I feel so refreshed after seeing this. Dance ...this is where it all began... in Africa.

This dancing is amazing! I love it.

This beutiful afrika step of dancing will soon fade away giving way to indoctrination;why because this is voodoo gift....and dont mistake them for royal benin city gathering humming pride as culture.

beautiful. the movement reminds me of 'krumping'...like a slower version of it

[bioarcheology]

god I love this!!!!!!!!!!!

@ugomama : No similarities at all. Benin Republic is a country of it's own and so different from Bini an Edo State of Nigeria. The only people they share similarities with are the yorubas and they speak yoruba language in Benin Republic too the dance is similar to Bata dance of yoruba people of Nigeria.

This traditional speak and answer tradition in many african nations is where black people got their speak and answer traditions in the church to the rap battles, even seen in playing the dozens. The diaspora is returning to the land of our origins. I have my tickets.

Lovely voice

je suis de la Martinique, et comme le frère Haïtien, j'ai l'impression que ces paroles me sont familières!!! c'est étrange, même si je ne comprends pas les paroles. Et je suis persuadé que mes ancêtres parlaient fongbe, ewé ou même bambara.

I'm haitian and I dont understand the words,but the chants and dances are very similiar to when we chant and dance...."Africa bel moun"

[ugomama]

Is this Benin Republic the country or Binin, Edo state in Nigeria? The language sounds very similar to that of the Edo people of Nigeria...
