Our wonderful black President got 3 times as many US GIs killed from '08-'16 in A'Stan than George Bush did Comrades...after Campaigning to, "End all Wars and Fundamentally Transform Amerika", Barack Hussein Obama, 2008...Now his only Legacy is Hate the White Man, Cop Killing, Smash and Grabs, Car Jackings, and a Bloodbath of Black on Black Shootings EVERYDAY in EVERY Democrat (Plantation) City in America. Black LIES Matter
Everyone who are trying to compare versions and saying one is superior to another are just missing the point. If the supposition that music is language is true, if a single example becomes the only accepted version then that song or genre becomes as dead as Latin. Fela is alive because people are still finding his truths in their own ways.
Love the music. Love the performances from all these wonderful musicians to give us this enjoyable music. Love the fact that the music is living on long after the period it was first produce.
No matter where you are, who you be, proof is in the pudding (put in), Fela just rocked everybody’s world. Another stellar performance of musician excellence, mastery of wonderous orchestrations. Brilliantly played, thank you, Albinoids and Adam. I’ll never tire of this number, Fela lives forever! Polyrhythms not easy people!
This is truly beautiful. I was fascinated watching a re-do of one of Fela's piece by non-Africans. At first I thought no one amongst you would be able to sing the lyrics! But now I know better. Kudos! Kudos! Wow! It was great!

Stunning performance. Solos by Paul Barbieri & Laure Fischer are sublime, and every musicians are so supportive. Great and very coherent interpretation. Magnifique!!
Fela kuti, the father and Originator of Afrobeat. Now been claimed by chile and other countries in the world. Nigeria to the world, and proudly Yoruba!🙌 ....I miss you a lot Mr Abami Eda.
J'écoute fela tous les jours depuis près de dix ans maintenant... c'est la première cover que j'écoute et que je trouve juste, ENORME BRAVO A VOUS TOUS, vous êtes magnifique! don't give up!
BRAVO GUYS...I AM 100% IMPRESSED WITH THRE ENERGY AND THE ENTHUSIASM! RESPECT AND LOVE GOES TO THE LATE FELA KUTI, AKA BABA WONDER, ONE THE BEST LEGENDARY AFROBEAT GENIUS THAT EVER WALKED THE EARTH SURFACE!! YOU GUYS ARE TERRIFICALY AUTHENTIC AND GENUINE. LONG LIVE YOUR MUSIC GROUP! PEACE!
@@ise3884 Oga don't stop talking shit. Fela is not "one of " He is the creator of Afrobeat. He made it known to the world. Though you are not yoruba, but go find out about him properly before dropping wrongly comments about his life work.
@@adamlanfrey You guys are the best ever. I'm proud to see you guys performing one of the legendary music of Fela Kuti, Mr Abami Eda, the father and true creator of Afrobeat....God bless you guys... Please do a mix of " Water no get enemy"
Gobsmacked!!! After the initial shock of how authentically Afro Beat you guys sound, everything was going tolerably well till you guys knocked me off my seat with your spot-on background vocals.
was a bit skeptical at the beginning but they ABSOLUTELY CRUSHED this!!! Great cover but they still put their spin on it. More Fela Kuti covers please!
I'm 61 and this boiled my egg. And I'm pretty well hard boiled as far as music goes. Festival and more, good time get up and dance band, nothing less will do!
Absolutely brilliant, outstanding! These musians have a great talent. Would love if you did a gig in UK, seeing you live would be an experience. Please keep posting
Ohhhhhhhh, good, good stuff . . . . really digging right in and stirring it up . . . and wicked, wicked horns. Fantastic! Keep the flag flying, Amigos! Mucho respecto from Vancouver.
Wow! You guys are so talented and this cover is amazing all the way around. The solos, the sax, the percussion, the drum and the vocals are just amazing, everything done with such conviction and skill. Excellent vocals!!!
Came here to say this also. That millimeter is the drums, IMHO. Newen has a jazz-sounding kit and the drummer bangs on the fillings way more often and louder, which I personally like better. Nothing wrong with this one, tho. Delivered great where I thought they would be the thinnest, the vocal(s).
This is really, really great -- full props for superb musicianship. But still prefer the fantastic Newen version -- but hard to compete with with Sean Kuti on lead vocals (and lead sweat production) and the Newen's great singers, especially Francisca with her powerful and soulful low range.
Gran interpretación, La saxofonista es genial. Esta versión me parece más académica que la de Newen Afrobeat. Pero la de Newen Afrobeat tiene más emoción.
OMG! This is so good. I especially love the first few minutes...before and right after the bass comes in, the gal in the blue dress is swinging it...yes! I love to see that, the way people move in response to the groove. Yes! Fela lives in our hearts & bodies...we groove. Thank you So so much!
ruclips.net/video/IETm6crA37A/видео.html New Fela Cover! With much love and respect for the Black President.
I agree
BECAUSE SEUN KUTI WAS IN NEWEN COVER

