[SuperBaracouda]

[MerrittJeff1970]

OMG at the end they are so annoyed. Love it! So amazing

[MerrittJeff1970]

This is remarkable on all possible fronts

[krisbvas01]

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!!! That was wonderful! Exquisite Talent!!! This video made me applause at the end, without even being aware of it!

[SyvetheShairks]

Good stuff, Maynard...

[MasqueLeNuit]

I couldn't help but smile while watching this. Not sure why, but it doesn't matter. Loved it. Thank you for sharing.

[abbee108]

Absolutely beautiful. They are graceful and so intelligent and exact in their performance, refined and joyful. I love it.

[tinacombie]

black people are ugly

[CashOnDeliveryPayUp]

@tinacombie So sad. I bet you hurt so bad when you look in the mirror! Only an ugly miserable person would say such broad and pointless statement. Their are so many colors of "black" people. And all are beautiful. Just like you find different shades of "white" people. All of which are beautiful. I am black. My grandmother is white and she is the most wonderful and loving person I know. My parents are black, Indian and White. I bet you tan weekly to be darker too. Go figure.You suck!

[lillyslinda1]

@tinacombie You are such a lame person, I feel sorry for you, sad really sad.

[paleface8]

Give those boys some white skin and throw some cowboys hats on dem fellers and you got real good hootnanny. Singing was my fav.

[Koenane]

The stepping of the feet, sounds even more nice on the wooden stage...This is great.

[SayWhaaaItsDeedee]

ooooohhh so this is why most black americans are such good dancers..i get it now ahahahaha

this was really nice! :D i LOVED the dancing!

[MsMadame]

Beautiful!



[ifebossert]

I love this video...wish I knew what tribe I belonged to, so that I could do the right dances. However, I'm just doing west african dances for now. I have always loved south african singing and now I love the dancing...pretty hot looking guys too:)

[philiptwood]

Those guys almost look like they're tap dancing a little bit.

[TUAMIGO3X]

ES UNA HERMOSA DANZA, INSPIRA ALEGRIA  Y ENERGIA.. AUNQUE NO COMPRENDO LAS LETRAS... SIGIASN ADELANTE FELICITACIONES..DESDE LIMA PERU

[Drchuchomario]

Es la danza más hermosa que he visto. They seem birds dancing and the song seems an espiritual chant. Each I see it I find new artistic and amazing gestures. The dancers-birds reflect many human emotions. It is the best dance-chanting I´ve saw

[ghettokhanacademy]

I wish people in america danced like this. i would be a better dancer.

[princessjoy007]

look at all that beautiful brown <3

[princessjoy007]

i love how their feet keep the feet... it makes me want to dance now.. good stuff

[TheEyesHaveItYes]

This is music for the soul to see peoples expressions and happiness and harmonizing saying something wonderfully human that reaches across race and culture and continents to speak a word of happiness and joy. I wish the englissh translation were posted, it would be great to know what they are singing (celebrating?).

[Shejn88]

Africans are untouchable in their music! Anyone who has a heart will admit it ! Sorry for my english!

[raymond25ish]

That was pretty cool.

[kerry1053]

no drugs-alcohol-fog-bright lights-long hair flyingall over-no electric guitars-drums..pure simple people pure simple music

[Jswiss95]

No ice

[jthusany]

Only uneducated people say the wrong things about what they are seeing. People who are educated, white, black etc. would never say things like this. This is amazing, this is from the hand of God. Children respond with their feeling, their emotion. Men of wisdom use their mind and not let their fear, anger or jealousy guide the action.

[tarnell4003]

@jthusany Well said

[twinky666666]

no tits :( they got modern

[SaharaCaxapa]

wow!!!!super!

[atatarh]

[mate6mty]

[josegranadoscr]

the first dancer is gay



[MrRaydioray]

alright, now that i looked at it let me scroll down and find those ignorant racist nigger comments left by booty scratch n sniff crackers.

[chloebelledogeno]

It's nice to see the cultural dances over the world. 'Love this video.

[Ella7194]

[jamaalandlatoria]

[aparham48]

[mohanrudra]

[DivineDimplez]

[caytlinluv98]

Mann that seems like a hard work out but but nice dance

[mystrol3]

Kanye going back to his roots,thanks for keeping it real Nigga!

[yoko59lee]

Beautiful and unique

the problem with south and America they don't want to keep their dance and folklore

and look to the States to imitate

never Africans

[RoxaneRichie]

El BAILE ES UN LENGUAJE, ME ENCANTA LOS RITMOS DE CADA CULTURA, AMO LA MUSICA, Y ES DISFRUTABLE CADA RITMO, CADA NOTA. BAILAR OTROS RITMOS ES PARTICIPAR DE SUS TRADICIONES, SUMERGIRSE EN LO PROFUNDO DE LAS RAICES DE CADA PUEBLO

[RagingStormX]

Does anyone know what exactly they are saying and care to translate it to English?

