Grammy-nominated Afrobeat sensation Seun Kuti, alongside Egypt 80, has released their latest single, “Stand Well Well,” now available on all digital platforms.
The track, inspired by Aldous Huxley’s dystopian novel Brave New World, critiques modern society’s conformity and the social hierarchies shaping our world.
The singer’s fiery performance is complemented by a striking trumpet solo from Made Kuti, Seun’s nephew and fellow Afrobeat artist.
“Stand Well Well” is the third single from Seun Kuti & Egypt 80’s upcoming album Heavier Yet (Lays The Crownless Head), set to release on October 4th via Record Kicks.
Following the success of “Dey” featuring Damian Marley and “T.O.P.”, the new single continues Kuti’s tradition of challenging the status quo.
“Everything in the world today looks the same. The world is kind of reminding me of Brave New World,” Seun comments.
With its pulsating rhythms and provocative message, “Stand Well Well” adds a powerful new dimension to Seun Kuti’s musical and social commentary.
The track is now streaming on all platforms.
