About "Yeye Theory Feat. Seun Kuti"
"Yeye Theory" features the 13-piece BANTU ensemble teaming up with Seun Kuti for an Afrobeat tour-de-force. The fast-paced dance floor filler effortlessly covers the entire spectrum of the genre from multilayered grooves to funky guitar riffs and precision-perfect horns in signature BANTU style. Playing with the song's pidgin english title which loosely translates to "Stupid Theory", BANTU & Seun Kuti expose the hypocrisies of racism, western stereotyping of African music, social media and the ineptitude of governments to address the sufferings of the masses. A vocal sample of Fela Kuti is stylishly incorporated at the song’s outro paying homage to the great pan-African maverick’s preferred place for African music.
