Kwassa Kwassa is a soukous album by Kanda Bongo Man, released 1989.

Critical reception
Martin Aston, reviewer of British music newspaper Music Week, left warm and positive overlook on album. He wrote: "Francophone soukous practically defines the genre and energy; entwining, zinging guitars, tight rhythms, honey-sweet choruses, non-stop organic from top to toe." The only thing that he doesn't liked was absence of "helpful sleevenotes" on coverart. Myles Boisen of AllMusic found the music "very uptempo and infectious".
