Good timezone fediverse,
Today's song is Mona Ki Ngi Xica by Bonga

Bonga is a folk and semba singer and songwriter from Angola. While Angola was a colonised part of Portugal he competed in track-and-field and held the Portuguese record on 400m for a while

His songs are generally a mixture of Portuguese folk sounds, semba, kizomba and latin elements

This song was featured on the soundtrack of the 1996 film When the Cat's Away

The minister of Culture, Rosa Cruz e Silva, reaffirmed on Sunday in Luanda the need for young Angolan musicians to invest strongly and seriously in the preservation of the music style of Semba, characteristic of the country as a way to keep it in the spotlight.
