Correct answer: Semba

Semba is a traditional Angolan music style characterized by lively rhythms. Its name comes from the Kimbundu word 'masemba', meaning 'a touch of the bellies.' While Kizomba is also incredibly popular worldwide, it developed much later in the 1980s as a fusion of semba and Caribbean zouk. Photo: Thesupermat, Wikimedia Commons, CC BY-SA 3.0.
