By the way, i love this song so much cos it makes a lot of sense to me, even though i am not ibo. Make a joyful noise unto the Lord of the earth, make a loud noise, rejoice, sing praises. Burst into singing and dancing and rejoicing with cymbals and harps. If you can make the singing constructive (harmonious and melodious), then carry go. There are no set rules, just praise God. If you dont like the music, then play the one you like. Don't hate and curse and judge.
...and STRENGHTH of our people. The beautiful diversity we have in all of our cultures, thats what makes us beautiful and helps us have an abundance to offer to the world by bringing our flavor to the table. If you want to be divisive you might as well hound all africans for "stealing" cause all africans do that even congolese and cameroonians. But it doesn't make sense cuz we all are the same. Celebrating all our cultures together makes us stronger. Divisiveness DEFEATS! Simply put.
When you expose yourself to all of our cultures and don't just get stuck on your one little region, you really see that our culturs are FUNDAMENTALLY the same. Ive spent time looking at other videos on here from other cultures and all of the nations have a more UNITED ATTITUDE. They have enough common sense to know that the various small nations make up the WHOLE of one people and they practice all of their cultures.
For all the ignorant people here talking about whos stealing, AFRICANS CAN'T STEAL FROM AFRICANS. This is the African heritage, and the rhythms of soukous and makossa aren't only exclusively found in Congo and Cameroun, and for those of you who don't know Eastern Nigerians have affinities with cameroonians. I can't believe how ignorant we africans are of our own culture! African culture is African culture. All our cultures are derived from the same source, and we celebrate them together. DUFUS!
Go to the polynesian cultural center in Hawaii, and youll see all the cultures of the south pacific represented as POLYNESIAN cultures, even though they come from DIFFERENT islands that have unique distinctions, they recognize themselves as one cluster of people and practice and celebrate all their cultures together. Thats why that facility is the primary foundation on which the whole wealth of the hawaiian islands rests. Many other nations are the same way, only we still have a problem.
its amazing how judgmental we Christians are of ourselves and others. Always thinking we are better than others yet the bible said to be put on the cloak of humility and treat everyone with love. If anyone is going astray, and you think you know better, the bible says it is ur place to pray for that person. About music, the Lord simply said, make a joyful noise, whether or not you can sing and dance doesnt matter, your heart is what matters to Him. Just praise God and forget everything.
Well I will agree with you this time. The idea of dividing Africans into races such as bantus, nilotes is from the Western colonisers. That is what was taught and may still be taught in schools nowadays in history classes. As for common ancestry, you are right for I have found some Igbo or Yoruba words that have similar meanings with words from some African countries far away from Nigeria but are pronounced almost similarly. I get your point.
No other ethnic group have as much problems with divisive attitudes but us who have the most attractive cultures out of everybody, its very embarrassing! Before europeans there were no carved out lines that we today call countries that cause us to be nationalistic. Before we are our tribes we are simply just Africans, before we are Africans, we are Cushites, and Before Cushite, we are Hamites, before Hamites, we are simply JUST HUMAN! Practicing ALL OF OUR CULTURES adds to the POWER...
Koffi and Werasson create soukous music and the sound is very soukous sounding. It's as simple as that. As long as the words are praising G-d there is no problem. Are they singing anything bad?
And lastly as a nigerian myself from a country with over 250 ethnic groups, I have seen what all this ethnic division stupidity, "whos stealing" stupidity, "we are different" stupidity has done to nigeria as well as other african countries and also to black people worldwide, when we really are all the same people and it shouldn't even matter. And while we usually are fighting about who took what among ourselves, foreigners are claiming our cultures and profiting from it right under our nose.
Point of correction for you too. Africa is not composed of RACES(subspecies), but various ETHNIC groups who all come from common origins and ancestors. We and our cultures make up a variety of cultures that even though have distinctions clearly all come from a common pool just as we the people do. Africa is a composite cluster of cultures all deriving from a common pool. So AFRICANS can't steal from AFRICANS.
The enemy will come disgissed as a lamb but in reality will be a wolf only wearing the skin of a lamb. Money making craze is driving people to go to unbelievable levels.
Back to the sound - if u know anything about igbo music, u will notice that above the obviously soukous beat there are some rhythms that u only hear in predominately igbo traditional music. Pls, listen carefully to music before u start ur criticisms. Also, please, let's not throw the word satanist around loosely. Happy new year.
When I say no other ethnic group I mean groups outside of Africa. Read my last comment about the cultural center of Hawaii and learn a lesson. Other ethnic peoples from other continents practice the cultures of all their tribes with less problem about talking about whos stealing, because they have enough common sense to know that they all make up a composite cluster of one culture.
These fellows are singing Igbo language. The only dancing style of the Igbo is bending, stooping down and rising randomly and not the sokous way. I am not ignorant of the Nigerian culture of waiting for people to form tunes and then all they have to do is fix words in and claim that the tune originated from heaven. I am not ignorant of their number one corruption culture.
what are they stealing. If you expect to give an opinion please make yourself clear or say nothing at all. At the moment you have said nothing but a lot of rubbish and whatever you are trying to get people to understand is coming across as pure nonsense
Another thing i like about this Paul videos is that he selected good dancer...just look at the way they're dancing.
