Welcome to Harlem ❤❤where next should I visit ❤
You should visit the appallo theater where a lot of famous actors actresses and musicians were made
Well come my darling daughter I’m in Massachusetts small town called Worcester welcome
Chicago 🤎🤎🤎
Brooklyn of course.
@@JeanMagombocoming soon ❤❤
The young lady you met, seems like such a nice person. Letting you feel so welcome.
As you toured the neighborhood, I saw that you took notice of the churches. I was hoping you would pass one particular church and you did. Just as you were pointing out the second church, the old man distracted you to tell you he would love to follow you. That second church is a Seventh-day Adventist Church, which I thought would be significant to you. It is probably the oldest Black SDA congregation in New York City. Enjoy your New York City journey Dee!
That's my church Dee passed Ephesus SDA Church and many more important places dee did mot acknowledge clearly dee is not a tourist they are very interested in and what's going on and what is important I'm the country they are visiting she is not she said she ia a traveler just passing thru not learning nuttin 😂😂😂😂😂
@Dee, you are truly blessed , God always made a way for you to meet good-hearted people. That lady is so humble . Blessing Dee ❤
Dee Harlem is wonderful. 7th Ave is wonderful, but Lenox Avenue in Harlem is where a lot if the central Harlem vibe is. There is SO much To Harlem and it is really huge and diverse. There are colleges, there, museums, 5 star restaurants, poets, musicians, scientists, doctors, lawyers, engineers, Artists of all kinds, etc. There's a rich, diverse culture there, always has been. I grew up there although I was born in Maryland. The layers of life there are incredible and it's the same way in Brooklyn. The Best boroughs of NYC is Harlem, thought it's a part of Manhattan, and Manhattan and Brooklyn. You have to live there to understand the unique vibe. It runs from 110th street to 155th street. Then there's the crosstowns from the west to the east side, riverside to the Hudson River. Go back and visit another to get a full experience.❤ And believe it or not, every block is different with its individual culture which blends as the whole of Harlem. The best places to eat in Harlem are along Lenox Avenue, up near convent avenue, specidic restaurrants, bistros and cafes where your food is cooked to order and you are served either at a table or take out.
Woow thanks sooo much ❤❤
Hey Dee ! You literally pass by where I live in Harlem. Right where you met that lady. And the guy you greeted ( Sekou) is a very good friend of mine From MALI
Ooh woow ❤❤
Dee she is so sweet. Glad you met such a sweet soul.
❤❤❤❤
You are amazing Dee. Keep winning 🥇
Thank you! You too!
Really knowledgeable woman you met from Harlem!!! Right energy!!!
No doubt! The best energy
Wow she's such a sweet lady good energy Dee tnks for showing us Harlem.
Thanks for watching
@@dawntrenchfield7920 I Dawn hey you must be my cousin because of that surname you have
no matter what anyone says- DEE is doing what DEE desires. She knows what she can and can not achieve, be proud of her confidence, shes giving everyone content and journey that one will never experience in thier lifetime. Keep it up DEE, let nothing/no one stop you!
True
As an African American, I feel the same about the village content, I am fascinated by the simplicity and serenity of the village, definitely a bucket list trip for me 😊; it’s also interesting to see someone from the village experiencing the modern western world while allowing her fellow villagers a glimpse into modern culture.
Indeed, Dee is doing what she's desires to do in her own unique ways, and we Jamaicans love her and proud of our black sister, big up you nice clean self and be safe 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🙏🙏👍🏽
@@ellacopeland5475 And that makes her content unique
that first lady you met she was really nice, yes lik you said i wish the world was like that, wud be beautiful
Marcus Garvey & Malcom X are two memorable icons in Harlem’s history and their influence on the Black culture!!!
Malcolm X 's birth name was Malcolm Little. His Muslim name was El - Hajj Malik el - Shabazz, hence the name of the market. He was an African - American revolutionary, Muslim Minister and Human Rights Activist who was a prominent figure doing the Civil Rights Movement in America. Like Nation of Islam followers, he considered his family name to be from white slaveholders so he changed it to 'X.' He was assassinated on February 21, 1965 while delivering a lecture in Washington Heights, New York.
