Born in 1982, the youngest son of the great Nigerian Fela Anikulapo Kuti is well on his way to assuming the huge mantle of his father’s legacy. Seun Kuti has been performing on stage since he was nine, when he would open with his father’s band Egypt 80. The saxophonist-singer continues to play with this pioneering group and has modernised the Afrobeat style Fela invented in the Sixties. Like his half-brother Femi, with whom he has a bitter rivalry, he has done much to internationalise his father’s unique music style. In 2008 he released his debut album Many Things.
