Michel Boyibanda (February 22, 1940 – October 9, 2024) was a Congolese soukous recording artist, vocalist, and composer. Born in Mokouangou, Republic of the Congo, he started his musical career in 1958 with the Negro Band in Brazzaville. He was also an early member of the Bantous De La Capitale, joining their first lineup in 1959. In 1964, he moved to Léopoldville, which is now Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, to join the celebrated Congolese Rumba band TPOK Jazz, led by François Luambo Makiadi. He established himself as a prominent singer with TPOK Jazz, with whom he recorded several songs including "Ata Na Yebi" and "Samba Toko Samba" in 1966, and later "Zando Ya Tipo-Tipo" and "Nzete Esololaka Na Moto Te." He left the band in 1967, but returned in 1972, featuring in the bolero "Gege Yoka." He was also known as a great showman and choreographer in the group's concerts. After leaving TPOK Jazz again in 1977, he went back to Brazzaville and co-founded Ryco Jazz with Loko Masengo. Boyibanda continued to perform and compose until he suffered the first of three strokes in 2015, which led to a decline in his health. He died on October 9, 2024, at the Brazzaville University Hospital at the age of 84.
