By and large, he spent most of the '80s stepping away from major studio productions, turning to theatrical and indie projects instead. The teen-comedy formula was probably involved him having to make commercial concessions to the studio (if not having the project assigned to him). As far as King Sunny is concerned -- the "world music" market was starting to kick off, and Ade was one of its most popular artists at the time. (Series of albums on Island, with Stevie Wonder producing the last of the batch.) Maybe Altman had heard Ade & his band and wanted them in the film, or maybe it someone at the studio's idea.
