"Water e no get enemy" was one of the jazzy tunes that defined the good old days of Lagos. My special tribute to Tony Oladipo Allen, the founder of Afro beat. His trap drumming style and Fela's avant-garde tenor and alto sax improvisation, created our unique Afro beat. The two are a special gift to us. Thank u lord

The guitar player was weak. His timing was way off during that solo he played, and he was even throwing off the who band for a couple of moments there.

The horn section was superb though, and they did justice to that timeless Fela classic. Fela's jazz influences are so apparent in this tune, and it is no wonder, since Fela was a graduate of a music academy in London, before heading to Nigeria as a young musician in the 1960s.

Even as the Abami Eda (Fela Anikulapo Kuti) is today remembered by the politically-correct nincompoops that throng society, as Fela Kuti (emasculated out of the rebel of his truth back into bearing the name he renounced, when alive) even so is Ikoro Iyineleda most obviously to be remembered by this same set of Imbecilic Hypocrisy as an Emmanuel Gay that spent his life proffering the philosophy of Leslam, under the legally-approved name of "Anonymous."

If even after songs like "Zombie," "Beast Of No Nation," and "Suffering And Smiling;" his name has even yet fallen back into being merely "Kuti;" then, obviously, any name other than those given above - for Ikoro Iyineleda, from thee - will be a simple "John Doe."

Water no get enemy till e become your enemy.. Ask titanic victims

The deeper meaning actually means, you cant afford to be an enemy to water...you need it to survive and if you are not careful you can drown in it. So you dare not fight it. Therefore No one can afford to be an enemy to water.

Semantics. The USMC works with the Navy, Air force and Army. At least you can read that from the picture I posted.
