[Yeremia Vindu @VinduYeremia]

Dans la culture Nande, certains noms sont donnés selon l’ordre de naissance dans la famille. MUMBERE est traditionnellement le nom attribué au premier fils.

Ainsi, mon nom dit déjà quelque chose de moi : d’où je viens, ce que je porte, et les racines qui m’accompagnent.

Et comme ce nom, ma vie contient plusieurs réalités : la guerre, la foi, l’école, et la musique.

Dans mon nouvel album KASUKU (14 titres), je m’ouvre sur tout cela à travers un mélange de rythmes traditionnels congolais, afrobeats, rumba, jazz et funk.

NEW EPISODE OUT NOW 🎬🇨🇩

What happens when talent meets curiosity—even when resources are limited?
https://t.co/XYUWn6MKFB

In Episode 4 of Congo Is More Than…, we meet @Answerkaviti , a Congolese musician, saxophonist, singer, and self-taught creator who reminds us that creativity can grow anywhere.

From teaching himself music to building and experimenting with his own instruments and materials, Answer’s story is about curiosity, resourcefulness, perseverance—and the dream of peace.

Because Congo is more than the stories of war and crisis that dominate the headlines.

Congo is creativity. Congo is talent. Congo is people who keep learning, creating, and building. 🇨🇩

🎥 Episode 4 is now available on https://t.co/XYUWn6MKFB

❤️ Support Music Beyond and help us continue telling these stories.

𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗧𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗚𝗿𝗮̂𝗰𝗲 𝗢𝗿𝗽𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲 — 𝗕𝘂𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗼. ❤️

More than 50 orphans, as well as a baby who is just a few months old, live at this orphanage.

Last Sunday, our Changemakers shared a moment filled with joy and creativity with the children. The day included dancing, games, singing, as well as practical learning: how to sew and repair shoes. 🧵👟

The children really enjoyed the activity, both for the new skills they discovered and for the beautiful moments they shared together.

At the end, their wish was simple and touching: 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗮 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵.

Because a small moment shared can become a big memory, and learning together is also a way of building hope.

𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝘄, 𝘄𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘄𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗼𝗳 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝘄𝗻: 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸.

This was a new initiative for our Changemakers, and the children’s response reminded us how meaningful regular creative and learning activities can be.

To make these visits possible on a regular basis, 𝘄𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁. Funding helps cover the materials, transportation, and other costs that make it possible for our Changemakers to return and continue creating these moments with the children.

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗮𝘀𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝘂𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸. 𝗪𝗲’𝗱 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗮𝘆 𝘆𝗲𝘀. ❤️

Je suis très timide, partout sauf sur scène.
Je fais la musique pour des moments dont on se souvient pendant longtemps.

Bienvenue dans mon univers, à la JAZZ-RUMBA
Où je reste moi congolais, nande tout en y ajoutant la beauté de la vie qui réside dans l’improvisation Jazz.

[Yeremia Vindu @VinduYeremia]

À très bientôt mes amis.
J’ai hâte de passer par Kinshasa pour vous rencontrer encore et que nous continuions ce que nous avions commencé.

🎶 𝗧𝗪𝗢 𝗔𝗥𝗧𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗦. 𝗧𝗪𝗢 𝗠𝗢𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗦. 𝗢𝗡𝗘 𝗦𝗢𝗡𝗚. — 𝗔 𝗖𝗢𝗟𝗟𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗛𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗧

Every song has a story.
This one has two.

@Yusubukasereka and @JcmSpecial came together to tell the stories of the women who shaped them: their mothers, Joséphine and Chachimwe.

Every morning, their mothers wake up early and head to the fields. They work under the sun, despite the fatigue. And when they return home, their day is far from over — they continue caring for their families.

These are the stories that inspired this song.

Through their music, Yusubu and JCM Final say thank you to their mothers — and to all the women whose love, strength, and hard work quietly help build a better future for their families every single day.

But there is another message woven into this song.

𝗧𝗼 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗴 𝗴𝗶𝗿𝗹 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳. 𝗕𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀. 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀. 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗱.

To Joséphine. To Chachimwe.
And to all the mothers who give so much, every day.

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂. ❤️🎶

People sometimes ask why music matters when communities are facing war.

This is why.

Music cannot stop bullets. But it can quiet fear, restore a sense of normalcy, strengthen community, and remind children that they are more than the conflict surrounding them.

That is why Music Beyond exists.

[Yeremia Vindu @VinduYeremia]

Dans le clip « MOYO », cette scène suggère-t-elle que les conflits qui meurtrissent la région trouvent aussi leurs racines dans des fractures mémorielles et culturelles jamais cicatrisées ?

Yeremia. The man. 🙌

The best Country Director anyone could ever ask for.

Thank you for everything you do for Music Beyond.

…And can we take a moment to appreciate how effortlessly he switches from English to French and back again?? 🤯🤯🤯

[Kaori Fujii @kaorifujii_net]

Twelve years… wow. 🤯

Thank you to everyone who has walked this journey with us over the past twelve years. I couldn’t be more grateful.

I hope you’ll watch this little message I recorded today.

Happy 12th birthday, Music Beyond. 🥂

[Music Beyond, Inc. @musicbeyond_org]

This story belongs to all of you.

🎂 Happy 12th Birthday, Music Beyond! 🥂❤️

À nous les âmes meurtries.

When artists grow, communities grow. 🌍

[Music Beyond, Inc. @musicbeyond_org]

Art doesn’t just reflect society.

It shapes it.

That’s why we invest in artists—not only to strengthen their craft, but to equip them to become educators, leaders, and catalysts for lasting positive change. 🌍

#BuildEmpowerLead #MusicForSocialChange

[Kaori Fujii @kaorifujii_net]

One of the most rewarding moments as an educator isn’t when a program ends.

It’s when the people you’ve mentored choose to invest in others.

When our Leadership Fellows came to us with the idea of leading their own workshop, I knew they had truly embraced the spirit of leadership.

This moment also belongs to our incredible trainers and mentors, @Yusubukasereka and @Answerkaviti. Through their guidance, encouragement, and unwavering belief in others, they inspired our Fellows to step forward and empower the next generation of Community Changemakers.

I couldn’t be more proud of our trainers, our Leadership Fellows, and our newest Community Changemakers. 💙🌱

[Kaori Fujii @kaorifujii_net]

This is exactly why I love asking our team to take photos. So many meaningful moments happen that I’d never get to see otherwise. 🥹

We’ll never say it enough.

We were honored to be captivated by the voice of @CireziEsther. Last year, she joined Music Beyond for an artists’ gathering with musicians, dancers, and young people living in the Kyaka Refugee Settlement in Uganda.

Artists like Cirezi remind us that music is more than entertainment—it can bring comfort, restore hope, and help communities heal, even in the hardest times.

To Cirezi and every artist who chooses to use their voice to uplift others: thank you.

VOUS AVIEZ HÂTE JE LE SAIS.
Maintenant Moyo est disponible sur https://t.co/H2w53MRjpO
C’est une des vidéos bizarres avec des scènes qui transporte la musique et ses sens des mots.
Parce que j’aime ouvrir le débat sur des questions à la KASUKU. Voici l’album.

ENJOY THE VIDEO.
