I can't believe I'm just now seeing this for the first time.

Anyone know how I can get the compilation album?

[jahisus]

@chocokat303

This is Habinjah, if u need a Project Monkz Album. I can get it to u via email, at least for a token cos we aren't necessarily selling now. We preach the word and u can always have it but with a token from ur heart felt gratitude. Selah

[naaadjeley]

woow!!!!!!

[ConsciouslyCreate211]

I'm feeling these Bro. Gone and do it BIG then. This is what American Rappers should be spittin.

[2gunzG]

500 stars for this one!!

[Buttakrispy]

dis shit is serious....! BIGUP!

[Pyzot22]

This is a big tune.thanks to y'll for taking us back to our roots. Lol

[Piesis9]

As a black man sometimes I cant help laughing at some of our inanities.

So it's bad when the white man mistreats us but what when we mistreat each other. I just watched a video of the Liberian civil war and the horrible things done in that video were done to Liberians by fellow Liberians.

We need to get our shit together and stop blaming everyone else. Yes, they enslaved us 300 yrs or so ago, but what are we doing for ourselves NOW?

[BLACKWATCHWAR]

Again, posts like this one fails to consider the role of Europeans within all African conflicts. But certain people's addiction to western media makes accepting this impossible. Then witness the sad spectacle of "laughing" while our sisters and brothers get destroyed by our enemies that have convinced this African that he is the cause of the crimes he has suffered.

[Piesis9]

Yes, bro I'm laughing at comments like yours that failed to address my central point: when are we gonna take responsibility for our welfare?

"Addiction to western media." What are we doing to counter the evil of the so-called western media? Still wallowing in self-pity and blaming everyone else for our dire conditions rather than acknowledging that WE hold the key to our progress and welfare.

YOU can choose to be blind to our failings but I choose to believe that our future is up to us!

[martamariotto]

JLXD

[ghanagal7]

black power keep up the good works monkz waiting 2 see a new video frm u guys on youtube

[jahisus]

@ghanagal7

Prroject Monks needs a record label, we are finding it hard to break into the mainstream Ghanaian music industry with our revolutionary hip hop music. this music needs to be produced for the diaspora, so people can learn. I guess u know I am Habinjah, I seek to prepare a way for us, but which of our fans will help us break through

[ghanagal7]

if there ever was a devil in hell surely he could never be more horrible than the white man and second not only is africa the most corrupt continent on the planet but its also the only place whos people have been inslaved for 400 years never forget its because of us that america is what it is today its the only place on earth that has been colonialized as much also 3rd we dont have to start a revolution all we need to do is unite and stop allowing the foreigner to brain wash us

[ghanagal7]

look 21adub87 before u start talking get your facts strait u act like u dont know why there is so much corruption in africa u know why its because people like u come into africa u seperate one against the other u conquor and divide u brain wash us an make us hate one another 4 stupid reasons u sponsor us with the weapons to kill and while were fighting ur taking our natural resources second i wish every one were racist to the white man no were on earth has he gone and hasnt made war

[21ADUB87]

ghanagal7, You sound ridiculous saying it's our fault you kill each other, They supply weapons for the security of innocent people, You know quite well africa is not lead well by it's superiors, Africa has so much potential and yet it is disease ridden and starvation is a commonly used word there, Many charities from europe help you, Did you not see what ireland did for you? Bono and bob geldof organised the concert live aid and it raised millions,

[Piesis9]

"its because people like u come into africa u seperate one against the other" and as Africans we are so dumb we allow the white man to "seperate one against another." Who do we blame for that? The white man? We allowed, and still allow him, to use and divide us.

Why havent we stood up against the white man's attempt to divide us? hmmm I wonder why.?

[OhenmaaFan]

big up to Project Monkz for getting over 45,000 views...

peace,

Sista Ama

[21ADUB87]

Yawn! Start a revolution and you will die, Do you think you are gonna wipe us out? You must be smoking crack, You call us the racists when it's really you, You can't even unite you slaughter your own people, Africa is the most corrupt continent on the planet, FREE AFRICAN SLAVES OF TODAY

[blazinphazes]

If there is no revolution 1/3 of the earths population willl perish. I will revel in the fact you will be amongst them. Im white but does that really matter in the 4th and 5th dimensions?

[21ADUB87]

HAHAHAHAHAHA HAHA HAHA HAHA HAHA HAHA, White people Jews and asians would stand side by side and we would never perish, Look at the most powerful countries out of those, America, China, Russia, Britain, Israel, Japan, Australia, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, I reckon India would side with us aswell because of the way there decendents get treated in south africa

[jbmor06]

Well, 21AD I guess that leaves us with know one but GOD. I like those odds. I mean it's only fair since the chose the devil for your side. LOL

[21ADUB87]

God is my father, God chose my people to run the dynamics of this earth, If god was on your side slavery would never have happened, If God was on your side he would bring rain to africa and not HIV/AIDS and all other diseases that come from your continent, You think we are the devil! Let me tell you something if it wasn't for white you would be living in worse conditions today and you wouldn't have governments to sponge welfare checks from cause your lazy ass won't work.

