I’m a Nigerian hearing Thandiswa for the first time. Her music stirs and comforts the soul at the same time. Just magical. And these musicians are beyond. I want to cry this is so good. Sending love to South Africa.
Meaning of the songs. for English speakers 1.Nizalwa Ngobani? (who gave birth to you?) have you forgotten that you are born of warriors? 2.Ingoma (The Song) its a love song, praising her lover that is like that good song that plays through the night, and she doesn't care what anyone says. 3.Children of the soil. self explanatory 4.Abenguni. ( Abenguni is subgroup of Bantu including me) the song speaks of not being alone but being a part of the whole Abenguni. i love it 5.Lahl'umlenze (throw the leg 🤪/ means Dance) its a celebration song about black pride. Ningandi jaji i tried lol.
I’m Black American. First time hearing this artist. Her voice, her style, her creativity is simply enchanting. Thank you Tiny Desk for showcasing Amazing Talent 🥹
Check out The Soil, Samthing Soweto, obvious Miriam Makeba, Oliver Mtukudzi (Zimbabwe) and Siya Makuzeni. Noora Noor (Somali living in Norway) is excellent also (album: Soul Deep).
More than 90% of Black South Africans can speak and understand English but they choose to sing in their African languages. From Amapiano to Every genre. Embrace your culture the Ancestors are proud
The languages carries our spirit. Just peaking eg isiXhosa the sound of the cliques and is rythm in itself. South african indegenous languages carries a spiritual rythm n trans. Poetry Storytelling singing. An average south african has sung in school or church choir.
The Grammy is so complicated , it plays dirty, some good artists don't have even one but the Grammy doesn't own good music , as long an artist loves what he or she is doing , the Grammy is nothing , music cannot be determined by a Grammy , some artists are put down because they don't have a Grammy , artists should be left to fly without thinking about the Grammy ❤❤ let her fly high because we know she doesn't need a Grammy to be great❤❤❤❤
Hello there, I fully concur with you, but I stand to be corrected her first silo album, did win Kora Award, that is equivalent to Grammy. I never get tired of listening to her music.❤❤
I'm Irish and I just love good music...no matter where it's from. This is magic music to me, I love it. This lady is fantastic, and the musicians behind her are amazing. I would listen to this all day long. Thank you Tiny desk for another gem!
The first song (Nizalwa ngobani) It’s songs like these that make me proud of being an African, and of being black. Despite all the struggles & blatant racism that we’ve been through as black people, we are still surviving. We don’t even cry about it no more 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
I am from St. Lucia in the Caribbean and this music as had such a positive impact on me since viewing and discovering. An amazing artist .. happy I found her. I listen to her everyday now. More blessings and light to the South African people :)
She's looking very gorgeous but hay ikhulile intombi endala guess it's because haven't watched her in a long while but also hearing her age I understand
To the individual who is reading this please quit overthinking everything every day and night . Stop obsessing over your failures. Stop doubting yourself and seeing the greatness in everyone else but you. You are better than that. You deserve more. Start showing up differently to yourself. Believe in yourself. God wont ever hand you something you cant handle. You are a star in this world . may God Bless whoever sees this
Brown skin baby Checking in from the US, I don't know who my ancestors are but I know where my heart lives. I love you, all people's, languages, spiritualities, colors and nations of Mother Africa. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼 UNIFY
Why am I crying , it’s 7:34am South African time. I’m stuck in traffic going to work and this just made me appreciate my life more. We are all blessed in different ways , God makes no mistakes. Glory be to God and Long life to our ancestors. Never ever forget where we come from.
May the Lord bless you and keep you all your life Melissa! Keep Beholding Him and keep sharing His goodness to the world. Love from the Free state Bloemfontein 🇿🇦🕊️
@simphiwinkosindaba1036 yes I know exactly what the diaspora is, mme Thandiswa is a South African woman o dulang mo South Africa unless she has moved abroad in recent years and I am unaware.
That's exactly what happened to me. I was at my desk and the subtitles were on and I was able to understand what she was saying and it was so impact-full.. I felt deeply connect to my African spiritual roots and somehow something shifted in me..like a stronger urge to make my ancestors proud. I am a singer songwriter as well.💚💚💚 (Naomie 'Ngozi' Grandison")
@@naograndi1214ngozi means skin. Is that the name you were going for? Could you have meant nkosi? Which means king? But that is a man’s name, not a womans. But that’s in Bantu, in a west African language it might mean something else….
Really enjoyed this live rendition of it, despite the song not being a personal favourite. Did anyone notice how the guitarist gave it a bit of a Reggae riff?
I'm Nigerian, just hearing this amazing South African group for the first time and I really can't get enough of the great songs with so much African original flavours. Incredible Thandiswa!!! Incredible indeed!!! She reminds me of Mama Africa - Miriam Makeba, Yvonne Chaka Chaka etc. Thank you SA for giving us these great women. Africa is so blessed. Much love from Nigeria 🇳🇬. One Africa, one love❤👍💯
METROfm better do the right thing and give Thandiswa her lifetime achievement award NOW while she still BREATHES.... Siyabulela mntana womgquba usimele!!
1st song "nizilibele ukuba nizalwa ngobani" translates to, 'you have forgotten who bore you', you've forgotten your forefathers, you've forgotten you're born of heroes and brave men/women. 2nd song "uyingoma" translates to 'you're a song', a beautiful song, a song I can't get enough of, a song I play all night long.
The RUclips algorithm never disappoints!!!! We love this woman in Kenya 🇰🇪 From South Africa 🇿🇦 to the world 🌎 Bless you Thandiswa!!!!!! Forever talented ❤🎉
That song always brings tears to my eyes and motivates me. whenever ifeel like giving up she says "Nizilibele uba nizalwa ngobani"yoh guys this song so
South Africa is very rich in indigenous music that is yet to be showcased .. the popularity of Amapiano has led to us undermining how deep our pool of music go... Wish there can be More of this pls.

South african foke music, we call her style afro pop this side
African authentic, Xhosa in origin like Mama Meriam Makeba. Camagu Locqueen
Check out The Soil, Samthing Soweto, obvious Miriam Makeba, Oliver Mtukudzi (Zimbabwe) and Siya Makuzeni. Noora Noor (Somali living in Norway) is excellent also (album: Soul Deep).
There’s more where she came from
You should check out Sinphiwe Dana, Zahara, Siphokazi, Camagwini if you like the vibe of this music. All Xhosa soulful artists.
More than 90% of Black South Africans can speak and understand English but they choose to sing in their African languages. From Amapiano to Every genre. Embrace your culture the Ancestors are proud

If everyone here turned on their subtitles while listening to her sing you’d really be in tears
You're a star
That's exactly what happened to me. I was at my desk and the subtitles were on and I was able to understand what she was saying and it was so impact-full..
