Afrobeat in moers - Seun Kuti

| Keine Kommentare
Seun Kuti, the youngest son of Fela Kuti, the founder and father of the Afrobeat, is now the leader of his father's band Egypt 80. Fela was known for never playing songs at his concerts that he had previously recorded in a studio. In contrast to this, his son Seun Kuti makes sure that the legendary songs from the Fela Kuti era get a chance to be performed.

Seun Kuti talks about his work in a show on Red Bull Music Academy Radio.




Seun's concert agency f-cat has posted a short biography and some videos of Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 on its homepage. Definitely worth a look!
