Wow!! Mind blown. So much new information, not to mention inspiration and restoration, from this report. Thank you 60 Minutes!! I never heard of this music before but have dreamed inexplicably of Morocco for at least 50 years. Today I start $aving for a trip to Morocco.
Go there during the festival week, it amazing. Its week of great ancestry music.
Welcom to morocco m'y syster❤
I highly recommend you come to the Gnawa Festival in Essaouira city in Morocco in June. You will have a unique experience.
But some information said in this video is wrong. The port was build by the Portuguese who not subsaharian slaves actually because Portugal had control over that part of Morocco at the time and that’s why it’s called Mogador.
@gmailyou367 yes! I let things, such as historical facts that are benign, slide by. Overall, puts Essaouira on a map. Good enough for moi.
Morocco is Morocco, we're not perfect, we live to make the world a better place for everyone ... for real!
Thank you for this fantastic episode. It was a nice trip to the past to remind us of who we are and push us to be our best self for Africa and for the world.
Morocco is Africa
Morocco is Africa? 😅
Can you tell us a bit how your regime intel assassinated Patrice Lumumba ?

Nigeria has Afrobeats, South Africa has Amapiano, and this is my first time hearing Morocco's G'nawa. I find G'nawa very mesmerizing, and rhythmatic. The castanets reminds me of the tamborines in the Black Church here in America. I'm really learning a lot about this form of music.
The casonets were originally shackels
SOuth Africa has way more than Amapiano
Also in south west of algeria please add thé information
@@Rebelconformist82 they was INSPIRED
Afrobeats...really?...😂😂
Educate yourself plz... youre gonna compare that to ancient music like Gnawa? Afrobeats isnt some ancient native Nigerian music its made up of reagge, hip-hop & the original Afrobeat.
Most Nigerian Parents i know 50 & up eithee dislike afrobeats or have never heard of it
I am Moroccan. lived the first half of my life in The northern part of Morocco. Growing up, I attended Gnawa ceremonies in my home town at least once a year. It is a very spiritual night to say the least. Dances and tranced around all night. Wipping my hair around, cried and laughed alllllll night.. no judgement. it was a soul cleansing night for me and the poeple around in the house. I loved every second of it. neck is sore next day but the soul is at ease and for a good week after that. I loved every moment of it. Thank you for sheding light on this amazing kind of music.

welcome to Morocco My Friend Morocco From Gnawa 🇲🇦😍
You should go to Essaouira festival. This music is spiritual and once you start dancing to it your soul liberates. It's best for soul healing.
The Moroccan culture is universal 🇲🇦🇲🇦🇲🇦💪
Actually it's not! Black American Culture is universal. BLUES come from the descendants of CHATTEL SLAVES in the U.S., not Morocco whom we never met nor know anything about. Find someone else's back to ride!
For us Moroccans it's more than just music, it's spiritual and sacred and sometimes people can lose control over their bodies while dancing with Gnawa's music
Everyday i learn something new about our African heritage, and it is amazing!!
You are not the only one
Thank you for this segment. The first time I heard Gnawa music was in the late 90s. I knew nothing of its origins & history but I understood it emotionally, spiritually immediately. Very powerful music.

You still don't! It has nothing to do with Black American music especially the Blues. I don't see how they thought they could get away with LIES like this.
@@msrubie11it seems some black Americans wants to be related to Morocco by force. First the ones calling themselves moors, than the ones who discovered Berbers 2 days ago and think it’s one race and want them to be black without knowing the original North African tribe are not black and Touaregs are originally from subsaharian nations like mali and Niger and now Gnawa. It’s getting annoying this obsession about Morocco
@@gmailyou367exactly, they all want to be Moroccans and create stories as history so they can corrupt our glorious rich culture....
My mom was born in Essaouira and I am proud to have been a part of this spiritual city that gave life back to Gnaoua music and was the Mecca of experimental artists such as Jimmy Hendrix , the Rolling Stones...

