Madilu System, originally named Jean de Dieu Makiese, was a renowned Congolese rumba singer and songwriter. He gained fame as a prominent member of the influential band TPOK Jazz during the 1980s, where his collaboration with Franco, the band's leader, propelled him to Congolese and global stardom. Regarded as the group's most gifted vocalist, Madilu embarked on a successful solo career after TPOK Jazz disbanded in the 1990s and released several successful singles. Tragically, while filming music videos for his latest songs in 2007, he passed away. His posthumously released album, La Bonne Humeur, stands as a tribute to his extraordinary musical legacy.