[WagonWheelRanchTexas]

Beautiful and spellbinding. The way true music and dance should be.

[carotmytop]

this makes me think of tap dance

[Mrkhaledsa]

WWWWWWWWWW

[84Rbk]

Just like Usher :))

[tsitsiteca]

Beautiful singing and dancing

[trueredexe]

I've noticed, every race here has a specific colour template, skin, hair, eyes.. And comes from some place that, in most case, still have tribes. You know, roots. But I can think of one that doesn't. One race that thinks they are better than ever -one else, but don't have any roots that can be traced back very far... Can you guess?

[pedazodatmosfera]

@trueredexe It´s hard to guess: they are too many who could fit in your description. Be carefull with the race concept: it´s not about being black, yellow or white, but to be respectfull with other peoples and traditions (even the ones in the middle of yellow, black and white)

[velveteyes79]

the ones in the middle are the originals, and the black and white are the extremes.. :)

[pedazodatmosfera]

@velveteyes79 I don´t know, sometimes they behave like being in the extremes; what I´d like for the people is to stop pointing at the colour of a person´s skin and to get along and learn from each other. If I could have a time machine I could know if you are wrong or right; in the meanwhile, we have Nat Geo :)

[markieOD]

My fav ppart was 2:15 to 2:25

[safetypinwhore]

The singing was so beautiful and the dances are always original. Also the girls are soo pretty and they all look so happy. Beautifully done.

[busisiweist]

just love the way you display your art

[anisuthideyakoindu]

suddenly I mention how meaningful these dances are! they are heavenly inspired!

wonderful I like it so much

thank you for this lovely singing also!

[soranB55]

Very nice....Lovely. we kurds also dance but in a different way... 

[albundyhun]

wow nice girls

[sraew]

the only reason you could have to dislike this beautiful video is ignorance...

[machetes]

i enjoyed this very much

[sethdog1000]

where can I get a dancing indigenous person for my front lawn?

[nedeljko18]

Absolutely charming.

[kimberlyiosborne]

And you do not reincarnate either if you want evidence message me

[kimberlyiosborne]

There was a Jesus and for your information he rose again after three days and yes he is Jehova's son and I hope you realize that before it's to late.

[marilynphan]

Beautiful.

[dextergreen1921]

this is the result of those who reject GOD signs and revelations if you follow GOD laws you will enter heaven when you dont you return like this for another trial

[koletski21]

@dextergreen1921 You are really wacked out! Your really in the dark. You are delusional i can see that right where I'm sitting. Here let me give you something while you went there, JESUS CHRIST is the devil. NO ONE ever in the history of mankind was ever named JESUS CHRIST! Did you know that. There never was a J equivalent in the Hebrew language nor aramaic. IE ZEUS the greek sky god. God from German Gott- assyrian diety GAWD. Say Amen= Ammon Ra Egyptian diety. Put that in your pie and smoke it!

[boventso]

That is really beautiful, both the music and the dancing. It reminds me of Ladysmith Black Mambazo.

[Yansa71]

awesum... does anybody know if this was a religious dance? or what is its nature? beautiful. enchanting...!

[wolfman4u1]

What is with the train whistle ?

[azfender1]

Loved it...

[truejackson12]

Thiss Wass SWAGGGGG !! Likee I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Thiss Typee Of DANCE !! It'ss Sooo ORIGINAL ! =))

[metroeco]

Beautiful



[creolelady70]

would love to see some people doing dis in the club :P

[71soldier]

Dancing wont teacher ur brain how to think and act and invent it will be fun fir the time and ur fun time but go read a book

[JohanBomholt]

I'm a fat American ._.

[phattracs]

 Actually you Edomite European dogs are the monkey bestiality bastards.

[okuomose1]

Nice voice and nice skin. Thanks..

[daoudagoss]

Africa is the most original continent in the world. The first human life began there and this continent was built by African. It different from Europe or America where white people used african's blood to build their country and they are still using African's blood. Then, Our young men and women were brought to America as slaves. Imagine a continent without young people. Africa is still suffering from that event. Now, if you want to say that Africa is a poor continent, you know why it is. Thanks

[1leezie]

@daoudagoss Brings me to tears...

[Pilpoquet]

@daoudagoss Don't mean any offense, but please, go learn History. Yours, and then the others'. You should understand that Europe didn't need any african blood to build itself. Neither did the modern western large-scale economical slavery depleted Africa from its youth.

[Pilpoquet]

It is true however that this intense and new form of slavery encouraged tribal wars, the vainquished being sold. In some areas, it resulted in decades, if not centuries, of insecurity, thus social and economical regression. Some say that this discouraged the building of many towns, that were so easy preys for a raiding party, and that it may have thus prevented progresses in agriculture and craftmanship. Surely, it has made it easier for the Europeans to colonize these areas, later.

[fullfunk]

@daoudagoss agreed we stole everything from them and now dont even help them when they need help, our government are pricks just give them the knowledge to grow crops and structures not send food for a day only

[atiliocf]

@daoudagoss hahaha, ignorant you are talking about 400 year ago almost and....you are poor still.....well you are poor because YOU WANT TO BE POOR STUPID

[AmishWebmaster]

@daoudagoss I hate to bust your pride and ego, but according to the Bible Egypt had slaves and guess what race they are?

[melaninroyaty]

Egypt did not have slaves! The only place that mentions this is the Bible, and that is hardly a credible source. The Egyptians (Kemitans) were highly literate people who documented everything and yet you cannot find a record of this "so called" enslavement, anywhere! This is just a message propagated by the confused European to justify the enslavement of Africans. In fact, the very word slave comes from the europeans attempt to enslave the people of Slovakia!

[Zaubazubu]

grandes! viva el folklore

[1974Qball]

My 1# post got removed? free speach anyone? oh Africa right.....

[kmj2000]

@1974Qball Might want to learn what free speech is.

[Petrolianzoolbar]

Africa has some fine music..

[RellupNorth]

Everytime I see things like this it makes me proud and to see similarities between African Americans and the ones who escaped evils of the white man and gives me hope. I'm not racist I just can't believe how ignorant white people can be and these comments prove it. Truth is Africans have touched every single corner of the earth, from music to food and I wouldn't want to be any other ethnicity!

[Xaymaicana]

@RellupNorth same here!!! even with us caribbean folks. (i am half jamaican and half african american) when we take the time to compare AA, Caribbean/Afro.latin and African people you will find there is NO difference. We are one. We are connected at the hip through DNA and our love for music, dance and culture. Even there is a such thing as "coming back after death" I pray that God NEVER bring me back as anything BUT black!!! :)

[LolOfMyLife2012]

CAN WE PLEASE STOP TALKING ABOUT WWII!!!!!! THIS IS LOVELY MUSIC!!!!!!!

[Xaymaicana]

the REAL south africa!!! love it!!

[Brynechka]

Beautiful. Thank you.

[mariaravi9]

I love this! Thank you for posting!! I would love to visit South Africa one day, there's so much to learn!!! Greetings from Mexico!!!!!

[paternadavidlopez]

COMO PUEDE SER QUE SUBAN UN VIDEO DE CUATRO MONOS BAILONGOS Y ENCIMA DESCALZOS ME CAGO EN TO SUS MUERTOS HIJOS DE PUTAAAAAA

[malumalu108]

@paternadavidlopez TE CAGAS PORQUE TIENES CACA EN LA CABEZA Y PORQUE ERES UN GRANDÍSIMO IGNORANTE, POR LO MENOS ELLOS SON EVOLUCIONADOS EN COMPARACIÓN CON UN VÍPIDO COMO TÚ. ANORMAL SI NO TE GUSTA ESTO NO LO VEAS Y SIGUE LLENANDO TU CABEZA DE IDIOTESES.

[liviaazevedo22]

@paternadavidlopez fuck u racist... if u dont like them why did you watch this video?

[honda3gold]

WHAT i am a, i am a, i am a, NIGERIEN

[mantra3000]

Holy fuck they sound good!

[Geldregen365]

I can dance like a crocodile ... have you ever seen a crocodile dancing?

[Geldregen365]

67 people can`t dance ...

[keerthi321]

Africans are so naturally rhythmic...

[Pilpoquet]

@keerthi321 As if a human group could be "naturally" (genetically ?) more or less able than an other...

I know you didn't meant evil, but pay attention for such assertions, please.

[Cristoviolanalgonas1]

@keerthi321

Kinda like saying EUROPEANS are naturally criminals likes those savage disgusting grotesque animals called George Washington and Andrew Jackson.

[mdeborah827]

I love this. Thanks for posting this video. I saw the remix too and enjoyed that too but glad to see the original dance and hear the rhythm.  Oh, smiley215215, I viewed this from America!

[smiley215215]

nice!! sad to sat that people of america is still nursing on their momma breast ,does anyone know the way home?anyone?

