Title: Farafara
Post by: jax on March 31, 2024, 15:00
The 90s and early 2000 was really a great time in the Congolese music scene with lots of beautiful music not  forgetting the sheer dominance this genre had in Africa. Just  a few days ago I was listening to a Mbuta Likasu track featuring Celeo Scram as the atalaku and then I remembered the famous  fara-fara's that we had back in the day.  What do you think  would happen today if there was "a sort of " competition ( something similar to the FIKIN concerts) among the big orchestras in Kin, ie Fally's  F'Victeam,  Ferre's Jet-set, Koffi's QL, Wenge BCBG, WMMM,  Fabregas, Wata etc?  Which Orchestras would  bring the house down

The issues is some of these bands are focusing on rumbas mostly. So I’m not sure how the concerts would be these days.