@@susiejakes3019 I wish she was interested enough to learn that
Yardy Explorer , I see you discover the famous Harlem ,big up ,nuff love WITH JAH LOVE AND PROTECTION
You are very good in what you are doing, keep it up Dee! Welcome to America!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿❤️🙌🏾
Thank you so much!!
Told you NY is hustle and Bustle but Dee I know you love Jamaician food but you need to at least try the local black food . Many Southerners has moved to NY and opened restaurants. When she asked do you like Southern Food that is soul food cooked by African Americans, we eat peas and rice called Hopping Johns, some of these recipes are handed down from our African ancetors, you would love it. And all ghettos are not the same in each country. And I can tell that the woman was not originally from NY she was so nice, and friendly, not to say all NY people are mean, and she is telling you the same thing we are be safe. and I promise she said it for a reason.
125th street is a major transportation artery and cultural hub that's been a center of African American culture since the early 20th century. You were on the West end the actual ghetto is East end. You are right to obey the pedesterian laws, do not walk against the traffic lights, you can be fined for jay walking if caught, smart girl. FYI/ East Harlem, also known as Spanish Harlem, is rich with Puerto Rican history and popular eateries. West Harlem where you were offers quiet, tree-lined streets and picturesque parks. East Harlem has been the center for immigrants. East Harlem is both ghetto and affluent. All of Harlem is not ghetto, you were not in the ghetto.
The first nice lady said she lives in Harlem 10 years but is born American.
I really enjoyed the intelligent and friendly conversation with that lady with short hair. And she’s so beautiful.
Hey baby girl peace ✌🏾 and blessings I give all your videos a like stay safe beautiful don't change 🌹💯
One love ❤❤❤
That was very nice of her to stop and talk to you.
Yes she's the best ❤
@@DeeMwango Next you should ride the cheap Chinese bus from New York to Philadelphia. Which the 2nd largest city on the East Coast. GOOGLE Philadelphia is not an expensive city. After Philly ride the cheap Chinese bus to Washington DC the USA capitol. GOOGLE Washington DC.
Hey dee I went all the way to Jamaica to try and meet you and now you are my backyard. I'm in Connecticut about an hour and 20 minutes away from Harlem . Be safe out there Harlem is not as bad as it used to be, it's pretty safe now. Take care.
@@hotarugracequeen7349😂😂😂
No but I have a classic 69 Chevy stingray, Hardly Davidson fat boy motorcycle. And a 2019 Audi Q7.
The Staten Island Ferry is one of the only free forms of public transportation in New York City, which is reason alone to celebrate it-but it also happens to be the closest you'll get to the Statue of Liberty without paying a dime.
Thanks soo much ❤❤
Dee, welcome to NYC. Finally, you are so close. I wish I could link up and show you around Brooklyn. May God guide you and you just enjoy the place.
Hit me up on my Instagram please @deemwangoofficial
Enjoy your time, Dee. Be well and be safe. May God continue to bless you. 😊
Thank you, I will
Thanks for taking me through the streets of Halem. Very nice, Dee
My pleasure 😊
My husband was born in the South, raised in Harlem and now we’re living in Brooklyn. The Dutch first settled in Harlem but during the civil rights movement a lot of blacks from the south migrated there. Southern food is a must when you’re in Harlem. The best Jamaican food is in Brooklyn, the Simpson’s Restaurant in particular downtown Brooklyn. Girl you have to come to Brooklyn.
Thank you again Dee for taking me along with you on your journeys. I do enjoy watching your videos. ❤
My stomping grounds Dee! I grew up in that neighborhood across the street from the African Market in the King Towers buildings that stretch from 115st to 112st . Love it! I actually lived in all of the boroughs except for Staten Island and worked in every borough.
Some other interesting points of NYC you might be interested in seeing and showing are Ground Zero, 911 Memorial, African Burial Grounds, Wall Street, The Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, in Brooklyn there is Prospect Park, Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn Academy of Music, and Coney Island Amusement Park- my favorite place to go as a kid.
Thanks soo much for the recommendations ❤
Brooklyn bridge is an attraction as well
At Brooklyn bridge you can get suviniors to buy
I'm going to NY next month and you have just given me a list of places to visit.
