Nigerian musician Fela Kuti is regarded as the pioneer of Afrobeat, a powerful blend of jazz, funk and traditional African rhythms. With songs like "Water No Get Enemy" and "Zombie", he used music as a political weapon against corruption and oppression. His performances were known for their energy and message of freedom. A fun fact is that Fela Kuti once married 27 women in a single day, all members of his dance troupe.
