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!
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!

I saw them perform live in Utrecht, the Netherlands last year and the were great, awesome, funky, wonderful, jazzy, rocking, cool and smashing ! One of the guys in a wheelchair even fainted for some minutes but continued the show, I LOVE THEM !!
Just went to see them perform and they are AMAZING! You cannot just sit down you need to get up and dance and it's a fantastic atmosphere created by the band! The best concert I have ever been to and I highly reccomend it!

C'est bon, laisse les bosser! personne ne vient te dire: "il y a la guerre chez nous et deS viols, donc va po bosser". ils vivent de leur passion, je vois pas ce qu'il y a de mal!
que linda canciòn me encanta el ritmo aunque no se lo que dice creo que dice algo de TE AMO...pero no entiendo nada mas lo uniko q entiendo es que me encanta!!!
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!!
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 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 !!
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
one love, one world. we ALL need to work for world peace, ESPECIALLY the comfortable 1rst worlders who can only watch this magic on UToob and wonder how it all works...
Le Congo,notre cher pays est tres Riche. What a talent!! I wish you all the best dispite the current turmoils and the lack of a state that can give you a decent social support,etc.
I have a dream that one day it will be over. May the Lord bless Congo and all his people!

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

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!
