Congolese superstar Fally Ipupa has shared his new single “Science-Fiction” via Elektra France / Warner Music France which is now available to stream on Apple Music, Spotify and Deezer. A rhythmic ode to African rumba, “Science-Fiction” has arrived with a cinematic music video.

“Science-Fiction” follows his previous single “Bloqué” which was released in late July with a music video that has already garnered 7 million views. To date, the Congolese artist has over 20 million combined social media followers, hundreds of millions of streams, and was just nominated for Best International Act at the 2022 BET Awards.
For over two decades, Ipupa has helped pave the way for Congolese and African music in the mainstream, honoring the legacy of African rumba while updating its sound for today’s audiences. He was part of the first wave of musicians to fill large venues in France with Congolese music – in 2020, Ipupa sold out Paris’ 20K+ capacity Accor Arena.
In addition to his music, Ipupa gives back to his community through philanthropic endeavors in partnerships with UNESCO, UNDP and UNICEF, currently serving as a national ambassador for the latter in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Since 2017, Ipupa has worked directly with UNICEF in the fight against malnutrition, which affects 10 million children across the DRC every year.
