Zaiko Langa Langa has been one of the hottest and most popular bands in the
Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) since its formation in the early seventies (when Congo was still called
Zaire), through the eighties and the nineties and into the new millennium. Such famous names as
Papa Wemba, Bozi Boziana,
Dindo Yogo, Evolocko Jocker and Nyoka Longo started with Zaiko and went on to establish successful careers. It has spun off several groups consisting of groups or factions of former members which achieved a decent measure of success.
