Kibwe's musical peregrinations apparently led to wanderings that landed him in Canada. Search for other CDs he released through Kibwe Productions, Black Mormon, Dictatoria and Listen To Me, and all the links to the source are dead. There's a blog placeholder that indicates he is involved in a mind-boggling mix of commerce in Kibwe Enterprises, in addition to music, and another for a clothing company; in fact there is a plethora of blogs with no firm leads. On Facebook you can learn that he is running for the presidency of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Enigmatic.
I offer this album both as an old favorite and as a catalyst to find access to Kibwe's more recent recordings. Where can we get them??

Hey! Sounds pretty interesting, but the dld doesn't start, and I've dlded a few other things from mediafire today, so maybe there's something wrong with the link? Thanks. - CALUMBINHO
Hello Columbinho,
I checked the link and it worked for me. Enjoy it!

I know this guy personally, he will be going back to France soon. The Congo presidency thing seems to have dried up some time ago. I think he is on a bit of a hiatus right now to care for his family. Really great humble guy. I had no idea until recently he had at one time made it big in France, and so long ago. I had thought he was much younger than this.
What an enjoyable album! As you say lots of influences in those songs, but he's made something quite special out of it all! Thanks for the chance to make his acquaintance - though it looks like it might be difficult to follow up by finding anything else.... :-)
