Femi Kuti Releases Video For His Latest Single, ‘One People, One World’

A few months ago, the legendary Femi Kuti announced his 10th studio album and released the titular track, “One People, One World”. Sonically, the track is classic Femi Kuti — resounding horns and heavy percussion — laced with strong and powerful lyrics that discuss prejudice.

To bring these lyrics to life, the Grammy nominee has just released a music video for the lead single. Directed by Ali Meshbahi & Sodi Marciszewer, it includes clips of Femi Kuti and his band performing at Felabration and also some footage of police violence, natural disasters and more results of negativity.

Speaking with Billboard about the album, Femi Kuti said:

“I hope this album brings joy, love, equal opportunity, justice, peace, understanding and togetherness to the world.”

The 12-track album, which was recorded almost entirely in Lagos with his band, The Positive Force, is set to be released on February 23. The album is available for pre-order right here.
