Bembe (ibembe, kibeembe, beembe), there is all the African reflection in this Bantu language. Bembe language, from the south of the Republic of Congo, in one of the many languages of Africa. Perhaps 200,000 babembes living on Bouenza coast, and of the Kongo ethnic group, speak this language.

The Bembes are less numerous than Kongos and Tekes since they represent only 1% of the population. In 1950 the creation of the journal "liaison", was an awareness and a rehabilitation of the Congolese culture. It was a forum for many writers, Paul Lomami-Tshibamba, Antoine Letembet-Ambily, Jean Malonga, Sylvain Bemba and others. For poets we must mention Jean-Baptiste Tati-Loutard "poems of the sea", Teophile Obenga, Maxime N'Debeka and of course Tchicaya U Tam'Si, considered today as one of the greatest African poets of French expression. Emmanuel Dongala, meanwhile, represents the novel with: "A rifle in hand, a poem in the pocket". The Republic of Congo, the former Congo Brazzaville is a rich and multi ethnic country.
