"The Queen of Kuduro"

Lisbon-based Angolan singer, songwriter and performer Pongo has established herself as one of the best Afro-fusion artists working today. From her sold-out shows across Europe - known for their infectious energy - to her captivating COLORS studio performance, Pongo has become the avant-garde of modern African pop.

With her mix of Angolan influences and energetic electronic productions, she has built up a worldwide fan base. Her album "Sakidila" (which features the song "Kuzola" on the FIFA 23 soundtrack) was shortlisted for "African Female Artist of the Year" at the Kora Awards 2024. With the single "Katana" - a fiery, intoxicating song that catapulted her to #3 on the TikTok Viral Charts - Pongo ushered in a new creative cycle.
