Funk-Transcended-A-Tribute-to-William-Onyeabor



Remembering William Onyeabor, the pioneering Nigerian musician and electronic funk legend, his family commemorated what would have been his 79th birthday.

 

Describing his music and spirit as 'eternal,' Charles, Emeka, and Chika Onyeabor, his sons, celebrated the enduring legacy of William Onyeabor in a statement.


They described their father as a visionary, stating, 'Our father was more than just a musician; he was a force of nature, a man who saw the future of sound and embraced it long before the world caught on. His music was a message, a movement, and a testament to the limitless possibilities of African creativity.'

 

A trailblazer in Nigerian music, William Onyeabor, known for hits like “Better Change Your Mind”, “Fantastic Man”, and “Atomic Bomb”, distinguished himself by fusing Afro-funk with electronic synthesizers.


The family ended their tribute by expressing their dedication to preserving his impact, stating, 'The world may have lost our father, but his music and spirit are eternal. We are committed to ensuring that his legacy lives on, inspiring those who dare to dream differently.'
