My heart hurts - he's was the most consistent in terms of great song. Was a massive fan of his since Choc Stars - even contributed on his latest works. RIP - his life was so challenged

This is so sickening. I am so mad. He was not supposed to pass like this. He was a great singer. I am going to do a post on him on my blog. I am so angry about this. 2021 had to end like this. This is so gross. I am revolted. I am so saddened.

May he rest in peace. he had an impact on congolese music and was such a great dancer.....

A man close to Defao explaining what happened in Cameroon
-
Just saw the video of his last performance in Cameroon, man that’s soo sad. RIP, absolutely a underrated legend.

He looked so sick had to stop watching... it's so sad; he was still financially destitute. Shame so many artists have gone out like this
-
Montana, Theo Mbala, Renato, and Eugene Makuta must all be inconsolable right now
-
Man this is still unbelievable. You have to slow down when you get to that age.
-
Montana, Theo Mbala, Renato, and Eugene Makuta must all be inconsolable right now
And Kabose too.

this loss will surely affect the end of the year activities or releases...
indeed he looked very very tired even though at some point he tried dancing a bit,its so sad,he was one of the rare artists who did not have a major major feud with colleagues going for years
like you guys mentioned montana kabose mbokaliya renato,debleu and all those big stars guys must be devastated
its also surely a big shock for guys like djanana,luciana,adolphe,koffi,reddy and so on
i could talk a bit with wazekwa today all he could say when he could stop crying a bit was "ahhh mbuta akeyi mbuta akeyi "
his loss reminds me a bit of pepe kalle,in that sense that he was quite away from polemic,he was supportive of artists in kinshasa during his extended stay abroad,and even of journalists i cant recall especially the tv journalists any of them who did not give him several shoutouts in their shows in kinshasa then thanked him for his warm welcome whenever they could be gone to kenya
RIP gene gene he will be missed,i wanted to say i hope his death will change that "asila" mentality but thats delusional from me,unfortunately those guys will continue to be "asila" to many until they pass and their is a sudden period of tribute and due respect
-
I still can’t believe this day. We lose a legend like this. He was working on new material I believe?
-
We are losing them at a faster rate than we are making them. Thank you Defao for your music.

This pandemic has taken a few artists. I wander if there are steps and procedures they should be taking to limit getting the virus.
I’m in the US but we are no better. One state is different than another when it comes to pandemic management. I know it has affected my sporting events.

Kabose and Montana went to visit Defao’s family

It piss me off the way "the combattans" are claiming that he was killed by Kabila. While they were the same people who said that Kabila was using him as a spion in Kenya against politicans, once he tried to give a playback-show in Brussels and making multiple videos to insult him about his life, etc. (including that guy Esso).

This concern has also been crossing my mind especially when guys step on the stage to greet the musician hugging and all. I just hope something is done.

Wasn't defao vaccinated? and if he wasn't then sad because people his age good health should always be first above all

Zacle who is still in ivory coast and who was with him during his tour(burkina,ivory coast,cameroon) before he went to cameroon talks
and apparently he was against wearing mask and getting vaccinated while he had covid and he had refused to be stuck in hospital and rest and continue tour
-
This tough! Our artists need to either be vaccinated or cancel shows. I understand Defao loves performing but this pandemic is taking people away one by one. Especially if you have other conditions. I wish someone would have advised him on what to do.
-
In the US I see it all. Many people don’t care about vaccinations or masks. This is the very least you can do to safeguard from the virus. Here deaths are high among lots of hospitalizations.

I was chopping onions while watching this, man congolese people know how to cry... RIP
-
I was watching an interview he did in Matadi somewhere around September were when he was asked about his sad memories in his 40 years career, he mentioned how they almost had an airplane accident in the same Douala, Cameroon years ago. The same Douala would later be the place he would die.
-
Btw it’s also in Douala that they stole his chain when performing

First off sincerest condolences. What a huge blow to our music. Sadly good rhumba is leaving with our legends.

He was a diabetic which put him at a higher risk. That last video recorded minutes before he died was really concerning. He should’ve been in the hospital on a ventilator not touring. I know for a fact diabetes is high among Congolese. And as you’re aware here in the US Omicron is no joke. I hate to see what it does to poor countries in Africa. We’re going to see more shocking devastating deaths like this one if their governments don’t put imperative mandates in place.

in brief manuaku is explaining how somebody spotted him in his hometown and came to inform him that there is a real talent which could help your new band and that talent was defao so defao was brought to kinshasa and he came in with a massive massive contribution and he keeps fond memories of him

Lofombo, Theo Mbala, Kabose and others went to Douala to get Defao's body
