- Lokassa Ya Mbongo (Lokassa Kasia, Denis), est un guitariste congolais né à Kinshasa en 1946, décédé le 15 mars 2023. En trois décennies, il sera considéré comme l’un des meilleurs guitaristes rythmiques congolais avec Bopol et Dechaud. Ses doigts agiles ont rythmé nombre de rumbas kinoises, puis mars de soukous durant sa période Parisienne.
A l’instar de Sam Mangwana, Lokassa a commencé sa carrière professionnelle dans le célèbre groupe « Afrisa » de Tabu Ley Rochereau, anciennement « African Fiesta National ». Il y perdurera dix ans, et se produira brillamment sur scène à Paris (à l’Olympia) en 1970.
En 1978 avec d’autres musiciens congolais, il rejoint le chanteur Sam Mangwana à Abidjan en Côte d’Ivoire pour fonder le groupe « African All Stars ». Lorsque le groupe éclate à Lomé au Togo en 1979, Lokassa prend le nom de Ya M’Bongo et joue avec nombre de congolais en exil. Il renoue avec Sam Mangwana et consorts en 1982 et produit notamment l’album « Bonne Année » chanté par Sam Mangwana, accompagné des choristes ivoiriennes Nayanka Bell et Chantal et des musiciens Dizzy Mandjeku, A. Manena, Ringo Moya, Yace.
En 1984, il s’installe à Paris et enregistre avec d’autres grands noms comme Abeti, Kanda Bongo Man et Pepe Kalle. Un nouveau groupe est fondé en 1989 : les « Soukous Stars » réunissant Lokassa, Ballou Canta, le guitariste Dally Kimoko et les chanteurs Lukombo Shimita, Yondo «Sister» Kusala, et Neil Zitany.
L'album vinyle "Lokassa ya M'Bongo"" sorti en 1986 (label CBS - AICD 004, Nigeria), contient quatre titres :
A01- La Rivalité
A02- Mandeni
B01- Santa Isabella
B02- M'Banda Mongungu

I am from USA, born and raised, and I adore African music and culture. I cannot stop listening to Lokassa Ya MBongo and Soukous Stars.. music is a universal language! Love to my African brothers and sisters!
We love you back🤗
Awesome family. Keep listening. It’s catching on fast now. Proud of you. We are one.😅
Depuis les îles Comores, je salue votre attachement à l'universalité culturelle: oui, nous sommes des fréres et soeurs , étant toutes et tous de l'espèce humaine. Respect à vous!
Hi. We're United through Rhumba music more so lokassa ya mgongo
We shall appreciate each other.
I am in Kenya Kilifi County. I was 16 years old in 1986. Love lokassa ya mmbongo music
listening from Nairobi Kenya, May his soul (Lokasa ya M"bongo) rest in peace. His songs, particularly this one, will be with us and many more generations to come. I had finished form six (1983) when this song was released and it was a hot potato.
It is still a hot potato, as Africans, we may lack anything else but not artistical originality; highly particulate music. May God bless Africa.
Today 17/3/2023 we have lost a legend
Farewell thee well.. Thank you for sharing your timeless music to the world. Kende malamu 🙏🏾
My Daddy used to play this songs frequently when I was young, but now I am also following his footsteps by liking them even than him.
RIP 🌹🌺🌻🌼🌷
Muziki moja kali tena Sana🎙️🎙️🎸🎸📻📻📺📺✈️✈️
Malheureusement le temps passé ne peut plus revenir.
Qu'elle était belle notre enfance avec ces rythmes à côté de nos mamans et papas qui malheureusement ne sont plus de ce monde. Trop émouvant
votre commentaire donne de l'amertume, vanité de vanité.
Mon frère, je te lis et je coule des larmes

This song never grew old, still fresh as yesterday
Un des plus grands guitaristes que l'Afrique ait accouché... Un génie de l'arrangement. Mon Dieu, une icône...

🙄 Lokassa est Congolais. Il n'a rien a' avoir Avec Israel et sa religion. Il est mort.
Those old day's , there was no AIDS, no cancer, people used to enjoy themselves without being worried, ooo!! the man who was created by God has destroyed the whole world by his own hands.

