Made Kuti Releases Sophomore Album, Announces Listening Party at Afrikan Shrine
Afrobeat sensation Made Kuti has officially released his much-anticipated sophomore album, solidifying his place as one of the leading voices in contemporary African music. The project, a powerful fusion of rhythm, activism, and heritage, showcases his growth as a multi-instrumentalist and socially conscious artist.
Coming from the iconic Kuti lineage, Made doesn’t just ride on the legacy of his father, Femi Kuti, and grandfather, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti—he’s carving a unique path with a modern take on Afrobeat. The new album features tracks that tackle political and emotional themes, offering both groove and thought-provoking messages. It continues the narrative of hope, identity, and resistance, with each song rich in instrumentation and lyrical depth.
To celebrate the album’s release, Made Kuti is hosting a special listening party at the legendary Afrikan Shrine. The event is expected to draw fans, cultural enthusiasts, and fellow musicians to experience the album live in a space that has long been the heartbeat of Afrobeat in Nigeria.
The Afrikan Shrine, located in Ikeja, Lagos, holds deep cultural significance, and hosting the listening party there is not just symbolic—it’s a full-circle moment that ties his new work to the roots of the genre. Guests can expect an electrifying night of music, live band performances, and an intimate insight into the creative process behind the album.
With this sophomore release, Made Kuti reaffirms his commitment to pushing the boundaries of Afrobeat while staying true to its core essence. The album is now available across all major streaming platforms.
