Fela Kuti

Performer, instrumentalist, composer, pioneer of Afrobeat music, human rights activist and political maverick, Fela Kuti is often referred to as one of the best African musicians to have ever lived. After coming of age in the turbulent 1950s and 1960s, Fela and his 30-plus-piece afrobeat band---first called Africa 70, and later Egypt 80---boldly criticized the government, international business and corrupt leaders all over.
