Thanks for getting this thread started! To follow up with the great suggestions above, how about some love for Cameroon? Please add to these, as there are just a few to get started here and I’m not an expert at all, just some of my favorites below; please add if you love some Zouk, Soukous, Makossa, Ndombolo, Bikutsi…will follow up with some Central African favorites later.
Cameroon:
Henri Dikongue
Sally Nyolo is great too:
Grace Decca is a longtime favorite, but hard to find some of her music online for some reason:
Manu Dibango as many know Soul Makosa
Of course, Petit Pays-a little 'Sans Visa':
K-Tino (not so risque):

I tried to post links to some videos/music, but MusicBanter won't allow me to do this until I've posted 15 times...sorry, but the names are there for you to look up! I'm sure I'm missing a lot here, any others anyone can share?
