KOMBE DILU

I am having such a great weekend because I am so happy right now. I had found a song that I can get out of my stubborn head of mine. This song is so good that now I am going to share it.



The song that I can not stop playing for myself is the song called KOMBE DILU. The song comes from Dilu Dilumouna with Empire Bakuba. This song is a classic song and I enjoy it. Better it has one person: PEPE KALLE. He sounds so angelic and has no flaw when he sings this song. I am stunned how good Pepe Kalle sounded in this song. Dilu Dilumouna sounded good too. But Pepe Kalle was the reason why this song is so classic material to me. We had a perfect sebene with the help animations of Desouza and other people.

KOMBE DILU proved how great Pepe Kalle's voice was and how he was able to sound in flow as the song went on. Pepe Kalle's lead vocals were so perfect because it proved the greatness of Pepe Kalle. Pepe Kalle knew how to make this song unique. Dilu Dilumouna was good too and he managed to make his own mark. But with Pepe Kalle, the song was legendary.

Franco vs. Pepe Kalle: Who is better?






If there is one interesting discussion I had during this weeekedn was whether which of my two favorite personnels are better. I am speaking of Grand Maitre Franco and Giantafrique Pepe Kalle. Why you suppose? I made a joke that I was not in a mood to talk about Franco and Pepe Kalle but my family members decided to talk these two men anyway. So I did.


I am often asked who I think is better. Well it is very subjective but clearly one has an advantage over the other. One of them is who is a better musician? Franco. Who is the better singer? Pepe Kalle. Who was the better band leader? Franco. Who has the bigger star? Pepe Kalle.

But then comes ties who has a better connection with their culture or who people relate to better? It is a big tie because they both understood how hard life can be. Also both have shown their love for their culture by signing in their native tongue (Franco on Kikongo and Pepe Kalle on Tshiluba).


Because of this, I say neither is better than the other but it is fair to compare these two great legends because they are the true Kings of Congolese Music. They advance Congo music farther than anyone else. So these two Kings will be missed for a long time. Franco and Pepe Kalle are the Kings of Congolese Music.

Pepe Kalle Shining Moment



Another king of Congolese Music is someone name Pepe Kalle. Pepe Kalle was someone who also pioneered music in his own right and he was able to make his own songs that really could touch your heart in so many ways. So many Kinshasa people could relate to Pepe Kalle. Pepe Kalle had a great large base of Kinshasa people. No wonder many and even really young Congolese people miss Pepe Kalle.

It is supported by a event that made Pepe Kalle, the GIANTAFRIQUE as we know today. There was a song that was done in the 1970s which Pepe Kalle was so young and yet he was able to shine through this particular song and he was able to sound like a big legend. Pepe Kalle made a great song that was so much as a legend. That song I am speaking of is called NAZOKI. That song is a great song that shows the soon star of Giantafrique Pepe Kalle. Pepe Kalle sang this song so well and he sounded like a big genius. Pepe Kalle sang his heart out and had a powerful sound when he sang that song. He even got better when he sang back up and he just showed his legendary self in that song. Pepe Kalle sounded like a young superman. Pepe Kalle just sounded like a normal adult person. Pepe Kalle shined through this song and after this great song, things were never the same and Pepe Kalle would be the superstar as we know today.
