Review by Neil Dsouza

Super Mazembe’s album Mwana Mazembe is a timeless classic that showcases the band’s mastery of soukous music. The album, released in 1983, features a collection of infectious and upbeat tracks that are sure to get listeners on their feet.

From the opening track “Shauri Yako” to the closing “Tawala,” the album is a non-stop party that showcases the band’s tight musicianship and infectious rhythms. The guitar work is particularly impressive, weaving intricate melodies around the pulsing basslines and driving percussion.

One standout track is “Samba,” which features a memorable melody and a lively call-and-response chorus. Another highlight is “Kassongo,” which features a funky, syncopated groove that is impossible not to dance to.
