As an African American it warms my heart more than words can describe when I see the diaspora come together. Cant wait to visit my cuban brother and sisters!
The sad thing is that Cuba is no longer the land of rumba, conga.and cha cha cha, because of the dictators, and with the virus, everything is worse. I am Latinamerican, and this always made me sad. Well there are other Latinamerican countries with the diaspora Dominican Republic, and.I am from Panama.
That would've been nice but Celia left her wigs to her now Ex Manager Omer Pardillo Cid just in case many wanted to use them for exhibits in museums I'll just say Celia left her dresses to Omer her personal photos and many other s were left to her husband Pedro Knight who died on 2007 after that many owners of museums reached out to Omer to see if he wanted to make an exhibit for Celia's life and he said yes
As a black and afro Puerto Rican mix, who grew up off of both of these iconic queens, this is absolutely beautiful to watch! I love it, love it, love it!
Celia is the queen..., I got to see her at Madison square garden..... And many other places I got to take pictures with her and her husband..... It was a sad time when she passed away..... But I've danced to her music for many years 🥰😘
Alecia J Patti really looked like her before she got a nose job. I love Celia Cruz people say I looked like her when she was younger. that's how I found out about her.
Alioski Di Cuña Patti is African American and Celia is Afro-Cuban. I think she’s referring to the diaspora. If you got a little black, you’re of African descent.
Celia, Patti & Sheila E. on the drums!!! I wonder why I never saw this! Pure magic with all of them on stage. ( I was in college at the time, a blur and a book worm.) But to have seen this in person would have been so MIND BLOWING & humbling. ALL QUEENS!!! Love this!
You never saw this because they want to keep us separate and keep us think that our culture isn't Aboriginal Spanish African And Caribbean I'm A Creole Spanish French and Sioux And The Disconnect is they want to disconnect the Aboriginal The African and The Spanish so we won't get the whole picture 🖼️ just like this beautiful picture were seeing right now
I love the look that Celia gives Patti at 2:01 "I know you ain't dragging my damn coat across the floor" and then at 3:46, Celia's like "I better step back, she's getting ready to blow"
Tears in my eyes watching these two QUEENS doing what they do best, singing, dancing and entertaining us. All while looking regal in those gowns, heels and wigs. Patti’s legs were killer, still are. My favorite part was when they rubbed chests on each other as if to say they were equally strong and talented. They played off each other beautifully. Wish they had made the movie about Celia’s life with Patti playing the role. She would have been perfect for it. RIP Celia
Every time I watch this, I get chills. 2 straight-up divas WORKING it! It is obvious that they were kindred spirits musically and I loved watching them sing each other's style of music...oh and check out Sheila E ... she KNEW this was history-in-the-making. Mis respetos...you have to be on top of your game to sing with either of these ladies and they handled it!
lol, no one ever called me "Bells." I might have to use that one. Where does your name originate from? Mine is a very common Dominican name, so much so that I had 2 friends in Jersey with the same name. Nice to meet you Salkis.
Belkis Martinez Aww wow, well my name is African in origin, not sure of what part though.. I always have been connected to Latin culture and music, Im from Trinidad so the music is very close and food too, I always wanted to marry a puerto rican or cuban or dominican but I was told that they are too aggressive so I got scared… but i love it!
Salkis Re hi Salkis, every country have strict and aggressive men, some abusive as well. I've been abused by 1-Dominican, 1-Puerto Rican, and that was the end of that madness. My husband now is from Barbados, a great man-married 11 years now. I love Trinidadians food, music and culture, it's so close to ours
That night was unforgettable. I know I'll never forget watching it on TV at my grandmother's house. I was heading out the door when they said pattie and Celia on the same stage... i had to sit and tune in a few more minutes to see that performance. It was legendary!
Crying 😭 this is so beautiful to watch from a Puertorican woman who cherishes both Cuban and African Americans contribution to so many beautiful art forms ! This is fire
I discovered Ceila Cruz late in her journey through life and have loved her ever since "La Negra Tiene Tumbao!" She was a treasured powerhouse. This duet with Ms. Patti had my singing and dancing right along with them!! LOL! What a pairing! And Sheila E. on congas was devine!!!
That's amazing!! I have always thought Celia and Patti favored each other. I'm African American but I have Hispanic aunts so I know some Celia songs and I know who she is. I've read some of the comments and they are comparing the two. You can't compare them. They are both HIGHLY respected singers in their respectable genres of music. Seeing the two of them together was beautiful. Thanks for posting this.
Damned tears on my cheeks. Never understood people who were moved to that at concerts, until now. Haven't felt this damned good and happy in awhile. There's just no way that Music doesn't originate from a sacred place. There's just no way. The Old Peoples, they knew. Damned tears...
"One of the very first Ladies of Song, Ms. Celia Cruz." - Patti LaBelle Nice to hear such kind words from one Legend to Another. The ladies are on FIRE! And Sheila E. just ROCKED the best out of the great band! The stage could've just burned to ashes. Fantastic performance. =D
Patti, if you don't quit screaming and go to rrhearsals so you cab learn the song!! Hahahaha! But they looked like they were having so much fun up there!
First, Patti knew one word and still slayed on that stage! Second, Celia Cruz is amazing! Third, in the full clip, the ovation to their performance lasted longer than the performance! Everyone was feeling it that night! :)
I first meet Celia via Television while living in the South @ age 8! I was soooo happy to someone who looked like me but hell I was confused because she looked like Patti LaBelle and I thought when did Patti learn spanish 😂😂😂😂 Either way this is beautiful and it a testament to us being "One" as a collective artistically
This is so freakin dope af !! Two ladies i love I'm black American and Celia Cruz was a big part of my life. I feel good seeing this tears in my eyes The Queen Celia Cruz forever in our hearts
OMG I just love it!!!!! MY ears were bleeding and my feet were still moving long after i first saw this, lol! Love these two ladies, they are music royalty----AZUCAR!!!!
I am so glad that you said this. I love seeing the two of them on stage together. In my opinion, very few people can match Patti when she gets going, but Celia was just as crazy as she was. This pairing up does not disappoint. I loved it, loved it loved it. Awesome! !!!!!!!!!AZUCAR!!!!!!!
HAPPY 78th BIRTHDAY BELATEDLY (May 24, 2022) TO OUR WONDERFULLY OUTSTANDING INTERNATIONAL GOD MOTHER OF SOUL MISS PATTI LABELLE!🥰 MUCH LOVE 2 U MAMA P😍!👍
This is amazing! love Patti’s energy & vocals in this performance. Yes Patti!! 🎉😄 I miss Celia Cruz 🥹 she had such an genuine spirit & her music is timeless ❤
It’s amazing how God made us all so unique but how he made us all in his own image. I wish all of us could be so loving toward each other know matter what language. Like Ms.Cruz and Ms Pattie Labelle.
Celia on Netflix brought me here...I LOVE everything about this and am so happy to be learning her story!!!! This is an epic collaboration of sisterhood and celebration of melanin throughout the diaspora!!!! #LaNegrasTieneTumbao!!!!

