So...the blatant contradictions don't stand out to you?? Black people in Ghana sold their brothers and sisters to Europeans and got rich. Now 200 years later the government of Ghana is now making money off the descendants of American slavery by making the Door of No Return a tourist attraction. Slavery a tourist attraction? I think black americans should stay home and pump that $170 million into our own communities, instead of giving our wealth to a country that still allows several different forms of slavery to exist within its borders. Yes in Ghana, right now people give their children up to settle debts and as offerings to religious temples.
If u have to tell chicks this. We are already doomed. Thats like me telling niggaz to put on clothes before they leave the house. Some shit should just be common sense.
@@kameshab9928 , so, all Nigerians are scammers, right??? If that's true, so how come Nigerians are regarded as the most successful immigrants in America. You can Google it. But if a white man say the same thing to you, you will be the first to be screaming stereotype. Gross generalization!!!
As someone who just moved to Africa, to work with in construction and participate in a lot of the things going on here on the continent now I can say: I totally agree with Jidenna. We need to invest, we need to work on pan Africanism and connecting global African diasporas to the continent. This is the future.
People are surprised of how intellectually smart he is. But, they fail to realize he's a Stanford University graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Ritualistic Arts. He absolutely knows what he's talking about.
He spoke RAW FACTS!!! HE AIN'T JUST A CLASSIC MAN, HE IS VERY WISE, COMFORTABLE IN HIS GLOWING SKIN & SPREADING PURE LOVE... A KING GROWING IN THIS INTOXICATED WORLD...
@mynameis mynameis All Jidenna is to you, is a light skin dude? Jidenna is talent, intelligent, cultured, open-minded, and handsome. I don't think her attraction to Jidenna has anything to do with his skin tone.
I really have a lot of respect for the Africa diaspora. As a white guy, African music has had a massive influence on me. Not just the music, but dance too. I have also been to Africa and the few countries I've been to has given me great memories. The people and cultures are really intriguing and interesting. It is a tough pill to swallow to learn about Europe's (I'm British) role in slavery and the monstrocities that occurred during that period. I wish that more bigots and racists in my country could travel to Africa and visit the remnants of the colonial era and educate themselves about slavery.
Can you stand being with someone who is with someone else? Can you stand being in 3rd, 7th place? I get why he's doing it: to not be hurt but he even said that it did hurt. But he is also learning to suppress he's true feelings about it which is not healthy. Rather you smash and dash and be honest to the person about it. I don't get the point of being in a relationship that's not even a relationship.
Jidenna really has an amazing speaking voice, and seems to be able to pull off different accents & characters. I'd love to hear him do some voice acting.
I love how he explained what inspired him to get polynesian ink. I'm am original EAST PALO ALTO Polynesian and to hear that our polynesian community inspired him to get polynesian ink is so dope. I love it ❤

Haha... you must be kidding me. Africa is defo not the future. School your mind on current affairs. Africa is grossly indebted to China, and I am Namibian. China has colonised African countries like none of them has done before. Africa now is to China what Greece were to the EU/Germany a few year ago, defaulting 3 times and going bankrupt as many times for failing to repay on some of The shadiest deals ever made from one “family” to another. Africa is on the brink of historic collapse, exploitation from within, the past present and near future. See Kenya, see Namibia, See South Africa and so many others in the northern states that signed shady deals with the Chinese they sold the souls of the countries, self enrichment, political corruption and aids is rife. The future as much as I am a glass half full person... looks bleak. SouthAfrica is in turmoil waiting on a civil war, Like Damian Marley said... Africa must wake up !!!!
Africans are weird.. they sacrifice children and albinos, practice tribalism, eat raw carcasses, and leave a failed, majority-black continent to run off to majority-white nations. They even have to come on American platforms for recognition.
It actually baffles me how ignorant the breakfast club can be at times, it’s one thing to not understand something but jidenna is speaking his truth and experiences - it’s crazy the double standards men like envy and charla carry... jidenna is a very enlightened spirit.
This is one of the reasons why I stop watching it , that and how disrespectful they are to some people and to others they seemly argue over who goes first in who get to kiss ass first a la Jay- Z. I only tuning when someone says something important like Larenz Tate or this interview because the dude from the Home Team History channel mentioned it.
