Sunday Videos...

Last night's episode of Tambour d'Afrique and Part I to the Zaiko Langa Langa Special will be posted later today. Until then enjoy these videos...

Young singers for Werrason's new movement Temps Present aka Mayi Ya Sika, (L to R) Fabrice, Cafe Rhoum & Deplik
I look forward to hearing them on record:


Le Poete Lutumba Simarro celebrated his 71st birthday recently. Last year he threw a big party for his 70th birthday in Kinshasa. Alain Mpela takes Djo Mpoyi's place and sings Lutumba's hit KADIMA. He really does the song justice.



Now watch Djo Mpoyi bless the song live. He left that show with a lot of money lol
His voice is amazing.

His Iron voice makes me see the Kate Fronco on the stage back in 1980s in Nairobi in Kenya

i love when i find these old gems and am very excited to have found this blog. Am a congolese music fanatic of sorts. I especially like the old stuff - franco, sam mwangana, pepe kalle etc. But the new folks like Ferre, Werrason, Fally are pretty good too.
