I recommend this excellent podcast (episode) that is dedicated to going over his life and impact. Incredible person and story!

There was also a Strong Songs episode about Fela Kuti back in November 2025:

It's very good, but in the end I was disappointed with how uncritical it was.

I bought the vinyl reissue of The Best of the Black President.

I think it was a mistake that Fela's cousin's criticisms were only briefly mentioned.

As well as leaving Seun Keuti unchecked after screaming "bitch, get me a pen!".

I also found it funny that they used Barack Obama's name in the marketing release but you only ever hear about ~30 seconds from him!
