I’m a Nigerian but this is a masterpiece which will definitely make Fela Kuti, the Legendary King of Afrobeat, very very proud of you guys. Love you all🔥✌️
Rhythmic, pulsating, tribal, groovalicous, tight band, master horn section, jamming rthym section, beautiful sexy women, and a joint!! Now I can really relax and groove to my hearts content. 60 yrs old and loving life.
LOL I think I've seen this clip about 55 times. There is another live version where lead singer is even better but they are missing girl on left. Man - at 7:52 when lead queen steps up...
Newen group killing it again. The lead with her soft and timid nature didn't relent in getting into the spirit of the energetic military tempo of the zombie heat. The back up by her right side is a great comic robotic effect typifying the zombiec nature of the hilarious robotic lifestyle of soldiers who are constantly being remote controlled like 🤖 robots. I love this great with great passion from the depths of my heart. Fella lives on for sure... Kudus and much love and strength to u guys. Long live the Newen afrobeat group.... Long live Fella Anikulakpo Kuti...
I LOVE everything I see of Newen Afrobeat!! Glad as hell they’ve got it going on RUclips since it think the chances are probably slim that I’ll get lucky enough to actually catch them live, but Damn, they frickin’ nail it every time!
Never mind, it's not a question of race , appropriation or whatsoever. once the spirit, the soul is there that's all. One blood, one love. Those who are progressive, impartial will appreciate. Anikulapo KUTI was fighing against injustice, corruption and nepotisism. He was a great African and will remain forever. Love and understanding that's what we need. Let's fight against racism and all kind of discrimination for all.
How can such a significant song and amazing quality performance can have just 248,563 views? I guess no big promotional machine behind great talent! Shame
This band is incredible! Each and every musician is amazing. And it's so powerful to see the women at the front of the stage - the theatricality and rhythm they bring!
was fortunate enough to see them at Sunfest in London, Ontario this summer... if you ever get a chance to see them, GO!! Their concert is non-stop rhythm from the first beat to the last. They are truly brilliant...
Ustedes lo mataron. Tengo altissimo respeto para el maestro Fela Kuti y la verdad que hicieron un tributo genial! Muy buen espectáculo también. Se siente el amor que tienen para el afrobeat. Felicitaciones!
WOW!!!!! BEAUTIFUL JOB, GUYS & GALS!! RESPECT!!! That is NOT an easy song to cover ! lol quite the contrary. And You NAILED it ! ! ! !SUPERB ! ! ! ! ! KEEP IT UP ! ! FELA IS SMILING DOWN ON US R.N.! :)
Un espectáculo milimétrico … llama a la perfección … se pasaron …. Así dan esperanza de que no todo está perdido…. Lo mejor para ustedes …. Gracias totales ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
A higher level of consciousness and power to the people! Knowing the history behind this song takes it to dimension#5! More relevant and magnificent music and showmanship has ever been rendered IMHO. Love and Thanks to Newen Afrobeat
La percusión con su lenguaje afrodescendiente en conjunción perfecta con una orquesta Big Bang y jazz fusión (esos bronces!) Que placer escuchar ritmos y sonidos de esta categoría, son pulentos cabrxs!
Une pure merveille ! Mise en scène de Qualité exceptionnelle des musiciens Présence magnifique des chanteuses Une mention spéciale pour la chanteuse principale. Que du bonheur
Bravo! Bravo! grandes músicos y una música espectacular, autentica, vibrante, música que se expresa con todos los matices de colores del espectro que se combinan perfectamente con las voces... lo disfruto muchísimo...
Grandioso chicos(as) son geniales talento nato,originalidad única y esa briba afroamericana que expresan es genial sigan adelante les deseo todo lo mejor. Que Dios les bendiga..
this is the best, feel great video I have come across since March 2019, thank you guy, bless you, sending soooooooo much love, hope you are still doing this when "this" is over, will go anywhere to see you live!!!!
Now that´s what I´m talking about! There´s Fela´s rage, his playful derision, his passion! Musical talent combined with scathing political commentary. These guys get it. 10:20 to 10:50 in particular was like a zombie apocalypse. This is Zombie done right!
Muy buen grupo , mejoráis todas y todos en cada actuación , cada vez mejor , os felicito , me encanta escucharos y veros , cada día más guapas y guapos , os amo .
la onditaaaaaaaa! yo acá puro saltando... tienen ke venir a viena - austria este verano. quiero gritar, cantar bailar, gozar con uds. en vivo! l@s amoooooooo!