[OaklandAthletics53]

yes yes yes

[baruter89]

now i understand where the hiphop and rnb born :)

[poppyray00]

i love dance like this

[sunpattle]

@Jackaypal00za so why the hell did you even watch it if you felt that way dummy

[sultana861]

:Simple girl who knows shes right about most things- you say you only see monkeys jumping and clapping- I truly felt quiet hurt because I was dancing and I am no monkey-I am just african, and unfortunately that might not count much(or anything at all) for you- so I will just say this-At one time,l thought white was closer to God, now I know one truth, and it has set me free- one day you might also come out of the deep dark forest you are in.. and you will be overwhelmed at how wrong you are.

[RealPersianPrince]

@sultana861 ignore these racist people you are above them :) In the words of the Persian Poet Saadi:

Human beings are members of a whole,

In creation of one essence and soul.

If one member is afflicted with pain,

Other members uneasy will remain.

If you've no sympathy for human pain,

The name of human you cannot retain!

BTW thanks for the video it was really cool :-)

[sultana861]

@RealPersianPrince : RealPersianPrince-mersi...that is thank you right? ..hahaha-just looked it up. that is a beautiful poem and quiet sobering. I am also gonna try and do better at sympathy for human pain...You are kind and I thank you. Yes the video is great I agree with you. Khodafez.

[Spikestrip55]

@sultana861 Well said!

[Edjepinto]

@sultana861 So mean you were dancing in this video? Congratulations, I really loved it!

[AshasJourney]

@sultana861 amen sistah

[sultana861]

@AshasJourney : Thanks AshasJourney...

[kmj2000]

@sultana861 Beautiful answer. I feel sorry for these people.

[sultana861]

@kmj2000 : Thank you, I feel sorry too but there's some hope-look at the world-not everyone has it easy or hard-just the music of life, and when we feel the need to lash out at others who cant peel off their own skin....its sad.. but thank you. God bless.

[robertoeleei]

@sultana861 well said.god bless you all.

[sultana861]

@robertoeleei : Thank you. I guess its not easy for anyone, white or black,middle eastern or anyone else-so we can only do the best we can and be the best we can be.. God bless you too. Thank you.

[bgriffin25408]

@sultana861 God bless you and forgive the world for being so blind. Also, know that not everyone is as ignorant. You and your people are beautiful and your culture is rich. At least you know where you come from, many of our people do not understand what is going on to our detriment. Stay safe and be blessed.

[sultana861]

@bgriffin25408 : Thank you bgriffin25408. You are kind, its hard being always at the end of the rod but nature has its cause and way..and God loves us all. Stay safe and thanks for being kind.

[Kouglizia]

Very impressive and lovely! Many thanks!

[sieragrace]

These rhythms are love!

[agimcomas]

Looks like tap dancing.

[JadoreNaturality92]

@agimcomas tap did come from african dance.

[MsSlipe]

lok closely you will see some of the moves for beyond run the world video you can clearly see were she got the moves from.

[ndirima]

shakila should came and take the steps from them and say that she made it as she did in waka waka song from cameroun.

[01jshann]

Beautiful singing

[ciupenhauer]

the raw tribal essence of the african people always made me feel like we still have some magic in our times.

[MrKoyote90]

I like this kind of music. When I hear it I just want to dance. The dance looks like fun

[paolaura08]

question, what's that on their ankles? I've seen it here in Mexico during indigenous style dances...

[Angeline540]

Wow!

[SylvieLaCamer]

Beautiful and gorgeous Africa, the land of the Gods!

[ThePempin]

de los mejores videos de youtube!!!!

[Mecia2604]

Love this!! Bout what are the saying?

[SmithGurl1208]

I don't want to come off as sounding racist... but is it just me or do most Africans have beautiful, harmoious voices???

[kakou21karen]

@SmithGurl1208 We do and don't need for that; It's natural! thanks though

[sultana861]

@SmithGurl1208 : true true-dont worry you dont sound racist//

[XxMusicManiacAnnixX]

1:19 arsch frisst hose xD

[XxMusicManiacAnnixX]

hahahaa süß , sweet :)

[2flytubaguy]

They have beautiful voices and when they do these things they really show there culture to the fullest

[pedazodatmosfera]

At 3:49 I thought the man on the left put his hand on the partner´s butt. By the way, great dancers all of them

[olhosqve]

I'd like to know what are they sing about. Could it be an animal or a hunt?

[AMotherofFour]

I love this video. What a great performance. Is the second guy chewing gum? lol

[1974Qball]

Topless or it didn't happen.

[spongypat1]

@1974Qball If they were topless in this video, everyone would have been concentrating on their breasts more than the dance and people would have commented on how Africans are always running around with their tits outside.
