But Fela and Tony Allen named Afrobeat a music with a powerful politic and social meaning, very far away from the superficiality and empty vocals of the most of the named "afrobeatS": kzfaq.infoxsqhuT2zuMA?si=7e3hDD4bNQcO6ue- The "s" marks the difference.

All wrong

Get ur information right pls

It’s still his epiphany that lead to the term ‘afrobeat’. he’s not wrong just because he didn’t list Fela Kuti’s inspirations

Shut up,there are many other sides to Afrobeat history,even the sides you don't know... All depends on the particular aspect the interviewer wants to know..The fact that Burna didn't say it all doesn't mean his knowledge is limited and the fact that you said some other parts doesn't mean you know it all and others don't.

Facts

Wow we really are so connected. How beautiful ❤

Felas politics was inspired but not the music . He wasn’t hanging out with musicians in the US , he hanged out with activist and then he because an activist in Nigeria through his music . Fela was a freedom fighter but he founded Afrobeat and named it . What is the argument here ? Burna Boy is still 100% correct . I know Americans like to take credit for other people’s hard work

You have never been to Africa

What state????? Can you stop being a self acclaimed man, go study your history very well Africa is the pioneers of civilization and music originated from Africa, just be matured to accept the creativity in Africans.

@@user-sq8tp9xl6w Blacks in the UNITED STATES 🤦🏾‍♂️All that could be true. But those African artist had to come to the states to cross over and make millions. They couldn’t do it in Africa 🤷🏿‍♂️

Bruh the states did in no shape or form make afrobeats if anything it was the african diaspora in Europe especially England, so educate your ignorant mind

American arrogance lol

He's not even doing afrobeat.... He does reggae afro

Dibangu?@@anthonyisrael9229

The first is...his grandfather never managed him.....he was once a producer of Fela that masters Fela sounds in the studio.... FELA .....gave birth to Afrobeat through high life, jazz (black culture) and Nigeria cultural background (yoruba especially) sounds....that's why you hear all kind of percussion sounds from His progressions Like konga drum...bata drum .sekere e.t.c ..........just to say less

Thank you very much@@anthonyisrael9229

I'm here to learn actually...i'm not making any assumptions@@anthonyisrael9229

Fela Kuti and Tony Allen created the Afrobeat, without s, they never called it afrobeatS. It was a very powerful music inspired in tradicional rythms as Juju, Fuji and Apala music from Nigeria, modern styles as highlife from Ghana and also Jazz from Europe (Fela went to UK before his trip to the States) and USA. And the political and social component of the Afrobeat (without "s") was a result of Fela's contact with the Black Panters Party in the USA through Sandra Isadore. I am astonishing about how so little contemporary africans cultural "referents" have no idea at all about their own cultural history and icons.

@@evafeito5207 don’t care, that shit gets no play in the states

@@jkashdamoneyman5870you are just ignorant and that’s okay 👍

So what ? Everyone got inspiration from somewhere , what’s your point . Yes he got his political inspiration from black panther part and identified that Africans go through the same struggle with the white colonial masters

The question was " who gave afrobeats the name?" Cha!

Stfu... do you have to bring in hate?

You are high on dust

How?
