Na Poi captures Fela Kuti and Africa 70 at their electrifying best, combining pulsing grooves with vibrant horn arrangements and Tony Allen's legendary drumming. Originally released in the mid-1970s, the album stands as a bold statement within Fela's groundbreaking Afrobeat legacy, blending jazz, soul, and funk influences in a fearless, innovative soundscape.
This release features a later version of the infamous "Na Poi," where Fela fearlessly explores adult themes with unfiltered candor. With its audacious energy and irresistibly funky rhythms, Na Poi remains a standout moment in Fela Kuti's celebrated catalog and an essential listen for anyone drawn to the infectious pulse of international jazz and funk.