You're a Black American not an African
@@charlieo3150They are Afrikans born in amerikkka.
@limonesycafe8898 We all get labeled no matter what, but to just be calling an America would be a good thing
@limonesycafe8898 I 100% believe in not referring to Brown skin Americans as African
As a child, I use to think that they were related, they kinda resemble each other.
What Celia is shouting from 2:11-2:13 isn’t in the song?
They were actually close friends. I believe Celia left Patti her wigs in her will. Both Amazing performers.
Mz. TC Z lmao! I cackled
manukahoney 😂
hahahah I find it cute she left her her wigs.
That would've been nice but Celia left her wigs to her now Ex Manager Omer Pardillo Cid just in case many wanted to use them for exhibits in museums I'll just say Celia left her dresses to Omer her personal photos and many other s were left to her husband Pedro Knight who died on 2007 after that many owners of museums reached out to Omer to see if he wanted to make an exhibit for Celia's life and he said yes
@@coreysworld702 Celia Cruz has a museum already it has all of her costume photos and personal things or Celia Cruz
Africans of the diaspora!
As a black and afro Puerto Rican mix, who grew up off of both of these iconic queens, this is absolutely beautiful to watch! I love it, love it, love it!
My boyfriend is Afro Latino and he said the same. He definitely embraces his Black and Hispanic heritage.
Yessssss
I agree
What Celia is shouting from 2:11-2:13 isn’t in the song?
2 Sisters of African descent both are great in their own land showing each other nothing but love
Celia is African

