Francisco Fellove (October 7, 1923 – February 15, 2013) was a Mexican nationalized composer and singer, originally from Havana, Cuba. He was contemporaneous with notable figures in Cuban music such as El Niño Rivera, Tito Puente, Chico O'Farrill, Celia Cruz, Olga Guillot, and Omara Portuondo. At the age of 17, he composed the song "Mango," inspired by the fruit sellers in Cuba who would proclaim their goods. Fellove's catchy refrain of "mango, mango, mango" resonated with audiences, leading to its recording by several artists, including Miguelito Valdés and Celia Cruz, as well as various interpretations across Europe and other countries.
