- Fela Kuti – Why Black Man Dey Suffer
- Fela Kuti – Ikoyi Mentality vs Mushin Mentality
‘Why Black Man Dey Suffer’, recorded in 1971, was originally deemed too controversial for release by EMI, his label at the time. Having recently been schooled in the American black power movement and having taken on a new Pan-African worldview, this album served as one of Fela’s first musical soapboxes on which he challenged the colonial injustices and corruption of the ruling elites of his time.