As a Black American who come from the states where mostly EVERY GENRE of Black American Music was formed and crafted I have nothing against anyone who want to enjoy and emulate Black American music.. I have issues with people who LIE and attempt to STEAL and EMBELLISH Black American music and come up with scenario to grift and steal what they know is not their own.
Jimi Hendrix was an ESTABLISHED ARTIST, NOT an "EXPERIMENTAL ARTIST" when he shortly visited your country. The Rolling Stones were copying Black American BLUES MEN. The SOUTH where THE BLUES, ORIGINATED. This man who is Caribbean lied. The one from Cali know he lied. Baise liked the HORN sounds of the Cubans. He went to Cuba played with the Afro Cubans and incorporated their horns in his band. .
I am not the only one who will absolutely destroy the liars who are the narrators of this farce documentary attempting to give false relevance. Almost ANY Black American Southerner, Northerner or Midwesterner will do the same with what we know are misnomers. We are immensely well versed in our HISTORY and CULTURE. You were given a MYTH! None of your music sound remotely like Black American Music.
Your music sounds are Latin, (Cuban), and Arab! We couldn't grove to that. There is no Funk. How did you come to the conclusion that Jimi Hendrix was an "Experimental Artists? Hendrix was in Bands with famous R&B, Rock N Roll and Blues Artist before his "SHORT VISIT" to Morocco. He played in bands as early as 1959. He was playing with the Isley Brothers in 1964. He played with Little Richard in 1965.
His first solo show was in 1966. He was an established Artists and nothing in his Music reflect Morocco or Gnaoua music. I mean no disrespect but no one in Black American ever emulated your music, AT all! Why would we? We had no need to emulate anyone else. This music wouldn't have even caught our interest.
Everyone all over the world including the ROLLING STONES were running to Black America. Why were they not running to Morocco? Please go grift off someone else's culture or better yet, let YOUR MUSIC stand on its own. If it's good enough it will survive. But Black Americans are not Black Immigrants and we will never allow you to grift off our music and culture!

Our truth will destroy your narrative and credibility and your music will go with it. They are not doing you a favor. Let him give up Reggae, that's his culture.
The BLUES and every Black American Music Genre will stay home! At this point none of you can't be trusted.
Jimi Hendrix's short visit to Morocco during the summer of 1969 produced a mountain of erroneous information and fictitious stories. * “In the late 1960s Jimi Hendrix made several trips to Morocco” (source: liner notes for the CD Morocco: Crossroads of Time released by Ellipsis Arts, U.S.A., 1995).

Hopefully they will stop trying to lie about native North African Amazighs being a kick and will accept that Amazighs North Africans have never being black 😂 the obsession of black Americans about Morocco is weird
Gnawa is one of countless proofs that Morocco is rooted deep into beautiful Africa.
Its also a factual proof that indigenous moroccans and other north africans (berber/amazigh) were not black like some afro-americans want to claim
@@makavelihussein2013 The original North Africans were BLACK. “The descendants of Eurasian invaders in North Africa, including Morocco, Algeria have passed down traditions of the North African Blacks they fought with and pushed south, including the Bafours.”
@@makavelihussein2013What proof is that?
@@makavelihussein2013We're talking about the music 🎵 of enslaved Black Africans sent to modern day Morocco

The city of Essaouira was built by Sultan Muhammad bin Abdullah bin Ismail Al-Alawi (King Muhammad III) on the simple principle of tolerance, after thirty years of the Moroccan civil war in which two Moroccan armies faced each other, namely Bukhari’s army, which was formed by Sultan Ismail bin Ali (Moulay Ismail) from slaves, most of them were black, with some white Europeans, and the second army is the Oudaya's army, composed of Arab tribes.
Morocco did not know peace for thirty years of wars and coups until Muhammad III was able to dissolve the two armies and compensate them with international agreements with the great powers of the time.
In order to send a message to Great Britain that Morocco is a friend to everyone and not subordinate to anyone, Mohammed III recognized the independence of the United States of America in 1777, as the first international recognition of that newly born nation.
Why you made sound like a racial war. Was it ? A lot of dinestiea ruled morocco
Wow so glad this was on my feed! I think it’s my first time hearing about Gnawa music and it’s amazing! ❤
Such beautiful powerful music! In the Dominican Republic they have something similar. It’s called “Palo” music. This music is a tribute to the saints and people fall into a trance as well. It’s the little things that connect us.

