[mzimkhulunyeka]

Southern Afrika is a region. There's no country like that. South Afrika is a country. One country. The music of South Africa is not the music of Southern Africa. This is Zimbabwean music. Zimbabweans are proud of their music and justifiably so. South Afrikans are proud of their music too and don't like it when it's presented as regional.

[kiliawta]

africans great dancers

Apologies Sir; It's spelled Mellencamp. I've been listening this many years. I live in Hamilton, Ohio. Everything you sing is True.

[612franklin]

A shading; talk to the Elders. They are the wagon, we are the horses. What's in the wagon?

[612franklin]

Real Talent Here. Never been out of the US, but the first place I want to visit is Africa, the home of humanity. I like the idea of incorporating traditional instruments. The reason for the Jamaican flag is that, sadly, so few people, especially where I'm from, know anything about other cultures, but everyone knows Bob Marley. God Bless Zimbabwe. Brother, you are on to it. !Play!

[superTripl]

Who put the Jamaican Flag there.. What the F***k..???

[kofiata]

@Rabat28A What is this huge fuss about fatness? health, the slim get sick and die equally as the fat, beauty? natural, if you born beautiful, it shows whether u`re fat or slim, of course 2 much of everything is bad, anorexia and bulemia is all results of this prejudice agianst fatness, do we realize media is brainwashing again?

[kingofmantova]

[funnyactin]

is it really that serious?

[GTXEXFILES]

In the olden days, people asked this question, can anything good come from Nazareth? Many were sceptical, but later the answer was YES..when they saw Jesus and what he could do. Could anything good come from Africa??????........YES..YEEEE­S..You can see for yourself as is in this video! hahahahaha

[misterdeeeep]

this video is awesome!!!

love love love

[Rabat28A]

Ugly and fat women

[preacain]

Thanks for this music my friend Coirpeach *****

[gabsgobygab555]

love the song :D :)

africa, i can't wait to go home...

[elorax0]

I'm African, but i think cultural dancing is not what we will give to the world or eit belive indeed. Western world was not built by God, nor by coward people. The same problem of differences of what we have today back home in Africa was here in the past . Religion, International and community appeal for humanitaran aid are not they solution for our problems. WE ARE THE SOLUTION FOR OUR PROBLEM, NOBODY WAS BORN WITH CULTURES, WE ADOPT THEM, WE CAN LIVE WITHOUT THEM!!

[machalpachal]

it s not true.We have cultures in our soul and we can do anything without it and it s good like this.African cultural dancing is the best I ve ever seen and cultural dancing and music is the most interesting thing you can find if you want to know something about others cultures.

[machalpachal]

You adopt culture were you were born and it s yours for all your life.your culture is the solution of the cultures that other people implant in your country and if you don t practice them you have the problem that you will be like other cultures and it s bad for africa that need be accepted for what it is and be strong for the influences that think they know what africa is.

[muvis5]

that's where we always stuck,when we trying to avoid our cultures,even in europe they have cultures ,i'm in Uk and i have seen maby cultures which is different than ours but they have lived with it since then ,do you think we can live without it,what do you think the social life would be?we have to live with it as long as we live.

[estorpai]

You are not African but a brained washed lost cow.

[vikingwind]

This video for some strange reason soothes my soul.....hope it does the same for you...have a nice day...

[mchigubu]

Truly Zimbabwean Culture! Excellent!

[bellemskey]

Oh this is so beautiful..... The track sounds like one of those outstanding classics of Oliver Tuku..... Lovely...

[LadyLibraNMore]

Absolutely beautiful!

[YagereLij]

rasdashen1- hey man you got -6 in red below ? I remember Jeffery Dahmer got -5

your comment is removed now, what the hell did you write ? Society hates you man!

[lastimehere]

man oh man. as an african american i think it's crazy the way you guys talk about each other. we are all africans. we may look a little different, dance a little different, our cultures may be a little different but damnit!! i regard all of you as my brothers and sisters. stop the racist bullshit.

[gabsgobygab555]

lastimehere, same here brother same here i'm a white south african girl and let me say to me your words made me smile, thank you you made my day :)

[jigaapple23]

gabsgobygab555, same here girl l´m black south(ern) African, your words-l like it.

[AdAnthony1]

@lastimehere I agree its so sad how much hate we have toward each other.

To many people are seeing Beyonce ect of what it is to be black. I feel ashamed when other African people insult each other......

[WinterFrresh]

its ok but  too much shacking

[yazmin0012]

i'm doing a project at skoo and i need traditional music from africa south of the sahara. this could work couldn't it? it's sooo relaxing. i also have a children of uganda tour 2006 cd could i use that?? thanx

[Queenpammz]

?? yo number

[amethyst48]

One last thing, the other women in the traditional dress, I enjoy watching them.

[amethyst48]

Somethin else, I happen to love Culture Spears,  the Mogwana Dance Troupe and a number of other groups that dance and sing. I love the music he sings here, just not the dancing. Ad for your info, I do not particularly care for a lot of American dancing either. For your info , also, come to an American high school or middle school and you will see the girls dance much like these girls, so there mr "I know America " better than you lol. Now bug off and let me enjoy the music without the dancing.

[cannoir]

I think the Mogwana have a much more elaborated choreography and a better traditional music, plus the girls are really fine.Serious I am not feeling the Hohodza, you don't have to be Zim to appreciate it. those girls are too curvy they just of energy. they look like they are avoiding fire.We need better troups with higher standards.

[toendepim]

true, true you don't have to be zim to appreciate it...but you would probably appreciate it more if you're zim.

[Dangerdoom68]

toendepim:

This is why all Afro African "black" people of West sub-Saharan slave kin ancestry should migrate back to Africa....so they can finally learn their TRUE Indigenous African "black" language, culture, religion, cuisine, etc.......Agreed?.....Right?

[amethyst48]

Didn't say I knew it all, but I have studied Zulu culture and history for many uears. One of my advisors was friend of Gatsha Buthelezi and I studied with this advisor for 3 years, so I do know some. As for the dancing, I just said I did not like it, I did not say it was crap or anything. I prefer different styles of dancing , it was just an observance., don't get all bent out of shape. I never said I know Zululand more than anyone either fool. I said I know the difference not everything.

[nipplepuppets]

sweet & lovely

[trugoodtrubtru]

just want to reply the stupid old american who thinks she knows it all , lol , this group is from Zimbabwe & they dance just the way we dance at home so dont comment on what u dont know lol,this is for Amethyst48; so dont talk as i f u kno w Zulu land mo than all of us lol!!!!

[ndzoboyi]

They are not from Zululand, i am my self from South African, speaking both Zulu and xhosa, i think that they are from Zimbambwe, i do not know.

[amethyst48]

I listen to music from all over the world and really enjoy this video. The dancers do not do a lot for it though, they dance like a lot of the middle school girls I teach and not as well as some. Especially the heavier girl in the bright pink, she seems confused a few times and appears to not know the dance. As for the fool that thought they were Zulu girls, I am an old white American and know they are Zulu. Look up some Zulu dances and you will see the difference.
