Soukous: For an introduction, I'd recommend The Rough Guide to Franco/Le TP OK Jazz. Some of the earliest examples on the album have a Cuban rhumba feel. My favourites by him would be Chacun Pour Soi and Infidélité mado
Other artists I'd recommend - Diblo Dibala who played guitar with various groups including on this track Iyole and Sam Mangwana - Suzana
Zouk has popularity in both the Francophone areas of the Caribbean and West Africa. I highly recommend ANYTHING by the group Kassav', since they've been so influential. Much of their music is sampled by artists outside the genre. The albums Majestik Zouk and Vini Pou. I consider Rété their best track.
African zouk - Afrik Melody by Chorus and Bod Guibert 's Si Man Lé Save
Bonus: If you like Latin music, you may be interested in the parang music of Trinidad/Tobago . A type of Christmas music that is sung usually in Spanish ( it originated in Venezuela). Daisy Voisin-Goipe
