Mulele Matondo Afrika
« on: December 12, 2012, 08:34:42 am »
Over the past few months, I have come to know Mulele from Facebook I heard one of his songs, I was hooked. This man has an incredible  voice, his songs come right from the soul. Here is a biography, check him out..

Kinshasa-born Mulele Matondo Afrika started music at an early age before he established himself in Zimbabwe as a bassist, guitarist and arranger with a flair for his home grown Congolese style still extremely popular there today. As Ponpon Matondo, he enjoyed success early in his career working with Real Sounds of Africa, Lubumbashi Stars and New Stars Musica V.S.L.V. (which he co-founded).

Mulele's recently released solo debut, Prophecy, marks a change of direction towards what he calls 'conscious music'. Affected by endless conflict back home, and inspired by outspoken artists before him, Mulele now writes music for the people - songs about real lives and problems, often criticising world leaders in the process, and urging his fellow Africans to stand up and change the dire status quo

So he was with the Real Sounds? One of my all time favorite bands, definitely. I will certainly check him out.
