Fela Kuti is already here under World Fusion, I'm a fan.

All good then. However, many other Afrobeat innovators are not on this site. Perhaps Tony Allen, Nomo, Antibalas, Femi Kuti, and Seun Kuti are worth a look?
Tony Allen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Mm5eVboyCM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Allen_%28musician%29 Nomo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddP0lLAcSVs http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomo Antibalas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ly8-4J3l4d0 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antibalas Femi Kuti: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_sHkltODJ5Q http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femi_Kuti Seun Kuti: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z43Q5OtRUQM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seun_Kuti |
