Elegom Bounsa – Video by Angola’s Ho Chi Fu

Ho Chi Fu strikes again! If he is not yet a household name in your brain, then go check out his youtube channel NOW. He has established himself as the number one music video director in Angola, a country with a booming music scene, more and more cash, hence more and more good looking videos. Spread this one around, it shows Angola – and even Africa – in a way too many would not ever expect. Elegom Bounsa – slang/broken portuguese for he’s a good dancer, ele e bom dançar.
