WODE MAYA YOU ARE THE MOST WELL LOVE & KNOWN U TUBER IN THE WORLD ❤ WHO AGREES ?💯❤🇰🇳😃
Hi Wode Maya I’m Reginald Gale I can say I’m your friend, I’m a 73 years old Barbadian who lives in Florida USA. I have been watching you for a long time my wife thinks you’re my son, I saw you when you were in Barbados Jamaica and the other island, please keep doing the good work, love you guys your wife Miss Truty is SPECIAL…… You’re in NEW YORK at this time❤❤you’re having a good time in NEW YORK..
he should visit you too ,
@wodemaya next time you come to the USA you have to have a Black American who is from NYC, who knows the 400 year history of Black Americans in NYC, and they will take you to Weeksville Heritage Center, which is a museum in Brooklyn. Weeksville, was one of America's first free black communities during the 19th century. They would have also told you the first commodity sold on Wall Street was enslaved Africans(our ancestors) and they would have told you about the Black community called Seneca Village which was a 19th-century settlement of mostly African American landowners in the borough of Manhattan in New York City, within what would become present-day Central Park.They took their land and built central park over it. They also would have taken you to the Malcom X Center, etc... I know you were not there for long, and of course everyone wants to show you around lol, but respectfully the 400 year history is something the African migrants here in this video don't know about, so they could not tell you, and that's understandable, they were giving you their version of NYC and there is a place for that as well. But definitely next time you come back you have to get with one of your Black American viewers that are a native New Yorker for generations who knows the Black history of NYC to really tell you the full range of information on our people in the New York City.
This.
I'm travelling the whole world courtesy of MAYAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!
😂😂😂
me too
In the same flight ✈️ 😅
@@meshackkibiwot338 🤣🤣🤣 from 254 to the world looooooool
You had a great gentlemen showing you around NYC. I can tell he loves NYC, Africans, and the diaspora. Believe it you are uniting us all.
Thank you. It was my great pleasure to assist our brother Wodemaya for the short time he was here. Bless up.
What the man said around the slave monument really got to me….We can’t fail our ancestors, they put up a good fight..We must grow out our mentality and conditioning and take our destiny into our own hands
I'm an African American and I have never had the opportunity to leave the country. Every time I watch one of your videos I feel like my soul is healed. I grew up around friends who are from different countries or whose parents are from different countries. They know so much about the culture of their ancestors. Slavery barred me from having this same relationship. When I watch your videos it does something special. Keep it up bro!
I was sooo happy to see you in CNN today. I felt like a proud mother!! Keep doing what you doing ❤🎉 Congratulations for all your achievements! Please never change.
Wow can you give me the link to the CNN staff.
Link please
Just a random Vlog in New York 😂
Its a lot of mentally ill people moving around the city and trains brodie...just pay attention but your good besides that
Cool I will visit new York one day
Wode are you going to the African American Museum in Washington D.C. ?
I see you... I hope you return to see other parts and mindsets of ours. Perhaps you might discover some of our business owners in various industries. (just a tip) because most of our Heritage was forbidden over generations so it has been wiped out but Africa lives in us and our hearts. Unbuntu (I think that's the spelling) hahaha
Random though but very very educational…. Thanks for sharing always 🤝
For those of you in Africa, take note of the stress and sadness in the faces of the Africans in NY. Life is HARD there! To work outside in the cold and it wasn’t too cold in the video! What the man in the beginning said is TRUTH!
Not everyone, some of us with great careers in tech enjoy life in the US and back home. It depends with your circle, most of the people I know are doing good, maybe it is because we met at college, so most educated africans tend have better opportunities, especially if you are educated in the right filed.
@@tomaramash9949 if you get there very young and your parents went through the fire, then you have had an advantage. If you are in your 20s or older coming to the states on your own, then it’s harder! I’ve known many Africans who come to the states and have been homeless and struggling for a while! No one dares let people back home know about the struggles! Some people are built for it others are not. You have to let people know! So you mean to tell me you’ve gained all you have with little to no struggle? Yes some people are living well but more than that are struggling!
Most people wouldn't even bother to travel outside if they were living comfortable lives in Africa. If your leaders can't even control inflation and the currency exchange rate depreciation for people to live a decent and comfortable lives then why won't people travel abroad to seek greener pastures. It's very sad because unfortunately things aren't even getting better
@@PhilemonAnsah yes. Even so, for the people who believe that money grows on trees in the west, educate yourselves to the realities since family or friends abroad won’t reveal their truth.
