Really sad that there isn't a proper biography on internet about his career going into all details before his time in Zaiko, his time in Zaiko, Isifi Lokole, Yoka Lokole, his time in Afrisa, Viva La Musica, Molokai, Nouvelle Ecriture until his death. Talking about the reasons of his departures in bands, the problems he had, private life, the influence he had on the youth, his world music-career, his contribution in Congolese music, the experiments he did with Viva La Musica in 1979 (songs like Bon Samiritian who were totally different than normal Congolese music), the big events (2x Stade 24 Novembre, Cine Palladium, Stade de 20 Mai against Isifi Melodia, etc.)

My favorite song from Papa Wemba when he did this song with Pepe Kalle alongside Kester Emeneya. I wish these men had sung more together often. I think Kester, Wemba and Kalle should have done a trio album around 1985 or 1986 or even in 1995.
