Genre
Afrobeat
Seun Kuti is a musician, singer and saxophonist, and one of the leading figures of contemporary Afrobeat. As the youngest son of Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, he continues his father's musical and political legacy. Since 1997, he has been leading Egypt 80, his father's legendary band. His music combines the powerful sound of Afrobeat with socially conscious lyrics and Pan-African ideals. Beyond the stage, Kuti is also actively involved in campaigning against social injustice and police brutality.

With his latest album, “NA DEM” (November 2026), Seun Kuti opens a new chapter. The six-track record was produced by Femi Koleoso (Ezra Collective) and features guest appearances by Tom Morello (Rage Against the Machine) and Kabaka Pyramid.

Live, Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 blend driving Afrobeat rhythms with influences from jazz, funk and contemporary sounds, creating a powerful and energetic musical interplay.
