During her enchanting set, beyonce's band performed a rendition of the Afrobeat legend's classic 1976 track, "Zombie". It can best be described as moving.

The world is yet to get over Beyonce's incredible performance at the 2018 Coachella festival where she paid tribute to Nigerian music legend, the late Fela Anikulapo Kuti.

Beyonce used the late icon’s instrumentalist at her Coachella performance and it was absolutely amazing.

I know some idiots will come and shout ‘See Beyoncé celebrating Fela while Ambode has a headless statue of the weed addict’

Others will criticize Beyoncé for stealing felas song while refusing to have a tour of Africa.

So this made front page?

King na king

Fela is a king even in death

Wow. That's awesome. Fela remains one of the greatest legends to emerge from Nigeria.

Ok

That is the most celebrated Nigerian musician of all time. Just this year he has been paid tributes by Paul McCartney, Snoop Dog and now Beyonce.

What a legend?

Beyounce YEA YEA

This guy's name still resonance despite his death. I don't want to mention names but some corrupt and shameless politicians have gone as it was as if they never exist.

Zombies don suffer.

Ojuelegba 4 Life... Ojuelegba na still Fela's spiritual home.

Ayilara... Empire! Ah.. I been dey miss sha. All the fine fine Ashana for Empire.. Priscilla, Loveth, Sandra, Julie, Blessing..

When Africans don't appreciate what's theirs, foreigners would.
