U all natives are Earth Angels. I am so mad for whites did to you all natives 🙏🏽✨❤️ keep it up 👍
🙏🏾🌀💎
@@clawlor777 cultural differences are to be celebrated, but thats all that is..we are one, all of humanity, learn your history, the human history, the history of the earth, the solar system, the native american culture was more in tune with this than any other culture i know of. Sucks "civilized" society was welcomed in with open arms to then rob and kill the native culture
Ya when y'all cut off your brothers cause they had dark skin huh shut up when y'all let the white man cut people off ya that happened in the 50s 60s bye the early 80s when we were driven off the rez GTFO with that chosen B's when you cut off your brothers n sisters and welcome in the white man what y'all going through is goody for you y'all brought it on yourselves
I live in Montana and one day we had a guest speaker at my high school. He was a Crow singer. I was happy when he started singing, but I looked around and realized that all of the other students were just pointing and laughing at him. It was, and still is so upsetting to me, because all of my native family members passed away and I never had the opportunity to learn about my culture. It really sucks, but now I can watch you videos and feel like I'm apart of something
It’s break my hart to hear your story, be proud over who you are and the rich culture you belong to.
Take your culture into the future and bring it over to your children.
This is real talk
Real talk
You are awesome and don’t let anyone make you think otherwise! 🙌🏽
It is these people who are truly the unfortunate ones, for they are blinded. There will always be something to learn from negative experiences if one can look and search deep enough.
I am a painter in montana. I'm white, but my heart is red. I grew up on the rez, and there is no prayer like the prayer of native american dancers, praying with their whole body an being. the definition of sweat blood and tears turned into beauty and love. God calls people like you, there is much love in what you do. And the world is waching, Go get them Bless you my friend.
Supaman gives people hope.
Paula White hope I never hear that shit again😂
IT IS GOOD BABY BELOVED I LOVE IT !!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The CREATOR bestowed him to us.
I am a 57 yr old African American with Native American roots my great grandmother was full blooded Native American I'm not trying to join an say I'm one of you but if i am allowed i wish to walk with you towards the light i truly love your message an your music keep the faith stay 💪 be well one love ✌ an blessings little brother
We natives need this. It's very healing. Thank you
Cherokee proud
Supaman, your positive message helped me through abuse, poverty, hunger.
Then it helped me grow to succeed.
Then it helped me grow compassion and forgiveness when it’s hard to do.
My elders taught “Regalia should be a reward for acting in honesty and doing good for ones self and others”
It’s good to hear he does that and feels that way about Regalia, my respect to goes out to him.... Aho!!
I have no idea if you will receive these comments so it’s up to the four winds to take them to you. I wanted to share a thought with you. My distant ancestors were tribal and my very recent ancestors were emigrants fleeing injustice and oppression. In coming to this country they were faced with prejudice and hate crimes. I have European ancestry ... you are dancing for us ALL. I am now an “elder” and thank you for what you are doing for the youth. Blessings ... Aho.
What makes you elder to you or the others may please ask!?!
Bro, I'm Arawakan Taino. I was raised Puerto Rican. I also used to be apart of the legendary Floor Lords Crew. Being a Bboy I never liked dancing for money or gimicks. I really related so much to the words and wisdom in this video. Thank you. Arawakan Tainos, Puerto Ricans were the originators of Break dancing. I know this because the Incredible Breakers are my family. Thank you brother for this video. My uncles were born in the Bronx and in the 70's and 60's and before the government did not offer help to the Blacks and Hispanics residing there. But with there ancient warrior spirits, they created Bboying aka Break dancing and Hip Hop. It became an outlet to cope with poverty and struggle. One love to all Indigenous and Aboriginal peoples. Same struggle, same spirit.
I WAS BORN in HARLEM 1961 to a BLACK FATHER BLACK INDIAN AND A IRISH MOTHER. THEY CAUGHT HELL n so did I. Three it BACK. I want to go back to the BRONX AND HARLEM A SEE IT ONCE BEFORE I LEAVE THE PLANET. IN EAST BAY CA NOW. JUST LOST MY MAN. CHILDREN GROWN. I WANT TO GO HOME.
Yo soy Boriquen...
No Bruh actually we Africanos brought it over from the mother land to Brazil. The captured Africanos practiced Capoeira FACTS!!!!. U straight tried to change Bboy history WOW!!!!