Latin lives here as well as Afro beat.
Truth
Great musicians all ✌

I am a Nigerian and I totally support your statement. Well said
Damn that sax gal's got some lungs.. stupendous performance guys.. (no ads with adblocker)
As a real Fela fan, a connoiseur of African Music, and an African, I can truly say that this was an entertaining prerformance.
The balls it takes to cover this you guys killed it!🤯🔫✊🏿
Great cover! Fela did not suffer for nothing. His message is still true today. Thank you!
I listen to this in my great car sound system all the time. Never depressed.
i almost cried when she hit that bass sax solo, just like Fela's Show-Boy ! you guys nailed it.
I didn't almost cry, I cried when she hit that bass solo. Exactly there..
elle est fabuleuse au saxo baryton
Very good version. Very competent Horn section

From Marrekch Morocco 🇲🇦 that's making me chaking my foot.
I am so impressed. I really thought you guys would stop at the instrumental, but you even sang Nigerian pidgin English. Magnificent!
I won't lie, it was a lot of work... I hope I had it right! 🙂
@@adamlanfrey Pidgin is almost always right! You certainly got it right.
Yeah, you got it right. I'm a Nigerian, and I loved your rendition. I could hear each word. Great job.
Very moving to watch for Nigerians! Bravo ! Felas greatness lives on !
Vous faites honneur à l'Afrique avec ce qui pour moi est une des meilleures reprise de Fela, merci

SOOO Nice!! Afrobeat at it´s best..Fela(Kuti) and Toni(Allen) are still watching and listening ! Viva Africa!
le trompetiste est tres bien
More than watching and listening!
Fela kuti, the father and Originator of Afrobeat. Now been claimed by chile and other countries in the world. Nigeria to the world, and proudly Yoruba!🙌 ....I miss you a lot Mr Abami Eda.
So, when is Fela going to get his Grammy award? It seems the whole world loves his music.
You guys nailed it. You got the essence of Afrobeat.....improvisations...spot on
J'écoute fela tous les jours depuis près de dix ans maintenant... c'est la première cover que j'écoute et que je trouve juste, ENORME BRAVO A VOUS TOUS, vous êtes magnifique! don't give up!
Finally one of these afro beat dispensers that gets my chair rocking

Positive thoughts, peace!
Absolutely joyous music. It's impossible not to smile or sit still.
I love opposite in a faster tempo, it brings fela back with more power! greetings from Chile in behalf of newen ;)
Me too! Great sound muchachos, greetings from Chile / Holanda amigo, Newen!
Lovely. You guys rocked it too. Thank you!
Brilliantly done cover. You guys nailed it. His successors,Femi and Seun his sons and all who rever Fela would feel proud!
Fantastic job. Fela would be happy 👍
This goes soul to soul, strong vibes, thank you!
Gobsmacked!!! After the initial shock of how authentically Afro Beat you guys sound, everything was going tolerably well till you guys knocked me off my seat with your spot-on background vocals.
Unless you’re fela kuti it’s very difficult to try and reproduce his songs but you guys did it spot on
It's like, bring whatever instrument you happen to have and you can totally play with us. Love the vibe.
was a bit skeptical at the beginning but they ABSOLUTELY CRUSHED this!!! Great cover but they still put their spin on it. More Fela Kuti covers please!

Great band! You are ALL wonderful!
Great mix of gifted people results in ... us all dancing!

