Singing to emancipate African women. A unique encounter between Bantu lullabies from the Congo, electronic music and hip‐hop. A hybrid project that gives pride of place to dance and highlights the daily life of Congolese women in a bold and above all contemporary way. 2023 will see the grand return of Les Mamans du Congo and Rrobin, with Ya Mizolé (which literally means “second album”). The album was teased by the 4‐track EP “Kikento” in spring 2023. Their music has become a veritable laboratory, with Rrobin bringing his grime, drill and boom bap riffs and layers to bear on the various rhythms of the Congo. Electronising percussion, rapping about everyday life in Brazzaville, preserving Les Mamans du Congo & Rrobin perpetuate memories and bring a new dimension to African music.
