Happy Birthday to the legendary Manu Dibango! Your saxophone grooves and vibraphone rhythms have kept us dancing since "Soul Makossa" first hit our ears in 1972. Honestly, we're still trying to figure out exactly what "Mama-ko mama-sa maka-makossa" means—but whatever it is, it's timelessly catchy!From jazz festivals around the globe to inspiring generations of musicians with your vibrant energy, you've truly made every stage brighter. Here's hoping this birthday brings you as much joy as you've given fans worldwide—because let's face it: nobody makes a sax sing quite like you do. Keep grooving strong; you're simply saxy!
