i am very interested. any info you got i want it lol

No one deserves a bio until Le Grand Mopao gets one.

Ambulance, Kabuya, CafèRhoum, Lobeso, Sarah Solo, Bicorine Makaba, Pajo

Looking forward to this series. Pliz shade more light on Taddet De Monticules's father Elba who am aware was with Bana OK for sometime!? Is he still active musically?

Archos, would u mind also a small Bio of The late Deo Muana Matete? Was listening to A La Une Mwalimu today and just released(my opinion) since Patcho Star, Viva la Musica had only averages drumer(Maradona y compris) but Deo gave another Énergie to Viva! And looking at that Stade Des Martyrs performance.....Wow, gone too soon

SFR.. Le meilleur drummer de l’Afrique. He and Titina were on another level late-90’s until Deo’s tragic passing

One thing I learned early on is that the best drummers are the ones that drum with a big smile on their face

PLICK LUANGOMBA NKOKA AKA DEPLICK POMBA

 plick was born on 27th of april in 1987 in kinshasa and grew up in the area of kasavubu
his passion for music arrived around 1996 when he started following his mother who was singing in a luba protestant choir and at the same time he discovers football in the streets with classmates
coming from a very modest family he will often be sent out of class for lack of school fees which he will try to fight against starting some street jobs but he will often be bullied when he finishes working as he is so short and skinny
but situation improves for him as he starts growing,he will be sent to a boarding school by an uncle where he discovers martial arts and toughens up a bit
one year later as the uncle dies he has to return to his parents' house and will then starts singing in street groups,playing football and at the same time judo while still struggling with class
and  in 2004 his football talent almost gets him into tests for national junior team but he will miss out as he is injured in a motorbike accident and will be spotted by singer tonton lay to join academia as an atalaku
 in fact during his street group days plick will be singing trying to emulate his closest models fally ferre and jb mpiana and at the same time doing animation especially in his mother tongue tshiluba
he then starts in the dying academia but tonton lay himself leaves to join quartier latin so he has to go back to street groups or look for another group
he will be introduced to gentamicine lisimo to be taken to bcbg but he fears singing in front of one of his idols so he runs away to keep working in groups of kasavubu and one year and half later when koffi olomide decides to form some sort of junior band
montana is one of the guys  tasked to look for young guys which could join  and plick will be picked along with several other talented guys to form les mineurs du quartier latin and will be shown on tv and dvd's annoucing the birth of that group  but by the time the group makes its firt official appearance  at grand hotel he is gone as he falls out with montana who removes him from the final list
he then goes back home focusing this time on football in hope to turn it into his job to feed his family  and will be introduced to papy kakol to be taken to maison mere in early 2007 and will be singing with kakol and a couple of other young guys kakol is preparing for maison mere tests what will become the song le representant which a song writer brings to kakol who shows it to werra(the fabregas part being added on by ibrator)
and when he gets presented to maison mere fans where he'll be renamed deplick its instant success and the song recorded becomes a hit and this will almost convince his family who is very reluctant to let him do professional music as they fear him  stopping to be the strong christian they educated him to be and go into witchcraft to get quick success
with the impact of the song he sings he is included in the list for zenith as europe fans are very eager to see him and his two friends fabregas and caferoum who sang with him
few days before the trip his family advises him once in europe to look for a football academy as they believe he has higher chance to make it in football than in music or at least it sounds more safe on spiritual level
he will then go on that tour and shine and really enjoy it while still being torn between music and football and few days before return to kinshasa he is tempted to stay but the fact he received  a lot of gifts in the last days and  he is a bit under pressure from some fans who are aware of his idea of staying,he goes back and as a symbol builds a little "restaurant" for his mother  instead of selling in streets and he receives her full blessings to continue into music but she keeps insisting to him not to even think about sacrificing somebody in the family
in 2009 2010 he really becomes an important member of the singing setup and obviously makes it for the second zenith while he also sang another song champagne
in 2012 2013 his maison mere career will be hit with a lot of controversy,starting with an open beef with heritier watanabe which reaches physical level
in fact he is attacked in front of la zamba after a rehearsal by heritier's guys and runs after one of them who slapped him and almost is hit by a car as he crosses road to follow that guy who is heading towards stade des martyrs and beats the guy
few times after the same guys threaten him and say if he attends another maison mere concert he'll be beaten hard which he replies to in a rant internet interview saying he will be there because he fears nobody in the group except werra himself
 meanwhile he gets a song for the group coming album fleche ingeta(the song which will be interpreted later by ferrari) but as atmosphere becomes too hard to handle for him  he decides to leave before album is released
and while he has a good offer to return to quartier latin he refuses and goes solo with plan to release an album with an ivorian producer and he first releases the song he was meant to have on fleche ingeta while he records album and moves often to ivory coast to also record there but fed up with a lot of issues with the producer who refuses to release,he goes back to kinshasa and with financial support of some donors and from jb mpiana records again the same album and even gets new customers who take album to 20 songs instead of 13
album is finally released in end of 2016 and gets a good reception  but unfortunately for him  it takes time to be backed up with concerts
he is currently working on a small project called bundesliga which is also the name he recently picked for  his group
