Oga lalasticlala this op posted it first. You even copied his title and used it on this one. So because naptu opened his own, he is more credible? Even when the first guy put the source? Nawa o! Corruption!

Yes. His name was Tony Oladipo Allen. He was Fela's drummer in the 1970s and he was a co-creator of Afrobeat.

Was he meant to live forever before? He has died and gone. Let us celebrate a life worth emulation.

My sister, are you new on NL. She is a known critic of beggars. A lot of real people in need has gone off because of her and her gang. Calling them broke niccas.
She then proceeds to beg in secret?? That is hypocrisy. When I had the mind to help, she then proceeded to insult me point-blank.

The great Tony Allen! I thought he at some point followed Fela to Ghana where they invented great rhythm!!
Re: Tony Allen Is Dead! by Nobody: 11:09am On May 01, 2020
Fela needed FOUR drummers to replace Allen when he left. grin

I've gone back to listen to most of Fela's music and it was as close to perfection as you can get. They made music into art

RIP legend

That's the problem with most celebrity living far above their means Fela marrying almost everyone in his band yet couldn't pay his workers adequately and as at when due he didn't even allow some band guys also have some of the ladies he married them all for his selfish self alone
Re: Tony Allen Is Dead! by kokomilala(m): 11:22am On May 01, 2020
Tony Allen taught himself drumming at age 18.He was Fela's musical director. When he parted ways with Fela, the vacuum or gap he left was do void that Fela TRIED to replace him with four drummers.One critic regarded him as the greatest drummer ever.
21 gunshots for the genius,and as co- creator of Afrobeats.

Why do people look forward to putting others down so much? Why? You can't be happy if you don't denigrate others? I didn't ask you. Why can't you just move on?

When I asked, the articles were not posted yet! The only thing he posted was the drummer has died.
Re: Tony Allen Is Dead! by ijedeikorodu(m): 11:32am On May 01, 2020
RIP to genius of the drum sets
Re: Tony Allen Is Dead! by Nobody: 11:33am On May 01, 2020
My brother, it is very very sad. Just imagine it, having someone of Tony Allen's stature in fame and yet he was unknown to most Nigerians. There is something fundamentally wrong with us. We need a new nationalistic thinking that will encourage us to celebrate ourselves. No one will do this for us.
It is sad.
gbebodye:
It's crazy how foreigners value our local Nigerian talents, cultures, resources etc more than we the owners

rest well papa

embarassed
