Musician Hugo Kafumbi leaves his mark with new single.

Hugo Kafumbi, adopted at the young age of 14, left his country, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, searching for a safer, better life, hoping to have a prosperous future. Kafumbi makes heart and soul music that we can't get enough of. Next to his music, he is also passionate about fashion and his country of origin.

The recording artist who is now based between Berlin and Prague released his highly anticipated single "Nguvu." The single in which he raps entirely in Swahili, also known by its native name Kiswahili, is a Bantu language and the national language of the DRC.

The record is, with its ominous hip-hop sound and trap-influenced beat, a must-listen.
