The Ngoma Africa Band aka FFU also known as Anunnaki alien, the most successfull African live Band based in Germany has been vastly gaining popularity through an extra ordinary rhythm "Bongo Dance" from Tanzania and Neighbouring East African countries which always drives the europeans funs crazy.
Its more than two decades now that Band has a very concrete and stable recognition in the music market. This can be proved due to the invitations and angegements of the band in different international music festivals.
It was only recently the Ngoma Afrika Band performed in town and the outskirts of Tübingen , during the fastest and largest growing diaspora cultural event worldwide.
The natural dynamic music of the singers of the Ngoma Africa Band as a result of a largely a fusion and reasearch between traditional and mordern elements, creating a completely irestitible dancing groove and hypnotic sounds that makes the fans always going wild. The fans are the one who baptised the band into several names like FFU (Field Force Unit), because you are hit by a music by this force, also known as the Anunnaki aliens from special planet who appear on stage with only one job to thrill and make fans crazy!or "watoto wa mbwa " which means the fierce puppies because when you come across there rhythm you have no choice, one way or the other you will be biten by the beat, its a metaphorical expression which means find yourself unconciously dance!
All the compositions are written by the Ngoma Africa band leader Ebrahim Makunja aka commander Ras Makunja. The Ngoma Africa has two albums and several singles that topped the East African Charts. The domination of the music through international radios and other medias its no doubt an evidence. And all Albums and singles has become favorite. Always returning to the charts. The radios playing in a compilation thread like, because all the tracks you dont want to forget or ignore , attempt to resist no chance!.
More than 50,000,000 fans are estimated to admire the band, accrording to the different media sources. The band has gained the reputation the same to the cultural institution or music academy coz most of the musicians and dancers were once fans or those who adored the band before. For instance the youngest soloist Matondo Benda and even the drumer Jo Sausa aka surgent Major Jo Sousa,Gaiilo Proof, were once fans who always followed the band wherever performed.
Ngoma Africa Band led and founded by Kamanda Ras Makunja have talented musicians like Flora William,Jessicha Ouyah,Glory Mundeke,Aj Nbongo,Mo Benda,Gaiilo Proof, including mult-talented Chris-B Bakotessa.
