I'm a Jamaican, and there's something about the South African rhythm and tone that captivated me (I prayed my ancestors are from the Zulu tribe....I fell in love with Brenda's voice, vibes and her blackness....I just love South Africa....one love to the mother land.
Vulindlela was a national anthem in Nigeria 🇳🇬 that time. We didn’t understand the language but we sang it like no other. I grew up listening to it’s a wedding day 💃 at a point,nI thought she was Nigerian.
That's my home my late young home girl in the Langa Township in South Africa. She made it great in music but unfortunately died young. Whilst she was unknown in Cape Town we stayed in the same Township of Langa and the same street, both musicians with her brother pianist, Themba. I don't want to claim anything but I now live in the UK as a saxophonist and a postgraduate in music. Brenda Fassie was a genius singer/ star at a very your age. Her brother, Themba asked me to take care of her and I did although for a short time because she later ran away to Johannesburg whilst I went to University, when I came back I was told she was gone. Thanks
I am Nigerian 🇳🇬 and I love that she sings for national peace, unity, and Progress. I love her connection with children. I have learnt many life lessons from her. My childhood was branded by Vulindlela, midodo and Wedding Day
Brenda is an absolute classic no matter what part of Africa you're from. I love her interview footage but I wish there was more. Would be cool to get a more in-depth sense of the woman behind the music. RIP magnificent one!
Her music will not just be heard and sung for a long time but forever. I heard the "soon and very soon" track being played when growing up as a kid and that's one of her best .Ghanaian and greetings to all south Africans .
I'm Zambian, my mum used to love Mabrrr, we would listen to her when I was young, the first time I visited SA we went to her show and I fell in love😍 I've been in love and awe of the woman. She made me understand the power of music and each time I listen or watch her music.. Yo! I can go on and on bout this soul.. MYCTRIP Mabrrr😢❤️
There'll never be a Brenda ever again - thank you so much Sis Brenda for being the best entertainer in my life. I loved you, I loved your music and I will never forget you. Rest well Diva❤😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
She was a true superstar, too bad I discovered her late. She's got the best voice I've ever heard. What a charismatic person she was! RIP Brenda , you gave us your best.
this is the only woman I knew in the media when I was growing and I don't mean to brag but she's the only artist who danced with our presidents... there's only one Brenda ,,,ngyakuthanda sister R.I.P
I started paying attention to anything SA bcse of her. I rmbr the very 1st time I heard her sound in the very early 90s and knew I've discovered a treasure. 2020 and I'm still listening. To me her "soon and very soon" is the best rendition ever attempted by anybody EVER .
Brenda, it feels sad to know you are no more. I listened to you back in 2000. I was very young then, I never stopped listening till date. I love you. I love you always.
This is 2024 and I still really really love your music. I listened to you first as a child and years later, your songs are still so beautiful. Rest on ❤❤❤
Brenda was an angel who came to earth with a message of love and she did this through her music. Her journey continues her love will resonanate for eternity on this planet while she continues with her journey. Thank you sister Brenda for inspiring me and millions. Great people like Brenda knows that they are only hear for a while I believe that. So rather than us been sad we should thank The Most High God for granting us the privilege to witness and to see one of his many saints...
I still can't accept your departure 😭, every time I listen to this music I have tears in my eyes, I dreamed of meeting you one day and here you are leaving this world monde alive, you were so precious in my eyes, Africa will never have a talent like yours ❤❤❤ ... every day I listen to your music and I can't help crying, the world 🌏 is really unfair, you will remain eternally etched in my memory, I love you (ivory cost🇨🇮), may your soul rest in peace mom BRENDA FASSIE 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
She was one of the kind. I hope Bathabile Brenda Ngubeni sees this and take notes because we want to see her playing on this legends' movie. I am pretty sure tears will fall on peoples eyes when they use her for the role.
sacré bout de femme partie vraiment trop tôt elle laissse des tres belles chansons et un tres tres beau sourir repose en paix ma grande star i love you
If there are more word's to discribe you it is gonna be when we meet again in the paradise.... you're source of inspiration to many including my very self ,you have your best and your best was enough.... sometimes I wish we can turn back the hand's of time but it's so sad and unfortunately nobody can do that because life is just a moment and I believe you really defined the moment with your music...rest in peace mama Brenda fassie ,the voice that suits heavenly singers
She Low key predicted her own death. She was way ahead of her time... Thank you so much for this... watched it with tears rolling down my cheeks... it's beautiful❤ You are missed maBrrr🕯💛👑
This superstar, had a direct connection with the muse, the unconscuous, creativity poured out of her,music flowed, emotion in motion. Just wow, MaBrr. Wish we had more through you.
she said if someone try me i'll deal with you now and i'll put Brenda fassie aside lol she was really a true rebellion I've listening to her music since I was 4 and i'm so happy to know her songs
- Very sad and ♥ breaking, - very underrated celebrity, - highly talented individuals, - soon and very soon, - so much missed by the 🎭 public ⛣ 👀 -👍like to support this documentary.
Extraordinary human being, I'm glad to meet her in the year 2002 in the Street of Johannesburg, she smiled and kissed me. I will love you forever Marbree
When she was pronounced dead I cried so much, I was hurt to the core. It was mother's day that I remember so clearly.I still say to people that had Mam'Brenda was alive in 2010, that world cup would have been hers🤞🏾
I’m here on October 26, 2024, two days after my 42nd birthday. I recall the talents that shaped my growing up days and my heart tolls on Brenda Fassie. Coming to realize she was only 40 at her death, gets me blown away. She was larger than life.
Rest well gorgeous star, just found out you’re dead since 2004 and it’s so heartbreaking, I’ve been tearing up so much since. Death is indeed a wicked course on humanity.
Very soon it will be 20 years on , continue resting easy mama Brenda, you did your best and you will forever be remembered and your music will plau on and live in our hearts forever 😢,such a legend,rip ma Brr 😢 🕊️
April 16, 2017 What an amazing and beautiful woman. Been listening to her songs all afternoon. would loved to have met and known her. Not racist white ex British in canada.
Her personality reminds me of Zodwa’s personality. They live their truth, and they do things the way they want, both don’t conform to society expectancies,m. They just don’t care about other people as long as they happy. You are dearly missed Mabrrr, and we share a birthday but different years ofcoz, she is my fellow Scorpio Queen 3rd November Queens
I'm a Jamaican, and there's something about the South African rhythm and tone that captivated me (I prayed my ancestors are from the Zulu tribe....I fell in love with Brenda's voice, vibes and her blackness....I just love South Africa....one love to the mother land.
And I want to visit Jamaica I love it.. The culture there! 🇯🇲
Ooh she's Xhosa not zulu
Whatever she is she is African and I adore her and her blackness. Black is black today, tomorrow and yesterday. I love my black people
@@jahloveredeemer4093yes she's African but still Xhosa as well as Zahara and many other South African greats!
@@babalontloko1680thank you🙏🏻

