Gaz Mawete
Gael Kapia Mawete, known professionally as Gaz Mawete, is a Congolese singer-songwriter, dancer, record producer, record executive, actor, television personality, and bandleader. He is the founder and CEO of the record label BNB Records, which also operates as his backing band. Regarded as a central figure in contemporary Congolese urban music, he is often referred to as "Boyika Machine". His music is a synthesis of R&B, Congolese rumba, soul, ndombolo, Afrobeats, and traditional folklore. Born in Masina, Kinshasa, Mawete first gained public attention in 2011 as a contestant on Vodacom Congo's Super Hook-Up TV, where his talent was discovered. After a series of early singles, he rose to prominence in Kinshasa through the critically and commercially successful singles "Etali Nga Te" and "Mukolo Ya Zoba", which were later featured on his seven-track EP Bombanda, released on 27 July 2017, and supported by the singles "Pika", "Lisolo", "Na Belaka", "Toko Tik'o Te", and "Bombanda". In November 2017, he won the Vodacom Best of the Best All Star contest with his standout performance of "Pika", leading to a contract with the French-Congolese label Bomayé Musik.