One of the best pieces of journalism I’ve seen in years. It captures the people of New York so perfectly.
I cant stop being amazed by this mans now GLOBAL LEGACY. Absolutely incredible!!!
Me too!🎉 i am so proud of you of him even though we do bot know each other
Wede! I've grown up in NY. My father was a diplomat. NY is my second home, that is why I love America the beautiful.
When, when, how, and for whom? Do you think the oppressed and suppressed Afrikan Americans, those whose ancestors were stolen from their homeland, brought to this land, forced to work and labor for europeans for free for 246 years; their descendants lynched, burned, who had their communities burned and destroyed, their people experimented on, their neighborhoods infested with drugs and guns, poverty, discrimination that to them, america is "the beautiful?"
Wode is the definition of famous. Everywhere he goes, he is known. Keep living your best life my dude!
The cost of advertising in Times Square can range from $5,000 to over $50,000 per day, depending on the type of ad, its length, and the number of props needed. For example, a small digital billboard (8 ft by 12 ft) can cost as little as $4,500 per month. A 15-second ad on one of Times Square's big screens can cost $500 for 20 plays, or $150 for a photo to run for 15 seconds per hour for 24 hours. A 15-second clip on an 18,000-square foot LED display costs about $40.
THIS BROTHER, IS TELLING YOU GUY'S IN AFRICA, THE REAL TRUTH LIVING IN AMERICA! THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS THE AMERICAN, DREAM! THE AMERICAN, DREAM IS ONLY WHAT YOU SEE IN MOTION PICTURES ON THE SILVER SCREEN PROMOTED IN HOLLYWOOD! WHAT'S GOOD MY BROTHER, WODE 🇺🇲
@stedwatts1541, great point my brother.
@@dmode1535🙌🏽🙌🏽
So we should go to Europe?
He dropped some truth 😮 though few will believe it, take heed dear brothers snd sisters in Africa
Yes! That's why all Brothers and Sisters in America should return to the motherland!
Wow! 'no place like home'. I love that statement. Thats why I love my country❤❤❤🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦♥️♥️
Maya, sincerely you are making us proud.
I wish our political leaders will do the right things to make Africa a choice destination for all around the world.
From Bayelsa State Nigeria 🇳🇬.
Great video! Glad you made it to America. I was hoping you would delve more into the Black history of America. You should come back and explore different regions of the U.S., perhaps try some black american food, live music and more. There is not only Hip Hop that we created. Washington D.C., New Orleans have their own native Genre of music, amongst the many other genres of Black American culture. Black history is RICH in the U.S. of America and to really appreciate Black American culture you have to explore our history. Your visit to New York only captured a minute portion of it. Even could have been explored much more (although you were time constraints). Hopefully you will return and follow suggestions from some of your American viewers of where to visit. My suggestions, Washington, DC, New Orleans, Lousiana, Southeastern Coast (Home of Gullah Geechee people). Memphis, TN, Houston, TX, Detroit, MI...many more.
@wodemaya this 💯
Thanks for mentioning the Gullah Geechee people. Come to Charleston, SC!!!
Hopefully your next stop in America will be to visit more black American establishments.
Yes I want to see that .....like the Southern States.
Agreed, Wode Maya need to see the history Black Americans have maintained in America and their contributions to the world in inventions.
I hope not he has seen enough of you in Ghana
@@faculty891 Some people just want attention, by insulting others. WOW
That will never happen
Wode Maya To The World, Everywhere he goes people recognise him, The ❤❤❤ is great, Continue the good work 👍

It seems shocking that so many people that lives in America watches your UA-cam Channel which seems amazing. I am very impressed with that and as everybody is telling you to keep up the good work and I also say the same. This tells you that soon non-Black people will start watching your videos as people outside Africa are already watching your content. Keep it up Wode Maya👍👍👍
Greetings from Dubai, I’ve learnt a lot from this video today… big up Wode Maya and big up to that elderly driver for the education 🤝
One Africa, one Love and one people
Young man you re doing Gods work. People all around the world follow your videos because not only are you entertaining but you teach something about every place you go. The gentleman driving you around was not only knowledgeable about NY but passionate about our people. Thank you for what you and your wife are doing. Hope to see you in Philadelphia,PA USA one day.
