Les mamans du Congo mix tradition, rap and electronica with brio. These women from Brazzaville, Republic of Congo, have teamed up with French beatmaker and producer Rrobin to concoct an original musical sauce. They’ll be in concert at Nuits d’Afrique this Wednesday, July 16, on the free outdoor Loto-Québec stage in the Quartier des Spectacles’ quiet Esplanade.
Our journalist Michel Labrecque spoke with Gladys Samba, the group’s founder and singer, and her two arranger acolytes.