Lagos Nigeria too has a slave port guys.....please dont forget that. And what your dad said is absolutely Gospel......immigrants and blacks in diaspora SHOULD start investing in African and watch the continent become....as good if not better than ....the 'foreign' countries. And YES you all have a home on the continent if you ever feel unwanted else where. #maytheblessingsbe 🙏🏽
tolu planB We know there are Slave ports throughout the African continent. Ghana has been “the most” welcoming in policy and meaningful change. They are building on what the late President Nkrumah was trying to do and what he learned while living and studying at an Historically Black College and University (HBCU) in the United States for 10 years. I’m surprised that Nigeria and Ethiopia, especially Nigeria Is not leading the charge since they are more populated in the Diaspora and more ancestors were taken from Nigeria than Ghana. However, maybe what Ghana is doing other countries will follow with what they feel comfortable with. Ghana is definitely on a lot of people’s travel itinerary for the “Year of the Return”. December 2019 Accura, Ghana 🇬🇭🔥
Dude, are you serious?? You want us to remember that Nigeria also sold so many of its own people into slavery that Nigerians and white enslavers had to build slave ports?? U want to sale us on racial unity based on this historical betrayal? There is a reason why Africa was conquered and carved up like a chicken while all of Asia resisted colonization and is now just as rich and developed as european powers. And you want us to invest our on average $1000 of wealth into Africa while african governments and millionaires horde hundreds of millions and they choose to spend all that money in Europe and America. Africa could develop the continent all on its own if they concentrated on lifting the boat for all africans.
@@lesliejackson1507 Agreed because Africans love white ppl to death anyway...all the Africans I've been around at work refuse to hang around or identify with black Americans, Haitian, or Jamaicans...they hung with whites and white Hispanics. It was very odd to see, but I saw it over and over again and the irony is the whites would mock the Africans behind their backs because of their accents and call them stupid, meanwhile they smiled in their faces.
And Nigerians still wonder why everything goes to Ghana first?? They’re so culturally unaware and indifferent to issues, and always looking for how to profit off things that shouldn’t even involve money. Selfishness!
Also, he mentioned “purging darkness” people who want to stay in their animal state have that mindset. They are stuck in their primaries animal brain. It takes concious evolution of the mind.
grand theft ana what he meant was as a black man you are a member of a continent that has a population of 1.2B(more than the population of Europe or any Caucasian in planet earth) You are a part of a group that makes up almost 15% of the total global population. Therefore you are not a minority, you are a majority.or a person of colour. Population of people of color: Asia 4.463B Africa 1.2B South America: 446M Africa and Asia alone is 80% of total global population. Therefore you as a Blackman are not a minority The minority on planet earth are Caucasians and this is a fact. So stop seeing yourself as a minority because you’re NOT
Yes, and those countries' governments need to stop allowing the meddling from Western countries and China. Also, if the governments would stop being corrupt and taking the money for themselves and not reinvesting it into their people.
Only Africans can stop the other worlds from meddling... yet again, more than a quarter has been bought already so THEY are part of Africa now. Therefore, it’s their business to meddle at this point. Also, Africa is not united and even citizens within a country can’t move past the division created by the oppressor among their own people. Africa will only heal and progress if we go back to how our forefathers lived & governed. Use our African culture as a foundation and take what we need from the other world, just like THEY do.

Man, I hope y'all caught what he said about empowering each other throughout the African Diaspora. It'll will be our game changer.
Favorite part... Jidenna being genuinely happy about the kids playing chess. 😊
I been playing chess for 20 years. I taught over 500 kids chess under the age 18 For many years.
I would like to see an interview with common and Jidenna together I feel like it would be really thought provoking
Aw man! I feel like you’d have to pay tuition to sit in on that one!
@@DoctorOfLawOrSomething funny thing is Jidenna was actually a real school teacher before he became an artist
Yes I would like them in a room together 😉
Yes!! Speak it into the universe & it shall happen
Easymoney Online It definitely shows!
I'm 35 and I think this guy could sweet talk me into almost anything. I love an intelligent black man. Geesh!!!
Bullshit, the moment you black women meet a blk man like that. You think he's "gay, lame, white, and weird"

19:15 jidenna was looking at her hair like bish you crazy.
Neven Anthony not welfare queen!! 😂😂
Jidenna needs his own podcast. Please
It's always been cool to rep Africa, y'all just didn't know that.
Exactly what I was thinking!!
Big Facts! Couldn’t be more proud to rep my country! 🇩🇯🖤✊🏾
@@XsweetstarliteX
Then why this idiot using AA culture to get popping foh
Africans are weird.. they sacrifice children and albinos, practice tribalism, eat raw carcasses, and leave a failed, majority-black continent to run off to majority-white nations. They even have to come on American platforms for recognition.
