Description
This special 45 RPM release marks the start of an electrifying new chapter for Seun Kuti & Egypt 80. Teaming up with Femi Koleoso of Ezra Collective, Seun bridges generations and continents while preserving the legendary fire of Egypt 80. Koleoso's production brings a fresh, contemporary pulse to two explosive new tracks that launch Seun's latest sonic and political journey.Side A: Debuted live and propelled into viral status after a blistering Coachella performance, "Na Dem" ("It's Them") finally receives it's definitive studio version - a fierce indictment of the hypocrisy and greed of the global ruling class. Featuring Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine, the track fuses Egypt 80's incendiary horns with Morello's weaponized guitar work, creating a powerful fusion of Afrobeat and radical rock rebellion -a track designed not just to move feet, but to spark global reflection and resistance.Side B: On the flip side, Seun Kuti dives into a pan-African sonic dialogue with "Problems," creating a rhythmic and spiritual bridge between Lagos and Kingston. Featuring Jamaican reggae and dancehall artist Kabaka Pyramid, the track pairs conscious lyrical flow with Seun's gritty vocals over rolling percussion, a propulsive bassline, and hypnotic rhythm produced by Femi Koleoso. "Problems" addresses the systemic challenges facing oppressed communities worldwide in a heavy, grooving anthem of resilience.A collector's essential, this 7" vinyl is more than just a musical release - it is a global protest manifesto pressed into wax.
