“These songs are part of my DNA,” Paulo Flores tells Apple Music. On this exclusive playlist celebrating Africa Month, Angola’s leading kizomba and semba artist handpicks defining melodies from his past and present that offer hip-swaying glimpses into lusophone Africa and beyond. “They are part of me, part of my childhood, teenage times, and are part of me now,” he says. “These songs have a very special and important role in my life’s soundtrack.”
