Good job, OP, you almost managed to trigger me. Almost.

fela kuti's actually a very innovative musician for combining jazz rhythms with african rhythms in a comprehensive way, because before him it was either just jazz with congas or just a latin beat with brass and saxes.

but i agree that most people are just blindly namedropping him without understanding on a rhythmic level what he accomplished

like this guy
>>63343252
by the way he types you can just tell he doesnt know anything about either african music or jazz and likes Kuti because his music sounds "cool"

>>63343532
how do I gain understanding senpai?

Jeffery Mangus and the Memeful Lads

>>63343757
read about the history of african music, jazz, and the movement that fused the two

>>63343772
prove that track 8 isn't legitimately harsh as fuck

>>63343125
>THIS IS REVOLUTION MUSIC
read his biography, he was literally a revolutionary : that's why army put him in jail several times, harassed him for a decade, raided & burnt his house, killed his mother, etc.

about his music, this anon has already stated the obvious >>63343532

>>63343532
>likes Kuti because his music sounds "cool"
>nooo stop liking things

>african rhythms
>all of Africa makes the same music

You're as dumb as he is.

>>63344147
when on earth did I say that all of Africa makes the "same" music? Are you pretending to be shocked that African music can be generalized by very distinctive cross-rhythms, or are you just totally oblivious to the qualities of the music from the African continent?

where do i start with Mr. Kuti

>>63344321
Zombie, Yellow Fever, Mr. Follow.Follow

>>63344219
You're only proving your ignorance again.

Thats like saying EVERY type of music to come out of the USA can be generalized by very distinctive cross-rhythms.

The music of Tunisia is unbelievably different from that of Democratic Republic of Congo just as memerap is from folk rock.

Stop posting.

>classifying African music by modern day political borders
hahaha had a hearty laugh at that
anyways Tunisia, with most of Northern Africa, is an outlier when it comes to folk musics because of the near-constant occupation from European and Muslim powers, not sure if you knew that. Also I was discussing generalizations based on folk musics and you brought up modern day pop music, not sure how you thought that helped your case.

do you not know what a generalization is?

>>63344437
>Take one step over a border

Literal retard.

>>63344469
>backpedalling like mad

Just fucking admit it you treated the entire continent of Africa like it was all just Nigeria.

>>63344469
>>63344489
do you even know how ignorant you sound? I bet you're both underage.

>>63344505
I'll fucking admit that I treated saharan africa, west africa, and sub-saharan africa like it was all of africa

>he thinks that cross rhythms are isolated to Nigeria of all places
>he thinks modern political borders have any bearing on centuries-old folk musics

>>63344437