[jbmor06]

OK 21 let me see if I'm following your logic. If evil happens to a people or person, God is on the side of the evil doer? Lets continue your logic... Because bad things happened to Jews and Jesus, God had no concerns for ether. Well, that makes since due to the fact Jews and Jesus where decindents from Africa. And we all know God hate Africans. You are a Funny Guy 21. LOL

[21ADUB87]

God doesn't hate africans, He punished you for enslaving jews for over a thousand years, He took away your knowledge of self and made your people slaves for what your ancestors did, Its called KARMA, ( What goes around comes around), Africa could be better if you elected politicians who are not corrupt and care about african society, Children are dying of starvation and i know these countries that are suffering most are because of your governments

[jbmor06]

21, even if this was true, imagine what you whites have coming to you. You all left the nonfertile cold rocks of Europe Raped and murdered the world and came up with the BS of manifest-destiny Then yall SOBs claimed to build the most powerful country in history When you lazy MF' ers did'nt pick up a rake. I feel for you Your ancestors where lazy thieves. God knows your lies and I do too The BLACK MAN built this country. you're on my ancestors tit. And U still sound more pissed off then me. LOL

[21ADUB87]

LOL several times, This murder rape and greed thing you talk about! My ancestors never committed these crimes, We built new york, boston and philadelphia, We were oppressed for 800 years by the british, 1845-48 we lost 2 million in the patato famine, Irish people never saw this wealth you talk about, My ancestors were sent in slave ship's around the british commonwealth

[jbmor06]

Then I guess that makes us brothers. Peace my brother.

[younyc09]

true!

[ghanagal7]

never again once a slave twice never ever jah will never let us down we still have a lot of work to do so much conflit in africa pls africa unite only africans can save africa and refuse to fight each other and refuse to accept guns to kill our brothers and sisters riiiiiiiiiiiiise africa they want us like this so that we can be busy fighting one another 4 petty reasons while they stieal our resourses

[ghanagal7]

wow we need to hear more stuff like this i never hear this kinda stuff on the radio all i hear about is money cars sex and clubbing go ghana am really impressed id luv to colaborate with u guys

[ricot2]

[zettebda]

[VINCYPOWA]

By the way, POWERFUL song and VIDEO...LOVE it.

[VINCYPOWA]

Free your MIND and SPIRIT of NON AFRICAN INFLUENCES and you will be on the RIGHT TRACK to CONSCIOUSNESS.

[VINCYPOWA]

LOL@ISLAM is PEACE

Which WORLD R you guys LIVING in?

ISLAM put more AFRICANS into SLAVERY than the EUROPEANS.

Even TODAY, AFRICANS are in SLAVERY, within AFRICA, courtesy of ISLAM. Ever heard of MAURITANIA ?

Every time FOREIGNERS, like ARABS n EUROPEANS, come into AFRICA, DESTRUCTION and the DEHUMANIZATION of AFRICANS have taken place.

It is time to get BACK to your ROOTS, AFRICAN SPIRITUALITY.

[youngkenya]

Some real hip pop with a one bigtym message, i am from Kenya personally...

[kwakubadu]

Dis Is What u call Ghana Hip Hop Mann

dese katss are fr reall

[extremelypolite]

The first thing a muslim should do after having made a sin is (he must free a slave)

and if there are no slaves, then he or she should do what's next!

this is how slavery vanaished!

so, Islam is behind the FREEDOM of all slaves around the whole word!

Islam is all about Peace!

the words (Islam, Salam) mean submission & Peace!

so,dear viewer,

stop the hate and stop being racist!

dont judge Islam and muslims,read about them!

[projectmonkz]

What's up. We Muslims from Ghana. Islam teaches lead us 2 be concious musicians. for real Islam is peace.

[jaidypee]

God will judge u whites who help in Send Million of Africans to Europe and America to be slaves...

[SucceedMascot]

@jaidypee God will not judge only whites, He will judge both whites and blacks who contributed to slavery.

Every race has displayed both evil and good. It all depends on the persons involved in which activity.

In the Eyes of both God and the devil, there is no color

[lmarr07]

HIP-HOP IS ALIVE

[surabaya82]

I'm Indonesian, South-East Asian.

I respect this song and these revolutionary brothers that dare too speak the truth to the dumb, def and blind in this White Men's World!

Between 1831-1872 the Dutch V.O.C (Netherlands) enslaved thousands of people from Ghana en shipped them from Fort Elmina too my country, Indonesia. They told the Ghanese slaves that they get "freedom" when they fought for the White Men against us. That's why nowadays still Ghanese people live in Indonesia.

One Love!

