Nigerian afrobeat singer, and songwriter, Omorinmade Kuti, professionally known as Made Kuti, has released a new single titled ‘No More Wars’, as one of the offerings off his forthcoming album.

The single was composed, written by Made, and it was produced by GMK and Sodi Marciszewer, who recorded and produced his late grandfather, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti’s last six albums.

Speaking on the motive of the song, Made said, “No More Wars is entirely about temper, control, and focus. It’s about experiences I’ve had that taught me to reflect intentionally before I react.”

“The lyrics are inspired by my father’s consistency in following his path, despite dealing with an overwhelming amount of harsh, untrue, and deliberately cruel people inside and outside of his circle.”

The song features an impressive vocal performance from the multi-instrumentalist, who preaches the need to embrace peace and re-awakening of true values during trying times.

Mitigating emerging risks through compulsory insurance

The 27-year-old’s new music draws from a deep well and understanding of the insecurity and global wars and the Afrobeat storytelling tradition to fuse soulful Afrobeat chords, horns, and voices in creating a unique sound that will be a hit among young and older Nigerians and international audiences alike.

Made Kuti started his musical career in childhood as he played the bass and saxophone with his father’s band, Positive Force. He started touring with the band at the age of 8.
