Fela Kuti

from Acercándonos a escuchar UACh-Sede Puerto Montt

El Afrobeat, es un género musical que nació en Nigeria en la década de los 60’ y 70’ de la mano del gran Fela Kuti. Este género tuvo un gran éxito al combinar elementos de la música tradicional nigeriana como lo es el Yoruba y el Highlife; con elementos de jazz y funk. Fela Kuti es un personaje que no solo se estudia por su carrera musical, si no por ser un personaje que dio voz a los desposeídos de su nación, un rebelde cultural. Nacido en Abeokuta, Nigeria en 1938; provenía de una familia Yoruba prominente, militante del movimiento anticolonial. Herencia que se dejó ver mucho en las complejas letras de sus canciones, pensamiento y activismo político. Desde joven aprendió a tocar varios instrumentos y a finales de la década de los 60’, después de haber estado en Estados Unidos viajo a Inglaterra para estudiar en la Trinity School of Music donde descubre otros géneros como el jazz, el bebop, la salsa y otros ritmos afrocubanos. Dentro de sus composiciones, Kuti mezclaba no solo ritmos musicales, sino también lenguas como el inglés, el yoruba y otros idiomas de nigeria y el Pidgin english (o inglés macarrónico); con lo cual pretendía resaltar la importancia del panafricanismo. Hoy escucharemos de Fela Kuti su tema Trouble Sleep Yanga Wake Am.
