Description

The Beginning” is the third album by Seun Anikulapo Kuti with Egypt 80, the 14 musicians big band he’s been leading since the death of his father Fela Kuti in 1997.Produced by jazz pianist Robert Glasper, making participation of guests from the American rap scene such as M1 (Dead Prez) or Blitz The Ambassador, a Ghanaian in New York, possible. The voice of German-Nigerian singer Nneka can also be heard on the track “Black Woman". Finally, the French vibraphonist David Neerman adds his personal touch on two tracks ("I.M.F.” and “Black Woman"), enhancing his attention to details that, allied to its firepower, allows “A Long Way To The Beginning” to be a sophisticated and strong album.
