i dont have anything against ethiopian people but the ethiopian government doesnt wanna c somalia be peace they stole our land rape our women they holding western somalia ogaden region hostage they are somalis who r muslims where this song originated they speak somalian
I am Ethiopian (big up abesha) bt we east Africans have to stick together and he was singing an Ethiopian song in ethiopia so that means he respects us so y can't u do same n if u think we hate u ur wrong...
WHW....this is somali song as he is speaking in somali and he is got the somalian flag behind him in this video. there shouldn't be no argument about who he is..HE IS SOMALI!!!
K'naan is a Somalian like me and the rest of the somalians on my cHannels backgnroudn pictures, so K'naan is deffinetly not a ethopian...
even tho in eastern-ethopia the Somalian Ogaden-region is home to a couple millions of somalians, infact the largest most numerous Somali'an sub-Clan = the Ogaden-Clan Somalians, of the Cushitic Somali tribe... and it is the biggest region of all of ethopia, us Somalians traditionaly and ethnically OWN most of east-africa = Somalian = HORN of AFRICA

@dazebhen1 i think you missunderstand cushticsomalianmale, what he meant to say is culturely somalis are and have a strong influance in every part of east africa, for what its worthy i love ethiopian people and consider them my people but successive ethiopian governments (including hailey salasie) have been western agents and our enemies for so long so its very natural to find anti-ethio somalis and its mainly all talk most somalis would accept ethios b4 other africans, arabs, whites and such
I don't understand why Somalians run their big mouth on Ethiopia when there is nothing productive they can do to their own country. Clean you mess first and be civil among yourselves. Then other countries will respect you. Since you don't have that level of maturity, your country will remain a zoo. You have a long way to go before you compare your zooland to Ethiopia. You can learn a lot from K'naan by the way. Grow up for a change! Ethiopia doesn't hate you!

@CushiticSomalianMale Somalians like you put Somalia where it is today.Wise up,grow up and clean your mess before you talk rubish! Talk behind a screen doesn't make you important. Action like K'naan makes you respected. I have never said he is Ethiopian. We Ethiopians love him and love Somalians. You have so much hate over us but you are free to run your mouth. You know Ethiopians will slap you when necessary! So keep barking just don't dare us.You know the result!Respect your people first!
@CushiticSomalianMale dude chill ....its funny how u guys just pick a fight with ethiopia...we did nothing but be noce to u guys....own east africa my ass....ethiopia used to own the whole area including yemen...but we dont need much to be happy so we let it go

