Reine Makoua "Afro-Ngoli Tour" - concert à Paris

Six-time winner of the awards for Best Female Artist 242, Best Female Singer 242, Best Tradi-Modern Artist 242, Intercontinental Revelation of the Year, Winner of the Tradi-Modern Duel of the Year, and Cultural Heritage Ambassador, Reine Makoua is regarded today as one of the leading ambassadors of the new generation of Congolese music. At only 22 years old, she has established herself as a vital figure on the female music scene of the Republic of the Congo.

Her artistic journey began in the early 2020s within the Kingoli Universel orchestra, led by President Davy Kassa. For two years, she developed her talent there, forged her artistic identity, and gained solid stage experience. In 2022, she chose to launch a solo career, with the ambition of offering an authentic musical world inspired by traditional Congolese sounds revisited through her unique style, Afro-Ngoli.

The year 2025 marked a major turning point in her career. Reine Makoua delivered an exceptional season by setting 23 records, a performance that reflects the growing public enthusiasm for her work. That same year, she unveiled her debut album, Afro-Ngoli “Correction”, a project praised for its originality and its ability to showcase Congolese cultural heritage through a resolutely modern approach.

Driven by ever-growing popularity, the artist launched the Afro-Ngoli Tour in 2026, her first major tour. Starting on July 4 in Brazzaville, this series of concerts traveled through several cities in the Republic of the Congo before concluding on November 14 in Paris, cementing the national and international dimension of her artistic project.

Through her music, her stage energy, and her dedication to Congolese culture, Reine Makoua embodies a generation of artists determined to showcase the musical richness of the Congo on the greatest stages of Africa and the world. Her journey, marked by excellence, innovation, and closeness with her audience, makes her an essential reference in Congolese tradi-modern music.
