I love it when African culture is celebrated ❤🌍🎉🇿🇦
The Ndebele art is beautiful and you instantly recognize it when you see it
Dr Esther Mahlangu actually opened a guest house in her village where she welcomes tourists who come to see her work and learn from her in Kwa Ndebele, Mpumalanga Province. She has collaborated with some of the biggest car brands in the world by creating 1 of 1. Before there was Virgil, there was Dr Esther.
🧐 We didn’t see this on the list you sent us. You were hiding this one from us,fam 😅
@@TheDemouchetsREACT I put her at number 2 under the Biggest Designers and Visual List I sent you
I stand corrected. I was looking at a different section.
South African legendary Ndebele artist, Dr Esther Mahlangu, has been honoured with a street mural spanning across two lanes on Franklin Street and West Broadway in Tribeca, New York City. The artwork dedicated to her outstanding Ndebele-inspired paintings is named 'Xola', which means Stay in Peace.
The painting features Ndebele symbols designed by New York artist Imani Shanklin Roberts.
My bestie is Ndebele and I promise you the Ndebele ppl are deeply rooted in their culture it’s beautiful
You guys must check out the interior design she did for Rolls Royce & a Muriel she did for Swiss Beats house.
🤯 Rolls Royce???? Oooh we have to see this.
She also interior designed for BMW
The ndebeles are found in limpopo and mpumalanga 1ndebele of manala 2 ndebele nzunza 3 ndebele of kekana.
She design one of the biggest cars in Germany Benz with a Ndebele culture ❤ south African love ester granny 🎉 she did an amazing art and she teaches young kids to follow her work,we love her so much ❤
She ain't getting any share that's for sure no bro.
Pure Authentic art using hands, not computer or 3D. The village where she came from majority could do that but to perfect that it come with years and years of practice, patience, love and respect for her culture. African paint is normally cow dung mixed with water, sometimes clay. Salute to Prof Ester Mahlangu.
The precision in her lines told us all we needed to know! 🙌🏾
@@TheDemouchetsREACT her work was admired by big corporations like BWM , Rolls-Royce. List of well know persons Oprah, Usher, John Legend, Swizz beats. What left me breathless was a call from Rolls-Royce the Uber luxury brand, that speaks volumes about her work.
@@TheDemouchetsREACT if possible check another young village boy Nelson Makamo his work much appreciated in US. Porsche couldn't believe when he spiced up his 911 with his talent.
Proud of my Ndebele culture, even though our language is the least spoken one in SA.
Steve Harvey knows the « in the belly « people 😅😅
I wish one of the best international art school around the world can name their faculty after her
We didn’t know who she was until now. We didn’t realize we were watching a legend.❤
Charity begins at home. If SA is not honouring her people we shouldn't expect others to do so
As a Ndebele am proud of her she makes one proud to be called Ndebele...
I fall in love with my country each day, because we so many things that are amazing about us❤
and we sometimes forget.
just remember it's not really about her but her culture the Ndebele people, because most of them are just as good as her if not better at that artistry, she's just a representative for her people
My grandmother also taught me the beadwork from an early age, and now I do that for extra income, we are colourful in every way😊
For information Ndebele language is a dielect of Xhosa/Zulu languages. These languages togther with Swati, essentially belong together under the Nguni language group. U need to know one of them to understand the rest. Zulu and Xhosa are, however, the largest and the most spoken indigenous languages in South Africa. Of you stay in Cape Town, then you will be among the Xhosa speaking people. In Durban you will be in the Zulu area of South Africa. Johannesburg is a mix of languages but Zulu is widely spoken there as 1st or 2nd language. Sotho/Setwana/Pedi are the other lamnguage group, predominantly in Pretoria, Polokwane and Bloemfontein in terms of big cities.
Her gift brought about collabs with BMW 525i, i5 Electric and Rolls Royce Phantom. Ndebele people are proud.
Please tell me more. How did she contribute to the BMW project?