Love this. Guess what? this song was banned in Fela’s country Nigeria by the military junta at the time but here we are, it is still being reproduced internationally several decades later. Great performance and excellent music!

No cap
Ohyes
Newen Afrobeat is one GREAT band on another level.
Wow, I almost didn’t watch this b/c I was looking for a Fela video. Killer cover of a killer tune!
Rhythmic, pulsating, tribal, groovalicous, tight band, master horn section, jamming rthym section, beautiful sexy women, and a joint!! Now I can really relax and groove to my hearts content. 60 yrs old and loving life.
I keep on watching this over and over again. I cannot believe how brilliant they are!!
LOL I think I've seen this clip about 55 times. There is another live version where lead singer is even better but they are missing girl on left. Man - at 7:52 when lead queen steps up...
Our Chief Priest and MOP leader lives forever. Baba would have loved this. Thanks for keeping his ingenuity alive.
Happy you guys paid a tribute to Fela Kuti. Zombie is one of the favorite.
Newen are badass!
Your music would make Fela Kuti proud!
The choreography also 5:10
These guys are on another level..I'm now addicted to their performances.
This is fire !!!!! can we take a moment and appreciate these queens outfits?
Your band is a showstopper, wow 😮
I lost word honestly. You're doing what most Nigerians can't do or appreciate. Thanks very much this.
Newen group killing it again. The lead with her soft and timid nature didn't relent in getting into the spirit of the energetic military tempo of the zombie heat.

Very sure the Kutis are secretly impressed with this orchestration.
Long live Fela forever and ever
This music bring all of us forget our problems! I am old but I am happy . With this music my blood pump up and feel young again .Cheers! Thank you.
Nigerian musicians cannot even play Fela Kuti's music as good as Newen Afrobeat.
Que potente!! Como es el nombre de la vocalista? Que tremenda su expresión! Felicidades y gracias por tamaña delicia, gran tributo a Fela !!

Hey Scott, I sure do miss Sunfest!
This Band brings Fela Kuti legacy alive. I love to hear them play Kuti's music.
The HORNS are Magnificent!!!! Real Music!!!!
I wish Fela was here to see this . It brought tears to my eyes.
Fela died too early. I really missed him.
Long live Fela Anikulakpo-Kuti; the only man who held death in his pocket and lived to tell the story! Long live Afro Beat! Long live the Kuti family!
The very hottest of Chillies! When the f**k are you coming to London??? Biggest respect and thanks. Peace!
Fela Reigns.
Every part of this band rox! Love all the sections, but my favorite is the best snare hit ever at 12:08 when he drops it, to bring the horns back in.
Ustedes lo mataron. Tengo altissimo respeto para el maestro Fela Kuti y la verdad que hicieron un tributo genial! Muy buen espectáculo también. Se siente el amor que tienen para el afrobeat. Felicitaciones!
Fantastique prestation hymne à Fela et afro beat , superbe prestation rythmique. J'adore . NORBERT .

Daymn!! Una too try, abeg. The music is extremely refreshing!!!! Love from Naija/Fela's people.
This or Upside Down, Macarena screaming for justice. Starts my day on chilli's and a double espresso.
You kinda forget they came out of theatre.When the lead drops the scream at 10:18 it just goes to another level.
So much energy on the stage!

Yea the scream is awesome. I tell people that there is another live version on the Tube where she gets even wilder and starts hissing like a cat.
Wie immer: herrlich dieser Kombo zuzuschauen und hören!! : ))
Fela was also telling us that it takes Zombies to empower the Zombies...Wake up everyone!
Bravo! You put your own twist on it, but you got the rhythm and were perfectly on beat. Bravo!
