Über Héritier Watanabe

Kinshasa singer who rose through Werrason's Wenge Musica Maison Mère before launching a solo career that placed him at the centre of the Wenge family's next generation. 'B.M.' (2016) was one of the clearest modern ndombolo floor records of the mid-2010s, and his blend of the Wenge lineage with contemporary production has kept the Kinshasa dance tradition visible on pan-African streaming throughout the last decade.
