= ﻿Manu Dibango = = =

Manu Dibango was born December 12, 1933 in Douala Cameroon Africa. He is the most widely known musician from the French West African nation of Cameroon. School was in the village and then he went to "the white man's school". This is where he learnt French. Once he had passed his primary school leaving certificate, his father sent him to Saint-Calais to boarding school. In Spring 1949, young Manu sailed for Marseilles. The family who was to look after him lived in the Sarthe region in the west of France. In 1950, he went to high school in Chartres, a little further south. He made friends with a few Africans, usually from good families, and was happy there, the atmosphere suiting him better than boarding school. He started music, first the mandoline and then piano. He now plays the saxophone and is very into jazz like music. Dibango first discovered his interest in music as a boy at home and in church. In addition to church music, which included many classical European scores, Dibango also listened without his parents' knowledge or approval to modern music. He still performs, less frequently these days. But now in his 70s, he’s earned the right to slow down. One thing that hasn’t diminished, however, is his influence. Manu Dibango remains the African Colossus. media type="youtube" key="aWK_Josc0Og" width="425" height="350" This song made the US Top 40 only briefly, but later became notable for 2 reasons. The first is its refrain, "Ma-ma-se, ma-ma-sa, ma-ma-kossa," which Michael Jackson borrowed for his 1983 hit "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'." but without Dibango's permission. Dibango eventually reached an out of court settlement with Jackson over the lyrics. The second reason is the genre, and the pop culture phenomenon, that the song set in motion. "Soul Makossa" was so popular as a dance song that its style began to be emulated and further developed by American dance musicians and eventually took on a life of its own. As a result, this is now widely regarded as the first Disco record.
