BEST OF FAYA TESS RHUMBA VIDEO MIX - DJ ROYAL D

A Rhumba Masterpiece, Curated by DJ Royal D for Motrends Hub. Thérèse Kishila Ngoyi also known as Faya Tess was born on October 8, 1966, in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo. Renouncing studies leading to an engineering degree, Faya Tess joined one of the two great currents of Congolese rumba and school, namely the international Afrisa of Lord Tabu Ley Rochereau in 1986. She established herself as the essential element of the group. After ten years with Afrisa, she embarked on a solo career with her album Keba in 2000, which means "be careful, I'm coming". This album is a mix of different styles that she had mastered throughout her career. It is with this Keba Album that she received the prize for the best singer in Central Africa. With her voice wrapped in velvet, she sets hearts ablaze at the mere sight of her gentle eyes, hence her nickname the Freshwater Mermaid. The Freshwater Mermaid is one of the most popular rumba and soukous singers from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. She is one of the rare female voices whose echo has gone beyond African borders. She has recorded with many of her country's biggest stars, including Tabu Ley Rochereau and M'bilia Bel, Le Grand Kalle, Franco among others. she is one of the true followers and heirs of modern Congolese rumba.
