The Montrealer rakes in 3 continents and earns his living as a prolific artist. He may not be a superstar on the dark continent, but he&#8217;s respected by all, having shared the stage with the likes of Manu Dibango, Salif Ke\u00efta, Mory Kant\u00e9, Ray Lema, Didier Awadi, Lokua Kanza, Tiken Jah Fakoly and Zap Mama. Afro-Montreal griot Djely Tapa sings on a track from his 3rd album, <em>Transcestral<\/em> , released in 2023. Interviewed by Sandra Gasana for PAN M 360, Fredy Massamba tells us he draws on the great traditions of Central Africa, the ancestral repertoires of the Kingdom of Kongo and the polyrhythmic (pygmy) chants of the equatorial forest, to which he injects Afrosoul, hip-hop, jazz, soukouss and Congolese rumba. This is what we&#8217;ll be treated to on July 20 at 6pm at Nuits d&#8217;Afrique.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"aux Nuits d\u2019Afrique 2024  Fredy Massamba, le Congolais sur 3 continents\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pcbSOu0YikY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Fredy Massamba - Nalingi Yo (Official Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G7jarm-0-vw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n    <div class=\"panm-ads-wrapper alignfull\"><span class=\"panm-ads-copy\">Publicit\u00e9 panam<\/span><div class=\"panm-ads-render\" data-ads-id=\"121992\"><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fredy Massamba is one of the founders and choreographers of the world-famous Tambours de Brazza, winner of a Kora Award in 2012, and has since established himself as the \u201cAfro-soul voice of Congo\u201d on French radio.
