    This is not just an intriguing African music history lesson, it’s an exuberant dance set.

    It all sounds like the best kind of disco, but warmer and funkier and rougher around the edges.

    With Pop Makossa, the music's backbone is exposed--the complexity of the genre, bringing together multiple national musics alongside Congolese rumba, highlife, and later, funk and disco, leads to singularly compelling long-form grooves. [Aug 2017, p.51]
