Higher Consciousness

After his father's death (Fela Kuti), Seun inherits a mythical band, Egypt80, which he goes on fighting with.
As a music conductor, he throws his frantic beats against multinational companies. His brass instruments fight against injustice and the repeated frictions of the strings bite the bribery of the African leaders and elsewhere in the world.
Seun Kuti preaches a collective understanding, a HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS.
Music is a weapon and he holds it firmly.