& Is it their fault ??
It actually baffles me how ignorant the breakfast club can be at times, it’s one thing to not understand something but jidenna is speaking his truth and experiences - it’s crazy the double standards men like envy and charla carry... jidenna is a very enlightened spirit.
Yes, he [Jidenna] truly is enlightened. It was really annoying that Charlemagne kept interrupting with his ignorant (and non-funny) jokes
This is one of the reasons why I stop watching it , that and how disrespectful they are to some people and to others they seemly argue over who goes first in who get to kiss ass first a la Jay- Z. I only tuning when someone says something important like Larenz Tate or this interview because the dude from the Home Team History channel mentioned it.
Charla and Envy are just ignorant
American colorism
Charlamagne jealous
Angela needs to have Jidenna on lip service... I need to hear more about his polyamorous experience
"Disney got all these phallic symbols in the clouds..." Anyone catch that?
I missed that . Which time ?
I did. Disney is on some demonic pedo stuff frfr.
Old news
Unfortunately it's been that way for a long while my Sister. People are so caught up in the viewing fairytale don't see. No discernment.
Pray for the spirit of discernment Israel.
Jidenna look like a classic version of the rapper The Game and has the same voice as Common
I'm here for it... LOL
The Chief album was so underrated and slept on; anxious to hear this new album from him 👍🏽 Jidenna makes some real dope music
Jidenna dropped gems for 40 mins 💎
@@attainingknowledgeoftruth8348 He was sleeping with other women too tho. They were in a Polyamorous relationship.
Lagos Nigeria too has a slave port guys.....please dont forget that. And what your dad said is absolutely Gospel......immigrants and blacks in diaspora SHOULD start investing in African and watch the continent become....as good if not better than ....the 'foreign' countries. And YES you all have a home on the continent if you ever feel unwanted else where.
#maytheblessingsbe 🙏🏽
tolu planB We know there are Slave ports throughout the African continent. Ghana has been “the most” welcoming in policy and meaningful change. They are building on what the late President Nkrumah was trying to do and what he learned while living and studying at an Historically Black College and University (HBCU) in the United States for 10 years. I’m surprised that Nigeria and Ethiopia, especially Nigeria Is not leading the charge since they are more populated in the Diaspora and more ancestors were taken from Nigeria than Ghana. However, maybe what Ghana is doing other countries will follow with what they feel comfortable with. Ghana is definitely on a lot of people’s travel itinerary for the “Year of the Return”. December 2019 Accura, Ghana 🇬🇭🔥
Dude, are you serious?? You want us to remember that Nigeria also sold so many of its own people into slavery that Nigerians and white enslavers had to build slave ports?? U want to sale us on racial unity based on this historical betrayal? There is a reason why Africa was conquered and carved up like a chicken while all of Asia resisted colonization and is now just as rich and developed as european powers. And you want us to invest our on average $1000 of wealth into Africa while african governments and millionaires horde hundreds of millions and they choose to spend all that money in Europe and America. Africa could develop the continent all on its own if they concentrated on lifting the boat for all africans.
@@lesliejackson1507 Agreed because Africans love white ppl to death anyway...all the Africans I've been around at work refuse to hang around or identify with black Americans, Haitian, or Jamaicans...they hung with whites and white Hispanics. It was very odd to see, but I saw it over and over again and the irony is the whites would mock the Africans behind their backs because of their accents and call them stupid, meanwhile they smiled in their faces.
Leslie Jackson There was no such thing as Nigeria🥴 so you can’t really say Nigerian and white enslavers built slave ports
And Nigerians still wonder why everything goes to Ghana first?? They’re so culturally unaware and indifferent to issues, and always looking for how to profit off things that shouldn’t even involve money. Selfishness!
I just reached the ending of the interview, I have never seen a man genuinely look at the point of view of women. Wow I’m in love 😍
Speaking as an African.. I loved this interview.. he gets , loves and wants to spread the African culture..facts only!
Also, he mentioned “purging darkness” people who want to stay in their animal state have that mindset. They are stuck in their primaries animal brain. It takes concious evolution of the mind.
Yep we have the best weed in Africa.. ... SWAZILAND stand up
I didn't know he came by😭😭
Hook a sister up😁
I swear if Jidenna doesnt wanna sing anymore he can be a voice actor 😆
Jidenna has peaked my interest. The interview was amazing!
