In a career spanning over twenty years, Femi Kuti has been able to find his own voice while preserving the memory of his father, Fela Kuti. The New York Times recently praised Femi for having "carried the legacy admirably." On his new album, Africa For Africa, Femi articulates a raw and forceful call to the long tradition of Afrobeat. Africa For Africa is in many ways a return to Femi's roots. He recorded the album in the same studio where he produced his first recordings with his father and his breakthrough solo album, Shoki Shoki. This recording is deliberately less produced than its predecessor, Day By Day, which was released to high acclaim and a Grammy nomination in 2009. Africa For Africa aims to present Afrobeat in its roughest and purest form.
