Ahead of Fela Kuti's induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, as the first African solo artist to be inducted, we welcome members of his family Femi, Seun, and Made, to honor the legend. We hear some favorites of their grandfather and father's discography, along with stories and other picks that were influenced by the pioneer of Afrobeat. We also have a giveaway for tickets to Nick Cave featuring a solo piano performance.