[projectmonkz]

True That Brother. Thanx

[shan2703]

i hope this will never happen again

[projectmonkz]

True that. Respect Brother.

[Amaru4ever]

I'm AA and Trinidadian, but I love this song.

I also love how Trini got mentioned in the movie. We're kinda small, so I was shocked.

Regardless great song w/ a powerful history.

[Smiileszz12]

[mija2006]

awesome!! nowadays we are all slaves to governments no matter what skin color you are. people need to rise and wake the f*** up!

[lifeiswhatumake]

It does matter the skin color. Only the Black skin is subjected to slavery these days. That is why we own very few businesses - not because we don't have the ideas but we don't have the same resources available to us ie. Money.

[melvinLIBGA]

africa wake up

black people Wake up

[hhniggagirl]

where can i ghanaian hip hop music to download?

i wanna this track so much!!!!!!!!

[burnellroques]

African servitude and Whites slavery were completely different. Many Africans would turn war captives into servants/slaves instead of killing them, and many poor Africans would offer themselves as servants/slaves to richer Africans. Many times those "slaves" would become "lower ranking" members of the families that they served, and were often treated quite well. So please stop confusing African servitude with European slavery. It's ignorant and irritating.

AFRICA HERE WE COME BLESSED!

[zenhill]

I was surprised a few years back when I learnt that Black Africans attacked and captured Black Africans from other tribes and sold them to the Europeans as slaves. Anyway that is in the past now, although there still is sex slavery occuring in various parts of the world. I hope all those who are presently engaged in slavery will be caught and punished.

[akikoappau]

Who is the slave master today? The caucasian no nolonger does the job, Black people are now the slave masters. They are not THINKING! Zimbabweans wanted their land back, Mugabe gave it to them, yet they'll get rid of him and bring back the British. Zimbabwe and the rest of AfRAka will be back into colonialism.

It's on & poppin' in NYC.. peace & love

[garageflower2002]

Black people kept and sold slaves in Africa aswell. Although a part of history not to be forgotton it can not be used as an exuse for problems occuring today. No one in this video has ever been a slave. Should people of the celtic race still be pissed off at Romans?

[spoilchild]

If they were still hated, Profiled & killed by them..?

yes..

[kwameagyeman]

i love dis track, well done.

[catluva2285]

We forget that we africans were also traitors. We sold some of our own in exchange for gin and mirrors.

[Doyaman]

WARNING!: French soldiers are killing BLACK PEOPLE. Type "GBAGBO" on search, and click on " FRENCH SOLDIERS SHOOTING CIVILIANS IN IVORY COAST". You will discover the racist and imperialistic attitude of French. But they have failed to take over the Ivorian people. Cote d'Ivoire is a beautiful and rich country that France wants to steal the resources. Cote d'Ivoire is a stable country that France wants to invade.

[ANCE15]

You cant rap for beans! Im ghanian by the way ! But i do like the lyrics

this is what we need, this song is off the chain, im feeling this tune. well done my dudes.

[Kalydosos]

This video is very moving!

[maddogg1234]

words of wisdom learn to forgive but dont forget to unit and be stronger

[sistaradical]

we need more positive videos and tunes like this instead of the bullshit the 50 cents of the world spit.

[Kalydosos]

fight1985 Africans invented the slave concept? In which century? which part of Africa did Africans invent slavery? one shred of evidence if you can manage it. You hairy barbarian!

Awesome video. It's always great to see socially conscious musicians talented enough to carry a message with their music.

[damie25]

agyaa backla or what ever u this augusco boy ... ebe so do ya thing son.

[dontfret]

I don't think it's proper any more to say "YOU justified..."

[fight1985]

LMFAO! Fucking cracks me up. Did you know that black slaves were traded to the US by black Africans? On top of that they were slaves before that. captured by other tribes or desendents of other tribes rased as slaves in Africa. The white man didnt invent the concept of slaves!The Africans did!

[bms4lifem3]

Do you know african slaves could buy themselves out of slavery in Africa and could lead productive and free lives in the same community as their captors?

Please don't give the illusion that slave treatment in America even equates to what occurred in Africa. What was done in America was evil to the nth degree. Not only did whites enslave a whole race of people but you justified it with cultural, instutional, and religous lies.

[johannine]

The only thing I have to say to you is you are an ass.

[faramade2]

Go into the nearest library and read history!, clearly you have no clue when it comes to black history. Forget about what they are teaching in your schools, do your own research, does serf ring a word to you?

[PROPaKNOWLEDGE]

message is fire. Dem don't know. I see you in california. 1

Release the chain an use them brain...god bless to each an every black woman and child.

I love this video, you're awesome CFP! Meeks

[ImperialPimp]

Great video and message! Cool track. I think it is right, people MUST learn the truth about the Slave "trade". But we must unite as one (black and white) otherwise we risk further segregation and nationalism. Trust me, there are PLENTY of white kids out here who support you and have your back!!!
