himself loved to refer to his 7 years in paris before returning to play at martys as "seven years ago",and now he is gone 7 years ago

Gone but not forgotten

Listen to this lovely duet between Kester Emeneya and Papa Wemba
Both great singers

Rest in Peace

'7 years ago'

Nzinzi is the song that got me interested in Kester.

As someone who occasionally listens to Kester, I recognize his grandeur and significance to our music.

Can you guys enlighten me and elaborate what made Kester great and so revered by many? In other words, what was special about Kester?

Ah Le Grand Kisimbi. Continue R.I.P kwamambu.

AH KWAMAMBU, RIP to the most unique and original artist the genre has ever seen

Just listen to some of the song he has inspired






















(Seben Part)

















But my favourite song of him will be always this





The 3:34 inspire so many songs

King Kester was a legend gone to soon. My first introduction was my dad showing me a video of Mboka Mboka, how he starts the song slow and jumps into powerful sebene.

Mademoiselle was another one. Since then have been sold on the King.

One of the first Kester songs I listened. RIP

Thanks for sharing. Yes, ka vérité is also one of my favorite song. Love the way he introduced the team members in such a unique way.

I have listened to all those songs. But if you could put it in writing, how did he influence them?

Thanks for sharing.
