Lagbaja The Great!
He is the Afrobeat act many acclaimed Afrobeat kings think they are. Lagbaja it is who took Fela’s Afrobeat and added agidigbo, Fuji and all the local rhythms many were scared to absorb.
Lagbaja it is who made his genre of matured music attractive to every young person and had everyone and their parents bending their backs the Konko Bellow way.
He was that guy who delivered love ballards everyone wanted to sing along to.
And yes, he has always been vocal against bad governance just like FELA.
Lagbaja is that musician every Fela wannabe should learn from.