@@SiriusBMermaid it's NOT facts although PR crews played a big part in Bboying the NEVER created Hip Hop or Breakdancing Braking came from Capoeira , plz Google the word . Our ancestors brought it from the Motherland Alkebulan ie .Africa
Rap is a culture for struggle, pain, and rebellion. Natives and Black people unite in this.
And know that your work has a strong impact of those of us who are elderly and Caucasian, as well as on the young and the Native.
Same.
Hey Supaman, this person is speaking truth, I'm caucasian, and I think it's wonderful, it's a beautiful , way your impacting all races , in a kool ass way tho!
I'm glad to experience it bro , I thankyou, and sure you'll touch many...
I wish it would wake up Steve Brummler Doug Krusell Willy Krusell Ken Mainlaind
Amen,Aho,Ditto🎶🎵
My grandson is native and his father is native. I've always loved native culture and the variety of tribes and each unique culture. I consider myself blessed to have native family members. I may not be native or Ojibway but I cherish my grandson's culture. I hope he seeks his history and culture and I will support him in every way I can. His tribe is dying.
Wow! He is so beautiful! And makes me proud to be native!
So beautiful and powerful! Me and my African ancestors honor you and your ancestors for their sacrifices and survival!
THANK YOU everytime I watch my native brothers and sisters in the circle dancing I feel the hurt and pain gone for that time of the dances and being there when prayers going on that pain hurt of loosing my little brothers i dont feel it so much and can see rays of sunshine again THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE WHO DANCE
This man is a blessing to the earth.
Love you, love your work, love what you do. Keep sharing the love. You are the sun breaking through dark clouds. Shine on!
BABY IS THIS SOME OF YOUR FAMILY?? ALSO BABY I LOVE YOU YOU HELP ME ALWAYS!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘
As a Native Hawaiian - I can feel the connection of your deeds in a spiritual way of messaging humanity at its core.
This! ^
respect
My inspiration!!! Keep the faith brotha!! All the way from the WhiteMountain Apache Reservation
I know that our culture kept me away from all of the drugs and alcohol I loved dancing and going to our ceremonies.I used to attend the peyote meetings with my uncle and the sweat lodges . I left the reservation many years ago but I always stay in touch with my heritage and I always say that when this big crazy world becomes overwhelming I go a powwow somewhere and just being with my people and the drumming and the songs especially a good ok powwow song makes me ok again, our culture is definitely who we are and my experience is one of empowerment and pride of who we are as native people, I love who we are despite the bad I know the bad to but like you said when you understand the dynamics of the past then you can empathise and understand us as a people. You are a beautiful soul and I as many truly appreciate who you are, aho my brother!

All I can say is wow man. I seen you way back when I was in 8th grade. I’m 21 now. You have moved me. I have gotten in touch with my native routes and started learning our language. Honestly if it was not for supaman I don’t think I would’ve opened my eyes to all the struggles around me. Thank you supaman for everything and keep going. Diiawatchachik bro

As a non native I have the upmost respect and honor for your culture and ppl. The world would be so much better off if we lived in the old ways. I'm privileged enough to have native friends that I consider family and have been blessed to receive thief knowledge and love. I strive to walk a good path and have strong medicine. Thank you

Live for us. Brave Warriors
Your music is breaking down walls, and lifting up spirits, somewhere on this planet, every minute of every day. It has clearly grown your heart and your crafts. Big props for the hard work, and dedication to the arts, humanity, our planet, and your heritage. Someday maybe we will all be a nice shade of beige, and it will be a beautiful thing. You are like a fast-forward button, making it happen, and getting us there. Thank you.
One people.
One planet.
The music gives me the chills. How it just all goes blends. Not only is it powerful. It’s beautiful....
Ahhhhhh, Uhhhhhhh, Peace Doc...🙏
~Awesome keep going! The dance is so amazing and very beautiful!! You are a very strong and beautiful soul,the magic you share is the love from your heart very Powerful~~Kisses!!
Thank God that you have the gift of conveyance and use it to inspire love❣️😎
I saw Supaman at the Butte Festival this year, and now regularly listen to his "Illuminatives" album. I can't wait for more people to discover him. His compelling participatory live performance and style go way beyond hip hop and even music itself. Entertaining, inspiring, empowering, and yet, inclusive... This is the kind of emerging voice that the current music scene really needs to push forward! I often listen to "Itchick", and it's hard to describe the peace and inspiration this song brings to my mind.
