The “Gelongal” group broken by death

The Gelongal group, emblematic of Senegalese musical production, is now broken by the loss of its members, tragically taken by death.

In 2018, Papis, while returning from Blaise Diagne airport, lost his life in a fatal accident. His sudden death left an immense void for his loved ones and for the artistic community, which praised his qualities and his talent. Today, November 10, Samba joins him in the afterlife, leaving Moussa alone facing a world of sadness and the challenges of the group’s sustainability.

These three brothers, who contributed to the success of many musicians, today see their bond broken by the “grim reaper”, marking an immense loss for the Senegalese cultural industry and leaving a deep imprint in the collective memory of the public.

These three brothers, Moussa, Samba and Papis; was a trio of men who made up a group made up of a painter, a computer graphics artist and a specialist in general mechanics. In addition to being a rap group, Gelongal has produced artists, excels in the production of video clips.
