Seun Kuti unleashes new single, Stand Well Well

Son of legendary Fela Anikulapo-Kuti and Grammy-nominated Afrobeat singer, Seun Kuti, has unleashed his latest single titled, Stand Well Well.

Following the success of Dey, which features Damian Marley and T.O.P, Stand Well Well is the third single from Seun Kuti & Egypt 80’s upcoming album, Heavier Yet (Lays The Crownless Head), set for release on October 4, 2024 via Record Kicks. 

Inspired by Aldous Huxley’s dystopian novel, Brave New World, the scorching Afrobeat track takes aim at modern society’s conformity and the social hierarchies shaping today’s world. 

In Stand Well Well, Seun Kuti channels his signature fiery energy to challenge the status quo, comparing today’s world to Huxley’s chilling vision of the future.

“Everything in the world today looks the same. The world is kind of reminding me of Brave New World,” Seun says.

With its pulsating rhythms and thought-provoking message, Stand Well Well is a bold anthem that adds yet another layer to Seun Kuti’s ongoing musical and social revolution.

Meanwhile, Seun’s nephew and fellow Afrobeat musician, Made Kuti, delivers a striking trumpet solo, adding a special touch to the track.

Stand Well Well is currently streaming on all digital platforms.
