  • to crookay123. I know your first statement was genuine, perhaps,like you said, just not well thought out. I also got your point and somehow agree with it. What I'm triyng to say is that if even a white italian woman like me,who has nothing to do with Africa can feel connected to it, why not a black american persons whose roots come from there? Sometimes culture creates a gap but "the soul and the blood" can build a bridge. Please don't take this like a lecture

Oh Wow are you going to be played. Thank you, Thank you so much. Seligor. xxx I wish Africa so much love and luck with their ongoing wishes and hard work in trying to put their wonderful country to rights.

  • mdr çà va deux secondes avec "l'Afrique berceau de l'humanité" et tout le tralala !

    Pour moi c'est de la musique noire africaine, c'est la musique des noirs africains point barre faut arrêter de parler de l'humanité dès qu'il s'agit d'Afrique.

    Bonne musique en tout cas, sur ce vive l'Afrique Noire, le continent de mes ancêtres.

  • this man is so sadly underrated in Senegal...he has the most wonderful music plus is an excellent actor (ex: tableau ferraille)...and his music vidoes are just out of this world. they are so creative...big up grand Iso~

    BLESSES

  • they are probably one of the happiest people in the world despite their continous problems

    the hardships just need to stop

  • I'm don't think so, they are not happiest people, it's not so easy to stop this problem, really not easy. Think you understand it too.

    Thank you for comment, with best wishes Natalie!

  • even though my country sucks; i kno more happy people there than i do know here in America

    for example few years back nigerians were named the happiest people in the world despite their coming off a civil war, and the high number of poeple livin in poverty...how do u explain that

    lets just hope africans try to help themselves to better their people and continent

  • Maybe you are right, and I think all people must help themselves, but it's really not to easy, I'm from little country Georgia (Caucasus) and here we also had and have so much problem, one year ago here was war, and many people die, die people who don't wanted war, i just want to say it's dirty polite war!

    I just wish peace!

    I really love so much Africa and African people, music and culture!

    Wish you all the best!

    Peace and Love my friend!

    Blesses

  • thanks u too

  • g trop chercher sur cet music et enfin c trouvé j'aime becoup la claaaasse

  • cette video me rapelle , des moments de douleur dans le football camerounais , un 23 juin a stade de france

  • Divin ! comme tout ce qu'il fait.

  • C'est trop remplis d'émotions : "Nous sommes les enfants d'Afrique"...

    Patoche "Bizougratuis"..Ayo ISOLO !
