The son of Fela Kuti, the most legendary afrobeat musician of all-time, Seun Kuti is carrying on the tradition laid out by his father for a new generation. When Fela died of AIDS in 1997, Seun took over as lead singer for his dad's group, Egypt 80--at the age of just 14. Since then, Seun has matured musically into the spiritual successor of his father, leading a new version of Egypt 80 (including several original members) with his saxophone playing and singing. Fans of Fela Kuti and the afrobeat genre in general will want to check out just how impressively Seun has carried the torch of his father's career forward.
