Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 – Black Times
Album
Having led Egypt 80 since his teens, Fela's youngest son Seun captures the full, ferocious power of the veteran ensemble on Black Times. Blending guest guitar riffs from Carlos Santana with the dense, multi-layered brass harmonies of classic Afrobeat, Seun directs extended, righteous grooves that feel modern, urgent and steeped in deep institutional memory.
