Leaving Cameroon to France to study, he got to study music where he enrolled for piano lessons. Though a piano student, Manu fell in love with his friend and classmate's instrument, the saxophone. Not having a keyboard at home to rehearse his music lessons, he spent time using his friend's saxophone which has today become his longest companion. He developed a musical style fusing jazz and traditional Cameroonian music. He is a member of the Yabassi ethnic group, though his mother was a Douala.
He has collaborated with many musicians, including Fela Kuti, Herbie Hancock, Bill Laswell, Bernie Worrell, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, and Sly and Robbie. In 1998 he recored the album CubAfrica with Cuban artist Eliades Ochoa .
His Soul Makossa is often considered the first disco record (Jones and Kantonen, 1999). Prominent and loved by his country, he just celebrated his 50th musical anniversary in Cameroon, where he was greatly supported by the wife of the president of Cameroon.
Manu Dibango was the sole African who exposed African traditional music to the western world. His style took the world by storm when the American superstar, Michael Jackson took Manu's Soul Makossa which featured in Jackson's album in You wanna be startin' Something.[i/] This same hit today vibrates the music chart which featuresAkon. Obviously, Jackson lost the suit and had to pay the African Saxophonist for Damage.
He has influenced so much Africans and buyam sellam has been modeled in an eclassified. cameroon jobs,accomodation, www.buyamsellam.org

Rich people are poor; We only got money on our mind or bank•account.
Soulfood is Richness & universal joyfull language from above & beyond.
That is Music in my ear. That is in fact a huge part of why life is worth Living.
Soul addiction is astonishing healthy.
Addiction to money is a disease from invention of capitalistic society. Alternative Lifestyle is hard to imagine.
Music might allow us to get closer.
Money often tear more apart than what music in fact get enough Credit to heal

This timeless music from Cameroon is over 50 years old! In the Douala dialect, it means, "I will dance". Prophetic! If you're still rocking to it in 2024, smash the I ❤Manu Dibango button below:
