Our guest this week is Pongo. Born in Angola, she emigrated to Portugal as a child, and, as she tells DJ Edu in a moving and uplifting interview, music pretty much saved her life. She’s just released a new EP of songs inspired by her childhood memories of Angola, and bringing Kuduro to a wider audience by mixing with other musical styles and rhythms.