Good job on conveying his style in such a short format!
6ixx I met him chilled when he came to standing rocke.
Amazing. Columbus didn't find America the Native Americans did and I stand with you my friend today and always Brave courageous I am 1/16 Chippewa and 1/4 Cherokee grandparents and I've always felt like the world was upside down and backwards and I've always hurt for the people so I'm glad to come across your UA-cam channel we need to help our youth all over the world thank you my brother God bless you stay strong in your journey but also pay attention and be safe and be aware especially if you go to Hollywood
Thank You! You are respected! And Loved!!!
Understanding DNA genetic imprinting, inter generational "trauma" , the impression & impact of abuse, neglect, "spiritual" eradication... not as easy to "get-over it" as the immature ignorant thinks. Great testimony, well done bro 👍🏻👍🏼👍🏽👣🔥👣
I am a super huge Supaman fan! Great respect for his journey! So happy he is a beautiful example to his and ALL people! Love that he is a true family man. His gift is from our Supreme Creator, and he shares it with all. Glad to hear of collaboration with Taboo, another fave. Can't wait!!
Great human message, wonderful regalia, amazing dancing. You have a gift!!! I'm not too impressed with choice of the rap/ hip hop genre because I feel it is not native created it belongs to another wonderful culture, the African and they also speak with their heart. I wish you would be more authentic when spreading message and use your native voice and calming chants to get message across. I'm sure the chanting in English would be unique and transparent. Our native language and character is not rough and street-like. Our native languages should sound harmonious and in tandem with nature. Hip hop and synthetic music is for other
One of my favorite artists! Much respect and love to you and to all our native American friends.
I am in my 60s I was brought up white although I’m Cherokee your music brings me joy. Thank you
What shame in tears? There are so many to cry for.
One life saved is worth it all!! Be Blessed as you go!!
The gift of music is the common thread that runs through the human animal.
This dude is good medicine.
Peace and love.
God bless Supaman 🌄
I'm so amazed & happy to hear & see your videos! It's so beautiful what you are doing to bring love & hope & keeping our native traditions alive! May you always be blessed! With you in spirit!

I am always so moved and humbled by your words, music and dancing. It is medicine that heals and that gives hope, love and connection to all that is sacred and humane.
Thank you Supaman for bringing the messages of Love and Hope from the Creator to so many lost ones!!! May you be Blessed in many ways,we need more People like you in such a troubled World 🌍.....much Love, Honor & Respect I have for you ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
This makes me cry.... to see the beautiful indigenous people celebrating life so gloriously.
Thank you for making people smile.
Thanks so very much my Brother! !! You are a voice for so many....love and peace
Inner city African Americans gave us the art of rap\hiphop. Some people have have taken this art and ran through the gutter, to each his own. But this is what I an African American who grow up listening to dougie fresh, and KRS1 saw the art to platform to be used to provoke thought and social engagement on issues that we all face in this society. I appreciate this young man!
Big heart. I needed this. Thank you
I am sorry that the Native Americans don't get the recognition they deserve.Im so sorry because Native Americans are not treated like they should be.I truly appreciate learning all I can and thankful for Supaman ,his music and the words in his music ❤
Amazing blessing to us all
I got a little bit of Cherokee blood inside these veins. Hugs
Thank goodness for your compassionate love & friendship.
You're a leader.
Wow love your story, just discovering you now. 🙏 namastè brother
Big lodge clan in da house, you are a legend in your own right, I'm so proud of you, Creator gave you the message to deliver and you ran with it, you are one of Creators most effective angels, stay on point, we all are with you as are our ancestors, thank you for what you do, the world needs you......💙💚💛🧡💜❤
SUPAMAN for president 2020
I'm proud of you brother, we need a lot more men like you!
Amazing, hope one day to see you perform!
A change you he seen yeA yea
You are doing important work. Love that you are OUT THERE telling this story, this history of the largest genocide in the history of this country.
Even though I only have 1% Native DNA, I still embrace it and the culture.
You know young Brother that I per say am not a Hip Hop/ Rap fan but you mix the 2 world's of young and old in a Good Way. 1 day you will be close enough for me to see your show. Shooting Stars travel past many places and you never know where or for how long you will be at any 1 place. You can plan but HE will change those plans if HE needs to. Sometimes you will not plan BUT then HE will put you there. No matter where you are just keep doing what it is YOU do Inspiring.
