Urban Kiz

Urban Kiz, a contemporary offshoot of Kizomba, is a sensual and rhythmic music genre that blends traditional Angolan beats with modern influences from R&B, hip hop, and electronic dance music. It retains the slow and smooth tempo of Kizomba while infusing it with a more pronounced and syncopated beat structure, giving it a distinct urban edge. The genre often includes digital sound enhancements and a heavier bassline, catering to the tastes of a younger, cosmopolitan crowd seeking innovation on dance floors. Artists like DJ Paparazzi and Elji Beatzkilla have become synonymous with Urban Kiz, contributing to its evolving soundscape that's as captivating to listen to as it is to dance to, characterized by its driving beats and melodic lines that draw from diverse urban soundscapes.