@@southernafricanboy4148 those Ndebele designs/art work you see in the reaction is basically what the Collab was about. She hand painted the designs on the cars.
@@Starlet_Skinny_Fella I think I saw that Beemers wow we are a proud talented new new SA.
The cow dung and clay soil mix is a traditional plaster or cement across many South African culturals
Her artwork was also displayed in the Black Panther movie❤
Really???? Going check now.
BMW and Rolls Royce too partnered with her.
You have stumbled across one of SA's greatest icons
We see!😁
Cow dung is used in building homes and in decorating homes. Usually huts
When you said Esther baby 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Said with love😂❤️
When you are this side visit Kwa ndebele in mpumalanga to see the decorated houses.
The Legendary mam Esther Mahlangu.
Super Great Video Family
Her art was incorporated in the black panther, the new movie
Koko Esther is a legend ❤
Just imagine tribal art is celebrated world wide😊😊
I first lerned about her im my high school art class.
Juluka - Ibhola Lethu (Sovany)
Beautiful and so awe inspiring!
The Ndebele people are so underrated, maybe it's because they're a minority. But their culture is beautiful, mam'Esther is super talented
This was a lovely video, I love you guys. Keep up the good work❤️
We saw a glimpse on Family Feud. Much love!
As a child in South Africa I was always intrigued by the Ndebele's of almost thd tribes in South Africa. As an artist I loved their art, colours,beadwork and the brass bracelets and neckwear
Umrandzana ❤
1:09 ndebeles 👍🏾👍🏾
The Ndebele Language and accent is very close or similar to the isiXhosa ones specifically isiMpondo (Language under the Xhosa branch as isiXhosa has various dialets and categories that can be recognised as isiXhosa across its Kingdom or territory).at least according to what im hearing here as she speaks (I am Xhosa).
Ai ke nawe
@@Nombulelo_ace khawundehle 😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
Haibo kantamaXhosa njani
😂😂😂😂
Ndebeles are an offshoot of the Zulus who fled Shaka under his Military general Mzilikazi.
My mother is Ndebele and so are my aunt's haibo Xhosa are known culturally to steal credit 😂😂😂😂
Intoyomuntu ngeyami is a Xhosa proverbs that's says what ever someone has is mine😂😂😂
@@Sbudafada dawg andithanga ngamaxhosa I just said based on what I was hearing haibo kanjani ngk ,ndithe ivakala ngathi siso. Kona bobuphi ubusele uthetha ngabo wake wasibona sisiba into zabanye ?
@@Nombulelo_ace lol yazini
Much respect to Mama, she is a one of a kind granny who is talented and blessed. She even is a licensed firearm holder, sadly due to her age, criminals from her hometown targeted her to steal her gun. As a nation we must protect this African gem. The Ndebele people are largely found scattered in Southern Africa with Zimbabwean Ndebele (Northern Ndebele) having the largest number of Ndebele people but only the South African Ndebele (Southern Ndebele) dress like this and express their art like this due to heavy influences of foreign colonizers and different tribes like the Vhenda people
Can you expound on the part about expressing their art? What are the differences?
Ndebele are the people and isiNdebele is the language
Ndebele is a surname in KwaZulu
thank you for that educational. from Cape Town we learn about our own SA diversity from the internet knowledge going to and fro as its says in the word.
😢That's Yanda from soeading humours podcast's grandma wow!
❤
The Ndebele belong to the Nguni group of Bantu, the same group where the Zulu and Xhosa belong. Ndebeles are found in Mpumalanga province of South Africa and in Zimbabwe. Their houses are decorated with that art.
Zimbabwean Ndebele and South African Ndebele are not the same. The South African ndebele predates the mfecane whilst the Zimbabwean ndebele are more related to the Zulu nation as they are a result of Mzilikazi’s exodus from KwaZulu during the mfecane.
