Glad to see this man . I was still telling a friend that we enjoyed his music while younger then . I never believed he’s still alive until am seeing him now . I enjoyed his music while growing up . God bless him.
Olu Fajemirokun is very good friend in the early 80s, in Papa Ajao area where I was living then. He was the one that played when I have my twins then 8 days. He played free without kobo from me. Very humble, generous and friendly. You may not remembered me again. But we knew ourselves very well. I lived very close to Baba Commander house in Papa Ajao in those days
I love this man the first musician ever watched his documentary that speak about everyone in music with respect either old ,same age or young. God bless you Olu Fajeminrokun. From Ile - Oluji ( OIJEFON ).
Uncle Olu Fajemirokun, it's been a long time. He was dating one of my besties in 1992 and both were coming to my house for visits. And i was having a good time at Skindles Club on Ojuelegba Rd on Fridays where he used to have his Friday shows. Good man and loves my children then. I live in New Jersey now.
I met this man some years ago at a party in Maryland. As soon as I entered the hall, I saw him singing and I knew him right away it was him. He sang the same way he used to sing and the whole hall erupted.
I met him in 2000 in Minnesota he used to work as a paramedics he brought medical equipment to crystal health care center in CRYSTAL MINNESOTA I used to work there he’s a very humble man
A fantastic man, very humble. Reminded me of how I got my traveling ticket out of Nigeria in 1974 via Henry Steven travel agency, corner of Balogun and Broadway.
Uncle Olu is a good man i remembered when he came to Los Angeles , i remembered i was his “ stage Manager ” guy , this was 2006, very good man . Hes thesame kind man in real lifr . God bless you sir
I really enjoyed this interview. Olú Fajemirokun is a comple gentleman. Very honest with his responses, just like baba Adedara Arihunraloja, Feyisara ( former drum set player for Lagbaja) & Apola king. May the soul of Dayo Kujore rest in peace. Every Juju musician you have interviewed attested to his prowess on guitars, not to mention his sonorous voice. Agbaletu keep it up.
What about the likes of Ahuja Bello, Dele Abiodun etc. You forgot to ask him about his Friday gigs at Skinless Night Club on Ojuelegba Rd, around Yaba. Nice and cool guy ni Uncle Olu Fajemirokun. My best friend then was his girlfriend and they were frequent in my house. Nice memories, though!!.😊
Olu Fajemirokun left Nigeria when he was really making waves, He won best juju artist in Nigeria music award in the year 1992 with juju Samba,defeating Shina Peters Dancing Time and Dele Taiwo Magic Moment.I love his obey style of music due to his fast tempo heavy transitional percussion(Omole,Bata,Conga)
@@boluwajiolalekan4173 lol. You are the liar here or maybe your brain is failing you due to old age. Dancing time was weak. Ask people to na, Shina's 89 and early 90s album, it will be Ace, Shinamania, and Experience. Dancing time didn't make the cut.
This is an epic interview thank you Agbaletu. Baba Olu, your humility is top notch and worthy of emulation, God bless you sir and long may you live in good health and sound mind.
If you listen very well he said if you have money so how can u make money in a place where system is not working .where the people that bebefit are poiiticians and their cronies. Listen to his last statement " gbogbo nnkan ti e n fi agbara ati agidi se ni naija waa naga mu lowo kan ni america
Agbaletu,can you pls help us interview Mama Abike Kubura Adebisi that Yusuf Olatunji praised. I heard Mama is still alive. May she live long. Some important and notable fans of these musicians could as well be brought on board this is an important program. Kudos bro, we enjoy you.

Don’t mind Shina Peter. He was sarcastic with some of his statements during the interview. Shina is a great musician no doubt and I love him to high heavens but a display of immaturity is which was evident in his early years is still very much with him. You can see simplicity and humility in Olu Fajemirokun (even thought I’m not much of his fans as I am for SSP)
But chief Henry oloyede fajemirokun was from ile-oluji and this uncle olu is from ifewara, how are they now related ?. Because chief fajemirokun was the yegbata of ile-oluji when he was alive
Agbaman, do you see how Olufajemieokun is admitting to have accepted and used songs and arrangements written by his bandsmen, Artist such as Shina Peters will never admit to that and would never give others credit for their contributions to his music.
@sikiruoyediran2333 0 seconds ago This's a well coordinated interview session and I want to say Sir Olu Fajemirokun is a very humble personality even up till this current time.More grace to you Sir!
