form of dance music originating in Afrika (Cameroun, to be precise). Noted for its repeated bright-toned picked-guitar figures, chanting-style vocals (often in Douala) and sometimes brass accompaniment, makossa is very upbeat. Sam Fan Thomas is perhaps its biggest name internationally. For better or worse, makossa has become a staple ingredient of "world music".

Mike Maksosa’s fans 

This group is a culmination of good taste and good fashion. Where there are schools of the finest fish, there are Mike Maksosa’s fans. This group carries a level of elegance and sophistication that rival the Legions of Cicero himself. Your heart connects, your mind directs, and a symbiotic relationship between you and something external redirect.
Mike Maksosa’s fans are really something special. Whenever they walk by me, I get this tingly sensation, and a ring in my ears I can’t quite explain.
