Questlove teamed up with Grammy winning African diva Angelique Kidjo, electropop sensations tUne-yArDs, and emcee Akua Naru for the Red Hot Organization’s upcoming Red Hot + FELA compilation, the second volume in their all-star tribute to Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti. “Lady” is a classic originally recorded by the Afrobeat legend in his plea for African women to not to try to live up to European standards. The all-stars rework of the tune for women in the world today, particularly African women, who will have an important role in ending the AIDS epidemic.