Lafonda Sto piqued *
Envy super quiet he doesn't want to ask any dumb questions 😂
He didn't know what to ask & probably didn't want to get chewed out educationally
Like charlamain! Duh!!! Why was he trying to deflect with such ignorance?!!
Plus, Envy seems to be doing well here with all of his businesses, so he’s probably not even interested in the “go back to” advice that’s being given.
Keisha he is absolutely pointless.... he thinks he's in Disneyland still
"None of us in this room are minorities" - Hope that ain't go over ya heads
Went over mine .. what did he mean?
grand theft ana what he meant was as a black man you are a member of a continent that has a population of 1.2B(more than the population of Europe or any Caucasian in planet earth) You are a part of a group that makes up almost 15% of the total global population. Therefore you are not a minority, you are a majority.or a person of colour.
Population of people of color:
Asia 4.463B
Africa 1.2B
South America: 446M
Africa and Asia alone is 80% of total global population. Therefore you as a Blackman are not a minority
The minority on planet earth are Caucasians and this is a fact. So stop seeing yourself as a minority because you’re NOT
Jidenna was so thoughtful DJ Envy had to stay out of most of the conversation
No he educated envy
King Lucini he’s always so ill equipped during interviews. It’s annoying
Neah Ivanna and he seems just uninterested
King Lucini As he usually does.... he serves no purpose
Jidenna broke down the Jay-z & Kap. Situation perfect.
He's one of the few people that has.
No, DL Hughley did.
💯
Yes he did.
fadethechannel “one of a few”
Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria etc. do enjoy tourist dollars but we would be rich if the west stopped meddling on the continent for our minerals.
Yes, and those countries' governments need to stop allowing the meddling from Western countries and China. Also, if the governments would stop being corrupt and taking the money for themselves and not reinvesting it into their people.
@@healed2011 this is exactly. The government is the citizen but fr themselves and family
Only Africans can stop the other worlds from meddling... yet again, more than a quarter has been bought already so THEY are part of Africa now. Therefore, it’s their business to meddle at this point. Also, Africa is not united and even citizens within a country can’t move past the division created by the oppressor among their own people. Africa will only heal and progress if we go back to how our forefathers lived & governed. Use our African culture as a foundation and take what we need from the other world, just like THEY do.
@@zamahudson8889 If Africans and The Diaspora worked together, there will be no need to work with the west
@Ewarton Charlton it's not corrupt in the U.S because the U.S has legalized corruption
when jidenna finds the one, he's gonna make a damn good husband.
He's a charismatic Taurus man but they make awful husbands. They're better at explaining love than actually loving. I'm a Taurus woman and I can attest to this. ♉
No disrespect, but that's ridiculous. I don't know him personally or remotely. He is a individual human being, with his own soul/spirit. But I am a Taurus.
MizIron Box mhmmmm well I could see that, I mean it is off-putting that he finds it okay to share his woman.
@@stellabellafontay9366 so you just came up to a conclusion on this whole man's personality based on some chart you read about stars aligning? You horoscope people are weird.

Jidenna is my husband in my mind. Damn he fine! 😍 Also he's such an intelligent, cultured, funny, witty brotha. He's the total package! 😍😍😍😍😍
12:50 Lol the disrespect he said about Polynesians if only you knew. We polyz are not regular people!! Much love to jidenna for letting people know who we are and we’re we from. We Polyz are stacked on the West side!! We got some in the Mid West and Texas!!!🇹🇴🇼🇸

Mohamed Hashi 🤣🤣🤣🤣 right

This interview really changed my impression of Jidenna. He's pretty intriguing.
He's just seems so down to Earth and chill 😩 we need more artist like him
It’s not about how he looks of course he is attractive we know that... but thats were women get stuck! If you actually pay attention to what the man is saying he’s well spoken ,educated, genuine and open minded... his mind is special it’s way different from the people in this world.... his doing the work and putting it into action🙅🏽♀️
Ofc he is got excepted to Harvard and decided to go Stanford
Angela, I swear...🤣😂😅looks like the funnest, chain smokin, drunk history storytelling Auntie ever, in her get up today.
Jidenna is too smart, I highly doubt they will retain half of what he said and practice.
Lol 😂 😂 😂
Jidenna’s view of the Jay-z situation is spot on.
Respect to Jidenna for respectfully checking CTG. He got his back pay not a deal.
"Start thinking like citizens and immigrants at the same time "
Eye candy and intelligent
Gotta shout out the uso jidenna for showing love to Polynesian people 💪💯 much love from the Samoans down under bless my brother! 💯💥
