International thief thief.
ReplyDeleteTeacher don't teach me nonsense
ReplyDeleteAll fela music describes how Nigeria is
ReplyDeleteLong live fela...
All..
ReplyDeleteBut since I'm to pick one, I will pick Beast of no nation.
APC zombie = shit hole nation.
ReplyDeleteVirtually all his songs explains Nigeria's abysmal state.
ReplyDeleteI always refer people to "listen" to 'Basket Mouth' & 'Army Arrangement'.
Very apt description.
I agree with you...all his songs describe Nigeria in one way or the other.
DeleteNigeria was better when he sang those songs, so I wonder what he would have sing now that Nigeria is in deep shit.
ReplyDeleteContinue to RIP Legend.
All the listed songs captured both the past, the present and the future of the Nigerian state.
ReplyDeleteSorrow Tears & Blood
ReplyDeleteInternational thief thief
ReplyDeleteColonial mentality
ReplyDeleteI think all the songs listed above best describes the situation in Nigeria at the moment
ReplyDeleteOh fela, he was a good musician, so unique! I grew up listening to fela's songs here and there but I was not really paying attention. Till my ex gave me an Ipod, with plenty songs, different albums of different musicians.
ReplyDeleteOne day I decided to listen to his songs and omg I was hooked, like why have I not been listening to this legend? He spoke about the ills of this nation in his songs.
Continue to rest in peace Fela.
This is heart breaking, Fela sang these songs in the past and they are still relevant in present day cos those situations are still prevalent. I weep for us as a country, I weep.
ReplyDeleteSuffering and smiling.
ReplyDeleteITT, ODOO, Zombie, Sufferring and Smiling they are not. RIP Great Legend Abami FELA you were right
ReplyDeleteI love him for who he was, but singing rubbish about your country and and calling your country names without providing solution is a no for me.
ReplyDeleteAfter all, there no country that is perfect.
He helped in creating awareness since we like to do suffering and smiling, he let us know that things are very bad. So we should stop decieving ourseleves. Even now, what is the solution, he has told us our problems we too we should think and find solution to them. But no we will sit in our houses comfortably complaining about things not working. No body speaks up to the government. Nobody to hold them accountable.
DeleteBeast of no Nation,egbe kegbe🎶
ReplyDeleteBeast of no nation.....egbe ke gbe, na bad society! 🎵 🎤
ReplyDeleteBBC
ReplyDeleteAll the songs above best describe the situation of Nigeria today.
ReplyDeleteAll four but l will pick Beast of No Nation. God Bless Nigeria
ReplyDeleteAll
ReplyDeleteAnon 13:03, Fela wasn’t abusing or demeaning his country. He directed his songs to exposing bad folks in Government or other groups oppressing fellow Nigerians with their colonial mentality. All Fela sang about over 35 years ago! “, “Yellow fever nko e de,“ “Pastor na enjoyment, imam na gbaladun” are so prescient! ALL Fela’s songs from 3 to 5 decades ago are apt. From the stealing and corruption to colonial mentality, to bleaching of skin, to stealing under the guise of religion, to militarized lawless police etc are even worse now. He was not abusing his country.
ReplyDeleteYou can’t love or give more to Nigeria than he and his family did. His mom the famous Funmi Ransome Kuti was a true women’s rights activist. His dad, Rev Ransome Kuti was a patner with Bishop Ajayi Crowther and others in bringing Christianity to some parts of Nigeria, his brothers Dr Beko Kuti (an incorruptible activist) and Prof Olikoye Ransome Kuti all fought for the good of Nigeria. You can’t love Nigeria more than the Kutis.
No wonder JayZ and some African Americans posthumously honored him with a broadway show, the highest honor they could have given him. I pity the current generation of young Nigerians with comments like yours. Don’t point out and fix what’s wrong with your country as long as you think you benefit. I use the word “think” because the elites who go for regular check ups are in bad shape and many have fallen victim to their unbridled greed having refused to set up a health care structure with well equipped hospitals with well trained professionals in Nigeria. They now see what Fela saw! No abuse just read or ignore. As I will continue to say anonymously, use social media to develop Nigeria, we have no civil rights activists again! Use the power of social media to make Nigeria better! #saynotocorruption. #wearetiredofsuffering. #stayhimeandbuildhospitals #stopwastingfxtotreatearacheineurope
