Having been long-mooted since 2017, Foals frontman Yannis Philippakis has finally shared the music he made with the late, great Fela Kuti drummer Tony Allen. Philippakis invited NME down to Damon Albarn's 13 Studios in London to talk us through his new new collaborative project Yannis & The Law, the "Parisian protest spirit" that runs through the EP 'Lagos Paris London', getting high and political with Kuti, the future of Foals, and having a fan in 'Friends' icon David Schwimmer.
