Son of Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, released a hopeful, horn-fueled song, “Na Their Way Be That,” from his upcoming 10th LP, One People One World. “No one can do anything to please these people/ They will always be dissatisfied people,” the bandleader sings over chants and soulful sax lines.
In a statement, Kuti ded His Jazz Rootsescribed the song as “an easy explanation as to why some people act in a negative way … It’s just their nature, and it explains why they should be ignored.”

The whole project comes from a depth that Femi believes should inspire the younger generation in areas that will instigate social change positively. “I’m a father and I love my kids, so I want to give the younger generation a message of hope,” he said. “Despite all our problems, we can create greatness in our lives.”- Femi Kuti,