D-Mwango in Harlem heading towards 125th St the Blk CONSCIENCE of Harlem, the home of LEGENDS. Big Up Ya Self D. I am watching you right now queen 🇳🇬🇯🇲👍🏾
I work in Harlem! Diverse people that say hello and are very friendly. Washington Heights is also a beautiful neighborhood in Manhattan
She was in the West totally different in the East.
How mushy are you thou🙆🏿♂️🙆🏿♂️
when I was watching you in Kenya, there were no ads coming up but here in South Africa there are sooo many ads and I'm not skipping a single ad 💯. road to 500K. let's support our girl Dee Mwango.
Harlem, full of black culture. The Harlem Renaissance. Ruby Dee, Ossie Davis, boxer Joe Louis, writers Zora Neal Hurston, Langston Hughes. Home of the Apollo theater, many many more.
@princeanerhall8676.True. Harry Belafonte, Sidney Poitier lived in Harlem during their early days. I think the house they lived in is still a tourist site. Cotton club still a tourist attraction. ❤
Susta, it's time to educate yourself so that as you travel, you can also teach.
I feel just want to say she has been there Harlem is so full of culture and dwe walked passed ALL of it even my SDA Church so sad😢😢😢
@@silviarose1237.
Welcome to New York! Visit the Schomburg Museum in Harlem 135th Street and Lenox. It is a museum of Black Culture. Sylvia's restaurant is also a place where foreigners like to go.
Very nice video Dee the place looks nice and that lady was so nice my aunt use to live in Harlem close to the park enjoy my sister up up I enjoyed watching
Thanks so much
Happy to see that you're in New York, Dee. Stay safe
Thank you ❤
Dee this girl is God sent oh my 1 of a kind she is lovely Luke u
❤
Great to see you in New York finally. The first young lady you met was so refreshing. Enjoy and soak up the different cultures New York is a real melting pot .😍😎😀😊
❤
Dee, try to listen more when people are speaking. We need to hear their perspectives as well as yours. Don't cut them off. Wait until they are done talking unless you have to cut them off. Love you my sister. ❤❤
Hey Dee. God will take care of you. That lady in the picture could pass for your Sister. Have a blast but don’t underrate the place. Vigilance and common sense is the key. No matter how street smart you are,people know you are a Tourist traveling the world honey. God is in the vessel, let him steer it. Have lots of fun.
I hope she sees n understand this comment... I'm scared of how she's asking everyone for directions.. When traveling alone trust no one suspect all.ppl are so scetchy but all in all I want her to enjoy.. When I'm in America I stay very close to Harlem...
@@annakiyarowe6445 Some people in New York give you the wrong directions. I use my maps now. Someone deliberately put me on the wrong train and I ended up in a completely different direction. It was deliberately done.
@@annakiyarowe6445 we keep moving no fear in me sorry ❤❤❤
Dee 35:55 he said, "Hey beautiful! Omg, you got it going on."
There's no doubting your true love for Jamaica. Your first choice of food you asked for was rice & peas and plantains and you wanted her to revisit Jamaica. Big up yourself..
Harlem is uptown Manhattan. You’re still in Manhattan. NYC has different sections and it’s very diverse!! Enjoy the different cultures in NYC!!
Good morning Dee, I am glad that you have reach morning. I usually advise people especially Vloggers who are travelling outside of their country to do a little research on the countries that they are visiting so that they can have an idea of what to expect.
Dee, do not charge for anything in the US it is considered working with working papers. They will revoke your visa. Do not let anyone tell you to charge for meet and greet. My husband is a custom officer. He knows best.
Dee that is a great piece of information right there pls take note my empress ❤❤
Hi dee watching u from trinidad
My old stomping grounds. I am glad they have a market dedicated to African shopping. What a great addition to see in Harlem. Can’t wait to back for a visit
Very good advice ❤
@sheilaochaka4082 true bt I'm not planning to have the greet and meet this time round maybe next time I visit the U.S
❤️🙏🏿🌷👸☝🏾😍👍🏿💪🏿👏🏾👏🏾💯🇯🇲🤜🏽🤛🏽🇺🇲💯 God bless always big up. One love to you. Harlem is great.
