He wrote and composed a vast catalogue of music, estimated to be over 1,000 songs, including:
* "Mario": One of his most famous and enduring songs, known for its catchy rhythm and political message.
* "Eswaki": A song that criticizes colonial rule and the exploitation of Africa.
* "Lola": A romantic song about love and longing.
* "Bango Ya Kongo": A song that celebrates Congolese identity and culture.
* "Congolaise": A national anthem for the Democratic Republic of Congo.
These are just a few examples of the many songs he wrote. His lyrics often addressed social and political issues, but also explored themes of love, life, and loss.
It's important to note that "Lutumba-Lu-Vilu na Wundu" was a pen name used by Franco for his songs, and not his actual name.