gnawa is a music back in time .. they kind of travel all around morocco and do performances to collect food and money .. and you will find the term gnawa not only in the gnawa music but used in other moroocan music genre bcz they travel all around morocco so the are present in all cultures ... i remember when i was a kid . whenever they came and play in the bachyard of our house so we all go out and lesten and watch them .. when they are about to finish their lyrics moslty means to help them with food or money so we know they are about to finish so one of us will go back to the house bring food like sugar or bread or thea or dates and if we have it money as will .... they bring joy no matter how their one life is hard ...❤❤❤
Thank you 👍
..for shedding light, on this beautiful Music that I heard all of my Life.
I was in Essouaira about 20 years ago. Was at a restaurant watching a floor show with belly dancers and Gnawa musicians. The Gnawa brothers pulled me out of the audience and put the fez with the long tassel on my head. Everybody was amazed at how I got it going on beat with the head movements. My cousin said it must have been all the practice from listening to Hip Hop all my life.
Edit: Wow just saw Jaleel Shaw in this piece. He’s a friend of a friend and I’ve seen him play many times. Philly in the House!
proud to be Moroccan🇲🇦, I live in Chicago 🇺🇲🙏🏻
Gwnan is a nice ancient sound/genre. It is not American Blues. Period.
Thank you! Nor did it in any way evolve from this. They may SHARE certain African origins. But to imply that American Blues CAME FROM this is disingenuous to say the least. Do better.
Well know that guy in the interview corrected it. He said the blues origins were ORIGINALLY from Senegambia and Mali which 100% true. And those same music traditions migrated north to morocco
Wrong! The Blues has no connection to Africa whatsoever, no influence at all. The Blues is strictly a native Black American creation. All claims to the contrary is unproven and baseless.@@salimwillis1400
@@TheRealRobbJaywhere do blues come from
This music has nothing to do with African Americans
Gnawa music did not appear only recently, as some believe, it had been present for centuries in all regions of Morocco and particularly in the south...
In the past, authentic Gnawa groups did not use the stringed instrument called Santir. They only played with drums and castanets; their songs were sadder, nostalgic, less danceable than today.
They still exist in the rural regions of the south...
It appeared in Morocco centuries ago when Arabs ( and not native moroccans) brought thousands and thousands of slaves from subsaharan Africa
@@user-ud7ld4rf9b the slaves wasn’t brought by Moroccans arabs or not but by Europeans who used Morocco as a passage 😂 at that time, Essaouira was controlled by Portugal and the port was build by Portuguese that’s why it’s called Mogador. You all need to lear history and stop inventing and twisting as you like 😂
This brings good memories of summer vacations in Essaouira

Much love for all African descent but the discredit of African American music in America is on the rise
No discredit to African American music. This shows ties to Africa that Africa is the birthplace. Rock music is from tuareg people, country music from mugithi in kenya, reggae from east africa.

Our American Blues didn't come from Morocco's Gnawa. Slavery took the African out of us . I was born and raised on Blues and that is not Blues. Please take time and listen to some Bobby Blue Bland, BBKing and other great Blues people, because there is no comparison. You are very insulting to say that they' danice like James Brown, and Motown, that is a joke. The nerve of 60 minutes to try and give credit of FBA music to someone else. Latinos all over the globe are trying so hard to take credit for our music.

Nobody is denying Black American originality and ingenuity, they are merely acknowledging the chronological genesis and evolution of the music.
You need to stop with that chronological genesis, evolution foolishness. There is no evidence of any connection. They're making claims without proof. Correlation does not imply causation@@Afripol

Nice to see 60 Minutes recognizing this music but this only scratches the surface. I'm an American musician blessed with many African friends (Algerian, Moroccan, Ethiopian, Eritrean, Nigerian, Ghanaian and more) who I've learned from and shared stages with. As you may know, history can be told from many perspectives and there is some benefit from them all. Conversely, most telling of history often favors the people telling it. No ones historical vision is perfect. Hear as many tellings and retellings as you can and put together the truest picture.
Morocco 🇲🇦 is so old and culturally rich country 👌
That’s the beauty of music
The sound reminds me of Latin music or Blues music of the South. Our ancestors made sure to pass the culture
on through the music. Thank you for the touching video.

