2 Face Reveals How Bob Marley, Fela & Majek Inspired Him
Innocent Idibia, aka 2Face is, no doubt, one of Nigeria's most versatile and successful singers. This talented artiste attributes his success to three men who have deeply influenced him: Bob Marley, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti and Majek Fashek.
Fortunately, Fashek is still alive and his music has continued to impact positively on the much younger 2Face.
“I love to listen to Majek's recorded works any time,” said 2Face, who came to the limelight with his monster hit, African Queen, in 2004.
“I'm passionate about reggae because it allows me to express myself without fear or favour. Reggae is socially and politically conscious music like Fela's Afrobeat.”
