Label: Knitting Factory
The kid who inherited Dad's legendary band at 14 is grown up and finally blazing his own trail. Or, rather, slashing and burning his trail. Gone are the meandering grooves of his debut; From Africa With Fury (that title alone should win an award) jumps in and starts blowing things up with the fierce "African Soldier." And every cut after that ignites a similarly pointed fire stoked by Africa 80's always-radiant sound, each sax burst like a knife, the bass curling each lyric into a snarl. Taking on corruption at local and global levels, Kuti's critiques are piercing and furiously funky.
