A LEGEND

"The rhythm, the sounds, the tonality,

the chord sequences, the individual

effect of each instrument and each

section of the band - I'm talking about a

whole continent in my music."

"“I don't tell lies about anybody. That's

why i win all my wars.”

“The music of Africa is big sound: it's the

sound of a community.”

"“My people are scared of the air

around them, they always have an

excuse not to fight for freedom.”

“Music is a weapon of the future / music

is the weapon of the progressives /

music is the weapon of the givers of

life.”

“I want peace. Happiness. Not only for

myself. For everybody.”

“The secret of life is to have no fear.”

“I hold death in my pouch, I cannot die.”

"Being African didn't mean anything to

me until later in my life." -- Fela Kuti
