  • Hey, thanks for the comments. Elders told me long ago, that we can't be racist. I'm an artist who just don't like it. Yeah there are sacrificies that are made, personal and cultural. I'm thinking about feeding my people(family) truth and spiritual strength. There were many artist before me who felt this way and they are legendary. You say it's not being racist. Dr. Welsing(a woman) says it's effemminization. Let's work to end that.

  • @mecorn56 Don't hate cuz' blacks aren't aknowledged in rock or classical music. Lets help fight racism in every border bro.

  • @mecorn56 Do you understand why African musicians aren't heard of by the western mass playing our music because alot of them don't want to continue the art inorder to feed their families.

    I came from a family who's main bread winner was stopped from working as musician by politicians and the only viable option was to move to EU recording with talented Europrean artists as subtstitude.

    Our race shouldn't dictate where our talent or heart lies. Bottom line is our artist aren't racists.

  • Hermoso!!! Music should not have bounders nor be only political, that's what makes it universal.... Blues, jazz, gospel, even rap belongs to humanity not to afroamerican!!! stop racisim please and learn to enjoy live with this beautifull video.

    Thanks for sahring

  • what kind of shit is this. African masters with this Irish hater. Please quite letting them torce the music of our people. It ain't the same. They are always attaching theirselves to our greatness. Blues, jazz, gospel, even rap. I rather hear them playing their on music.
