  • Kanda Bongo Man (born 1955 in Inongo, Democratic Republic of the Congo) is a Congolese soukous musician.
    Kanda Bongo Man became the singer for Orchestra Belle Mambo in 1973, developing a sound influenced by Tabu Ley. His solo career only started to take off after moving to Paris in 1979, where his music started to incorporate elements of then-vibrant zouk music (originating in the French West Indies). His first solo albums, "Iyole" in 1981 and "Djessy" in 1982, were hits.
    He is known for the structural changes he implemented to soukous music. The previous approach was to sing several verses and have one guitar solo at the end of the song. Kanda Bongo Man revolutionized soukous by encouraging guitar solos after every verse and even sometimes at the beginning of the song. His form of soukous gave birth to the kwassa kwassa dance rhythm where the hips move back and forth while the hands move to follow the hips.
    Like many African rumba and soukous musicians before him, Kanda Bongo Man also had an entourage of musicians. Many of Kanda's musicians later moved on to start their own solo careers. Most notable of these was Diblo Dibala. Known as "Machine Gun", Diblo Dibala was a vital part of Kanda Bongo Man's lineup on several albums, including "Kwasa Kwasa" and "Amour Fou".
    Kanda Bongo Man still tours in Europe and the United States. In 2015, he performed live at Emperors Palace Johannesburg which was recorded for this release.

    I will never forget being not even 10 years old in the early 90s and watching Kanda Bongo Man at Nyayo Stadium in Kenya. Many years, as a student at Leicester University in England, I was going through a hard time. Walking in the city, I saw signs advertising Kanda Bongo Man in one of the clubs. I couldn’t believe it! Like a very distant memory has become alive and caught up with me. I took some housemates and it was such a great night. It wasn’t the packed Nyayo stadium, but probably 50 to 100 odd! When the night ended and they were parking up, I shouted: “Play Monie.” He heard me. The band returned to play Monie. Oh my goodness. My world. Like, dreams come true! Thank you Mr Kanda Bongo Man, for finding me on the other side of the world and being the soundtrack that made a young man very happy indeed .

    Music is the closest thing to a Time Machine
    Songs like this remind me of growing up in the 90s in East Africa my dad liked Congolese(Zaire) Zouk
    Also Kanda recorded this Song and album in Johannesburg (South Africa) which is also my second city/home so it really strikes home
    What a classic! !!
    I expected a lot more South Africans here lol 😂😂🤦
