Fela’s son keeps it funky.
-
We Say...
Though he continued recording up through the early '90s, few of Fela's records after the early '80s can really touch his classic material; he died in 1997 from complications due to AIDS. By then, his son Femi had already been leading his own Afrobeat band for almost a decade, and Africa Shrine is a fine and funky example of 21st-century Afrobeat (which, it must be said, doesn't sound much different from the 20th-century kind). While he lacks his father's immense presence — no crime, really, just ask Jakob Dylan — Femi's intimate vantage point gave him a deep understanding of what makes the best Afrobeat work.
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
