“Yangye, The Evil Leopard” by The Kasayi Allstars ft. Basokin
Kasai Allstars, it’s Baluba music as authentic as it can get. They are less famous than Tshala Muana or Bayuda du Congo but nonetheless very good representants of baluba culture. This music is relaxing and the dance moves a delight. Enjoy!
