Biography
Candy Nkunku was born on November 11, 1983, in Kinshasa, Zaire. She is the fourth child in a family of four brothers and sisters. At a tender age, she grew up listening to Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, and M'bilia Bel. Recognizing her talent and soprano voice, her parents encouraged her to pursue a career in music. She enrolled in the National Institute of Arts (l'Institut National des Arts; INA) in Kinshasa to refine her vocals and pursue her passion for music. After graduating with a diploma, she took her first steps in music in the early 2000s as a Gospel music singer. She collaborated with several musicians as a chorister, notably with Christian singer Kool Matope and Frère Carlyto.
In 2002, she became a founding member of the Waasa group (le groupe Waasa) and participated in the Belgian African Week in Brussels, where she advocated against child abandonment. In 2007, she decided to shift away from Gospel music and joined Koffi Olomidé's Quartier Latin International as an artistic director, actively participating in the production of five albums, including "Bord Ezanga Kombo." She met Koffi Olomide at N'diaye studio in Gombe, Kinshasa, where Koffi was in search of a female voice for the song "Lily Kaniki." Koffi gave her the nickname "Cindy Le Coeur" (meaning "Cindy The Heart"). She was later featured in the song after meeting Koffi. In the same year, she featured Koffi in a song called "Ikea" on an unnamed album. Around 2008, Nkunku and Kof We don't have any photos for this artist yet.

This is women's history month and I want to focus on Congolese women singers that they have yet to sing together or the ones that should have sung together. I got two Congolese ladies that I selected for you guys for today.
Cette chanteuse est l'auteure de la chanson "Jardin d'amour" et une autre chanteuse qui est la chanteuse préférée du chanteur Koffi Olomide. Koffi Olomide est le patron du Quartier Latin. Cette chanteuse est une relative du grand musicien Maika Munan qui est connu pour ses travaux avec les musiciens comme Koffi Olomide, Papa Wemba, Madilu, Pepe Kalle et notamment Tabu Ley. Cette chanteuse était dans un orchestre avec la chanteuse religieuse Meje-30. Qui sont les chanteuses que je parle de?
They are Barbara Kanam and Cindy le Coeur or some say Cyndy le Coeur. Technically the same in my view anyway. Why did I select these two as a dream duo.
Because they are both are effective as romantic fanatics. Also, they have soft voices which I know pleases some folks who prefer softer voices. However there is a nice difference between Barbara Kanam and Cindy le Coeur. Cindy's soft voice is very feminine and pretty high while Barbara's voice is much more masculine and in the middle range in the female standard. In other words, not low enough or high enough. That is exactly why these two women must sing together. If Koffi Olomide wanted more money, he should encourage Cindy and Barbara to do a few duet songs together so he can get be involved in the guitar and musical production side. Koffi is good at playing the guitar if some don't know.
I found five Koffi Olomide songs that Barbara Kanam and Cindy Le Coeur should sing together. Koffi Olomide would only play guitar in these scenarios.
1) Diabolos (2008)
2) Drapeau Blanc (2003)
3) Micko (1997)
4) Lovemycine (2008)
5) Classe Tendresse (1993)
These five songs would have been per