why the fuck is it that most of the comments on a knaan video are arguements between somalis and etheopians? i don't know how people can remain angry after listening to such beautiful music.
@WillardE4 indeed you got a very good point, regardless of where you from, i see you as a friend and a fellow hue-man broder/sister.. just because of the righteous comment and point of view you just shaired with youtubers, amongst the midsts of all this hatred and jelousy of my Somalian worldfamous artist from east-africa = the Somalian Horn of Africa = Somalia = Africa's biggest Coastline country!!!!!
@CushiticSomalianMale yeah, we're all african aren't we, and even if someone is not african, who cares! cause i truely believe that we are all able to communicate through music, and music is meant to create feelings of happiness and joy not hatred.
ey stupid you know what ethiopia is poor is the country this wold we are peter ethiopia that u know and your mother know that bullshitt kis me black aaaa
@aethiopidking most land in ethiopia are origanilly inhabitted by somalians, oromos, and sudaness but the facking tigrey colonize the all.......u moron
are you saying that somalis are native ethiopians? if yes you need to shut your fucking bantu mouth ok! listen freak since when colonize tigre sudanes? the abyssinian race or habeshas are from the same stock as the real ethiopians.go get some knowledge about ethiopians or shut your fucking mouth bitch!!!!
Thanks for the upload of this Somalian artist called K'naan which means the traveler in the eastern-Cushitc Af-SoMali language.....
Thanks again, and ignore the hateful commentators, indeed they havent got anythin more beneficial to do, other than act like internet mafia's.. lol so again thanks...
no hate no more discrimination between us,,,,,,,,,we are one no fucking matter how those political idiots separate us,,,,,,,how should i hate my poeple? no way that's sickness i love my poeple Somalis and Ethio,,,,,,,i can't ended up my live with freaking hate in my heart
your somali not a habashi, somalis and ethiopians have been enemies for over 500 years, you can't say political idiots separate us, they are the ones killing us, we are defending our lands, our honour and our people, get it? there is no politic in somalia , thats why you can't say "political idiots separate us" . instead of loving another country more than your own start to fix and help your own people, i will hate all ethiopians untill my people gets their rightful lands back. Somaliweyn, peace
Nice mixing Ethiopian beats with HIP HOP. Good he acknowledges that the beat is Ethiopian. He is a true Somali. He was in Ethiopia performing and it was great.
people just enjoy the song. its good and i have respect for k'naan. people who are complaining are immature. genetically we are the same ppl?? just with borders. Ethiopians,Eritreans, southern Yemeni, and parts of somalia. are all geneticaly the same. I do blame our communist era for this hatred. but com'on. lets have peace. at least were not white??
no, we are not the same, ethiopia is not 1 people, it is many different ethnic groups in one country wich many ethiopians disagree with, somalis are NOT ethopians, we have our own language , we have our own bloodline and our own lands, wich some of you have taken ffrom us, we somalis are somalis wich is a ethnic backround, we are not amharo nor tigrey or gaal modow/galla/oromo, if we were the same people then why do you kill us, why wont you give us back our lands, why do you hate us?
and k'naan is a man wich have no hatred for other people,he loves all africans and do you know why? he does not know what i know, he does not know our history as well as i do,he do not know anything about ahmed gurey/gragn or sayid muhamed abdullah hassan,he does not now anything about wiil waal.he has only heard their names and not anything else,i love k'naan,but this song is a somali song in a ethiopian beat,thats all,it does not mean ethiopia or ethiopians have something to do with this song.
@shishisennin what history do you know that knaan don't know? both Gragn and Sayid Hassan has a big statue in Mogadishu. They were in your history curriculum. You are just spitting the sensational History they spoon fed you. Hassan was a reigious freak just like some of you guys today. He was not fighting the colonials he was stealing from the Brits and Hides in Ethiopia,
And steals from Ethiopia and hide in Somalia. After a while British chased his out with 12 soldiers and Ethiopians distroyed his army. Finally he hide his identity and believed to have died in Arsi Ethiopia. If he was a real fighter he would have been loved by Menilik. Study Menilik and you will know he is not some coward expanding his empire. He fought clonialists. He cooperated with muslims from south to stop colonialists owning Africa.
@Kazza627 in the 1977 war ethiopian army outnumbered ours 10-1 plus they had logistics and weapons support from russia, america and, cuba albeit america were with us at 1st but changed sides becouse we would not let them dictate our hearts souls, ethio and other african neibours have always been the wests pet dog, my dad, cousins and uncles were fighting in that war and i lost family in it but i would forgive if it means union for the horn based on our brotherly blood ties and nothing else
@ethiolove098 u fuckin liar his not even speaking ethiopian its somalian when do ethiopians go 2 tha haj u guys r jews and christians and we r muslims
YO what´z wrong with ya all damn just enjoy the fucking music who care about ethiopian and somalian ppl uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuf just have fun or get ur sorry asses of the chair. uh uh uh!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I am somali and i lost respect for K`nan , Ethiopians are our historic enemies , we somalis will never befriend ethiopians as long as they killing and holding y force our somali brothersand sisters in ogadenia(westeen somali )
@Kazza627 , listen, why is somalis go to refuge to ethiopia? because it's close and they can't afford to go to any other country far away, they don't only go to ethiopia, they go to kenya, and yemen, and djibouti but djibouti is a somali state so that does not count as refuge. and you talk abour 1977? before you talk read the history mate, ethiopia could not win against the somalis alone, thats why russia and cuba had to help, otherwise we would kill you all and if you read you'll know it.
you know that you would lose BIG if you diden't call for help after cuba and russia, we reached addis in just a few month...what would we do in just a few years? same thing happend in 1529, we conquered ALL of ethiopia until the portoguse came and helped your sorry baboon pig eating asses out, we killed your king, we destroyed your churches, we even destroyed Lake Hayq , Lalibela and the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion.
in 1977 we took jijiga and the rest of the ogaden and harar, dire dhawa, yangudi, bale mitz, awash, awasa, nazareth, and the next target was addis ababa, and that was when you relized that you had no chance at all, that was when you called the russians and the cubans for help because the americans switched side to somalia instead of ethiopia, they wanted to be on the winning side, since america and russia were enemies in the cold war, russia switched to ethiopia and helped them, so what, habash!
@shishisennin In 1977 Somalia had the best equiped army in Africa. You didn't build it, Soviet armed you. Ethiopia was in termoil. War from north with Arab and Egypt funded enemy. Sudan helping insurgets from west. Many generals killed by Mengistu. The last few money we sent to buy arms from America was taken. And they helped you invade Ethiopia. To claim the few Russia and Cubans who came with the new purchased weapons for maintainance won the war makes you look even more coward.
@shishisennin Ethiopian airforce with only 4 old migs destroyed your latest 28 migs. If you had a chance, could have bombed all our cities. We lost one mig in 5 days war you lost 24 of them.The war was to dismantel Ethiopia which stood for Africa and it is too bad you were instrument in this shameful act.
Eth. taught and trained Mandella, helped liberate Zimbabwe, mozambique etc.. It even helped you somalis liberate from colonials. U r Too stupid to get it. Colonializm has warped your mind
@Kazza627 What do you mean Somalis in Ethiopia? The largest province in Ethiopia is Ogadenia...Why can't you let those Somalis secede? Because of oil?..There is no such thing as Ethiopians because the vast majority of the people that in that land are held against their will. The largest tribe in Ethiopia are Oromos, the third largest tribe in Ethiopia is Somali...so how are Somalis in Ethiopia opportunistic? Why don't you let them secede? 1977 your country got aid from 5 nations. Communist scums
WRONG! ogaden is not ethiopia, if it was why would the somali people step up to fight for their lands? Ogaden has been somali for thousands of years, thats were the somali tradition came from, i am not from ogaden, and by the way, where did the name ogaden came from? huh? the proof is there! ogaden is the name of a somali clan, thats why the region is called ogaden, because that somali clan called ogaden lives there! ogaden was given to ethiopia by britain, read history you prick.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Somalian and ethiopians have never been brothers and they never will, they are traditional enemies and they have been that for over thousand years, and a true somalian never shows eny love to an ethiopien beacuse of what they have done to our people, and i am disapointed at k'naan for rappin on a ethiopian beat...
ignorant son of bitch...got to change history and rewrite it. but your ignorant narrow mind is still stuck in the past and won't come out till ak 47 gets your 32 teeth out. if true Somalian is that way then same thing needed to be done
and you said "ignorant narrow mind is still stuck in the past", don't you understand? our history effects what happens today, thats why you need to read history to understand why things is like it is today, if you read Somali history you will understand why there is war in somalia, and why somalis hate ethiopians and why ethiopians hate somalis.
Loool K'naan did it again but this lyrics ain't a song is young kids song ( Girls ), i use to hear it when i was young my sisters use to love this song.
Respect K'naan Keep up the Good work bro I love his new song call ( The Great Depression) is the somalia national anthem
God may bless mohamed ahmed great ethiopian legend. k'naan, one of the greatest poet on our generation has paid his respect to the mohamed. k'naan way to go bro. this beat is killer. and k'naan killed it.
this is not ethopian shit.. its somali. i use to sing this song when i was young. shit i still do...lool and i have a friend name asha.i use to sing it to her. but zamzam wasnt her friend..shit i was. so he should say naya sagal but dont really say naya aight. lol
Mohamed Ahmed was a great ethiopian singer from 60s and this was his tune - the lyrics are Somali child play but K'naan gives respect where respect is due and don't be surprised if samples Sudanese or Umm-Kalthum or Bollywood..cos Mogadishu was a melting pot for all african, arab, indian back then
i dont get it , he mention something about using ethiopian beats so is he jus using the beat but rapping in somali? cuz all i hear is the dude rapin in somali and eng ,
kanaan thanks 4 comin out but dont watch ethoipian music but u should watch ur own peeps that keep givin ur country a nasy ass name......big up somilia...ya fuckin right
...it's my favourite Tilahun Gessesse song and i can't believe K'Naan remixed it!! its soooooo good, especially live!! the man is just talented, period.

W00T W00T!! lol so mohamed is ethiopian singer or somali?" indeed we are, yet to the dumb,uneducated, and blind negros we seperate ourselves from our common brothers and sisters worldwide, regardless of location.
A statement[phase] which is said at my children's African center school[Lotus Academy and Khepera charter school] that I proudly utter everyday," WE ARE ONE ALWAYS"
do you seriously fuckin think we fuckin want to live in this fuckin love lesss disgusting fucking shit filled hell hole u fuckin idiot dont even fuckin start comparing ethiopia or any other fuckin country in africa to your shit hole u freakin snake face we have more than 3thousand years of history and what ever u fuckin idiots think wont even touch a week worth
Check out the first ethiopian female rapper Miss Sheba at addisparadise(dot)com She's the next big thing in our community! Lets support our sister to the top!
UNITY & ACCEPTANCE=PEACE You haters of specific ethnicities are poisoned by common ignorance. Ignorance is not stupidity,though, so please have the sense to erase your hatred and free yourself from a mental state which has caused violence since pre-history. We all turn to dust. We are all one.
The hell with ethiopia.We share nothing.Our religions is different,our ethnicity is different,our language is different. I say to ethiopia: Go to hell!
Long Live Real somalis,not this stupid abdullahi and gedi.
thanks but i have them already. Yeah once he gets big i reckon he will still be down to eearth like he is now.He's on a different level to all the other losers who call themselves artists.
K'naan is a great singer and person, met him a few times and he is so humble. What a lovely person to have representing us Somalis. By the way this song is by TLAHOUN GESSESSE an Ethiopian artist.
yeah, my boyfriend met his brother at this show, he was looking for something and asked my boyfriend for help. They are completely regular guys just walking around [assuming no one knew who they were before the show]. I cant wait until he gets big, and he will.
Its so good to Somalians and Ethiopians Reuniting for once! I am very well proud and the positive comments! We are one anyway and what ever happened in the past is done. But i am very well proud of this vidoe and the responce. God bless Somalia and Ethiopia!
u so dumb can't u see what those habashi r doing to our beautiful girl in somalia they repping n killing our people.. U so dumb as Abdullah Yusuf dumb ass.
this guy is brilient man.. who'd have thought smt like this...he is geniuse....by the way, the song is somalia but the beat is ethiopian..don't get confused..
Hey guys same I thought what this Ethiopian title cause its SOMALIAN .... but please who ever posted this video please change it or add Somali ... cause OTHERS would assume it's the Ethiopian language he is sing in and its not its the beautiful LANGUAGE SOMALI :) .........
Actually, the song is taken from the Album Ethiopiques vol 17 (tlahoun gèssèssè). The song is called "Lantchi biye" and sung by thee legendary old skool super cat Tlahoun Gessesse.
this is ethiopian beat!! RIP Tilahun.

He was not fighting the colonials he was stealing from the Brits and Hides in Ethiopia,
Kazza627 1 year ago
And steals from Ethiopia and hide in Somalia. After a while British chased his out with 12 soldiers and Ethiopians distroyed his army. Finally he hide his identity and believed to have died in Arsi Ethiopia. If he was a real fighter he would have been loved by Menilik. Study Menilik and you will know he is not some coward expanding his empire. He fought clonialists. He cooperated with muslims from south to stop colonialists owning Africa.

@Kazza627 in the 1977 war ethiopian army outnumbered ours 10-1 plus they had logistics and weapons support from russia, america and, cuba albeit america were with us at 1st but changed sides becouse we would not let them dictate our hearts souls, ethio and other african neibours have always been the wests pet dog, my dad, cousins and uncles were fighting in that war and i lost family in it but i would forgive if it means union for the horn based on our brotherly blood ties and nothing else

I am somali and i lost respect for K`nan , Ethiopians are our historic enemies , we somalis will never befriend ethiopians as long as they killing and holding y force our somali brothersand sisters in ogadenia(westeen somali )
keysi07 2 years ago
"Historic Enemies"?? wtf dude
Is that why Somalis see Ethiopia as their second home?? Is that why there are hundreds of thousands somalis chilling in Addis??
You fuckers, being opportunist of our weakness, tried to invade Ethiopia in 1977 and was repelled, end of story!!!
We know what used to happen to Ethiopian refugees in Somalia, But Ethiopians are not savages even in the heat of war and ur fucking ass know it
And Yeah, art is universal especially when it comes to Knaan, I enjoy him!

@Kazza627 , listen, why is somalis go to refuge to ethiopia? because it's close and they can't afford to go to any other country far away, they don't only go to ethiopia, they go to kenya, and yemen, and djibouti but djibouti is a somali state so that does not count as refuge. and you talk abour 1977? before you talk read the history mate, ethiopia could not win against the somalis alone, thats why russia and cuba had to help, otherwise we would kill you all and if you read you'll know it.
shishisennin 1 year ago
you know that you would lose BIG if you diden't call for help after cuba and russia, we reached addis in just a few month...what would we do in just a few years? same thing happend in 1529, we conquered ALL of ethiopia until the portoguse came and helped your sorry baboon pig eating asses out, we killed your king, we destroyed your churches, we even destroyed Lake Hayq , Lalibela and the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion.
shishisennin 1 year ago
in 1977 we took jijiga and the rest of the ogaden and harar, dire dhawa, yangudi, bale mitz, awash, awasa, nazareth, and the next target was addis ababa, and that was when you relized that you had no chance at all, that was when you called the russians and the cubans for help because the americans switched side to somalia instead of ethiopia, they wanted to be on the winning side, since america and russia were enemies in the cold war, russia switched to ethiopia and helped them, so what, habash!

@shishisennin In 1977 Somalia had the best equiped army in Africa. You didn't build it, Soviet armed you. Ethiopia was in termoil. War from north with Arab and Egypt funded enemy. Sudan helping insurgets from west. Many generals killed by Mengistu. The last few money we sent to buy arms from America was taken. And they helped you invade Ethiopia. To claim the few Russia and Cubans who came with the new purchased weapons for maintainance won the war makes you look even more coward.

@shishisennin Ethiopian airforce with only 4 old migs destroyed your latest 28 migs. If you had a chance, could have bombed all our cities. We lost one mig in 5 days war you lost 24 of them.The war was to dismantel Ethiopia which stood for Africa and it is too bad you were instrument in this shameful act.
Eth. taught and trained Mandella, helped liberate Zimbabwe, mozambique etc.. It even helped you somalis liberate from colonials. U r Too stupid to get it. Colonializm has warped your mind

@Kazza627 What do you mean Somalis in Ethiopia? The largest province in Ethiopia is Ogadenia...Why can't you let those Somalis secede? Because of oil?..There is no such thing as Ethiopians because the vast majority of the people that in that land are held against their will. The largest tribe in Ethiopia are Oromos, the third largest tribe in Ethiopia is Somali...so how are Somalis in Ethiopia opportunistic? Why don't you let them secede? 1977 your country got aid from 5 nations. Communist scums

WRONG! ogaden is not ethiopia, if it was why would the somali people step up to fight for their lands? Ogaden has been somali for thousands of years, thats were the somali tradition came from, i am not from ogaden, and by the way, where did the name ogaden came from? huh? the proof is there! ogaden is the name of a somali clan, thats why the region is called ogaden, because that somali clan called ogaden lives there! ogaden was given to ethiopia by britain, read history you prick.
