Rumbafrica
was founded in 1992 by Tshibangu Kadima, who was born in Lubumbashi in
Congo. Kadima came to the U.S. originally to study Computer Engineering
and graduated from Northeastern University. He introduced New England
to SOUKOUS music. The Boston-based group performs music and dance
combining rhythms of traditional Congolese rumba (a variant of the Cuban
rumba) with the modern non-stop soukous beat. Kadima composes and
writes the troupe’s songs and choreographs their dance. Their
repertoire includes songs in French, Swahili, Tshiluba and English and
reflects Kadima’s hopeful vision of life and his prayer for positive
change in Congo. Kadima songs convey a message of peace. He conducts
entertaining and educational workshops in schools and universities
around the country. He incorporates music and dances in various FASHION SHOWS taking place in USA. Rumbafrica
is the Boston area’s premier dance band and has received numerous
awards including the Boston Music Awards for Outstanding World Music Act
in 1995 and an Award at Artscap 97 Festival in Baltimore MD for
Outstanding World Music Act. What is NEW is that on November 15, 2014
