Sad indeed. Another colossus gone...

Let's remember him through his music. Here is one of my favorites:

A true colossus, giant musician and Band leader has gone to rest.

From Clan Langa Langa, Viva La Musica, Nouvelle Ecriture....

Greet your compatriots that went before you like Abeti Masikini, Mpongo Landu,  King Kester Emeneya, Djengaka Esperant, Dindo Yogo etc.

May the good Lord comfort his recently married wife and family.

The national television and the radio stations were all talking about the passing on of Papa Wemba.

That the soul of the Papa Wemba rests in peace. Amen

I just cant imagine how Clan Langa Langa, Viva La Musica members and others

from The Jossart Longo, Bozi Boziana, Evoloko Lay Lay, Gina Wa Gina, Reddy Amisi, Mavuela Somo, Lita Bembo, Koffi Olomide etc. etc.

feel.

Not to talk less of the family itself - immediate and extended.

Tutulu:
   You are so right about the effect this must have on his entourage.