Watching you from Trinidad 🇹🇹 Relocated from the big apple NYC 17yrs ago back to my homeland T& T🇹🇹🇹🇹But I still love New York! Enjoy your trip stay safe! Love you Wodemaya ❤safe travel back✈❤🙌🏾
IF YOUR'RE AN AFRICAN AND YOU DON'T KNOW WODE MAYE, THEN YOU'RE NOT YET ON THE INTERNET....LOTS OF LOVE FROM GH
Hello Wode Maya! I am a huge fan of you! I have been wondering if one day it's possible you do a video on the Gullah and Geechie people in the deep south!!
Your driver is so passionate about the development of Ghana ❤
He's a former BBC journalist. He left for the UN after working there for many years.
Yes, I am. Thank you.
@@benmalor2833 you're welcome
Thanks for showing us New York 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾🇯🇲
A small and munute portion of new york, not new york!
Can we get some local sponsors to show Wode how we live down South? Show him how we live in the country, ride horses, go fishing, hunting, and he most certainly need to visit New Orleans, Texas, the real Florida, Mississippi, and the Mid-West, etc....
They would never do that.. He and his wife have a agenda when they come to America 🤷🏾♀️
I would love that for real. And him meeting thr gullah geeches
So trueee!!! I live in New York and I work, work, work!!! I am a teacher, this place is NOT easy!
Come let's go to our Motherland for real peace!!!
Have a billboard about your channel at Times Square. A lot of people need to unlearn and learn about Africa specifically and the world in general. Your travel videos are very impactful .
Parents born in raising Liberia, West Africa!
I’m Born and raised in Brooklyn! Currently living in Hawaii! #WINNING!!!! 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🗽🗽🗽🌺🌺🌺
Your Tourguide is an amazing man.When he spoke about the slavery memorial l felt that ...
Thank you. I feel deeply passionate about this. We must learn. Too many are refusing to learn and apply the lessons of history.
Watching from Nairobi 🇰🇪
Its nice to see these smart beautiful African people in NY.
An absolutely fantastic video, a great culmination to your Americas trip. Congratulations Wode Maya🎉 stay blessed brother. You doing it 💯😎🔥
We pray for a good leadership because no place like home. 0:08
Great to see African Brothers from all over showing love and respect to each other. Wode Maya you really are an Ambassador. You are the Muhammad Ali of travel. (RIP) The Greatest of All Time!❤❤❤❤
Your favorite boy In Zambia 🇿🇲 is the house
Love you Wode Maya,From Philadelphia by the way of Brooklyn NY. If you get a chance to come again please go to the outer boroughs. You'll find people that love you and Trudy and watch all your videos. Real diversity in the outer boroughs.

YOU'RE NOT ONLY MAKING VIDEOS. YOU'RE DOING WAY MORE THEN THAT!! YOU'RE UNITING ALL AFRICANS BACK TO THE MOTHERLAND, BECAUSE OF YOUR VIDEOS, SOME HAVE RELOCATED SOME HAVE VISITED , BUT ONE THING THAT I SEEN, EVERYONE THAT HAVE VISIT THE MOTHERLAND SAID THAT THEY FELT A CONNECTION TO THEIR ANCESTRAL 32:34 HERITAGE. YOU! ARE! THE! BEST! GOD BLESS YOU ALL FOR YOUR HARD WORK!! 🙏🏿 ❤️ 🙌🏾 💯🤜🏾🤛🏾
Come along, we are all here to receive u home! Don't think or wait too much, it's not that hard to plan and come. A passport, a ticket, and a little spending money for about a week, that's all.
Welcome to New York I just missed you
Wode Maya i have seen you on "CNN African voices" keep up the good work 👌🏾👍🏾
Wode Maya, next time in New York go to The African Burial Ground in Manhattan. This is where the first Africans who built Wall Street, fought in the Revolutionary War and much more. This is African American History, glad that you had Black History (Harlem) while visiting the west in your video for once. Old New Amsterdam from the early Dutch..👏🏿
Watching from Saint Lucia. Only my favorite village boy could give such great video of the city NEW York. Blessed love❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
When the Brits conquered New York , simultaneously Fort York in Axim , in the Westen Region of Ghana was conquered by the Dutch .. So Fort York was renamed Fort Amsterdam , whiles New Amsterdam was renamed New York.. @jaycameron has a video on it ..
