Creativity and talent breeds timeless content. Some people with money forcing their talentless clowns on us copying and stealing content everywhere is against our mission as Africans. We should lead from the top. I bet being a musician in this era was Soo inspiring. Competing against greats is how to prosper every aspect of life.
During 1980s here in Pakistan Karachi, Nishat Cenima Played this song Yeke Yeka during intermission, and some other African songs , Although I don't unterstand language But Thank you for making me feel Happy again.
I didn't know 4 songs there but the rest mmmmm I nailed it. But to my surprise I thought maybe lucky dube will be on the list but who I'm to judge I've only lived like 2 decades so I may not know a lot of things.
Great document. This is an invaluable piece of research work on African art. Loved the unique sound, lyrics and undeniable African spirituality evident in the various sounds. God bless humanity
Missing these songs that every single African knows🤣 Shauri Yako - Super Mazembe Sina Makosa- Les Wanyika Mario- Franco Nairobi- Mbilia Bel Todii or Neria-Oliver Mtukudzi Weekend Special-Brenda Fassie
Who is still listening? Afro by Les Wanyika should have made the cut...ofcourse Yvonne Chakachaka, Tchico Tchicaya, Yellow Man. Lucky Dube was epic. Maybe part Two reloaded and we all help compile our favourites...anyways these the kind of music that lodges itself in the Soul. Asante. Thanx
Ooo my Africa those days💕💕❤️🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵 child hood.... this is the time colonizers were enjoying alot of africa resources..... Not like now they are going down!!!!!
Tabu Ley Rocheraeu Muzina and Malauya Mayoni Mbongo i didn’t know they were that popular in Africa. If you ask a person of this generation who is Tabu Ley, they don’t know especially in Zimbabwe where i come from. Anyway that a nice list but i still think Franco Luambo Makiadi was supposed to be on the list and the Zangalewa guys from Cameroun.
The song that begins at around 0:59 / 15:43 has a striking resemblance to Michael Jackson's "Wanna be starting something...", and it seems to me that MJ may have copied the beat
Magic system was big Mory ksnte _ of course then, no internet Koffi Olumide yes yes Salif Keita 💥 Mariam Makeba big artiste too Awilo very big o I dont know Joe Manuel much
Muzina is the song by legendary Tabu Ley. This guy is one of Congolese musicians who shaped the 21st century. He has more than 2000 recorded songs. Due to popularity went on to become the vice governor of Kinshasa. He is believed to have more than 90 children. Ooh and he married Mbilia Bel,another very popular female artist
@@tominowino the original song is from Tanzania but made famous by a Kenyan band so an average Kenyan will say it is theirs just like many other things including mount Kilimanjaro.
My father used to love this songs but today he his no more r.i.p papa 🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱
Rip

Salif Keita and the national anthem of Africa!!
Who else noticed that burnaboy has copied the chorus tune to “on the low” from the first song? Great music! ❤️✨
African music is purely spiritual - a distinct genre on its own
Lowkey congo was leading the music in afrika
Love these songs they brought back childhood memories
a few more that can be added to the list
Scatterlings of Africa by Johnny Clegg
Tekere by Salif Keita
Wombo Lombo by Angelique Kidjo
Pure African music is so beautiful... Melodies so sweet
been looking for that magic system song for so long 😭😭😭
I didn't know 4 songs there but the rest mmmmm I nailed it. But to my surprise I thought maybe lucky dube will be on the list but who I'm to judge I've only lived like 2 decades so I may not know a lot of things.
African themed songs...reggae is carribean
Make it 50-100 there’s just alot
Of course the usual suspects. My ancestry DR Congo toping the charts. With love from Kenya.

