Soucis Ya Likinga

This is a interesting to me because in today's society, people like to betray each other so often and people like to stab each other in the back believing that they will benefit. It is so rare today that people stand by their friend often, it is just does not happen on regular basis anymore. They go and help their friend out.


One person who has that friend heart is Pepe Kalle. Pepe Kalle had a mindset of helping a friend out even though he did something horribly so wrong. Pepe Kalle made a song for his friend. The song is called Soucis Ya Likinga. For some time, people wondered who LIKINGA that Pepe Kalle was singing about. Some people thought including myself Pepe Kalle was making a character name Likinga.

Turns out many of us were so wrong. In fact the song Soucis Ya Likinga was about former Empire Bakuba and Zaiko Langa Langa singer Likinga Redo. Background behind this story is that Likinga Redo while on his peak of his music career, was basically doing drug dealing and that nobody knew about it including Nyoka Longo and Pepe Kalle. Eventually Likinga Redo got caught and he was sent to jail for 5 years. Yep, 5 years. Likinga would be in prison for 5 years. So one person decided to make a song for Likinga. That man would be Giantafrique Pepe Kalle. Pepe Kalle made this song called Soucis Ya Likinga. Clearly on this song, you could tell that Pepe Kalle was angry over that Likinga Redo was in jail and wanted him out. Pepe Kalle was really emotional in this song. The song really show what a great singer Pepe Kalle was. I enjoy his voice so much. For Pepe Kalle to care deeply for Likinga Redo, shows you that Pepe Kalle had a deep true respect for his friend. Alturism does not exist that much anymore but Pepe Kalle had that a lot.

Pepe Kalle and Likinga Redo were singers together in Empire Bakuba and were perfect together.

P.S. I will try to make a good biography on Likinga Redo.

Here is the song Soucis Ya Likinga
