Johnny Fataki Moko, was a Congolese-born British music promoter and events organiser based in the United Kingdom.[1][2] He was known for promoting Francophone African artists in Britain and was the founder of Congo To Global, a media and events platform focused on Congolese culture and entertainment.[2][3][4] He died in London on 13 August 2026.[5][6]

Career

Moko worked as a promoter and intermediary in the British entertainment industry, where he helped African artists build ties with entertainment companies and financial partners. Congolese cultural figure Zacharie Bababaswe said Moko helped French-speaking African artists enter the British market.[5] A Music In Africa Foundation profile states that Moko previously worked as a branding designer at Universal UK and held management roles involving comedian Eddie Kadi and Congolese musician Awilo Longomba.[2] He also managed music business and branding at Trace UK.[2]

Congo To Global

Moko founded Congo To Global, a UK-based company that promoted Pan-African history, popular culture, entertainment, arts and innovation. It paid special attention to Congolese communities around the world and people of Congolese descent.[3] The company organised concerts featuring Francophone African performers including GIMS, Dadju, Tayc, Ya Levis, Tiakola, and Franglish at the O2 Indigo in London.[3][7][4] It was registered as a company in the UK in June 2020, and Companies House records show that Moko became a director in December 2021. He was later listed as a person with significant control before the company was dissolved by compulsory strike-off in March 2026.[8][9] It was also named as the producer of Fally Ipupa's planned concerts at London's O2 Arena on 24 and 25 October 2026.[5][6] The Agence Congolaise de Presse reported that Moko was involved in preparations for the concerts at the time of his death.[5][10]

Death

Moko died in London on 13 August 2026 after a long illness, according to his family.[11][6][5] His sister, Carine Moko, announced his death. Tributes followed from figures in the Congolese and wider African music industry. Moko was the son of Jeannot Pétrole Fataki, the younger brother of singer Evoloko Jocker, a former member of Zaïko Langa Langa.[5]
