VERY interesting. I have known for some time about the Cuban Rumba and its African origin but had NO idea it was brought back to Africa by former slaves! Going to watch the next episode now :)

Hi! I enjoyed this very much. I've been looking up Rumba after finding Fally Ipupa's recent performance on the Colors instagram. Thank you for making this channel. Is there a part 2 to this?

Hi. Thanks a lot. For now, we've moved to Tiktok coz KZfaq is not giving us enough views for the amount of work put in. Either that or I can't figure out the algorithm, at least I've figured out TikTok. Anyway, I'm uploading more on Tiktok @rhythminafrica for more content. I'm working on Part 2 but only for TikTok for now. Will come back to KZfaq later.

This is beautiful and helpful, thank you for sharing all the knowledge in such a good way! You are a great teacher, appreciate the effort you put in to open the world of African music. I think music is the way to change this world and connect people and you do the work of the ambassador 😁

Is there a Spanish flamenco side to this as well? I ask bc I learned that this is an element but would like to hear your thoughts. I do know there is more than one type of Rumba and this might be why one is influenced or began in different places. Thank you for the input and the video.

Hmmm, not sure but it makes sense since Spain colonised Cuba.

Hey man, Love the videos. I have a podcast on Spotify called Hold Onto The Colours, I would love to have you on to talk about African Music. Sorry for the comment, I could not find an email on your page to message you.

African Rumba is inspired more by Cuban Son then by African Rumba.

"Beginning in the 1940s, Afro-Cuban [son] groups such as Septeto Habanero and Trio Matamoros gained widespread popularity in the Congo region as a result of airplay over Radio Congo Belge, a powerful radio station based in Léopoldville (now Kinshasa DRC). A proliferation of music clubs, recording studios, and concert appearances of Cuban bands in Léopoldville spurred on the Cuban music trend during the late 1940s and 1950s."

There’s a difference between rumba, soukous, & ndombolo

That's true. Will make another Rumba episode and add that. Thanks.

Did you realize that you named literally all Congolese artist and you didn’t simply highlight that African Rumba is from Congo 🇨🇩 Credit should be given where it’s due

True, I didn't realize that.
