É um álbum de 1972, mas continua atual e belo. "Song Around The World | Playing For Change"
"It is dedicated to a better future for everyone"
Music has a
remarkable power to transcend borders, languages, and cultures, allowing us to
discover a connected world through unifying melodies. "Mona Ki Ngi
Xica" Song Around The World, written by and featuring the legendary
Angolan artist, Bonga, is the quintessential song in representing that power,
conveying a message of unity, resilience, and hope.
Bonga’s album Angola 72, which featured “Mona
Ki Ngi Xica,” is one of the most influential and impactful albums recorded, as
it became the soundtrack for revolutionaries fighting for independence from
colonial rule. "Mona Ki Ngi Xica," which means “the child I’m leaving
behind,” was written and recorded in the Netherlands by Bonga in exile and
smuggled back into Portugal and Angola, thus becoming a pillar for representing
significant political and social change.
Bonga’s
artistry and tenacity is a prime example of the collective force of music that
brings people together, bridging gaps and inspiring action towards a brighter,
more harmonious future. You can’t rewrite history but you can create a better
future. — Mark Johnson
