Kuti, Fela
Afrodisiac (green/red Vinyl)
The best known song on Afrodisiac is "Jeun Koku," a satire about gluttony (an indulgence only available to prosperous
Africans). Originally recorded as a single in 1970, it had given Fela his first major hit. In Broken English, the title
translates as "chop and quench," which means "eat and die" in Standard English. It is a stonking dance track. The most
enduring piece, however, may prove to be the closing "Je'Nwi Temi" ("don't gag me"), a critique of the Nigerian
political / military establishment and a defence of free speech
