Véritable super star en Afrique, Fally Ipupa mène depuis 2006 une riche carrière solo couronnée de succès. Avec 5 albums à son actif, dont Tokooos certifié disque d’or, des tournées dans le monde entier, des stades de tout le continent africain à l’AccorHotels Arena de Paris complet en passant par les USA, Fally a su transcender les genres et s’élever au-delà même des frontières africaines, mêlant habilement musiques traditionnelles congolaises (rumba, ndombolo) et sonorités plus « pop urbaine ». C’est fort de cette volonté que Fally a développé de nombreuses collaborations sur son album « Tokooos » en 2017 où se côtoient Booba, MHD, Wizkid ou encore Aya Nakamura...
