Arrest the music! : Fela and his rebel art and politics /

More than a biography about Africa's most controversial and celebrated musician, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, Olaniyan's book is an anatomy of the way music, rebellion, and political activism can intertwine so tightly that none may be considered on its own.
