The band had the peculiarity of featuring as much as seven lead vocalists, nicknamed the "6 Patrons of Langa Langa Stars".
The "6 Patrons" were Esperant Djenga Ka, Djuna Djanana, Dindo Yogo (all 3 of them ex-Viva La Musica), Evoloko Jocker, Djo Mali and Bozi Boziana (all 3 ex-Zaiko Langa Langa).
Their dance style sansaku became a craze of the times.
Members began leaving in 1983, and by 1984 of the original seven only Evoloko Jocker was left.
He continued to lead the band with new members, but by the end of the 1980s Langa Langa Stars was a name that Evoloko used under which to present what were essentially solo albums with session musicians.
