Femi Kuti: Shoki Shoki CD Track Listing
Femi Kuti
Shoki Shoki (1998)
(P) & (C) 1998 Barclay, a Polygram company\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nNow that he's assumed the mantle of Afro-Beat superstardom from his father, Femi Kuti seems much \nmore assured on his third album, Shoki Shoki. Femi is just as focused on political and social situations \nas Fela Kuti, as displayed on several tracks here ("Blackman Know Yourself," "What Will Tomorrow \nBring," "Victim of Life," "Look Around"). Also like his father, he never lets the lyrically conscious \nmaterial get in the way of pushing irresistible grooves. From the openers "Truth Don Die" and "Beng \nBeng Beng" - both of which were passed off to dance remixers including Masters at Work and Black \nScience Orchestra - to later tracks like "Sorry Sorry," Femi is a strict bandleader who knows how to \nget the most out of his charges. In fact, the only real stylistic difference between father and son is the \nfact that songs by Femi are shorter and poppier than those by Fela.\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
