We continue relaxation week with a 3 Minute Epiphany from Angolan-Portuguese electronic musician Pongo.

We continue relaxation week with a 3 Minute Epiphany from Angolan-Portuguese electronic musician Pongo, who started rapping over kuduro dance routines at Queluz train station in Portugal, when she would travel every week to physiotherapy. She went on to join kuduro dance collective Buraka Som Sistema, making her musical debut on their album Black Diamond. We caught up with Pongo to find out what she does to relax, when the world around seems slightly hectic.

All this week we're relaxing and we encourage you to join us. We'll be chatting to some of our favourite artists and asking them to share their top tips for switching off and taking time for self care.
