En 2018, Newen Afrobeat vuelve a Nigeria para compartir con la familia Kuti y participar de Felabration Lagos por segunda vez. Unos meses más tarde, se produce un nuevo encuentro entre Seun y Newen Afrobeat, esta vez en Santiago de Chile con motivo de Lollapalooza 2019, donde en los días posteriores se graba esta sesión en vivo en La Makinita en una sola toma. La canción escogida es Zombie, lanzada por Fela Kuti el año 1977 y que habla de la brutalidad de la policía contra su propio pueblo. Una especie de premonición con lo que sucedería en octubre de ese mismo año en Chile donde tras el estallido social más relevante de las últimas décadas, la policía chilena torturó, mutiló y mató a cientos de personas que se manifestaban por un Chile más justo.
In 2018, Newen Afrobeat returns to Nigeria to share with the Kuti family and participate in Felabration Lagos for the second time. A few months later, there is a new meeting between Seun and Newen Afrobeat, this time in Santiago de Chile on Lollapalooza 2019, and in the following days this session was recorded live at “La Makinita” in a single take. The chosen song is Zombie, released by Fela Kuti in 1977 and which speaks of the brutality of the police against their own people. A kind of premonition with what would happen in October of that same year in Chile where, after the most relevant social outbreak in recent decades, the Chilean police tortured, mutilated and killed hundreds of people who were demonstrating for a more just Chile.
