It sounds like he was far from a model father too. He refused to teach his son music, insisting that he would achieve success on his own (he was not wrong). When Femi made his first solo record, 1989’s No Cause for Alarm, Fela went around saying that he didn’t like it. His son was rarely the focus of his attention while he was waging his one-man war against the juntas, or ping-ponging between wives. Femi says he doesn’t know whether Fela even felt paternal affection – perhaps an after-effect, he wonders, of his fiercely strict upbringing. “He admired his mother, she was there for his fight, but [their relationship wasn’t] intimate hugging and all that,” says Femi. “My father said he got 3,000 strokes. The slogan was, ‘if you spare the rod, spoil the child’.” Femi was rarely the focus of Fela's attention while he was waging his one-man war against the juntas Roll out the remaining cookie dough to cover the pie.

On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out the larger piece of dough until it is large enough to fit the base and sides of the cake tin, with a tiny bit of overhang. Press it into the tin. (Don't worry if the dough tears as you lift it into the tin, just press it into place in an even layer.) When Princess Toadstool states, "Next stop, the real world!" at the beginning of the episode, her right ear is flashing. Although some things have moved on. One of Made’s songs is called Young Lady, about the plight of women who are sexually harassed by lecturers in Nigerian universities. It ends in a message of self-love, which isn’t the sort of thing you’d imagine Fela, a vocal anti-feminist, writing. “Maybe not,” he laughs. Fela’s regressive attitude towards women is part of his complex legacy, though the Kutis say that such troubling aspects of his life don’t overshadow his place in the pantheon of musical renegades. “He did significantly more good than he did anything controversial,” says Made. “His music alone was superb, he was a genius,” adds Femi.

There are unanswered questions, but they have helped Femi to do things differently when it comes to his children. “I understood my father, I understood his fight, but I never understood why he put everybody before his family,” he says. “I know what it means to share your father. I know what is to be rejected. So the minute I started my family, I gave them the best.”

Here are step-by-step instructions you can follow if you want your kids to make their very own cootie catcher. What You Need Despite Koopa telling Cheatsy he is going to help him capture Milli Vanilli, Cheatsy does not do anything to help him; he only appears in the Doomship.

His grandfather came to his naming ceremony and called him “Afolabi”, meaning “born into greatness”, though his “first real connection” with Fela was when his dad handed him his entire discography and said: “Learn the horn lines.” Now Made has played every instrument on his album. In 2014 he followed in Fela’s footsteps to Trinity Laban conservatoire in London. There, he befriended young jazz artists such as fellow saxophonist Cassie Kinoshi and Ezra Collective’s Femi Koleoso, who shared an affinity for Afrobeat. “In Lagos, the first question among people my age would be, ‘Do you like women like your grandfather?’” says Made. But in London, “I met so many peers who were influenced by his music and the legacy of his struggle.” After being transformed into accountants, Rob and Fab are threatened again to be turned into beetles.

In both the beginning of the concert and the ending, a sign outside mistakenly says "Preseting Milli Vanilli" instead of "Presenting Milli Vanilli". Ken Kolb says that he spent most of his life as a traveling salesman, and the years he noticed how air blowers in public restrooms were replacing old paper towel dispensers. While the new technology does have it advantages, it also prevents people from using the paper they would wipe their hands with after washing them to open the bathroom door on their way out. This he claims increases the risk or re-contamination, so he took it upon himself to come up with a solution.

Or perhaps simply the sort of jocular pseudo-classical formation popular in the slang of those times, with the first element suggesting Greek kata-. Femi is 58 now and his own eldest son, Made (pronounced “Mah-day”), is 25. Made had heard the stories but seeing Fela!, the 2008 Broadway musical, along with the documentaries that have since immortalised Fela’s life, was something else. “I knew how brutal the raids were, but to visualise them is very different,” he explains, “it really impacted me.” He says that the injustice gave him purpose as a musician, to be “righteous” just like his forefathers. “It’s one of the things that drives me,” he adds. “I don’t think I can forgive those past events.” Ace Magic Wand Factory • First Mushroom Bank • Kastle Koopa • Mushroom Castle • Mushroom Kingdom Orphanage • Mushroom Kingdom Treasury • Mushroom Land Central Library • Pipe Land Treasury • Temple of Gloom
