Fally Ipupa gives fans a heavy, emotional record as “Hommage” arrives inside his new project, a tribute to Vally Amisi. The song sits on XX : Délirium, the 51-track double album that landed on September 18, 2026.
Listeners who know Fally for his romantic and celebratory side may not expect something this somber. But “Hommage” is a different kind of record, and it earns its place on the tracklist. He wrote it for Vally Amisi, a young Congolese entrepreneur and sports executive whose sudden passing hit the Kinshasa community hard.
Instead of celebrating, Fally Ipupa uses “Hommage” to sit with the loss. He reflects on what it means to keep living with the space someone leaves behind. The grief gets heavy enough that he reaches for medical imagery, describing an “emotional coma” when the separation becomes too much to carry.
So does it meet what fans were waiting for? That depends on what they wanted. Anyone hoping for another dance record will find something quieter here. Yet the song gives the album a personal moment of remembrance, and it shows Fally turning real pain into music people can hold.
