Released during a time when artists were recording one-take clips in their backyards, hotel rooms, during concerts... Kanda Bongo Man put together a clip with a budget which was then unheard of. Produced by a French film team and it was even playing on French music channels.



When soukous ruled the game and Kanda was Soukous king. Man 3615 Code Niawu is treasure, having made so many dance throughout the 80's-90's

Nene Tchakou a legend

Is Nene Tchakou still active as musician ?

What happened with all those Soukous-Stars (Kanda Bongo Man, Diblo Dibala, Aurlus Mabele, Lutchiana Mobulu, Sakis, Alain Nkounkou, Shimita El Diego Diego, Geo Bilongo, Yondo Sister, etc. ) ?

I heard alot of crazy stories about a feud between Aurlus Mabele and his ex'manager, but I saw yesterday a video of him and he was alright.
