Today, Kinshasa collective KOKOKO! announce a brand new single, and the first new material since the release of their debut album Fongola. Featured as part of the new FIFA 22 game (out now), Donne Moi is an expansion on their unique sound – built from a combination of handmade unique instruments from their home in Kinshasa in the DRC, and electronic production, it's an exhilarating and compelling listen from an important collective.
Discussing the single, the group offered the following.
"We recorded ‘Donne Moi’ in Brussels just before the pandemic hit, and we are happy it’s finally seeing a release. The song is about giving back. Giving, as well as receiving, shouldn’t be always one way."
Fongola was released in 2019 to critical acclaim. The band is currently working on new material which will surface in 2022.
