1973 Billboard 2 June 10/1 (advt.) The outstanding version with the authentic African Sound, the ‘Hot Flute’ refrain and exciting arrangement which builds up to a true Makossa ‘frenzy’ ending.

1985 J. Collins Afr. Pop Roots vi. 49/2 Makossa music, the Cameroonian form of Highlife, is a base for new creations like the Disco Makossa of superstar Manu Dibango.

1987 C. Stapleton & C. May Afr. All-stars ii. 98 Like asiko and ambasse bey, makossa changed with the times. It became a guitar and percussion music, and absorbed flavours from highlife, rumba and merengue.
