Producer Profile
Fela Anikulapo Kuti invented Afrobeat — a synthesis of Yoruba music, jazz, funk, and political radical thought that became one of the most powerful musical and political forces Nigeria has ever produced. His extended compositions, often 20 minutes or longer, were howls of protest against the Nigerian military government that imprisoned and brutalised him repeatedly. He is the most sampled African artist in hip hop history.
