Imzad-The tuareg's lyre violin. It has the same sound as the Cretan lyre violin in Greece.

It sounds to you as an electric guitar because the sound of the video is bad.

@Fallacia83

Why do you call it "tuareg's lyre violin"? It's not a lyre and different people in Africa all have their own. It's just as Mande or Sonrai as it is Tuareg.

@lionzion22

My brother everything a Songhai Mandinka or Peulh does is "Touareg" for these foreigners. It's getting crazy !!

[wyldfiyah]

@Saheli9

exactly!! I cant understand it, everything is tuareg to these ppl!!!. even "Takamba" that is 100% SONGHAI is called Tuareg! when will it all end ?

These ppl cant tell the difference between Touaregs, Peulhs, Tebous, sarakole, Hausa, Moor, it's really crazy! calling everyone in the Sahel "Touareg"!LOL!!

[iArsalan]

@wyldfiyah You have to understand. When a European like Fallacia sees dark-skinned Africans doing something beautiful, their cultural training directs them to attribute it to the lightest skinned people they can find. Nevermind that many of the Touareg are as dark as any Songhai of Fula, just so long as they are not all dark.

It's their racial sickness, don't let it infect you and continue to love yourself and your culture, and maybe they will grow to love themselves without hating others.

i saw people doing the takamba dance in a special on tv about timbuktu . they called it the dance of kings but i saw many people doing this dance . the dancers say you feel the rhythm in the stomach and then the chest arms and legs until the entire body feels the rhythm . it looks very graceful
