  • Don't you ever find it odd, that 9 out of 10 Ethiopians, will call us that same old bullshit ' We are the same ', but on the Eritreans side, only 1 out of 10 will say the same. The thing, is that Ethiopians have been dancing and eating chaat, they let something sleep away from them so easily, that is the chance to be a people like Eritreans, closely tied, defend their nation, love one another, never sellout, never fight over religion, and ethnic division. So, not the Ethiopians want to be us.

  • there is no country with the name habesha, by the way habesh means abesinya which the old name of ethiopia, so eritreans let us not fool ourselves coz we are not ethiopians!

  • straight FLOP. There will only be one Aaliyah , sorry boo boo

  • look at the beginning of the video carefully, you will notice some weird stuff (budha or illuminat). or somebody explain it. scarrryyyy

  • Eritrean Tegadelti didn't fight and died, so we can call our selves Habesha.. they fought, so we can call ourselves ERITREAN.. so fuck all of you Ethiopians and your "We are all the same" babble ! I'm a proud ERITREAN

  • WTF every single day people argue about how Eritrea and Ethiopia are "same people". Ethiopians get used it. Eritrea independence country.

  • The term Habesha (Ge'ez ሐበሻ ḥabaśā, Amh. hābešā, Tgn., ḥābešā; sometimes Amh. Abesha, አበሻ `ābešā; Arabic. al-ḥabašah الحبشة) refers to a South Semitic-speaking group of people whose cultural, linguistic, and in certain cases, ancestral origins trace back to the tribes of the Axumite (Habasha) and the Da'amat kingdom.

One blood. stFu nigga

  • Eritrean or Ethiopian we are all ONE people. Niggashit is a Disgusting terms does not matter if you are black or white. How would an Asian feel if someone called them chink or Jap not cool

  • Eri and Ethio family, you need to chill and calm down before responding. You might have just missed the point in support of your own then you attack without comprehension. *Nobody* should disrespect Eris and Ethios born on foreign lands...then treat them as lowly. But then again, don't throw your heritage to the dogs either.

  • Wow! Winta is an Ethiopian. No way she could be from other country. She is cute and every cute belongs to Ethiopia. Because beauty is our trade mark!!

    Go Winta !! See you in Addis Ababa!!

  • She's actually Eritrean

  • I had this song a few years ago. It's pretty good actually. Mad beat and the girl sings well.

  • Comment removed

  • 1. salty much?

    2. she's eritrean. also, your logic about wanting music to be limited to some geographic space is wild funny. you should reconsider that.

  • This is a good song! Go Winta Eri shukor!!!

  • one love to Ethiopia and Eritrea!!!

  • If Eritreans and Ethiopians are adapting their culture to reflect "niggerized" behaviors, why blame African Americans?  Wouldn't it be Eritrean and Ethiopian culture since they adapted their own expressions and behaviors to this?? who exactly held a gun to them to force them to emulate foolishness?

  • shut ur fckin mouth i happen to be eritrean we act the same as everyone else racist bitch do u even now what she does reply back if u no dumb ass this is to hwiseman

  • one thing i absolutley hate is when im with my mum and she bumps into people she knows in the street, and they'd talk to her in Tigrinya, but then to me they'd speak all broken english. Its like, yea i might be british but i can also speak my language fluently thank you!

    Eritrean natives are just as ignorant as foreign eritreans like ERIGiggna.

    But thank goodness im not ignorant. so there.

    Also, i think every eritrean loves eritrea but doesn't anyone find faults with the president?

  • no

    viva isaias idiot!

  • ur obviously one of the ignorants

  • winta, i thanks God that we got u...to say that we r eritrean..xxx luv ya

  • Eritrea needs people like winta cos if u compare ethiopian and eritrean songs, u all eritrean are gonna be ashamed that u r eritrean. eritrea needs people like winta bcos she is the only one who sings hip hop songs. luv her

  • you are funny! you are eritrean and you like crappy black hip hop music. I'm black american and I like eritrean music, movies and injera. you must be young american born eritrean. I visited asmara 3 months ago and cried when it was time to leave. I regretted coming back to the U.S. I wish Eritreans didn't try to be so american. Most young eritreans don't even speak tigrinya anymore. That's not good!!!

  • No....Im Eritrean and im proud that im Full ERITREAN and i love my Culture. what im sayn is that people in eritrean need to do different things...and it's always same things and it needs change....

  • I understand you. Its good for people to maintain their culture, while being a part of modern society. My girl is Eritrean and most of my friends are as well. It seems like whenever I go to Eritrean party these days, more and more, the younger Eritreanstry to act and dress like hoochie mamas or gangsta thugs. I understand younger Eris wanting to be modern, BUT UNDERSTAND that America's decline is tied directly too its embracing BAD, HIGHLY SEXUALIZED MUSIC & MUSIC VIDEOS!

  • THANK YOU! at least somebody understands!who is not even Eritrean!don`t listen to this baby Boy!the young Eritreans in Europe (mostly) like their cultre/music like the way it it! this american guy (ERIGiggna) doesn`t know what he is talking about!

