RIP MAYAULA MAYONI



Last week on Wednesday, May 26th we lost another Congolese music legend. Mayuala Mayoni was a composer and guitarist who has written notable hits for Franco & TP OK Jazz ( "Cherie Bondowe", "Nabali Misere", "Momi", etc), Mpongo Love (her smash hit "Ndaya"), Tshala Muana ("Nasi Nabali" which songstress Meje 30 has remade for the Tshala Muana album "Sikila"; I posted the video yesterday) and much more.

Our friends @ Global Groovers have posted his album "La Machine a Tube" for download. You may find it HERE

He was a great talent whose influence spanned decades. He will be missed. May his soul rest. Enjoy these videos in his honor:
