What permanently puzzles me is why, to play traditional music, you need modern synth drones in the background. Surely those weren't around in the 1800's....?? Very advanced, these traditional Native Americans!
for anyone that wants to make ignorant spats at people that may look white on outside with heritage shut up... (kolerocks 74 in mind,,,) we all have mixed heritage somewhere in the tree.
@25252docjohn Lakota is the proper name for what Europeans call the Sioux tribe. Sioux means snake and was what the Lakota's enemies called them and what the whites heared. Its not so nice to call somebody nick names,right? The Lakots lived as nomads on the plains but the Cherokee tribe were mostly into agreculture and farmed the land living in wellbuilt lodges. Did you know that the Cherokees constructed the first Native American Alphabet? You can google for more information.
I got to where I just do NOT care to read comments anymore~ so many haters and "so afraid we are gonna mistake one thing for another thing" types ~ come on ppl ~ give it a break already. If you wanna correct something/someone do it in a polite, considerate way ~ and NOT in a rude and bitter way, please.
@shenandoahliberty Thank you very much for your big and interessant answer ! My big problem is that I don't speack good english ! I only understand french !
@nativezone1 Where is the Tsalagi in this, but I guess unega asgaya Tsalagi nigvnhde?a dikanogisdi forgot to mention we are real people, not smokedreams huh?
@sutay1. I'm not saying the music isn't nice. I'm just thinking the Cherokee Nation should have a copyright of their name. Music is international as you say, but good music doesn't have to steal name and looks from somebody else, to be recognized as good. I saw some South Americans perform with the same type of music in the street of a small Swedish town. The music moved me so much that I broke into tears. It was so beautiful! I bought two of their CDs om the spot. But they didn't claim to be C
I have been a fan of South American Andean music for many years. Now, especially in Europe, they fuse North American tribal images in their costumes and music. It sells cds. They use both North and South American instruments - kenas, flutes, pan flutes. They have to sell cds to make a living. I do not mind the fusion, only the mislabeling, calling it by one tribe, when it is a fusion of many. I think the imagery on this video is compelling. It is not Cherokee; it is a universal human cry.
I have mixed Cherokee and European descent and this is not Cherokee.... but even in publicity for native american music and awareness people think if they dont wear Lakota feather (war) bonnett no one notices them.. i saw this happen in UK with Peruvian musicians wearing this on their head... that is atrocious and sad fact... no one recognizes southeast USA tribes anymore....
Do not worry; there are plenty of Cherokee descendants who know that Cherokee did not live in teepees or wear Sioux head feathers and hunt buffalo. More like log cabins and farming.
I can understand the frustration that the Cherokee people feel when seeing someone making money from using a famous name like: "Cherokee". Even I, who is a swede, living in my own country, Sweden, know that the feather bonnet and the tee-pee have nothing to do with the Cherokee tribe. I am quite sure the guy is south american. Probably from Peru. The nature in the pictures looks like that. Yes, the music is nice but the way of selling it is rotten. Let the true Cherokees be the only ones to use
have a look at the latest video I uploaded.we live in a world of fusion.me I am from holland.my people play jazz....but we are no negros....and nobodey bothers....music is international.we donot ofend anyone.just enjoy the music.
Nice video...but definitely NOT Cherokee. A little research would have been nice. It seems that some people think our culture is just a commodity to be used anyway they want, and very seldom represented accurately or truthfully. What the hell is this...a national "Let's Play Cherokee" sport?
@solomunay siyo (hello) my words were not as much in anger as frustration. If you are native, you understand...if you are not, honored lady, I do not have the words to make you understand.
Brother, I like the music but our people did not wear war bonnets nor did they live in TP's. That is all Hollywood. Truth should be from both sides. From a mixed blood
Tsi-tsa-la-gi (I am Cherokee). I am insulted with the many frauds calling themselves "Cherokee". This video has absolutely nothing to do with being Cherokee. We did not live in tee pees, the headdress he wears is not what we wore, the landscape is not from my land of my people and I do not hear any Cherokee being spoken. It makes me just ill with all the fakes making money of my people.
@weeyasvideos WADO!!!! This is a travesty, and just another example of these FRAUDS who steal our culture! They figure they've already stolen everything else, why not take what little we have left? They feel so free to just keep taking!

@xxmaxexstreamxx the men of my people did not wear warbonnets. This was adopted after assimilation to make money. The men of my people, the Cherokee shaved their heads with the exception of a small area in the back of the head. Many wore turbans with a feather. We did not wear warbonnets. That is a stereotypical tv imagery. If you get the chance watch the movie Reel Injuns.
