Mabinuori Kayode Idowu’s biography of Fela Kuti highlights the musician’s revolutionary political activism and his fight against corruption and colonialism in Nigeria. The book details Fela’s creation of the Republic of Kalakuta and his leadership of Afrobeat with the Africa 70 band. Though rich in political and personal insights, the biography lacks detailed references to his discography and photos. The legacy continues through Fela’s children, especially Femi Kuti, who revived the Africa Shrine as a center for social change. Discover Fela Kuti’s inspiring life story and political legacy—read the full biography and dive into Afrobeat history now!

 "A composition that is at times sweet, then naturally booming and chaotic."

Released posthumously, Crap's 2006 album captures the band's raw, improvisational energy before disbanding in 1999. Rooted in Italy's jazz-theater scene, the music flows between chaotic and sweet, blending free-jazz with innovative instrumentation. The album offers a valuable, if noisy, glimpse into a unique musical era. A testament to the talents of Ricci, Paci, Cipriani, and Andreini. Listen now to Crap’s unique free-jazz blend and experience Italy’s vibrant 90s jazz improvisation scene!
