Héritier Wata
Héritier Bondongo Kabeya, known professionally as Héritier Watanabe or Héritier Wata, is a Congolese singer, songwriter, dancer, producer, and bandleader. He is the founder of the Kinshasa-based orchestra Team Wata. An influential figure in fifth-generation Congolese rumba, Bondongo began singing at the age of 10 and soon joined JB Mpiana's Wenge BCBG for practice and public appearances, seeking admittance but was eventually rejected. Bondongo gained widespread recognition after joining Werrason's Wenge Musica Maison Mère in 2001, where he co-wrote and sang on several of the band's most breakout songs, including "J'en ai assez", "Nostalgie", "Demi-Tour", "Simeon", "Confession Intime", "Sol De Mi Amor", "Par Amour", "Remise et reprise", "Le prince de la ville", "Amour vrai", and "Kimberny meilleur choix". In 2015, Bondongo signed with Obouo Music and Because Music for his debut solo studio album, Carrière d'honneur - Retirada, which premiered the following year. His second album, Mi-ange mi-démon, released as a double-disc set, debuted with Tout simplement moi on 18 December 2020, followed by Tout simplement moi on 26 February 2021. From Wikipedia (
