Is there Brazilian music similar to this Congolese song?

When I hear it I think of Brazil for some reason and I wonder if there is similar Brazilian music.

Brazilian music uses many Afro-Caribbean rhythms, originally from Africa. That would be the only similarity.

I think of Africa.

It doesn't sound like other African music I know (most of which is Nigerian).

Sounds like music from Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde. Must be a West African thing. Music from Angola sounds different. Anyway, there are many different Brazilian music styles and they were certainly influenced by the music of slaves from different parts of Africa.

Cape Verdean music is very different from the Congolese music. Compare that to this:

It would be in previous decades for region Rio de Janeiro. Would be African percussion and Portuguese music.

Lol, this doesn't even remotely resembles Brazilian music.

A funny fact, these african musics tend to be very rich melodically, in Brazil we lack creativity in this area.
