Love him...always a spiritual experience.....
The great prophet indeed. Baba RIP
Great legend your still presently drawing souls to this musical contraction......Long Live Fela Kuti jamaican say that......
And I heard that his son is carrying on his legacy, bringing the world more of his kind of music.
Yes
His sons actually. They're pretty good!
