THE BAOBAB OF BANGO
November 23, 2024 - 08:19 AM
With 70 years on stage, blowing the saxophone and singing to entertain revelers, Mzee Ngala is undoubtedly a musical baobab in the country. The huge fig has survived turbulent winds that brought others down. He has been there and seen it all. He could be the oldest performing musician in the country. That's not all he pioneered a genre, made it popular, and even got it ingrained in the coastal cultures to become an integral part of their social-cultural heritage. It isn't strange to hear a local say 'Harusi si harusi bila Bango', (a wedding is incomplete without bango). We trace the genesis of the musical journey of Mzee Ngala to 1955, when he dropped out of Shimo La Tewa Secondary......
THE MAGNET THAT PULLS
November 22, 2024 - 08:00 PM
THE MYSTERIOUS MAGNET THAT PULLS.When veteran Telezaire broadcaster Lukunku Nsampu asked Franco who was on stage, while pointing at the late Mayaula Mayoni, Franco responded by introducing Mayaula as a former footballer who went to Europe for higher education and then converted to be a musician. Lukunku: Amoni mosolo (He's seen money in music?) Franco: Mosolo te. Elengi! (Not money but pleasure) Mayaula Mayoni was born in Kinshasa in 1946 and began his education in the local schools. He was a great footballer and featured for the country's team AS Vita and even the national team Leopards, which played in the FIFA World Cup of 1974. He later joined his father, who was a......
PAPA NOEL: GUITAR GENIUS, NOT A CHRISTMAS STORY
November 22, 2024 - 03:30 PM
PAPA NOEL: GUITAR GENIUS, NOT A CHRISTMAS STORY. A lie that's told repeatedly, finally wears a gown and graduates into a truth, especially if an authentic truth is coming out, from any direction of trust. Was the fallen giant of Congolese music, Papa Noel aka Nedule Montswet born on Christmas as oftentimes alleged? No! Papa Noel, popularly known as Ya Nono, especially by his peers, told the Diamant Noir (Black Diamond TV) that he wasn't born on Christmas day of 1940 or of any other year. Of course, no one knows anyone better than themselves, as such, it is very sad to conclude that Papa Noel wasn't born on Christmas. This relegation comes with a domino effect on other popular......
