Marking Papa Wemba's anniversary
It's one year since the famous Congolese Rumba musician died while performing during a music festival in Ivory Coast. His fellow countryman, the singer, Lokua Kanza, played a major role in his career by writing and producing some of Papa Wemba's biggest hits. He's been talking to the 麻豆社's Ata Ahli Ahebla about the loss of his friend.
