THE INDOMITABLE MANGWANA

October 26, 2024 - 05:36 AM THE INDOMITABLE MANGWANA. The year is 1963. Tabuley and Mangwana share the leadership of the newly created African Fiesta, an offshoot of the popular African Jazz of Grand Kalle. Tabuley had scouted for a fresh talent, a new singing sensation by the name Mangwana. The young man was only 17 years old. Tabuley invited Nico to come to see the newfound. A wonderful singer he was, as they discovered from the brief audition. The biggest challenge was that he was still a minor and a student in a secondary school. With word doing rounds that the band has a new singing bird, Club Petit Bois was jammed that Saturday, but trouble was lurking. Mangwana's father had sent cops to arrest......

NAKEI NAIROBI LYRICS WITH ENGLISH TRANSLATION

October 24, 2024 - 04:38 PM NAKEI NAIROBI LYRICS WITH ENGLISH TRANSLATION INTRO One of the most listened to Congolese songs in KenyaComposed by Tabuley and Mbilia Bell. The Swahili version, translated by Brazos Mpanga Wa Mpanga. Those who know what rumba is all about know too well that when the theme is to praise a specific person or place, for this case, Nairobi and its government headed by Mzee Moi, a nonrelated story must be created, to provide a narrative, which always has nothing to do with the theme. Solo done by maestro Dino VanguBass by the late Shaba KahambaRhythm Dave MakondeleMi solo Brazos MpangaVocals by Songbird Mbilia Bell NAKEI NAIROBI (I am visiting Nairobi) LYRICS Nayoki......

REMI: ANOTHER SIMARO?

October 20, 2024 - 04:21 PM REMI: ANOTHER SIMARO? Music is just music. Great vocals, great rhymes, and great instrumentation, maybe expertly done guitar works by extremely creative musicians, great saxophone, etc., etc. Music is also meant to be danced to, which explains the void of logic in some lyrics. In fact, some music, like Jazz, does not even have lyrics at all; instead, it is an instrumental conversation between the percussions and the wind instruments. Music remains just that until, one introduces the late Congolese music legend, Simaro Lutumba who introduced a unique aspect of rumba Congolaise, with compositions that are philosophical and analytical. Despite equally having inspiring instrumentation......

UNLUCKY LUCKY: LOVED BY THE WORLD, STOPPED BY A BULLET

October 19, 2024 - 06:25 AM UNLUCKY LUCKY: LOVED BY THE WORLD, STOPPED BY A BULLET. We are living in a crazy world, We we can't know what tomorrow brings, People are dying lie fries everyday, You will only know about it, when a man in a long black coat knocks your door, Because you are his next victim, This is an exerpt from Lucky Dube's song crazy world.

Without recognizing him, three robbers shot at his car, just after he had dropped his children at their uncle's place. Although a......

FERRE'S MUSICAL JOURNEY

October 17, 2024 - 05:37 PM FERRE'S MUSICAL JOURNEY "This is the day. It is finally with us” an ecstatic fan shouts to the media crew, as he runs bare-chested, towards the entrance of the Stade De Martyrs stadium, in Lingwala on the Northern outskirts of Kinshasa. His hands holding a placard with the name Ferre Gola emblazoned on it, he runs forth and back, shouting his voice hoarse. The day was June 24th, the day of the much-anticipated Ferre Gola concert. The excitement was palpable as the carnival mood engulfed the neighborhood. Crowds thronged the facility some in groups, some in isolation, some chanting, and some shouting. The day for the much-awaited Ferre Gola concert had come and fans had......