Love from Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
My fiance is from Ghana she is from Winneba her mother is from Kumasi.
Wode Maya is a celebrity, looks sharp 1luv ❤ watching from Boston, where lots of Africans lives 😊🙏🏽
Thanks Family ❤Good Leadership is on the WAY to STAY in the Holy Land at HOME 🇿🇦
Yes, that man is speaking the truth, living abroad is not an easy life. You working for the Tax man it best to stay in your own country and do what you are doing to the best of your ability and build up your own wealth in your country. I never know hard until I leave my country to live abroad.
Great Job WODE MAYA: Your Devotion, Hardwork and Resilience inspires me and Alot of Your AfricaN Brothers and Sisters. Keep-Up. Ayuk Benedict from Germany.
MAYA here is the answer to your question.
This bronze statue honors George M. Cohan's contributions to musical theatre. Cohan, a composer, playwright, and performer, was nicknamed "the man who owned Broadway," with hits including "You're a Grand Old Flag" and "Give My Regards to Broadway."
😂 oh my Gooooooodd!! What are the chances?! Accra restaurant is right next door to my apartment! I wish i knew u were coming, would have invited u upstairs for an interview with me, on Ghanaian living in bronx NY. Aaww!! Im glad u had this man who drove and brought u to the right places, considering your limited time. The young lady u talked to at the Accra restaurant is my favourite called Mariam. U should have let us know u were coming.
Sorry oooo. Sorry. Next time, please.
#Wode Maya for Africa Ambassador and the America Dream
Watching from Ghana keep it up brother God bless you good work
Thank you for taking me to New York and I have learnt alot, Development is needed indeed in Africa. I felt like I was there walking with you. You saved me from the flight. We love you from Uganda. GOD BLESS YOU. YOU ARE A LIGHT TO AFRICA
This episode was so worthy to watch. Specially the part of discovering New York in terms of its foundation, in of its history related to slavery. Thank you to this gentleman who took you around.
Maya you're a super star now, everywhere you go. Imagine in New York everyone knows you. Keep it up
WODE MAYA is worldwide! Welcome to the U.S Glad to see you visiting New York and ppl are recognizing you.
There's a Ghana restaurant on 123rd Street and Adam Clayton Powell in Harlem New York what's the Gary and the jollof rice and the chicken and the black rice delicious it's called Accra restaurant
Hey wod maya I love you brother
Not love like women but love you like brother and brother
I am from Africa

Excellent video wode maya ,africa to di world...🎉one love fr jamaica
Wode Maya, am watching you from Zimbabwe. Thank you for showing us New York City. I also want to commend you for the Good work, i just hope all the Africans will get the opportunity to come back to the African Continent and reunite one day.
Wode!!!!! Next time you're here, do a meet-up. Please have Ms. Trudi accompanied you. You're loved.
Great vlog, Maya! Thank you for sharing. It's deeply moving to see the monument dedicated to the slave trade, with the poignant reminder, "lest we forget."
👍🏿👍🏿 and round of applause 👏🏿👏🏿 to WODE MAYA! Keep it up my fellow Pan Africanist. 👍🏿👍🏿You are making the spirit of Pan Africanism stronger 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿. Watching this video from Zambia 🇿🇲.
Enjoying seeing you getting all the Love ! Yes ,we watching All the way from Houston, Texas 😊! ❤❤❤❤❤
i love the KOFI ANNAN bit. MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PERFECT PEACE. GOD BLESS YOU @WM
Wode Maya, great content. You are absolutely making a different. I watched Larry Madowo interview you for CNN. Keep putting Africa front and center.
First time seeing Wode Maya in shoes🤣🤣🤣 New York has humbled you, Maya.😂😂
I cried to see the monument. We know the saying here in Jamaica, "Lest We Forget".
We must not forget. Never forget. Never
@WODEMAYA I remember you were the first UA-camr to visit Haiti and always talk positively about HAITI. I appreciate all that you are doing, you opened to door for all the other UA-camrs in Afrika and started the Blaxit movement and showing Afrika to us you can't visit. Keep up the great work! Much love!🥰
There’s an African restaurants called Lagos nearby
New York is world of its own. Every time I drove in manhattan , I got intimidated. Thanks, brother WODE MAYA, you’re awesome!
