Olufela Olufemi Anikulapo Kuti, popularly known as Femi Kuti is an award-winning Nigerian musician and the oldest son of legendary Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti.
Femi was born in London on 16 June 1962 to Fela and Remi Kuti and grew up in the former Nigerian capital, Lagos. His mother soon left his father, taking Femi to live with her. In 1977, though, Femi chose to move in with his father. Femi eventually became a member of his father's band.
Like his father, Femi has shown a strong commitment to social and political causes throughout his career, but he differs from his father in his religious views.