Damn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you guys got it. I got goosebumps. True music
Se dan cuenta que no importa el color!? Si la musica logra conmovernos, entusiarmarnos, no importa para nada quien la hizo! Solo debemos disfrutarla
Great stuff. You keep the legend, Fela, alive. Thanks
Nice........Great Groove........
Bravo, c'est du concentré d'énergie ! you made my day ;)
Great stuff! I love the reaction of the singer at 10:31 who realized they added one "Them go show" too many hahaha
I really love your music, your great, I'm glad I found you.~USA
you guys are truly wonderful... I love this
Outstanding! Wow. 💐💐💐🙏
Fantastic! That trumpet player came out of nowhere!! such a laid back look, but blew it away
Yo this is good! My man was decent on them vocals considering how hard Fela's part is. The groove was on point. Nice playing from everyone.
Ohhhhhhhh, good, good stuff . . . . really digging right in and stirring it up . . . and wicked, wicked horns. Fantastic! Keep the flag flying, Amigos! Mucho respecto from Vancouver.
Wao Fela would look down to say thanks to this group, Fela Kuti the world legend rest on in Jesus Christ Name Amen
FORMIDABLE!!! Totalement jouissif. Vous êtes tous parfaits. ça donne de l'énergie pour la journée. On emporte cette musique avec soi. Merci.
Still one of my favs 2024…..thank you!!!
Quel talent, bravo!!!
So so lovely, thanks to you guys
This is really FANTASTIC
+Atananaki Thanks !! :)
Great Bari Sax And Trumpet solos
Music is the weapon of the future
Have a look at Afrobeat
Probablement la meilleure reprise de ce tube.....les "gens" sont tous pareils 👍
This jumping - you know where the party at! Nuff respect!!!
Am so happy for playing our Fela 😊
Fantastic band and great cover.
Bravo à tous , c'est formidablement bien joué
If this one doesn't make you want to dance... you are probably dead :-)
If you are dead, listen to Zombie by Newen.
Are you kidding me. I am old with this music my soul start dancing. I am dancing now. Thank you guy’s peace .
I just want to say just listen and let it get into your heart
Wow! You guys are so talented and this cover is amazing all the way around. The solos, the sax, the percussion, the drum and the vocals are just amazing, everything done with such conviction and skill. Excellent vocals!!!
Thanks! I just got the orchestra back together after a very long break. We will have new videos coming soon!
Alright. Alright. Wow. Killed it.
them goooo shoooow
gran trabajo, fela kuti estaria orgulloso
Grâce à vous mes lundis ressemblent à des vendredis... Merci ! keep up the good vibes ;)
Kickass!!!
Second best version of "opposite people"! Great stuff! Newen Afrobeat version a millimeter better!
I would say that Newen Afrobeat's version is better. This is very good without problem
@@victorjuarezgonzalez4575
I totally agree!
@@victorjuarezgonzalez4575
mucho mas mejor!

luckily, it is not a race :) enjoy
This one's a banger. Bravo
This is really, really great -- full props for superb musicianship. But still prefer the fantastic Newen version -- but hard to compete with with Sean Kuti on lead vocals (and lead sweat production) and the Newen's great singers, especially Francisca with her powerful and soulful low range.
OMG! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! BRAVO X 1000 000
must beautiful 🌿🌺🌿
Beautifully played. One of my early mornings and evenings must hear music
Gran interpretación, La saxofonista es genial. Esta versión me parece más académica que la de Newen Afrobeat. Pero la de Newen Afrobeat tiene más emoción.
I agree. They each have something to offer.
Tengo problemas con la seccion de vientos. Es mas rica y colorida la de Newen
Sera que tenian mejores ingenieros de sonido? Puede ser. Habra que verlos en la makinita para poder comparar :)
Ambas versiones son geniales. En el caso de Newen son mucho mas musicos en escena. I believe both versions are great!
you hit the nail on the head with that. it's a great interpretation!
Fela is alive in this music!
Keep up the great work guys making Fela proud. Long live afro beat.
magnifique!!
greetings from Portugal
Awesome. Great sound, playing, feeling.
Kudos! I thoroughly enjoyed this cover of Fela's "Opposite People". You guys did a terrific job!
GREAT COVER, girls and guys!!! Go on!
Great cover. Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 19th October 2024.
El sonido es tan limpio, que se escucha cada instrumento.
HOT DAMN! These 'Binos can give Newen Afrobeat a run for the money any day!
AFROBEAT!
Fantastic job. Thanks
amazing