I love driving in the city! It’s so exciting! Just crank up your music and go!😊
I cant wait to touch ground in Africa. Ghana. South Africa, egypt and ethopia... one day. My ancestors are calling me home
The President of Angola came to USA & was giving out tickets to Angola. The ancestors between August 20,1619- _1700s was from Angola and Congo & then after they kept uniting & fighting back, that’s when ppl decided to stop enslaving Central Africans & get west Africans from all over, so they couldn’t speak the same language
The funny thing is hot as hell out here today it's hot as hell out here today you missed a good weather
Wode Maya, Canada 🇨🇦 next please 🙏
This is a great educative video. That man who took you to the museum is loaded with data 🎉🎉🎉🎉
It was important for me to show him that monument. Thank you.
I am in America but i am learning sbout it on your channel Wode! You are a legend 😮
Thanks for showing us around the world maya🙏🏼🙏🏼
Big up Wode Maya I sorry I did not meet u in N.Y.C . But I glad u experience a little of the City Nuff Love To U And Ur Beautiful Wife 🙏❤️
I will ALWAYS support WodeMaya because every video i learn something. Hid videos are just interesting, he's actually a world traveler who shares the world with his audience factual comentary. Unlike that guy from Kenya who claims to travel the world but is still inpressed with how the way a toilet works.
Africa for Africans at Home and Abroad.... Marcus Garvey Wide Maya go to Harlem and see the original New York
The Pepsi guy ain't lying
Haha Haha 😅 why u said so
Speak for yourself. I work from home and make more than 200k. I learned English 6 years ago and not even a citizen yet. Stop talking nonsense
@@zigtech5799 well, it depends on ur occupation 😌 high earners tends to enjoy living in America 🇺🇸
@@zigtech5799 You offered us no proof. But either way, %95 of Americans don't make that and most are truly struggling.
@@zigtech5799 speak for your self, for overwhelming majority is not the case.
Something enter me, when our beloved woman says isn't Wode Maya bro you are blessed Ghana need to celebrate your efforts watching u from Dubai wonderful wrk bro
Thanks for showing us around NYC.
So you're in my city man and I miss you. I'm in the city now. I live in NJ but come to NYC every weekend.
Glad to see you get to Harlem. It's changing, becoming gentrified, there's good and bad in that but it loses its flavor. The raised road is probably the FDR drive. Wonderful to see so many Africans in NYC and others that recognize Wade Maya. Your guide is wonderful. Really moving trip to UN. I used to work two blocks from there in the 1990s.
Times Square is just where tourists go. Times Square is where you can go to a Broadway show and fight the crowds to get to your theater. George Cohan is a playwright. Big figure in show biz.
I wish you had more time in the city. I would recommend you take the 7 train to 74th St. and walk around Roosevelt Av. Jackson Heights. Why, because it is the most culturally diverse neighborhood in New York City and very interesting. It's not touristy either. Go to Eastern Parkway in Brooklyn. Big Caribbean culture there But take the subways, it's the real New York City culture down below.
I was born in Jamaica Hospital! But that looks like a new building and location. They've expanded.
Come back, man. Come back.
Thank you, Bro. Wodemaya was just passing through, to buy some equipment for his expanding work, and did not have time on his side. Thank you for your educative words here. Yes, we were driving on the FDR.
Welcome to my city.
The man said it all , no where like home and yes our leaders are not helping hmmmm hopefully it get better 😊
Ben Dotsei Malor is really a wise and educated man. I love your videos, Maya. Thank you! ❤
Thank you for the kind words. May GOD help build a truly strong and united Africa in our lifetime.
I love this content. I have lived in NYC in the Bronx for about 13 years, but I have not been able to explore all these places .
My only regret is you didn't meet Twene Jonas. I believe you have your own reasons but for me it would have been more interesting.
Glass nkoa😂😂😂😂
Welcome to New York Maya! I love New York!!! But no place like home.
Cool vibes watching from the Dominican Republic
I have learned so much from, Watching your videos. Thank you for all you do.. because of you I am learning about Dr.PLO Lumumba. His words r powerful. Keep up your good work. Continue Freeing black people mind so we can belive in ourself. We have what it takes to make Africa / BLACKS and the Caribbean GREAT. YOU R THE NEW LEADER. THANK YOU
I actually love this guy. WodeMaya long life and move forward from Djibouti 🇩🇯
