“Kivu” by Tyson Meya speaks to peace, courage, reconciliation, and stability in the eastern part of The Democratic Republic of Congo. That part of the country has become a land of regional war ravaged by invasions and homegrown rebellion that have killed and displaced millions of people due to its richness in natural resources. The lyrics are sung in Swahili by vocalist Miolango Lady E backed by luscious horn lines and mesmerizing percussion. Meya’s work positions itself nicely next to notable artists including Angelique Kidjo, Hugh Masakela, and Tony Allen.