Name of the street?
Why do you live in the country of the people you hate?
Oh mum Brrenda we love u why u had to rest so early we miss u in our screens rest well mommy❤
I am Nigerian 🇳🇬 and I love that she sings for national peace, unity, and Progress. I love her connection with children. I have learnt many life lessons from her. My childhood was branded by Vulindlela, midodo and Wedding Day
To some extent she had the same fire as Fela Kuti... Ppl rooted in culture, unity, joy and fighting injustice 💯💯.
Brenda is an absolute classic no matter what part of Africa you're from. I love her interview footage but I wish there was more. Would be cool to get a more in-depth sense of the woman behind the music. RIP magnificent one!

Wonderful documentary.. Nice to see an african diva and a woman with such self confidence, hapiness and strength.
Brenda was really thing, RIP. Still listening to your music 2023.
this is the only woman I knew in the media when I was growing and I don't mean to brag but she's the only artist who danced with our presidents... there's only one Brenda ,,,ngyakuthanda sister R.I.P
Nuckie China true

She is Mandela's niece...so it was easier for her to bring him to her shows...
Thank you for this wonderful tribute to the Princess!!
Watching this in 2023 and almost crying 😢😢
Brenda, it feels sad to know you are no more. I listened to you back in 2000. I was very young then, I never stopped listening till date. I love you. I love you always.
That part she hugs Mandela so hurting 😢 hope they still hug each other in heavens, kenya 🇰🇪 we love you.
Yo! 😭 ngize ku-RUclips ngoba ngithi ngizombuka kancane njengoba ngizibhalela iFilm ezngifisa ifake umculo wakhe othi "Vulindlela", ngiyamuthanda nami ngakhula ngilalela bona. I even love IJozi noma sebahlukana kodwa khona lento abayishiyayo kimina ngomculo wabo. Umama uLeleti naye wangishiye nento engachazeki uma elingisa kwi-Sarafina, khona lento engathi babengayilingisi kodwa yayingaphakathi kubona i-PEACE. Ilokho nami engikufunayo,ukuthula, ukuvula amathuba, to share the little we have with one another, kuningi nje engicela uNkulunkulu akwenze ngathi singabantu bakhe.
I love how all the women including Brenda Fassie were so confident in their natural hair and skin tone.. 👸.. African women should go back to this..
Who's forcing you or them to hate yourself/themselves? Photo and apps editing and filtering?
We never changed
Sana🤞❤️❤️❤️❤️🙆🏿

Things have changed again, I guess.
