Jean-Pierre Mongambi, also known as "the rapping priest," roams the most deprived neighbourhoods of the Congolese capital to evangelise young people. He has become a celebrity in the DRC, and beyond, with rap tracks that reprise psalms and prayers, and concerts widely shared on social media. (Photo by Hardy BOPE / AFP via Getty Images)
