"Vem Dançar Kuduro" (pronounced [vɐ̃j dɐ̃ˈsaɾ kuˈðuɾu], English: Come Dance Kuduro) is a multilingual Portuguese/English/Spanish dance hit single by Lucenzo, a France-based artist of Portuguese origin featuring France-based American artist Big Ali. Lucenzo sings in Portuguese and Big Ali in English and Spanish.
"Vem Dançar Kuduro" (kuduro being an Angolan type of music) enjoyed much success in France, with the single "Vem Dançar Kuduro" reaching number 2 in the SNEP French Top 100 charts (based solely on actual sales of singles) and number 1 on the French Club 40 charts (based on actual plays in 80 discos in France). "Vem Dançar Kuduro" was also a hit in Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland. Many popular remix versions of the song have been made since.
Following the success of the song, Lucenzo released a Spanish-language single "Danza Kuduro" with the reggaeton Puerto Rican singer Don Omar that samples on a large part on "Vem Dançar Kuduro", but is a distinct song. At times, both versions have appeared separately on the same chart in certain European countries. These include Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland where both songs were hits.