I love Supaman... Louisiana shout out.. Ever come down south again I will be there.
Same as Us Beautiful Things Are Coming Natives are Same History as Afro Americans keep Rising
So much Love and Light!! Hearts Open, Love always wins💖💎
Ahoo lil brother....great work!!
Mad love and respect to you, my brother from another mother. Your music has lifted my soul many a times from the darkest recesses of my mind and with a broken heart on the edge of the abyss. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul, for your messages of hope, of compassion, of love; for they bolster my own efforts to continue my own struggle through LIFE and help change this world for the better in every way I can. Bless you brother.
I'm so proud to be "native" and be able to say it out loud and teach my grands that...he shares this land with so many. Being native or indigenous..comes with so many things. We are one nation. Let us dance...togther. Let the ancestors guide us.
I love Supaman and all he is doing. His dancing, his rap, his music, his message. It's heart changing. I grew up in New Mexico and many of my friends were Hopi, Isleta, Navajo and I grew up loving the Native American cultures and foods, music, prayers, spirituality. I love them so much. I feel a connection. I then met my Metis husband and had a 23 year marriage with a beautiful soul until he went home to be with our Creator. I know I will see him again. I love people who connect us all together through love, care, compassion, understanding, acceptance. Peace.
Wow, what a beautiful piece about his journey and his message!
Supaman simply connects and touches _all_ downtrodden people on this planet through the universal language of music - *_HIS_* music! . . .*
Love and respect goes out to all my brothers and sisters on this small planet hurling through space! . . . 🙏
Your music helped me get out of a dark place in 2017... I was addicted to meth and heroin, alcohol... I didn't see anyone sharing anything good and I was losing hope in the world and in myself... your singing, speaking, dancing and the positivity you shared helped me get a second wind. I don't know my roots, my family is all adopted but I have always felt a strong connection to the tribes here in Appalachia where I live... I have helped fight for rights of natives, as a teen I was protesting against land agreements being violated by the local governments in the area, I always go to the local pow wows... its just always felt like home, so to see you and hear the things you said about healing really opened my eyes, and after some getting up and falling down I have 3 years and 7 months clean... I still listen to your music, and when I feel those dark clouds beginning to surround me I get reminded that I'm not fighting the fight alone against the darkness in this world. Thank you for all you do.
🌹🕊❤🥰💪🙏😁👽 Love to everyone out there and many blessings. Sincerely Jacqueline Trimm Syme Hamblen Morrison family bloodline or Jaqui Twirl. Love you Supaman I am recovering from a severe injury from a Hostage situation and he shot me in the head when I was trying to get away. I made it but still recovering and your music keeps me inspired. I want to thank you and keep it going. Sincerely Jacqueline Trimm Syme Hamblen Morrison family bloodline or Jaqui Twirl.
I am proud of my native history unfortunately even today our history our right to be proud of who we our our traditions are not notice as a culture as a right to be .I wore a tee shirt recently proud native American I am in wheelchair and older but carry the traditions taught to me by both sets grandparents 3 of which native different tribes young lady asked me bout my tee I was happy to share my history with her next thing I know she throws her drink at me .I simply reply hope that made you feel better I appreciate your voice our amazing history culture unfortunately isn't taught in schools our traditions live only if the young Native's see the pride the beautiful people whose blood runs in their veins it makes my heart so proud seeing hearing your pride in being thank you 🕊🕊
I had the blessing of meeting this man at Fort Lewis College in Durango Colorado. I sat and ate with him, from that day on I got it. We all have a purpose everyone and everything. #Blessings
I am learning to accept the strength of my ancestors after years of living in generational trauma. When I was growing up we were taught to fit in. That exposing my maternal Native ancestry, or that of my Italian immigrant father would make our lives harder. Now I call on the power of my ancestors to heal from trauma. Thank you for your words. I am very lucky to still have my mother to teach me and to have shed myself of the manufactured shame that kept me from being or knowing who I am. I embrace you.
THIS is the kind of thing Indians need to get their self respect back!! We can't legislate or buy hope, self respect, initiative, etc. It MUST be done though things like this. I've been to Pine Ridge Reservation and seen the despair, it's GOOD to see this positivity.
I wish you success, and I thank you for what you do for your people Supaman.
love your work
Safe Travels 👣 👣
I always said we need Super Heroes...i'm so relieved to know you truly are Supaman!!!
