Le Zouk in Africa

It's a style of music with origins in Guadeloupe, Martinique, and other parts of the world, and this reggae-like music is enjoyed all over the world, mostly in francophone areas. In Yaoundé recently they had a huge Zouk concert, and this week, a friend of ours mentioned that he enjoys le Zouk. Wikipedia explains:

Zouk is a style of rhythmic music originating from the Caribbean islands of Guadeloupe and Martinique. Zouk means "party" or "festival" in the local Antillean Creole of French, although the word originally referred to, and is still used to refer to, a popular dance, based on the Polish dance, the mazurka, that was introduced to the French Caribbean in the 19th Century.^[1] In Africa, it is popular in franco- and lusophone countries. In Europe it is particularly popular in France, and in North America the Canadian province of Quebec.