    I Love my Country and i don`t want it to change to much like the Western countries...we don`t need another hamsa santim!

  • Mer-ha-ba! lol, I understand perfectly. I'm trying to escape the "niggashit behaviors" so prevelant here in America by hanging out among older Eritreans. But now, I'm finding that the younger Eritreans are starting to engage in the same behavior I'm running from in American Culture. I guess my next step is will be to move to Asmara or Keren. lol But everytime I say that, my Lil' Sabina keeps saying, "Ooowahhh! alecha loco (crazy)!" I guess she's been "spoiled" by the American lifestyle now.

  • Yes, i see that at my cousin`s,some of them are living in america and they are soooo different than us, they don`t understand anything in Tigrinia!They became Americans!what a shame...But nice to see that you love Eritrea, there is sooo much to see!and maybe there will come a better Time for our country, that we can go back Home!I whish it won`t take too long :)

  • Ever notice that lots of educated and affluent (even common folks...just those with a job and a future in mind) African Americans are also running far away from the "niggashit behaviors?" Don't place all people in 1 box. It's insulting. There is ghetto culture...doesn't mean all American Blacks act this way.

  • We can never say "all" with respect to any generalization. That's a no-brainer.

  • Apparently "no-brainers" are all that obvious to many folks.

  • Apparently "no-brainers" aren't all that obvious to many folks...typo

  • thats dumb by the way....i am eritrean and i am proud of being eritrean....why would eritrea want someone who sings hip hop when we have the richest culture ever....and this goes to "SpeakDaReal27" you rock baby....

  • ohhhh man i love this song this girl is so cute and i love her.......

  • Me Eri,gotta admit uall ethiopian got some nice ass & pussy,muh

  • excuse me! no good motherfucker!!!!!!!!!

  • Real good!!! Ladyluv

  • dagmawit25 you pussy im from eritrea and im proud of it eritrea and ethiopian are the same and if you have any problem with it you have a problem with me too if you have any problem with eritrea you have a BIG problem with me ok

    if you did'nt accept it go and will be a chinese

  • ya im with u about bro and sis but some of ethopians like dagmawit is starting read her coments

  • hey, hey, i'm ethiopian but i have a lot of eritrean friends..and yeah...they are from a different country but we are all brothers and sisters. this hatred is unecessary and cruel come to america and everyone treats black people the same so get over it. WE ARE THE SAMEEEEEEEEEE

  • my friend wars are not easy to get over....families and friends are lost at the hands of the people you call the SAME, just shedding some perspective on your coment

  • but if we never get over it the war will never stop; we should be the new generation and leave the hatred behind us; we have all lost equally

  • I agree with you "marthapuff2" i was the victim of the war and i got displaced from ethiopia....but the thing is, we gotta stop hating because if we dont then the war wont..

  • say our culture is very similar for better terms. cause it confuses ppl if you say we are the same. each country has its own unique beauty just as beautiful as the similarities they have. its good to respect both similarities and differences don't u think?

  • ur amazing Winta habibty

  • hey guys stop that war on here ........ethopians u know how many ppl dead to bring this country dont keep saying eritrea is ethopia i dont care if it was a part of ethopia put what i now that eritreans brought it with many blood soo shut up.........

  • She is so beautiful and sweet here

  • Winta Eritrean shikorina.

  • Really cute girl, but she needs to get better producers. This song and her singing style is just a little off at times

  • first of all .. she's my cousin , she's eritrean , ppl don't get it twisted ! Eritrea this and Eritrea that, don't hate ! If eritrea is so bad and we were a part of ethiopia then it means that ethiopia is as bad as eritrea, lol .. stop bullshitin

  • Now,

    What the hell is wrong with you ppl?

    we have a great song, a beautiful singer and all you can get from this is racial shit!

    yes racists, you are fuckin racist!

    more then 150K ppl died.

    People, brothers, sister, mothers made of flesh, bones and blood. People with dreams.

    We are supposed to be the seeds of the future. Strong of the Ancestors' wisdom!

    but instead, you're nothing better then a broken glass in the desert.

    I'm Eritrean, Ethiopian, American, Italian, Norwegian, French...FREE!!!

  • wat she talk about men...shhit

  • keep it up winta. ERITREA FOR EVER

  • I LOVE ETHIOPIAN GIRLS!!

  • she is eritrean get it right

  • Ok I see what you mean. No hard feelings. One Abesha Love. Chaw.

  • yeah they are different country like Gonder and Gojam are different countries......what is wrong with you? Do you think two people like Meles and Afewerki have the power to undo history???? Just because they say Gonder and Gojam are different it doesn't mean they are. I'm sorry but I don't see the difference betwenn Tigray people and Eriterian people...all the same shit.

  • dagmawit, Eritrea is free country. plz forget eritrea, cuz dont wanna be part of ethiopia. Eritrea 4 Eritreans

  • So why you are always in eri pages???Plz leave us alone we are fed up of all you.

