I had the strong impression that this song was a genre-definer for Afro-Funk. It would be good to see a fuller bio. Tim flatus (talk) 10:19, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

When I was introduced to Manu DiBango's music in the '90's I was told he was regarded as "the godfather of African Beat" music, one of the forefather or originators of World Beat music. I would edit the article and mention it, except I have no reference to offer and so I assume someone would take down that comment. But if anyone heard the same and has a reference or testimony from another well-regarded musician then it might be worth mentioning. At the time I attended the Wakafrica (album) tour. It was outstanding. The crowd was mostly on their feet the entire time. (How could they not be?) What a groove(s). — Preceding unsigned comment added by SanJoseRobert (talk • contribs) 12:42, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
