In 2020 an estimated 100,000,000 (yes, that’s right, one-hundred-million) people watched the live Super Bowl performance by Shakira and Jennifer Lopez. At approximately 13 minutes into their set and as the first instrumental break of “Waka Waka”, it was Syran’s hit “Icha” which was sampled. A high profile slot, but he didn't get it by accident. From the 1960s even until today, Syran Mbenza is one of west Africa's most successful and highly-regarded guitarists – a true Soukous Maestro.