U guys have no idea how much this means to me, patti and celia, WOW
both legends. both TRUE ARTISTS. AMAZING!
This was amazing!
Pedro Carrazana
Oh I feel it too!!! Such a blessing see them perform. Hard to believe this was twenty years ago.
YES!
I thought I was the only one ... LEGENDS !!
2 wings on the same bird I love these 2 ladies
Patti sang in St. Patrick's Cathedral when Celia Cruz died, I will always be grateful to Patti for that, we all loved Celia.
It's why I fuck with Patti. I love her!
Wow how respectful and honorable ❤❤❤❤
Celia is the queen..., I got to see her at Madison square garden..... And many other places I got to take pictures with her and her husband..... It was a sad time when she passed away..... But I've danced to her music for many years 🥰😘
I've always said they look so much alike
yes!!!! i said the same thing too!
yes me too! two awesome ladies

Alecia J Patti really looked like her before she got a nose job. I love Celia Cruz people say I looked like her when she was younger. that's how I found out about her.
YESSSSSSSS!
2 super hyper GRANDES!!!
Looks like Sheila E is having a blast man! And here, soul and salsa do mix. Ultimately, it points to the same origin - Africa.
It really does. See how easy Patti can get into it? It's all from Africa.
bpabustan I had a feeling that was her
Agreed

Dona Celia, Ms Patti and SHEILA E on the same stage!
Heaven!!!
blood sisters from africa.
Ian 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
I love both of those African Queens. I can definitely feel the passion deep in my soul when they sing,
dare2eatcandy its so true ❤❤❤
Latina and Black Magic 💗
None of them are Africans. Celia was from Cuba 🇨🇺, and Patti is American 🇺🇸.
@@alioskidicuna6395 exactly
Alioski Di Cuña Patti is African American and Celia is Afro-Cuban. I think she’s referring to the diaspora. If you got a little black, you’re of African descent.
I got chills when they started just harmonizing together 🥹💖
Merciful God, allow me to rock and groove to salsa , Rumba and Guaguanco music like these two FANTASTIC ladies when im old and grey...AMEN
Celia, Patti & Sheila E. on the drums!!! I wonder why I never saw this! Pure magic with all of them on stage. ( I was in college at the time, a blur and a book worm.) But to have seen this in person would have been so MIND BLOWING & humbling. ALL QUEENS!!! Love this!

LOVE IT
¡¡Exactamente !!
Sheila Escovedo on congas? Sizzling this entire performance. Peoples of the African Diaspora giving back to the Universe....
Thank Fuck for Black Music!!
I never knew they performed together until this came on TikTok. This makes me so happy.
I love them both🥰❤️🖤💚✊🏾❤️🖤💚
La humildad tanto de Patty y Celia no tiene límites viva la vida, viva la música ♥️
Celia Cruz la mejor ❤
Two of the MOST SPICY divas of two different styles of music.
These singers today could NEVER work it like these two.💞💖🎉🎊🎤🎵🎶
La India could...😂
I love the look that Celia gives Patti at 2:01 "I know you ain't dragging my damn coat across the floor" and then at 3:46, Celia's like "I better step back, she's getting ready to blow"
I never seen this! Awesome!
Two beautiful black women of two different cultures. I love both of them....RIP Celia. Keep living Patti.

OMG! I love it!!! Two professionals entertainers and Sheila E drummin in the background!!! Yup this is perfect
Salkis Re YES, Yes, yes...Ms. Sheila E is mos def killing those "tamboras." btw, is that your real name? so close to mine "Belkis"
Belkis Martinez hey Bells yes that my real name dear, nice to meet you!
lol, no one ever called me "Bells." I might have to use that one. Where does your name originate from? Mine is a very common Dominican name, so much so that I had 2 friends in Jersey with the same name. Nice to meet you Salkis.

They look like they are having so much fun! Rip Celia
They're like twins who took different paths of music-one is soul and the other one is salsa
The diaspora is everything ❤
Their energy is stellar!!!!
