DYK?
Two facts you probably don’t know about the Legendary Fela Kuti!
- From Medicine to Music
Did you know that the music legend & Afrobeats pioneer initially set out to be a medical doctor? Fela Kuti was on his way to bag a MBBS degree in the UK before making a sudden swerve into the music world with a unique Afrobeat sound that blended traditional Nigerian sounds with foreign genres like jazz and funk.
- The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
It would also interest you to learn that in 2021, Fela was posthumously inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, due to his pace-setting contributions to the music industry and the world of social activism at large. Picture him as an Albert Einstein of the music world!
