I don't know this man very well but i have one song he did which was quite popular and remains in my head.

What i remember is that a few years back he was jailed for raping a minor, he was released early. I remember seeing reports and photos of the likes of Werrason having visited him in prison.

I think the man is just putting pieces of his life back together now at home, i don't expect him to go back to music,maybe gospel.

evoloko is still active in music,here are his last songs
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=eQZJTJYYzyU
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=49B7Qne_I6Q
he has concerts in kinshasa but mainly in his quarter yolo with his group and sometimes with his childrens chou lay and tonton lay
not anymore the level of guys having spolesmen on tv every week to announce concert of this or that area of kin,or a tour abroad
anyway its his own fault,he was probably the most talented tenorist of their generation but is so full of himself that he missed several opportunities to have a better career
