Femi Kuti & The Positive Force announce 2022 tour ft Mádé Kuti

Last year, Femi Kuti and Mádé Kuti — the son and grandson, respectively, of Afrobeat icon Fela Kuti — released Legacy +: Stop The Hate which is up for two 2022 Grammys. The record coincided with Mádé Kuti's solo debut, For(e)ward, which were both released by Partisan Records on the same day. If you haven't checked those records out you can stream them below.
