Mapumba

Mapumba is a Contemporary Afro-Indie Soul musician, vocalist, and producer based between Cape Town and Johannesburg. Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo and singing in English, French, Swahili, and Chiluba, his music seamlessly bridges Central African acoustic roots with modern indie soul rhythms.

Grounded in rich acoustic guitar arrangements and deeply personal storytelling, Mapumba’s live performances deliver a warm, uplifting, and atmospheric experience for luxury events, private gatherings, and international stages. As a qualified sound engineer with global credentials—including performances for the World Economic Forum and features on Putumayo compilations—he brings studio-grade audio precision to every stage he touches.

Following a series of acclaimed 2026 single releases, Mapumba’s 12-track album arrives on September 23, 2026, establishing his voice as an evolved, master storyteller on the African continent and beyond.
