African musicians have had a love affair with latin music especially with Afro Cuban music for many years dating back from the50s. Many bands from mostly French speaking African countries popularized the Cuban son montuno style along with some of the hot salsa hits which where coming from the NewYork PuertoRico salsa bands. Many of the lyrics where in the various native languages or the most spoken languages of the country. The African salsa pioneers where from Senegal, Cote d’Ivoire, Mali, Guinee, Gambia, and Congo. This set is a showcase of some of the Africa salsa pioneers and current leaders of African Salseros
