Fela was more popular in europe than america,european welcome him and his music style but american never did,even Femi and Seun kuti feel more relax to perform in europe than the so called america.

Sorry Sir. I was only answering the question someone posted about why was Fela not more popular in the USA.

Sorry i meant to say "Credited", and not "Created"

I agree with you, Fela was not never a commercial success as the other artist you mentioned. But abami eda would be remembered for generations to come. He will be created for igniting the minds of those who break Nigeria (i.e. more than 10% of theAfrican population) out of its current state. And thats what we celebrate. No how many records Miles Davis sold. Americans can join the celebration if they want; but it is not a prerequisite

Fela is for the emancipation of human beings and I dnt understand how you can compare Sade and Seal with Fela. Fela has the opportunity to leave Nigeria and stay abroad but he wants to be in the mix of what his people are going through. I love Seal and Sade music and what impact to they have? Seal during the Obama compaign remade an oldskool song. Fela is authentic in all he does. What is intnational success? when ur people suffers. Please Give honor when hour is due.Princess Adekunbi
