Angolan singer Yuri da Cunha affirmed this weekend in Lobito city, Benguela province, that Angolan genre Kuduro (music and dance style) has conquered space in international market, particularly in Brazil.
According to the singer, who was speaking during a show with his band at the end of Fishing Sports International Tournament, dubbed "Lobito Big Game Fishing Tournament", Kuduro already is a reference at Diaspora.
Yuri da Cunha, who is also dubbed "Show Men", was currently in Brazil, during the local Carnival. He said that Kuduro dance is a product made by Angolans that despite being rejected in the beginning, it managed to conquer the national market and achieved other continents.
"I believe that Kuduro is already part of Angola's cultural identity.
He recognised that despite the success, it has been difficult to accept this musical genre nationwide, since many singers introduce improper words that offend the society morally.
The musician added also that there was a positive change on the side of many singers that in his point of view will enlarge the style and dignify the Angolan culture.
