Damn such great memories! I remember back in Zimbabwe this song was such a hit in the early 00's. Every Tuesday evening on Afrobeat they alwaz played it last and damn ppl would move the sofas and table to the side to make room in the livingroom and boy everyone would step on the 'dancefloor' and break their waists lol. Even the maids joined in haha.

nobody ever knows what it means, because sometimes they don't speak lingala, it's a mixture of different languages and made up words.. we just go with the flow!