I remember my primary education in 1986 while in school it was very interesting very early in morning before you go to school.
Rip Lokassa. Tu es un monument. Quelle inspiration. Yaounde

reminds me when I was in form 4 in 1986 performing a farewell party. good music
SANTA ISABELLA is my ALL time song without age.Truth be said, people will come sing and go but never like fellows of old school music like this one. I repeat, NEVER.

The best of the best
RIP Lokasa ya Mbongo....this song Santa Isabella is nostalgic it reminds me of the good old days when Discos were real discos.
Days of our Lives
Days of our Lives, Onesmus Aluk said GB to Abrahamic stories to Africa soil. The same said in Swahili is "usikanyage udongo tena" ...
Days of our Lives, at that time Onesmus Aluk confirmed GB to Abrahamic stories to Africa soil. The same said in Swahili is "usikanyage udongo tena" ...
May Lokassa ya Bongo's soul rest in eternal peace. The Rhumba in heaven must be fire!!
Great Lokassa
The evergreen African rhumba at it's best.still going strong despite the fact that it was done when I was in class three.the voice n message still there though departed. rip loukassa ya mbongo.
This song will never grow old.Those were the days when music could console you.
hey those were days when music was music
This music make me feel better when I remember the good past days and those good past days would never repeat itself again oh my goodness. Thank almighty God for everything, soukous guys may Almighty God bless us amen
Amen
Just only the calm voice will make you want to cry
Rest well legend
I will forever sing along. If you want to enjoy and conjure memories please sing or dance along. My parents made me love this hits forever. Only a useless traffic police officer can stop and waste your time whilst listening to this in your vehicle.
If I were a traffic cop on the road and I heard you car stereo blasting this,I'll make sure you stop there until it was over.
RIP Lokasssa Ya Mbongo. you are immortalized in your songs and sweet voice and superb skill in guitar.
This beautiful song reminds me of Eddie pondo of kbc .Rip Pondo u really entertained us in the 80s
Excellent, this is the real African rhumba, the brother doesn't hurry but the lyrics hey!! Though I don't understand french but the groove is just irresistible and I remember those days when Mom was still alive and uncle would come during Christmas like we are about to experience now and hey!! great days,(rest in eternal peace mom and big bro aulus Mabele)
The song reminds me Early 90s when planing to Merry
When music was music.this song takes me back when I was growing up memories are made of this.
we used to parody this hit and sing 'Ngoka ii niete kakula kaseo'-- I will come bringing a nice dress....😃
I was 11 when this came out man, 31 years later & still fresh. great music
I was not yet born. You are my senior
Reminds me when was very young and could hear these songs from a bar called new mangu in the neighbour hood.
It was during those good days when life was meaningful and important to all human beings,,,,,,and African music has no boundaries ,,،،،،،، long leave African music long leave great African musicians
R I P Lokassa Yambongo..❤️😭🙏
When Music was indeed music....Mmmmm!.. cant even start comparing with what i see/hear this days in the name of music.
Song remaind me back!
now this was music and pure art -no pornography no auto tune
African Rumba music will live beyond a century after the demise of the artists and still be enjoyed by generations to come. Long live our mother Africa.
Perfectly said. It appears to me that investigative journalism has not captured any candid interview on the live and times of various artistes and their music themes !
When life was still life and very meaningful. Not this circus of today. African Music which knew no boundaries. This song was so popular in my native Zimbábwe. It still rocks even today.
Sure now it's all about circus with no content
Best composition by Lokassa Ya Mbongo. This song took us by storm in Kenya circa 1984. RIP Legend
Bon son meilleur musique

Can't listen to this music enough! It's super, miss those days. Late 80s
Golden oldies never dies,that is the beauty of mother africa.
I do believe that time really can't be pulled back. Lokasa ya bongo gone are the days.
Wow it was the time we enjoyed ourselves. No fear
Excellent music Music for Africa
My early days that were measured by speed. We fell ,arose and picked up to move on and on. My yester years were so sweet fit for a re-wind. But,one lives once in a lifetime. Living well is enough . Sweet memories never fades away. Still enjoying the song .
