Wow I had no idea that these guys were the ones singing the opening credits for coming to America. And then to top it off in 1939 A solomon linda actually wrote the original and sold his rights for a dollar! And then freaking disney makes millions off this mans song! So wrong anyway good music! To Peter...so wrong. Anyway good music!

I knew about these wonderful singers from listening to Paul Simons Music and Josh Groban This sound maybe new to allot of us but I am sure that African Tribes were singing these beautiful songs even before America's Independence. I find them very Spiritual and soothing. The sincerity, the truth, strength, and pureness of heart and soul can be felt in the delivery. Thank You "Ladysmith Black Mambazo".

Biography of person singing the opening Zulu line (the only part I really like):

Born May 20, 1964 in Apartheid-ridden Soweto and inspired by Nelson Mandela, 'Lebo M' spent years working hard in the slums and was exiled from South Africa in 1979, but returned 20 years later. He lives with his family in Johannesburg and Los Angeles.

Yeah, pretty fucking authentic...

wtf, wikipedia, copy and paste, job done. Good job slick. You got a song from a Disney film. It shows an animated Africa with American accents. What do you want? Again, authentic, keep it up

No, he's South African, which means he has a... come on you can do this... South African accent, yes well done! =)

And unless you are going to prove wiki wrong (I assume you can't)... why bring it up? Why does it matter? Why reply when someone else already answered me? Because you just wanted to stick your nose in. So F off. You want authentic? I went to see Amadou & Mariam in concert in the summer, a band I love. When's the last time you saw real African music?
Now shut up and enjoy the music
