Oh how I hate coupe decale
lol why?
They robbed Congolese music culture dry... and then some. Almost all the DJ names can be sourced to a Congolese artist or donor. They animate in Lingala often times, and do the same system of mabanga. I can keep going on and on...
I've long despised the genre, but in recent years I've admitted to myself some Coupé decale songs are genuinely good. My favorites:
Aladji - haha, Northern Nigerians really loved this one:
Wolloso - Probably the only Coupe Decale song dedicated to women and the biggest hit song of 2006, if I remember right. I really liked the message:
Back during the 2006 World Cup when Drogba was best footballer in Africa and captiain of the CIV this was the dance/anthem

:
And the song that single-handedly made the genre an African sensation (along with Dj Calludji's Seniment Moko):
Createur Douk Saga (RIP) had some popular tunes, but he was more of a celebrity figure
