Nigerian music icons Davido and Femi Kuti stole the spotlight at a star-studded Grammy Week honurs party, dancing and mingling in vibrant Afrocentric attire to celebrate the late Fela Kuti’s posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award.
A buzzing video clip from the non-televised tribute captured the duo grooving amid an enthusiastic crowd, paying homage to Fela – the Afrobeat pioneer and first African musician to receive this prestigious Grammy honour.
Fela’s 50-year legacy of activism-fueled rhythms has shaped global sounds, influencing giants like Paul McCartney and Jay-Z.
