Yankiss:
Fela Kuti, a great musical icon that used his music to challenge irresponsible leadership. Today, music in Nigeria is all about pleasure and kowtow. The radical Fela spirit has been abandoned. The like of Fela Kuti, Gani Fawehinmi, etc rescued Nigeria from shackles of military predation. Today, no one is ready to sacrifice their comfort for the general good.

In fairness, Fela was the only consistent critic. Most of his contemporaries played soft music most of the time (Sonny Okosuns did occasionally insert some critiques of the government obliquely...eg his song 'Which way Nigeria')

There will never be another FELA.

There are many wannabes, (rightly so) but nobody fit be like Baba 70.

RIP Abami Eda, ironically, the man who has death in his pocket!

It is possible he doesn't know...

Me, if someone mentions the name 'Rex Lawson'...all I might be able to say is 'He passed on in 1971, he was a highlife musician'. Mention his songs...blank.

As for I.K Dairo...all I might be able to say is that 'He was a highlife musician, and the father of Paul Play Dairo.' Mention his songs...blank.
