RD: 2021-04-16 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO & RROBIN | Les Mamans Du Congo & Rrobin | Fileunder: Hip Hop / Electronic |  | Sing to emancipate the African woman. A unique encounter between the Bantu lullabies of the Congo, electronic music and hip-hop. A hybrid project which gives pride of place to dance and which highlights the daily life of Congolese women in a daring way and above all connected with the times.
Gladys Samba, renowned singer and percussionist, had for years wanted to revive and popularize the lullabies of the Republic of Congo, considered as a true cultural heritage of his region. In 2018, with the help of the InstitutFrançais du Congo, she succeeded in doing this with the show "Les Mamans du Congo". Forks, plates, baskets, pestles and recovery equipment accompany with rhythm and subtlety the voices of the five mothers of the Congo.
For his part in France, the artist Rrobin has been exploring electronic music and hip-hop since 2013. In 2018, he produced the Déluge album in collaboration with distinguished guests such as Grems, SpoekMathambo, Nancy Fortune and HediYusef. More recently, Rrobin was brought to work with La Coopérative de Mai (Clermont Ferrand) within the framework of its device dedicated to young talents. On the label side, Rrobin is one of the eminent artists of the Galant Records label. On the show side, it has been part of our roster since 2018.
The InstitutFrançais du Congo and the Coopérative de Mai, partners on the "Visa for Creation" project, then had the idea of ??getting Maman Glad ´and Rrobin to meet in order to create an unprecedented blend of traditional sounds and current sounds . It was in the fall of 2019 that Rrobin decided to go to Brazzaville with Céline Frezza - sound engineer and artistic director of Galant Records - for 10 days of studio modeling. The project then comes to life through the recording of the first models. The common desire to make an album and especially a tour becomes evident when listening to the titles. | Track list | Track | Artist | Title | | 1 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Nkala | 2 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Bordel De Rap | 3 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Sans Pagne | 4 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Boum | 5 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Ngaminke | 6 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Mbila | 7 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Meki | 8 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Mwana Wu Dila | 9 | LES MAMANS DU CONGO AND RROBIN | Perle Precieuse |