new moroccan modern songs started to use gnawa with modern sounds an exemple track is :
"dystinct _derba 9adiya"
"dystinct_tek tek"
Wow! Learned something new!
Must be a first seeing as how surprised you sound?
U learned a LIE
Awesome‼️. Gnawa music is mesmerizing and touches the soul! 🎼. First I’m learning of this music. It reminds me of Gospel, Soul, Blues, Jazz and other spiritual music in the Caribbean and South America. All coming from our forced displacement as African people. Our music is a medium to help to soothe and heal from hardships and miserable lives! Thanks 60 Minutes for this information ✔️🙌🏽
This music has nothing to do with Black American Freeman music. It doesn't sound the same and the instruments are completely different too... where are the horns, strings beside the one they have.. where the bass drum beside the Congo. Caribbeans speaking on Black American Freeman music it's not their culture 🤔💯
big facts. Gnawa sounds more like Indigenous tribal music than it does Delta Blues, that's why they had to get a B-list TV actor to be the "expert" lmao@@mindcontroling

❤❤❤
BUNNY!
It often seems that the deeper one digs into history, the Blacker it gets. Deep like the darkest berries.
I'm glad you just discovered Gnawi music.
Awesome
This has to be a joke right because this is nothing like African American blues, and I mean true soulful blues, everyone is always trying to steal African-American culture and somehow put it into theirs. They need to stop the cap.
I'm from New Orleans we did not get none of that from them people second line music been here
For everyone that got caught bybthe mesmerizing sounds and 6/8 rythmes, i hope you get to pay a visit to the motherland of Gnawa music Essaouira AKA Mogador, or as i like to call it, the land of love .. During the festival it is a bit packed due to the fact that it's a small village that hosts one of the biggest festivals in the whole country, and there's nothing more magical and beautiful than arriving to Essaouira one or two days before and sit and see how all these beautiful free souls keep arriving with their long dreads, big bacpacks and hippie looks !!
Thank you Morocco ❤

Tantura full documentary is what opened my eyes .
Jazz musician Randy Weston would have loved this.I saw Randy Weston perform with Gnawa musicians in Newark years ago.
as a black African who also understands the American blues experience, i did not see any connection to gnawa music. most of the performances were done by arabic artists you would find in places in the middle east with not much link to African music. and Morocco, just like much of North Africa are not fond of blacks south of sahara. much of the linkage is only through religion. very shallow documentary.
I encourage you to listen to Maalam Mahmoud Guinea and you would feel the blue ..greetings from Morocco 🇲🇦
being black African doesn't give you the right to exclude Morocco from its African roots, no matter what your experience or perception of North Africans is. the connection is undeniable whether you are able to see/hear it or not.
@sami_ek👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯💯
Morocco is found of Moroccans😂 black or withe and yes this is one of the Moroccan genre because there is many morccan music style and others like malhoun and Andalusian are related to Spain, chaabi is popular Moroccan style, Issawa is more spiritual and many others. I will say subsaharians Africans are not found of Moroccans and North Africans because you keep calling them Arabs. You need to understand Morocco is the second oldest royalty in the world and have a lot of history not just with Arabs. Native North African are not black they’re still Africans. You’re problem is you don’t like Africans who are not black and I’m not taking about the ones from European origins like South Africa. I’m taking about real North Africans
@@sami_ekthese people are all over the place. Some wants to claim Moroccan culture, some lies about the native Amazighs wanting to make them black, some call them Arabs, some call them Europeans 😂 sometimes they say Moroccans doesn’t consider themselves Africans and in the same sentence black Africans say they are not Africans 😂
Morocco has deep roots in Africa since saadiyeen dynasty to Sudan
Many musical genres will replace conservative religious styles of how you should connect to God. Gnawa will be the dominant spiritual practice in Morocco in the near future. I am a gnawi myself and the number of kids practicing or learning gnawa is insane… stay tuned

Apologies. Qasri plays a hajhouj. The guenbri Is a far smaller instrument roughly the size and shape of à tortoise shell 🙏
In the world of music, Hamid Al-Qasri is considered a mere student compared to artists who left their great mark in the world of Gnawa... and for example, the teacher Mahmoud Guinea. ✌A Gnaoua lover passed by

The strenght of the Kingdom of Morocco is to have been able to preserve a thousand years old civilization in a modern world. An open-air museum with "portals to the past". Proud of Morocco ❤🇲🇦
Come on CBS get your facts straight, African Americans in the middle passage did not come from Morocco and the musical traditions they brought with them didn't come from there either. It came from West African/African cultural traditions that are thousands of years old. And the other reality is that the American guitar originates with the Spanish guitar which in turn originates from Islamic Lutes which in turn borrowed from African lutes, which goes back thousands of years.
The slaves come from west Africa they just said that they were brought Morocco
