Editor's note

Uami Ndongadas, Lisbon's World Cup anthem makers

A Portuguese collective known for blending African rhythms with local sounds and a 2012 FIFA hit.

For their peak, listen to "Joga Bonito"; for their later vibe, try "Tudo Bem" from 2016.

Their track "Joga Bonito" became an official anthem for the 2012 FIFA World Cup, giving them a global moment. Songs like "Tó Fumado (part. Paulelson)" and "Não Dá Mais" show their knack for collaborative, rhythmic grooves. In 2016, "Tudo Bem" addressed Portugal's economic crisis, adding a political edge to their work.

They started with albums like "Uami" in 2011 and "Liberdade" in 2013, mixing African, Portuguese, and Latin American influences. Over time, they've worked with various artists, from T-REX to Paulelson, without sticking to a fixed lineup or sound.
