  • sexamachine cheeto-lay!

  • Florent, you will probably never read this but I just read about the incredible work you and Renaud did and how much you struggled but still fought through it all. It was a great inspiration to read about your amazing work with Staff Benda Bilili and Jupiter, without you guys these amazing guys would still be unnoticed. You guys truly inspired me!

    Thank you very much!

    RD Congo, Kinshasa, my home.. I just wish peace for all of you!!

  • I really wonder what kind of people are here on youtube and making thumbs down to such wonderful successful creativity and positive example for everybody!

  • I just have been at the movie theater and watched "Staff Benda Bilili"- Sooooooooo great and uplifting and the very best: A TRUE SUCCESS story and example that everybody has something worthy to share with the world- no matter what imperfections are otherwise! Don't let school or religions tell you you can't do it if you don't follow their false rules and that you should leave it to someone outside of you to decide what you can do!

    Thank you for the music. :)

    peace

  • this is the best music i have heard in years, I wish i was there with you.

  • this is amazing ~ true music

    so funky, so right

  • They actually make all the instruments on by themselves. It is common to do that that when people can't afford buying them.

    They are very talented I should say, considering that they have no musical education.

  • Chuckle. Surely , you jest?

    What is your definition of "musical education" ?

    They have mastered the basics of harmony, theory and history. One doesn't have to attend a "Juilliard" to receive an education in the art of music.

    This group can probably teach the most erudite musician a thing or two!

  • true talent that I do not understand the lyrics of his music has a good pace along with musical instruments

  • nice rhythm.

  • man did u see the boy with some instrument like guitar at 2:45. did he created da by himself?

  • djembe.

  • Oh, if we could only hear/see the un-edited version! But then again, it is a blessing that we heard what we heard. Bless everyone in this video and eveyone who watched it.

  • interesting point about james brown,ali but i think the ancestors of these men probably knew this music too. still very beautiful regardless of origin or influence. peace

  • These are definitely the echoes of the Ali fight decades ago, during which James Brown among others went to Kinshasa. Amazing how such simple instruments can produce this incredible great music, especially the young man playing the one string lead instrument based on a tin can. Recycling 101!!

  • Rich and filled with a beautiful spirit. Let's dance!

  • sexa machina!

  • "Fantastique"

  • In the midst of nothing comes such great song

    and happinss,yet people cry, labour,and kill for things that mather little in life.

    Lord have mercy.

  • I love this joint

    They pwn!

  • I love this song. Especially that kid with ammazing skills on the traditional string instrument! Trust Congo people, they are born musicians!I am not from Congo but ngai na lingi musiki ya bana Congo!

  • i like this song, mad nice.

  • Roger , tjrs na temps ...ce petit est trop fort ...A GENIUS

  • I bought the two disc set of video DVD and music CD and they are excellent. I will be getting anything else on video they come out with also.I'm a big fan of everyone around that whole general music scene there in Kinshasha !!

  • Thank you very much for your interest.

  • Turned her head

  • this is fukkin crit yo!!

  • this song is pretty funny....lol

  • i love this country despite its problems, people manage to live with such energy and hope... God bless

  • what country do the singers come from cuz they don't come from somalia or egypt or libya.

  • Congo-Kinshasa (Democratic Republic of the Congo)

  • They come from Congo-Kinshasa.

  • réel!

  • Gorgeous!

  • wonderful wonderful wonderful

  • oh God that's amazing... I like it so much... to lingi bino pé...

  • True sons of Congo, singing an uplifting song, simply by saying nalingi yo! They are purely saying I love you; I love you like I love myself. They still have a place for love despite of all the struggles in daily life, their music is inclusive and transcend barriers imposed by the civilisation, it carries with it the message of love & bright future, little boy manage to release good vibrations from the song by simply playing one string instrument, magic! Thanks brothers! Bless you all.

  • excellent!...les congos(brazza/kinsha) et autres pays d'Afrique se relèveront ils un jour des blessures infligées depuis tant de siècles???...ça commence!

  • May GOD forgive THOSE WHO PUT THE AFRICAN CONTINENT INTO POVERTY, they may have taken our treasures but they can never take away the gifts that God has given us, I LOVE YOU ALL AND I LINGI YO

  • Your right man, especially when contrasted against the heavy programming of the super indusriocommercial world.
