Fela Kuti was a complicated dude.
Cultural hero, Pan-Africanist, enemy of the state, lived in a barbed wire compound with what basically amounted to a standing personal army, had dozens of wives some of whom remain devoted advocates of his cult and many who later denounced him as a tyrant.
This book is an interesting resource on a pretty interesting dude.
Oh, and for those who are too ingrained in the world of pop music and can't take all the instrumental jamming, you can always skip to here and get to the bit with the singing. It's a pretty catchy tune.