Great Vlog Dee. Remember Harlem is Manhattan. You are staying in Midtown Manhattan and Harlem is Uptown Manhattan. Not sure what Market you were looking for, but they don't have a market per say in Harlem like you find in Jamaica, but you can get most things in the Supermarket or Sunday markets in certain parts of Manhattan that you have to research in advance, All the best. Glad you found the African Market wasn't aware of it, so I learned something. Don't forget to visit the Bronx and Mount Vernon, which is in the North Suburbs of Manhattan where they have a large Caribbean population that will love to meet you. And of course, Brooklyn, which is South of Manhattan and only a few subway stops away. Pls stay safe.
Thanks for the info!
I'm glad you met this young lady...do hope you allow her to show Harlem to you. She's a real Harlemite!
She was amazing ❤
love the energy Dee ….will be in New York this weekend to do some vlog hope we are lucky enough to see you ❤❤❤ bless up
Blessings everyone. Empress D to the world may God bless and protect you through your journeys in Jesus name I pray.
Can't wait until you comes to Ottawa Canada.🇨🇦🇯🇲🎉
God bless and thanks soo much ❤❤
@@DeeMwango You're so welcome empress 🥰💚💛🖤
I lived in New York for many years and I worshiped in Harlem I know the church. Harlem is a nice place great people and lots of historical buildings. Lots of stores. 127 was my old stamping grounds. New York is a great State you find everything there.
❤❤
Thanks, Diana, I've been to Harlem in the 80th and 90th it was never looked that clean and safe. Thanks to the city of New york . I'm living just north of New York, across from the state of New York. If not this time next. Visit Niagara falls ,one of the seven wonders of the world .the best time to visit is in the summer. Have fun and enjoy a slice of north America.
HELLO MY FRIEND D GOD PROMISE NEVER TO LEAVE NOR FORSAKE HIS PEOPLE GO GIRL

@@amo9579 ❤️ I did the same
That was an amazing Deeflix ❤❤❤ loved it all from the nice people till the market . Haarlem is so great 👍👍👍 😍🌼💗🌹 Love Dee
Yes it was! One love ❤️
@@DeeMwango One love ❤
Dee, great vlog.Harlem is beautiful and a great item you bought with a quote from the great Malcom X.
Harlem is quiet now compare in those day. You have to go to125th Street to get the vibes. That is why where you located at is slow.
Be safe Dee! 🇺🇸 Americans are not open to random people walking up speaking and vlogging! It’s Complicated! When you get a chance look how many cameras are around on the streets!
Stay away from 139 and Lennox 😂
I hope you make it to 125th Street.
You was right there and you went to the African market.
❤❤❤
@DeeMwango, 125th in Harlem is where you will find people of all nationalities and cultural backgrounds. Whenever I visit Harlem from the Caribbean, that is the street in Harlem I goes to for shopping.
Blessings Dee welcome to Harlem
You can’t tell anything by pictures of food on the windows. You have to go inside sometimes they will be a full buffet of all types of food, even if a sign only looks like sandwiches.
Alright good tip
Good morning enjoy your trip along Harlem street I been to New York so many times never get to do Harlem on foot or the Apollo just drive through so thanks for the Video wishing you continued success and blessing
Thankyou Dee for sharing New YorkBeautiful content.....May God Bless You !! 🙏
Thanks soo much
Dre DO NOT go walking around the Bronx like you did in Harlem. Just have the driver drive you around. Tell him to take ypu to City Island and The Botanical Gardens
You really taking us places, African woman👌💪
Hi Dee keep enjoying the USA,make sure you visit the statue of Liberty and ground zero,ride the trains also just keep safe .God guide and protect you.🙏
Great content from HARLEM EMPRESS DEE
Blessing Blessing Beautiful dee African princess 👸 Jamaican Empress 👸 ♥️ you in bronx terminal marker my dear ♥️
Watching you from kakuma refugee camp in Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
I'm living in Brooklyn and haven't been to Harlem in almost ten years.
People in the states are not open and friendly only in Harlem. I live 15 minutes away from Harlem
Just act like you live here no one will bother you. Did you get to shop, Burlington coat factory is where you will find better deals, better than marshals lol. And now that it’s July they will have end of summer sales going on soon. Enjoy 🤗
😮
Prosperousnatasha: Stop making stories. Where did you get that from? Please, give me a break.
