Congolese Superstar Papa Wemba Dies Dramatically On Stage

Late Papa Wemba

Just when music fans are still trying to come to terms with the passing of Prince, the music community got hit by yet another news of the passing of an iconic music superstar.
The name 'Jules Shungu Webadio' might not ring a bell but Papa Wemba is a sure bell-ringer for everyone that gyrated to his Makossa beats in the 90s.

The Congolese superstar and Soukous/Makossa proponent sadly slumped while doing what he loved to do the most, performing on stage yesterday at the age of 66.

May his soul rest in peace.