Great document. This is an invaluable piece of research work on African art. Loved the unique sound, lyrics and undeniable African spirituality evident in the various sounds. God bless humanity
Chembeleza njalo is one in my favorite song🤣🇧🇮🇧🇮
I remember back in the days every Saturday at 12 pm B.E.T usually played one hour of African music, the first song on this list was the theme song
Angelique Kidjo much love
joe mafela where are his likes.guys
One can Sample Magic system it's a Hit🔥
This explains life cycle, who knew Nigerian musicians then? But today they rule Africa in music, this life is just a gradual process
They rule not only Africa but the World !!!
I am white but I love that music, always have
I have never heard of some of those but I have heard Brenda Fassie, Koffi Olomide, Extra Musica, Magic System, Awilo, and Angelique Kidjo.
Thank you, I have been trying to find the first song. Nostalgia
Missing these songs that every single African knows🤣
Shauri Yako - Super Mazembe
Sina Makosa- Les Wanyika
Mario- Franco
Nairobi- Mbilia Bel
Todii or Neria-Oliver Mtukudzi
Weekend Special-Brenda Fassie
Who is still listening? Afro by Les Wanyika should have made the cut...ofcourse Yvonne Chakachaka, Tchico Tchicaya, Yellow Man. Lucky Dube was epic. Maybe part Two reloaded and we all help compile our favourites...anyways these the kind of music that lodges itself in the Soul. Asante. Thanx
SUPERB SONG
MAGIC SYSTEM
You don’t understand how long I’ve been looking for Agolo. That song rang OFF in Ghana back in the day.

Ooo my Africa those days💕💕❤️🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵 child hood.... this is the time colonizers were enjoying alot of africa resources..... Not like now they are going down!!!!!

I love Yeke Yeke.
12:31❤❤🔥🔥
To Black to Storng, Mama Africa... akpé
Thank you, thank you. I was looking for the second song - Yeke Yeke
Wowwww in first song the voice is so amazing
Tabu Ley Rocheraeu Muzina and Malauya Mayoni Mbongo i didn’t know they were that popular in Africa. If you ask a person of this generation who is Tabu Ley, they don’t know especially in Zimbabwe where i come from. Anyway that a nice list but i still think Franco Luambo Makiadi was supposed to be on the list and the Zangalewa guys from Cameroun.
Lucky cube deserves to be here
The first is the song I was looking for.
Finally i found the song
Extra Musica 😅🤟🏿
Etat-major, this whenever I hear it I got goosebumps
12:53 thank you!! I found the song I was looking for!
Lol same from Kenya
What song this is.language?
magic system made the opening, 😀😀😀 i nvr got to learn of lyrics but grew up to this
The song that begins at around 0:59 / 15:43 has a striking resemblance to Michael Jackson's "Wanna be starting something...", and it seems to me that MJ may have copied the beat
And he was sued for it.The composer is the late grand master, of Afro jazz, the late Manu Dibango.
Yeke Yeke by Mori Kante
Wanna be starting something by MJ was sampled from a different song called Soul Makoussa by another Afro jazz Singer called Manu Dibango
Track 3 I was at my teen, african music used to play during the day on SABC channel taken from channel O🇿🇦
I am looking for that song that goes like “ nai ntombi wami, fele pepele, omasefona”
With love from Namibia
Hi bro how are you
Where is Mario from Franco? Show me the Way of Papa Wemba, African Typic Collection?
you`re absolutely right. Next time I should include those and many others
Joe mafela songs are melodic i love it
3rd song is nostalgic for me from when I used go to the family parties when I was younger
This video was really helpful
Thanks a lot
3 NOVEMBER 2020👌🙌
Magic system was big
Mory ksnte _ of course then, no internet
Koffi Olumide yes yes
Salif Keita 💥
Mariam Makeba big artiste too
Awilo very big o
I dont know Joe Manuel much
Also I don't know the next 1 but sounds like P. Wemba
Anjela KIDJO VERY popular artiste x song
Muzina is the song by legendary Tabu Ley. This guy is one of Congolese musicians who shaped the 21st century. He has more than 2000 recorded songs. Due to popularity went on to become the vice governor of Kinshasa. He is believed to have more than 90 children. Ooh and he married Mbilia Bel,another very popular female artist
Afrika bomba.
Pretty nostalgic here
Thank u soooo much, been searching this song since 2015
Which one
@@nenda86 yeke yeke
Awilo
How the hell is Lucky Dube missing on this list?
I really don't know
My thought too, I was thinking like maybe apart from south africa he was just famous also in our country zambia
African themed songs...Reggae is carribean
Wow without Miriam makeba singing malaika an original Kenyan song it would be incomplete 🇰🇪🇰🇪
Makeba says the song comes from Tanzania, you are telling us it's from Kenya??
@@tominowino the original song is from Tanzania but made famous by a Kenyan band so an average Kenyan will say it is theirs just like many other things including mount Kilimanjaro.
I had to search but I finally found it
Glad I helped
My College Days 🙌❤️🤗💥🎶🎵🙏
Literally the guess the first song.
Africa nice
Where is Mory Kante?!?!? His is great! ❤️
Yeke yeke is on the list
He passed away in 2020.
