About the Book
No longer is African literature, in its dominant thrust, defined by an apologetic or polemical response to the representation of Africa in the colonial ideology, and African thought generally by an effort of reformulation of the African image, in what Valentin Mudimbe has called, in his work The Invention of Africa (1988), “a discourse of succession.” …This new literature, with the states of consciousness it illuminates, thus marks a break with the effort of elaboration of a counter discourse in relation to the colonial imposition that we associate with the work of an earlier generation of African writers and intellectuals.

Arrest the Music: Fela and His Rebel Acts and Politics
Seller: GrammyBooksA lively study of the late Fela Anikulapo-Kuti and a persuasive interpretation of the social context, instrumentation, lyrics, visual art, and people through which he produced his music. Arrest the Music! is a lively musical study of Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, one of Africa’s most recognizable, popular, and controversial musicians. The flamboyant originator of the “Afrobeat” sound and self-proclaimed voice of the voiceless, Fela used music, sharp-tongued lyrics, and derisive humor to challenge the shortcomings of Nigerian and postcolonial African states. Looking at the social context, instrumentation, lyrics, visual art, people, and organizations through which Fela produced his music, Tejumola Olaniyan offers a wider, more suggestive perspective on Fela and his impact on listeners in all parts of the world.
