Omona Wapi

This historic summit brought together the two most massive and fiercely competitive figures in the history of Congolese rumba for a joyous, collaborative celebration. 'Omona Wapi' features Franco's intricate, cascading guitar work seamlessly backing Tabu Ley Rochereau's sweet, high-register vocal melodies over relentless, uplifting soukous grooves. The immensely successful release acts as an essential, unifying document of African popular music's golden era.
