Ludlow House

“Music is a weapon.” For Fela Kuti, those weren’t just words. His songs called out dictators by name, rallied the oppressed, and turned rhythm into resistance. At last Tuesday’s conversation at Ludlow House, @jadabumrad explored how Fela Kuti used his Afrobeat sound as a tool of defiance against injustice in Nigeria. His songs aren’t just for lighting up the dance floor; they are political manifestos set to irresistible rhythms. Do you believe music can be a weapon? If so, how? Let us know your thoughts in the comments. 🎷✊
