you can recognize the influence it has on blues and rock n roll but also Latin American sounds like cumbia and merengue. You can also hear the influence of the techno loop repetitions
@@radinhodepilha42Black Americans had no connection to Africa in the era of Blues music dude. There were no media apparatus that was shown on any plantation in the South that we could’ve been inspired by west African music. FOH 😂
When the Kora player just loses it you can tell that he really really feels it. It isn't just music to him it's more and as a musician I really love seeing that. He really is feeling the music so spiritually here it looks like. This to me is WAY better than any mainstream artist in the USA or the K-Pop scene and we need more of this to be seen, shared and kept alive all around the world.
@@mixmastercj100 it's most likely the name that appears at the beginning of the video however there's lost of great music like this and other cultures from all over the world on here. CageHausen Records has a great playlist of music from around the wod found on UA-cam
I'm Mandingo ethnically so this here is literally my culture. You're absolutely correct. I remember visiting my pops' village and they often have a ceremony when a foreigner visits. I remember it feeling surreal, almost scary for me as a kid. It felt vibrational. This is so much more than music. It IS spiritual as you said. When OG hits the footwork he's most definitely in trance. It reminds me of James Brown/Michael etc. Thank you for appreciating this.
@@ld2469 you are most welcome. This type of music speaks so much to my soul. Anytime I hear an traditional music from some culture or tribe in the world it speaks to me WAY more than anything else.
I keep coming back to this video. As an American I can hear the direct lineage from this music to delta blues. The American blues and spiritual music is steeped in suffering and sorrow; it's bittersweet to hear it descended from such lively and happy music. And this went on to inspire almost all the popular music we hear in the world today.
Mande Simbonw! There is a wealth of wisdom, history and tradition in the words, music and movement of these men. Thank you for posting this. You've done something very valuable by posting this.
wow the way these guys move - so ... amazingly fluid, gingerly, delicate, fun, alive, everything! the music and the movement makes me so happy - this music does something healing
Wonderful music. I believe this is a separate tradition from that of the griots/jeli. This is music of the hunter's/donso societies. Thank you for sharing this performance.
Rap, Hip-Hop began in NYC in the 1980s, which unlike Chicago or LA has a big caribbean population...Rap came out of the Jamaican dancehall tradition...see this track from 1970s Jamaica...especially around 17:00 ua-cam.com/video/_JRS_-XCHlc/v-deo.html
Wrong. Carribeans did not introduce rap to us. Number one dancehall hit the scene in the 70's. Black Americans were rapping since at least the 1920's. ua-cam.com/video/T2uml6QwNtA/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/L0VTxSaIMAY/v-deo.html. Secondly if we wanna get really honest Black Americans are the forefathers of ska and and rock steady which were the precursors to reggae." After World War II, Jamaicans purchased radios in increasing numbers and were able to hear rhythm and blues music from Southern United States cities such as New Orleans by artists such as Fats Domino and Louis Jordan." Chen, Wayne (1998). Reggae Routes. Temple University Press. "In the late 1950s deejay toasting was developed by Count Machuki.[2] He conceived the idea from listening to disc jockeys on American radio stations. He would do African American jive over the music while selecting and playing R&B music." Lloyd Bradley. This is reggae music: the story of Jamaica's music . ISBN 978-0802138286. So you have it backwards. Jamaicans didn't influence us Black Americans but we influenced them with our Jazz and RnB. So unless you can cite me a source of Jamaicans rapping before the 1920's I rest my case.
My dad told me that music comes from the heart because you can feel and sometimes hear the sound of your own “heartbeat”. Makes you want to pound your chest, dance and sing. Makes you feel alive, litteraly. There’s a reason why people in nursing homes suddenly spring alive when they hear music they grew up with.
Bc the blues didn’t jus start inna 1920s outta nowhere. Even early blues musicians a tell u dat. Ma Rainey herself said the blues always been n she knew wtf she was tb. Guaranteed alotta the music our enslaved ancestors use to play on the banjo n fiddle would most deflee be categorized as “the blues” now.
this video is not griot music. it's donso music. the brotherhood of initiated donso and donsoya in general is said to predate castes which includes griot djeliya etc.
@@justanaveragemuslim5013 yes. donso is a caste that's not tied to any particular ethnic group but part of greater Mandingue. Griots/jeli are Mandingue as well.
can somebody explain me expecificaly , why you assosiete this music with blues , i have to do a school worck with this and i know very little about music
I can hear where American Blues comes from. Fascinating!
Wow so proud of my African roots. This is the forefather of the blues! Thought we were just cut all the way off. Guess not! YAY!
and rap
This video was made long after the invention of Blues in America. These guys heard it & were influenced by American music.

The West African influence on American music is so obvious. This sounds so bluesy.
Yep. My African heritage.
Yes this is the contribution of my people.
dudeya
The people in Latin America were mostly bantu, central Africans.
your right man mad
Love this music. My favorite all time band Pink Floyd draws heavily from blues
The foundations of gnawa music...

This gives me goosebumps I love its like Muddy Waters singing

It's sad that people like this in West Africa were stripped of everything they have and used as slaves. Their heritage still lives on
Niger didn’t end slavery until 2003; so some of it is self inflicted.
@@jeffreyhughes7107 cmon Jeff, such a beautiful vid let’s not soil the vibe
@@londonmmc I was feeling the vibe until Melo brought up that tired story but you’re right, let’s enjoy it.
YES!!! I wanted to find a performance of a griot story to show to my drama class. This is WONDERFUL! I only wish I knew what they were saying.
Man, the guy on the left is getting down! Love it.
This is beautiful. Pure Art...
Meanwhile on Ig they arguing who created hiphop. I keep saying Griot! No one is interested in their roots, just bragging rights..
🇲🇱 Mali West Africa

Muito bom pessoal! A arte de ser um Griots nunca morrerá

I wish it can go back
There’s no way in hell the blues musicians of the 1920s had ever heard anything like this, yet they sound so similar.
My dad told me that music comes from the heart because you can feel and sometimes hear the sound of your own “heartbeat”. Makes you want to pound your chest, dance and sing. Makes you feel alive, litteraly. There’s a reason why people in nursing homes suddenly spring alive when they hear music they grew up with.
