four years pass...

I can't school you on William Onyeabor, but I can advise you to listen to Itadi - Watch Your Life (Togo, 1977)

nine months pass...

Why late at night does ILM get all William Onyeabored
Or mooged out

The production is all 2D and flat but precise and perfect, and more than that it feels intentional and does not feel like a limitation, it gives all the feeling, and like a man doing all the instruments, it's genius really. Mammane Sani and Francis Bebey probably, both of which have a connection with Ghana, and mixing it with afro-funk / dance.

From the doc:
He's a nice guy... but
A boy sang for him and the boy claimed he wasn't paying him royalties when due, and accordingly.
He went to William and claimed that William drove him off with a pistol
So he went to the police. When he came back, the police sought for the pistol. They didn't find the pistol and the guy was charged with giving false information to the police. And sentenced.

Tough !
