Biography

David Lubega Balemezi (born 13 April 1975), known professionally as Lou Bega, is a German singer. He is best known for his 1999 single "Mambo No. 5 (A Little Bit Of...)", a remake of Pérez Prado's 1949 instrumental piece, which reached No. 1 in many European countries and was nominated for a Grammy Award. Bega added words to the song and sampled the original version extensively. Bega's signature musical sounds consist of combining musical elements of the 1940s and 1950s with modern beats and grooves.
