Rhumba

Rhumba is a vibrant music genre that originated from Cuba, heavily influencing and being influenced by African musical traditions, particularly in Central and East Africa. It is characterized by its upbeat rhythms, intricate percussion, and lively melodic lines, often featuring a fusion of guitars, brass instruments, and layered vocals. Rhumba's lyrics frequently tell stories of love, social issues, and daily life, delivered with warmth and passion. Artists like Kidum and Diamond Platnumz infuse modern elements like pop and reggae, whereas others like Meiway and Lucius Banda retain traditional vibes, showcasing the genre's versatility and enduring appeal across diverse audiences.
