Donkarleon a.k.a. Senzangakhona was born in Kinshasa (Congo) and raised between Choisy Le Roi (South of Paris/France) and Rotterdam (the Netherlands). His musical career started at the age of 5 in the catholic choir of his grandfather. As an admirer of Soul music, his mother introduced him to soul legends like Marvin Gaye, the Pretenders and The Jackson 5.
In 1994 he worked as a radio announcer hosting one of the first and only rap show called "Tha Sheeznut" on the regional station Radio Voorne in Hellevoetsluis (south of the Netherlands). For two seasons he hosted this show and in the meantime puts his first band together with a mixture of Salsa, Rap and Soul.
After this rich experience he decided to create a new rap formation with another rapper, Smoke D (Rudolf Dosselt) and a couple of friends in Hellevoetsluis and Spijkenisse (South of the Netherlands). A new musical formation called the "Hellfamilly" was born. Four years later, the name changed to the “M.O.C”.(Mentaly Organised Confusion) and comprised of several rappers from other cities and even from outside the Netherlands.
In 1999, due to some life circumstances, both organizations felt apart. In 2000, he left the group and began to concentrate entirely on studio work.
In 2001, he entered a second music competition called “De Grote Prijs Van Zuid Holland”. In this year he also followed different courses such as sound-effects and took piano lessons. He also built his own professional studio and started his own record label to bring his music under his own management: "Lamiltoni Media Vision".
In 2002, he returned on several stages, gave performances, composed and also wrote a mixture of Salsa, Merengue, Soukous, Rap, Soul and Gospel compositions for many new and upcoming artists from several parts of the world.
He also worked with well known African musicians such as Djeny Fimbo and Augisto Nzingi (from the band of Koffi Olomide).
In 2004, he released two very successful albums: Trésor Biyenga - Equation (gospel) and Muinguilo- Tuzolana (reggae).
Donkarleon first single is expected to be launched around August 2005 and will be called "YA YO!!"(It’s Yours in Lingala, one of the native languages from Congo)
His first album will follow in January 2006 and will be called "COLTAN (Truths of a Tragedy).Have you performed in front of an audience?fo sure ..live peformance with my band
