FELA ANIKULAPO KUTI.
I was going through some of his songs and was like Whao!!!!!
Come along with me as I reel out some of them in no particular order for you to see and feel that he had a vision for our dear country Nigeria.
All the songs produced even as at then still have messages for anyone who has ears today:
*Unknown Soldier
*Sorrow Tears and Blood
*Who No Know Go Know
*Coffin for Head of State
*Shuffering and Shmiling
*Trouble Sleep Yanga go Wake am
*Beast of No Nation
*Teacher Don’t Teach me Nonsense
*Gentleman
*Colonial Mentality
*Confusion Break Bone
*No Agreement
*Mr Follow Follow
*Black Man’s City
*Eko Ile
*Underground System
*Swegbe and Pako
*Jeun Ko Ku
*ITT
*Alagbon Close
If you know the lyrics of any of these songs could you please match them up with happenings today.
For “Eko Ile”, no be the “Underground System” wey make Dem “Jeun Ko Ku” so tey “Confusion Break Bone” nah im make us come say please “Teacher Dont Teach me Nonsense”.
