There are a couple of types of music played in Angola. The most common one is Kizomba; it’s a slow genre, almost like rumba in style but completely different. Artists often mix some hip hop into Kizomba. Kizomba is also often danced with a partner. Then there’s Kuduru, which is a kind of fast-paced dance music. There’s a similar kind of music in the northwest, in Côte d’Ivoire. Lastly, there’s Angolan hip hop and R&B, which is just normal Western-style music, except the lyrics are in Portuguese.

Cairo Egypt. 8. Kigali Rwanda I think all other cities are probably just nice in one area but may generally and largely remain under developed in most parts of the city. Angola also had a good standard of living

You can use the ATM and draw money. The maximu is 40.000 AOA at one draw at each time, so it means that you can draw as much as tou card limit. If u card has a limi for 120.000 you have to draw 3 times 40.000.

Yep, we gotta some really got talented sculputures and painters, but since we struggle with poverty people do not have time to appreciate stuff like that. They are mostly found in public plazas or in the streets far away from the central city, but they are dwindling in numbers cause almost no one buys their stuff, so went on to do other stuff with their lives…
