Fela Kuti – Gentleman

Gentleman is a 1973 studio album by Nigerian Afrobeat musician Fela Kuti. It was written and produced by Kuti and recorded with his Africa 70 band. The cover artwork’s depiction of a monkey’s head superimposed on a suited body is a reference to the album’s title track, which Kuti composed as a commentary on the colonial mentality of Africans who adhered to European customs and clothing.
