I wonder if any of you knew the shop called: Mayala in rue Gustav Rouanet in Paris? If yes, do you know who was the owner?

That was the shop of Tonton Mayala. Tonton Mayala  passed this year away in January 2024. I thought that it would create some buzz like Bob Masua, since that he produced Reddy Amisi, Bozi Boziana, Defao, Wenge Aile Paris, Zaïko Langa Langa, Pepe Kallé, etc. But the people and the press were quite calm.

Ah, what a pity, it seemed to be a good source to ask about productions. Let he rest in peace then...

Do you know any relative of him who is active on Facebook and has a clue about his past business?

I don't have an idea. I think that I saw a link about his son or relative talking on facebook, just after Tonton Mayala's death, but I don't what he said and if I can find it back.

Don't worry about it. But let me ask you if you notice a close relative either on Facebook or real life, pass his contact details to me I want to discuss with them, maybe they have a clue if this guy had a personal archive and what happened to it.
