Femi Kuti - Africa Will Be Great Again lyrics

{Verse} Can you believe there was a time in Nigeria, the exchange was 2 Dollars to one Naira? (Can you believe?) Cost of living was cheap, education at all level was also free (Can you believe?) That time one Naira na plenty money, one thousand go make you feel like king (Can you believe?) Two hundred and fifty naira go fly you out of the country (Can you believe?) Nigerians were profiting from the oil, many jubilating on the dance floor (Can you believe?) Our father “Fela” cited corruption and wonder case economy destruction (Can you believe?) Say with all our Oil money, too many Nigerians were suffering and poor (Can you believe?) instead make our leaders listen, them beat am and lock am for prison (Can you believe?) Using austerity and inflation to cover corruption and stealing (Can you believe?) Political criminals walk around free, living the Country easy (Can you believe?) {Chorus} Africa will be great again, where peace and love will reign (Africa will be great again) Africa will be great again when corruption stops and our Country politicians stop to dey chop (Africa will be great again) Africa will be great again when we have first class institutions, infrastructures and not political destruction (Africa will be great again) Africa will be great again na (Africa will be great again) (?) (Africa will be great again) Stronger and greater Africa (Africa will be great again) be inspired, don’t be tired (Africa will be great again) Don’t be tired, be inspired (Africa will be great again) Africa will be great again (Africa will be great again) Africa will be great again Africa will be great again (Africa will be great again) Africa will be great again (Africa will be great again) (?) (Africa will be great again) Stronger and greater Africa (Africa will be great again) be inspired, don’t be tired (Africa will be great again) Don’t be tired, be inspired (Africa will be great again) Africa will be great again (Africa will be great again) Africa will be great again

I normally don't criticize artists, but come on. You don't have a tech guy on your DJ set at COACHELLA when you don't know how to do it? They must be paying her like $1 million to DJ and she can't even bring a tech person that knows how to fix a double tempo issue.

Also the bible verse into LLM messiah complex bit at the beginning removes all sympathy.

If a performance is going badly, typically you don't want to apologize in the middle of it. And if you do, just do it once, not 6 times.

Highly recommend this album. The topic is

Aside from the powerful topic, the album is all in the same key and has like 10 distinct, amazing grooves on similar chords. This plus the addition of several interludes gives the impression that it isn't just a few songs, but it's actually all part of one longer work. Lucy's voice is amazing, and her piano arrangements are KILLER.

The audio production (especially creative techniques) are to die for as well. Excitingly beautiful reverb, and on the track Dusty Frames there is this warbly effect on the piano that sounds like it was badly compressed to MP3 which brings back major nostalgia for me.

You can listen on Bandcamp for free, but 8 pounds/10 USD is a steal for this record.

I wanted to buy the signed vinyl but shipping is over $20 to the US. The album cover is CLASSIC style, though.

Favorite Tracks: Over When It's Over, Dusty Frames

Time signature 9/8 and 10/8

Please listen to this shit it's my current favorite song. Absolutely tasty synth, amazing drums, and uplifting chords. Complete with a killer bass solo.

Also a sick men's soccer win by SA against Cape Verde by incredible goalkeeping.

This Next Fest is the best I've seen yet! List any cool game demos or trailers here.

My standouts:

Berserk Boy - Mega-Man trope game that looks to have great platforming and run + gun gameplay and pixel art.
Death of the Reprobate - Midieval art collage point and click game.
Bride Into the Cave - Horror puzzle game about a minority girl in ancient China trying to save herself, and a myth about an cave that houses a deity who names a girl and her soul disappears from the the mortal realm. The trailer music was incredible and the art was also stunning.
Hauntii - Monochromatic (or sometimes a few shades of the same color) game in which you play a ghost and you possess various objects and animals to make progress. Casual / Adventure
Chasing the Unseen - Shadow of the colossus type game where you climb impossibly massive animals like snakes and Octopi in a surreal world.
Ultros - Psychedelic Metroidvania with an unbelievable 2d art style where you "wake up stranded on The Sarcophagus, a Cosmic uterus holding an ancient demonic being.
