Sona in Mandinka means, from the root word " Sonna" meaning given to me as in a "gift". A gift given to a person by thee lord. She's a gift indeed. Shine on my star. I love you so much 💖🙏
I'm a 35 year old half Indian guy from Australia, I've always loved African music, back in the 90's my dad had some old encarta program on the computer that had excerpts of African music - and I couldn't get enough of it. Looking at this awesome musician, and the crowd, which is a lot of grey hair, old hippies? Doesn't matter, I just know these are my people. A big mixture of everything and everyone coming together. I love it. Great song.
Sona Jorbateh is not just beautiful but she has beautiful soul and voice. I love Sona for maintaining African culture and vibe. More love from Malawi my dear sister.
Sona ma your really Gold Amma, I'm from India Bangalore (Sona meens Gold) You are really texture of Gold Amma,,,,,May God Bless You and your family, entire your musician, (team) really I love your cora music, you are my lovely dear sister ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😊
The first beautiful woman who plays with Cora instrument is Sona Jobarta from The Nice African Country Gambia 😍🕊️🇷🇺🕊️😍 Love you All My friend Africans people's ❤🕊️❤
You might well know a straight descendant of the instrument. The Griots also had simpler 'traveling' versions of the instrument like the 'Akonting" for example. These found their way to the Americas in the dark days of slavery and eventually evolved into the 5-string banjo. I happen to play traditional claw hammer style banjo which I learned through listening to old recordings and such. Once I had the privilege of playing with an African Griot at a due in Belgium. We could not speak with each other because we didn't speak each other's language but we found out we had scores of tunes in common. One of the highlights in my life. So much fun! BLACK MUSIC MATTERS :-) Love to all from the Netherlands

Sonah, you are strong and beautiful, your outer beauty is radiated by the light of your inner beauty and strength of spirit. You are a spirit helper, for if we all help each other, then those in power have no power over us, and we all rise. And all those in your band, snd you, are such wonderful musicians. Many thanks!
I am again 'prisoned' in Duffel (UPC)now for another 30 days. I hope your divine music can bring me peace and silence to overcome this. Besides I am not that bad at all in overcoming any obstacle. I have a huge mission (like saving this beautiful planet Earth) and nothing or nobody can stop this. We work together respect for each individual to create a better world of peace harmony justice an LOVE. I am proud to be an instrument of +The Divine to transform anything into love wisdom and compassion. Love to you Sona and band! X Gaiana

I am from Ethiopia I wish I can attend one of this concerts more than anything, what I love about it is that we are half way around the world but this song hit right at where we both feel and connect through being at the same mindset. It’s just so beautiful that she can do that more than any thing, Ethiopia muso
I had the immense, immense privilege of seeing her perform in Philadelphia at the City Winery….for her she is incomparable in a league, dimension all her own….
Я так был очарован всем, что голос изумрудный Соны не подчеркнул. Это шедерв. Она это не будет читать, но меня многие братья и сестры поймут... Я хочу поехать в АФРИКУ!
I'm from Canary Island. Geográficamente somos africanos, nuestros primeros pobladores provienen del norte de África. Esta artista me ha cautivado completamente, es impresionante.
OOOoooohw yes, thank God, we dance together when this song plays. Thank you dancing crowd, it brings me joy and it brings you joy. Like the lady said, this is our song, cheers to all the Ndlovukazi.
O(Kora),em si já é difícil de tocar. E ouvindo esta senhora a dar este chow é de louvar a intenção de preservar a cultura Africana. Parabéns, bem _haja. Beijinhos.
Very glad that I randomly clicked this video, wonderful music, first time hearing these type of music, I love it, much love from Uruguay.
