  • The raw power and energy of Jalikunda's djembe drumming riveted the attention and delighted the crowd that attended the 1st African Music Festival on the tiny Island of Montserrat in the Caribbean in 2013. The festival, held in Salem Cricket ground, was repeated the next year and on popular request, Jalikunda returned and wowed the crowds in Montserrat again.

    I've never realized how black Africa had so much influence over Brazilian culture until I watched this. The people enslaved brought to our land so much culture and, with their struggles and everything they had to go through, they made who we are now. I, as a direct descent of black Africans, am so proud of my ancestors and all the lessons they taught us. It was a sad part of our history, but a lesson that made us resilient and strong and also full of life and willing to show the world the rhythm and the passion we have. My dream is to visit the continent and especially Angola. Love from Brazil, your brothers and sisters from another continent. ❤️
