Multiple Grammy-nominated Afrobeat pioneer Femi Anikulapo-Kuti is set to release his highly anticipated eleventh studio album, Journey Through Life, on April 25th, 2025. The announcement follows the successful release of three singles from the album – “Politics Don Expose Dem” in November,  “After 24 Years” in February, and “Oga Doctor” in March.

The ten-track album promises to deliver Femi’s signature blend of pulsating rhythms, horn-driven melodies, and socially conscious lyrics that have defined his illustrious career spanning over four decades. With tracks like “Corruption Na Stealing,” “Think My People Think,” and “Chop and Run,” Femi continues his tradition of using music as a powerful vehicle for social commentary and political activism.

Speaking about the new album, Femi Kuti states: “Journey Through Life represents my unwavering commitment to the Afrobeat tradition as a weapon against injustice as I continue to document our collective struggle through rhythm and truth. Songs like “Politics Don Expose Dem” and “Corruption Na Stealing” confront the same systems of oppression my father fought against decades ago. This album carries that revolutionary spirit forward.”

As the eldest son of Afrobeat founder Fela Kuti, Femi has carved his distinctive path in music while honouring his father’s legacy. Since his debut album No Cause For Alarm in 1989, Femi has consistently evolved the Afrobeat genre, infusing it with elements of jazz, funk, and traditional Nigerian music to create a progressive sound uniquely his own.