  • even worse. She is nobody then.

    "Eriterean" is not a real identity. Most people in the world don't even know where it is located, no history, everything that you think is yours is Ethiopian (language, culture, history, even your writing is amharic)....it is described as the "land that used to be part of ethiopia...then they start to understand what the hell you are talking about."

  • her voice is wonderful!

  • Winta looks so pretty in this video

  • what the fuck is shadowdaex about...yo ethiopian ppl did not just set and let anything happen...do u know how many blood was lost on that war to keep eritrea u stupid baster...

  • that is my cousin :D

  • is she norwegian eritrean??

  • yes she is eritrean norwegian

  • hey girl go on bet

  • love this song i think i know her

  • the song is okkk but we as people dont need to b following this sort of paths. as Ethiopians we r destined for much bigger things. y r we so eager to fall into the trap white people set mainly for black americans, am not on about racism or anything like that, but our country dont need more youths acting up thinking they r black americans. at a time when even the black americans r trying to get out of this system y r we so attracted to it soo much? the best thing to b is urself, stop pretending!!

  • BIG AMEN TO THAT. We got a culture we should be super proud of, I can't stand it when some Ethiopians try to act all African American.

  • come on man im ethiopian i watched the video and enjoyed it very much she's really tallented but u man lol u just have to bring the ethiopia Eritrea stuff geez man i dunno how ppl these dayz think just get over it man i just dont get the fuckin difference the only thing that keeps us appart is the fuckin goverment and a simple border we are the same god dammin people why cant u people sink that to your dammin brains ethiopia=Eritrea=ethiopia

  • Freakfreakcome you really dont know what your talkin bout. First of all Eritrea and Ethiopians are nothing alike. We struggled for independence so many lives were poured into this. You say it was bad govt that caused heart ache for eritrea, then thats a load of bs. Even if ethio ppl. were against it, it makes no difference cause they mostly sat around and let it happen, and trust me doing nothing is just as bad as letting the ethio govt. fight against eri.

  • Shadowdaex, are you serious? You actually have the nerve to state Ethiopians did not fight for independence? I guess you must have ripped the pages of history when the Italians ruled your country with an iron fist for ________ yrs...do your homework and fill in the blanks. Get real dude. Let me know if you need add'l lessons.

  • Sometimes I think itàs a good thing to answer to such things....but then I realize that I can't fight against ppl that want to be ignorant. Implying Ethiopians are different from Eritreans just because they haven't fought for independence is almost as bad as saying the Ethiopians wanted Communism and dergue and went looking for it....I mean seriously...I arrest my case...I'll get back to discussing real politics with ppl that have half a brain. Good luck with life.

  • nice song

  • She is soo beautiful!

  • To tesfayones: We Eritrean don't see no diferent betwen Italian and Ethiopien. Bothe of them the same shit,just to destroyd and to colonaiz.May be the Italian one is better than the ethio,because they hade a brain to work,the Ethio amhara/adgi had brain to kill to bombard all over Eritrea and to did all the evel works.

    After 30 yers war the Eritrean army destroyed the ethio army!

    We Eritrean we are not etiopiens and we don't want to be ethiopian never never.

    Go and red some history books....

  • As a half Eritrean and half Ethiopian, I say you're just a load of bullshit. We have everything save language in common and I've lived in both countries and can say that with confidence. All this difference propaganda is nothing but political brainwashing. it's quite sad. Read the history books...BOTH countries have suffered because of bad governments...it has nothing to do with the people. Get and education!

  • i agree with freakyfreakcome. we r all da same. shadowdaex i hope u aint 1 ov ma cousin.....dont bang on me......but u r to shaebia...not eritrean, shaebia.......n im eritrean by da way........n ma dad was tegadalay.......so dont be tryin 2 talk shit bout me...u r anyways.....i dont give a shit

  • my cousing bossschlat's dad Esaac was a tegadaly!

    but even tho we are cousins, we have different views on Eritrean Govt. i Love him he doesn't!

    but we are all Eritrean and i still love him cause he is my cousin!

    BTW! im comin to ur house on yosiefs B-day!

  • lol.....te hell u aint...nah im fuki wit u...fosho ill see u then

  • u must b outa ur mind!! do u kno who ras Alula is? Eriterea is his creation n he is tigrey, u kno what that makes u? agame, stop tryna deny who u r!! u just got niggerites, am guessing u dont kno what niggerites is neither, b4 u hurt ur brain tryna figure it out.. its a big chip on ur shoulder that u cant get rid off, it mostly effects people with slave like qualities and mentality.. move on man stop putting soo much energy into hating ET and work for the development of ur country!

  • genuine question here. Before Eritrea was colonized by the Italians was the country part of Ethiopia? if not was it ever prior to Italians? If not then which country ruled over Eritrea?

  • why did you find this the best place to ask your genuine question?

  • Good question. I really have been searching the web and didn't find anything and I figured most of the comments are coming from Eritreans so who better to ask my question! So can you answer my question or anyone else who is eritrean.
