Fela is the BOMBBBBBBBBBBBBB
I have loads of his music on viynl ( lol I am giving my age away here)
yeah I do have his music on CDs...Hahaha I have advanced with
technology.
The thing about Fela is this..He was fearless, Bold, Morally Upstanding.
Never afraid to expose the Government or any political situation or business
situation that affected Nigeria and Her Citizens.
He went through so much tribulation each time he exposed, He would
be flogged , sent to prison. Yet while in prison Fela was always Inspired
to write more songs.
To appreciate the Lyrics is to appreciate the depth of what He was exposing.
As a musician He had loads of female dancers. I believe they were called Prostitutes
by some people. If I am wrong someone correct me o. Fela's response was
to have a Huge Wedding, where He married ALL 23 women at the same time.
So much can be said about Fela. Imagine your Mother being thrown out of the
window of the house you live in, by the army. *Dem Kill My Mama* as He sings!!
Fela~ Rest in Peace
Mama Fela.. The Mother of A Great Nation ~ Rest in peace
