The award-winning music documentary film The Rumba Kings celebrates the epic quest of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, an African nation that fought colonial oppression, found freedom, and forged a new identity through music. In the 1950s, when the Democratic Republic of the Congo was a Belgian colony, a generation of Congolese musicians fused traditional African rhythms with Afro-Cuban music to create the electrifying beat of Congolese Rumba. A beat that would carry Congo through its independence and conquer the entire African continent with its infectious groove, captivating guitar licks, and smooth vocals.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":82305,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"portfolio_category":[323,215,224],"class_list":["post-82300","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio_category-films-2021","portfolio_category-selections-officielles","portfolio_category-long-feature"],"yoast_head":"\n