@@shokolokobankoshi3707 wtf are you talking about? who are you do I even know you chupesss
Dee ,who God blessed no one can stop, they can try but it won't come true.❤❤
Welcome to the USA Dee and make sure you visit Texas and Los Angeles ( West Coast)
DAT is it big up Dee yesterday link up was 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dee, before you go to New York City again, please do some research. There are dozens of places to visit and experience. I think that is something you don't seem to do. I noticed you passed a bike share. A lot of islands and countries don't have bike shares. You could have stopped and explained how it works. Maybe a quick visit inside the church for us to see the architecture, would be interesting. You have a wide audience. You need to stop limiting yourself. Big city blogging should be very educational.
Yes, that's true. Not everybody wants to see the grit and grime of life over and over, nor see another ghetto in another place. Good idea for her to seek out the variety that an environment/place offers. In other words, give us a balanced view.
@DeeMwango----xx go to Central Park. It's an iconic spot, and you may see a variety of people, characters, and things there.
G'day Dee. Your hair is just fine. You will pay an arm and a leg fir your hair to be done in NY. Waugh a while when yiu get out into the suburbs👍🏾
Love the beautiful woman was so gracious and classy; a great representative of Harlem. So much culture and history in this city, very insulting to call it a ghetto and not to know the illustrious history. If you weren’t such a legend in your own mind, you might have more supporters to show you around 😅
@deemwango 1st #harlem tour & you got #malcolmX vibes 🎉❤ random, but energy don't lie ✊️💪 b1 #fba
❤❤❤
No one is paying you any attention. Which is what you thrive on, we New Yorkers are stars in our own right. No one cares, to pump you up and call you empress, they keep walking
God will always protect u my girl u are v loved
Ameen ❤❤
@Sistah Dee : Calabash is a Fruit the skin is very thick the content of the fruit has a stink smell when green. When dried it is gourd used for water, Music Instruments and containers. This fruit might be considered in the Pumpkin family but not known to be edible at all. It is usually green in color when not ripe.
Loved the video, Dee!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Morning Dee jamaican from Connecticut a great fans of you I love you to Mt heart
Dee I don’t want to miss your Bronx visit ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Soon ❤❤
@@DeeMwango whatever you do just be safe young lady work on your own time ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Not sure why they would warn you not to go to Harlem?! Maybe they're thinking of the Harlem of the 60s n 70s. The prices of Condos and Brownstones in Harlem are ridiculously high and the demographic of the residents consist mostly of a completely diverse nationalities and mostly career folks. The narrative really needs to change
True times and ppl change
😂👏🇺🇸💯 YES if it had not been for the 60s and 70s you wouldn't be here today enjoying the glory what's the problem Martin Luther King and all the civil workers they did all the work so just sit back and enjoy 😉💯💰💳🪙 easy come right 👍 and then we have something to say enjoy your glory in the fact that we as black Americans are people have paid the way for you let's be grateful and thankful much love my darling❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dee he said "You got it going on" Its Black American slang meaning you're a person who's good looking, successful, accomplished and all that. Im really enjoying your Harlem vlog..stay safe and have fun.
Thanks soo much ❤❤
A lot's of African in HARLEM WELCOME TO NYC DEE
Hi Dee it's wonderful having a good time in Harlem❤
Dee, am happy to see that you're exploring Harlem, in the interim of things no one can warn you during your travels, you're a lion very fierce, God protect you always.
Thank you so much!
That was a genuine sista Dee, interesting, wonderful and informative conversation.
Welcome to Harlem the black mecca of NYC!
I like your determination.All the best gal.
Dee so nice this video. And thanks for going to the African market because it reminded me to go buy some South African bracelets. Also, thanks for going to the restaurant. I've walked by many times but never went in. Now I will. Beautiful content ❤
Great video. Proud of you.
Thank you!
Love that you came to NY I wish I knew you so I could have shown you around NY. Stay safe and blessed.
Enjoy yourself Dee this America
Dee i hope you friend that girl that was a whole vibe between you and that mama
Hi Dee MWANGO, thanks for taking us around Harlem, it's clean and beautiful 🥰
