Fela Kuti - Egbe Mi O (Edit) (Official Audio)

To understand where Fela’s musical quest began, you have to start with his education at London’s Trinity College School of Music. While his family had sent him to England to study medicine, Fela had more musical aspirations. After finishing school, Fela returned to Nigeria and with his band Koola Lobitios. Fusing the sounds of Jazz and Funk with the traditional African music he had been raised on, his star status began to flourish. EMI, his label at the time, saw the true power of his musical creation and brought Fela and his band back to London. The result was London Scene, recorded at Abbey Road Studios. While recording, Fela began his friendship with Ginger Baker, who plays uncredited on the track “Egbe Mi O”. London Scene is the beginning of what would become Fela’s signature Afrobeat style and serves as a great introduction to Fela’s music.

I literally just yelled at the radio because I'm listening to an African music show, and the song they were playing was such garbage with no real instruments and bad singing. I said "Ah, c'mon! Play some real music, ffs!", and this recommendation appeared💥🎶🔥💜