The Zim Ndebele is different from SA Ndebele including language and their culture, same name different culture and tradition
@@Bbb-ml4gb No you are wrong. Mzilikazi was an Induna of Tshaka. He left Zulu land with a Battalion to attack Shonas accross the Limpopo. Never to return, kept his loot. Ndebeles in SA are the same with those in Zim. Sorry.
@@riverniletv7273 *sigh* you’re correct in your assessment that Mzilikazi was a lieutenant of Shaka where you are wrong is that but by the time Mzilikazi left KwaZulu, the Ndebele as a people already existed and had splintered into three main groups (the Manala, Ndzundza and Kekana/Mthombeni). To further illustrate this point, the ndebele language in Zimbabwe sounds just more like IsiZulu than the IsiNdebele spoken in South Africa.
@riverniletv7273 You are wrong. Along his trek, he was given shelter by amaNdebele and Batswana, hence the name Matebele, he got that from Batswana. IsiNdebele of Zim is closer to isiZulu than it is to isiNdebele from KwaNdebele, isiNrebele from Limpopo has Sepedi, isiXhosa, siMpondo rolled up in one. Only a few Ndebele Zim people bear surnames of amaNdebele from MP, majority have Zulu surnames.
I have mixed feelings about this. I fear that this Ntebele Art, once it reaches the US, someone is going to eventually claim it as theirs without acknowledgement.
We highly doubt that would happen with a well known artist. The video we reacted to was filmed 6 years ago. Both the US and South Africa have amazingly talented artists.
@@TheDemouchetsREACT he actually means the style and influence will be taken and fused without acknowledging it's roots.
This it what happened with many south African art forms like rap and gumboot dance now called stomp
mam Ester is a phenomenal woman, here she speaks Afrikaans explaining her designs too : ua-cam.com/video/UOVMayux4ZY/v-deo.html

JESUS CHRIST LOVES YOU ALL ❤❤❤
He's warning everyone to turn back to Him because He's coming back very soon and will judge everyone accordingly, as it written in Revelation 22:12 that, 'Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done.
2 Corinthians 5:10 also says,
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. And. Last but not least,
Romans 14:12 says that,
So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.
SO REPENT AND ACCEPT JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR LORD SAVIOR AND BE SAVE NOW!!
The ndebele nation are descendents and brake away group of the Zulu Nation. Created after Shaka's top military general Mzilikazi broke away from Shaka and preseded to move north with a section of the population that was loyal to him. He settled in an around what is known today as Zimbabwe and Mpumalanga provinces. On his way northwards he incorparated and annexed other smaller tribes. The ndebele language is a dialect of Zulu. It sounds more like the zulu language that is spoken in the northern and more rural parts of KZN province. Ndebele people are the second largest nation of people in Zimbabwe after the Shona but are among the smaller nations in South Africa. They are easily the most artistic and most colourful of all the Kingdoms of nations that make up the South AFrican population. Their current recognised King is a guy I went to University with in Port Elizabeth(Gqeberha), unbeknown to us at the time of course.He also did not brandish that about and acted like the rest of us commorners. Most of us only found out he was royalty after we left varsity.
Ndebele people exist before shaka .we are not part of you in Zimbabwean let alone we have same surname & clan name when you king Mzilikazi was running away from Shaka he seek refuge in my tribe .then he steal our cattles & proceed to Zimbabwe .our history goes back in the 1500 .so we are not Zulu we were never Zulus either our we cousins with Ndebele of Zimbabwe your King assume the name cause he was hiding from Shaka .your people are not Ndebele let alone we share the same culture & customs & language .is very imperative to research your history & learn who u are .hance my people will never come to Zim to celebrate u Mzilikazi .only Zulu from kzn cause your king was link in Kzn
brother thank you for this information received. imperialism has divided Southern Africa or South Africa it was a big place Lord knows where it begins at the top. Namibia west was Also cut away on a map from this country. I see the bigger picture now. We can be very proud democracy. cpt
