Fela Kuti - Music is the Weapon

Composer, Afrobeat pioneer and human rights activist, Nigeria’s Fela Kuti (1938-1997) is often described as the African Bob Marley.
In 1982, Fela discussed his life and work and performed some of his
influential songs for this documentary by Stéphane Tchal Gadjieff and
Jean-Jacques Flori. Both a fascinating profile of a great artist of
modern Africa and an exploration of the political context of his work,
MUSIC IS THE WEAPON features Fela performing some of his best-known
songs, including “ITT,” “Army Arrangement” and “Authority Stealing.”
