London Afrobeat Collective
Добавлен 12 янв 2011
This 8-strong collective from England, Italy, France, Congo, Argentina and New Zealand combine traditional afrobeat and hi-life with funk, jazz, Latin and dub to deliver party music born of their truly global DNA. A regular hit on the UK and Europe touring circuit and celebrated for their raucous energy, heavy dance grooves and conscious lyrics, the band has rocked major stages from Glastonbury Festival (UK) to the Shrine in Lagos, Nigeria, via Imagina Funk (Spain), Fusion Festival (Germany), Cully Jazz (Switzerland), Tempo Latino (France), Earth Garden (Malta) and many more.
LAC’s original music and multi-lingual performances in English, Spanish, Lingala and French have won them admirers across Europe. Their fourth studio album Esengo (Canopy Records - release date 14 February 2024), which means Joy in Lingala includes the new single Topesa Esengo Na Motema (Let Us Give Joy To The Heart) with a remix by Bosq.

London Afrobeat Collective - Topesa Esengo Na Motema
LAC’s first single on Canopy Records.
Sung in Lingala by lead vocalist Juanita Euka, ‘Topesa Esengo Na Motema’ (Let Us Give Joy To The Heart) is a call to live life to the fullest and do whatever it takes to live with joy in your heart, even in the face of adversity. Influenced by artists such as Juanita’s late uncle Franco Luambo as well as Pat Thomas & Fela Kuti, it’s the first single from their forthcoming album ‘Esengo’ dropping in Feb.
This song is an expression of celebrating joy. Inspired by the Congolese rumba influence. This style of music in DRC, before the independence was a force of resistance against the colonial powers that were governing in Congo.

Tolembi! We are tired - of the governments of the world and their hypocrisy when it comes to human rights. We are asking - for all people to be able to live, love and evolve together. We are fighting - to stay positive and proactive to create the change that is needed.
