The story of the record

Mbongo Na Ngai Moko teams Awilo Longomba with Innoss'B, one of the most prominent voices of the new Congolese generation.

The record is a conversation across eras: the rhythmic language Awilo helped define in the 1990s, played with the production and pace of today's Kinshasa scene.

It is a good demonstration of why his catalogue keeps finding new listeners — the sound has never needed to be revived, only continued.
