“I chose Fela's London Scene because I enjoy dancing to Fela Kuti's music. I guess I was 18 when I first started listening to it and y'know, 'Zombie' is kind of a really long song, but I could get a good dance in on it. And by the end of the song, I feel like I've been transported to another place.”Watch this moment
