Nick Name: Queen of mutuashi
Profession: Singer, songwriter, dancer
Birth Place: May 13, 1958
Place of Birth: Élisabethville (Lubumbashi), Katanga, Congo Belge
Tshala Muana is the most prominent Congolese artist to sing in Ciluba language. She made plethora of recordings. Here’s a non-exhaustive discography. I don’t think it is 100% accurate, especially the release dates, but it will give you as rough idea. So if you happen to have an official record in your hands, please correct me if I’m wrong. In bold letters are the songs in Ciluba. If not indicated otherwise, the default language of the song would be Lingala.
