When Fiji was in his prime 20 years ago, that man could sing, dance, and work the entire stage for 60+ minutes, no breaks. Wish people could see how great a performer he was.
being in a fiji concert when he starts singing this song is UNREAL! gives you goosebumps, especially because everyone knows all the words! he’s one of the best live performers i’ve ever seen!
To be honest. Fiji is the one that all Polynesians artists look to for inspiration for their music today. He is a legend in our community, representing all of Polynesia with his powerful voice since the 90s. We've all grew up listening to him. You should really look into his music😊 you won't be sorry.

Fiji paved the way for a lot of young Polynesian artist. EVERY Polynesian knows him. Nothing but love for Fiji ❤. Thank you for listening to him. You’ll need to listen to Sosafina…. You won’t understand the words but the music and singing is beautiful.
All the vocals, the highs, the “backup singers” are all one man Fiji he’s Him for setting the platform for all Polynesian artists. Love from Hawaii. Happy birthday 🎉🎂
I believe his real name is George Veikoso? He is a lagend in the vast Pacific Ocean! Fiji, Bradda IZ, SpawnBreezie, and quite a few more Polynesian artists were so famous from the 80s but the marketing of their music had been ignored. Now. Iam just copy some of those legendary bits and pieces and the world is in awe!! But for us, they're our oldies. If Bradda IZ ever had the chance to sing in one of those reality shows, they might have taken the mike away because he doesn't need it. That's how powerful that angelic tone of voice is.....love the reaction KF!
Mahalo for sharing the love!! Glad you’re enjoying our island music!! There’s so much more out there you need to listen to.😊 Iam is really spreading Aloha to everyone through his voice, smile and his kindness!!
Fiji is our Poly Bob Marley. Even JBoog said that one time. You’ll love every song he has. You’ll Never be disappointed. The voice, the lyrics, the tune 🔥 🔥 🔥
I like how this guy reacts to these jams. Also, I wish this song was only 15 years old, cuz I’d still be in my 30’s 😂. This timeless classic is almost 30 years old. Bruddah Fiji has definitely made enough jams y too have a constant rotation on my iPods and iPhones. He’s influenced so many Polynesian artists for generations to come.
Wow, I'm a little shocked seeing you reviewing Josh Tatofi and Fiji. I hope the love that Iam is getting will bring awareness to island music. This is pretty exciting. J Boog had some popularity on the mainland with his Let's Do It Again, but then it seemed to die out. Maybe check him out too. Much aloha to you.
Bro! that is the number 1 voice of Hawaii, All of the harmonies and the high note is him. Humble, friendly, and so much Aloha!! Everyone loves this braddah!
ALOHA 2 YOU.. THIS IS MY GOOD FRIEND AND BRADDAH FROM BACK HOME IN HAWAII.... WE USED 2 JAM ISLAND MUSIC 🎵🎵🎵🎵 BACK IN THE DAY... MISSING THIS BRADDAH FIJI IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE WE TALKED OR SUNG SONGS TOGETHER... MISS THOSE DAY'S... NOW I LIVE HERE IN NORTHERN CAMBRIA PENNSYLVANIA... AWESOMENESS SHARED HERE BIG TIME MAHALO 'S... THANK YOU... ALOHA.. WINSLOW...
Lol. All the vocals and the production is just 1 guy. His name is “Siaosi Veikoso” aka Fiji aka F1J1. he’s half Tongan abd Fijian. Raised by Samoans in Hawaii. He embodies the contemporary Polynesian reggae genre. He’s a legend. Keep up the good work toko.
Fiji the GOAT! does his own runs and backup singing for majority of his songs. You just opened a whole can of worms with FIJI Josh Tatofi and Maoli so far. They have many great originals.
This song brings back so much memories 😂. You should watch him live and see all of us islanders sing along with him…it’s FIRE and will definitely give you goosebumps.
Fiji is a patriarch of moving of uniting the South Pacific music industry all in one. He promotes and delivers in all his songs and platforms. Love all his music and what he stands for….a legend and more!
Shot Out to Fiji!!!! Tongan from NorCal that listened to you from the get!! Love U Fiji!!!! Bless you!!!! Thank you for your reaction😊 you took me back when I first heard this song! Thank you 😊
Fiji is a legend all his music is 🔥 🔥🔥 and that’s him hitting the hi notes..that’s what island music do to you makes you wanna groove.thank you for supporting the island music and happy birthday 🍻🤙🏽
👏👏👏 best song to introduce yourself to Fiji...that album right there whoooo takes me back to high school....the GOAT of island reggae. HAPPY BIRTHDAY fellow TAURUS ♉️ cheers to many more years.
Mahalo Nui Loa Braddah! we as hawaiians appreciate your enthusiasm and vibe when it comes down to our childhood song and our culture! love it! god bless you 🫶🏽
Fiji is such a staple in Polynesian music! This is one of my favorites, he has so many great ones hard to choose a favorite. I’m excited everytime you react to a new Polynesian artist. Makes me so happy to see everyone showing so much appreciation for our culture! Can’t wait for the next, keep ‘em coming! ❤
Mahalo plenty, for sharing our island vibe. Fiji concerts are always sold out! He's definitely another legend from the islands. He's got so many hit songs. Happy Birthday to you! Have a great one! 🤙🏽🥳
You are so sweet and funny! 😂 I love listening to you! It makes me feel so good by the fact that you are digging into our Polynesian roots and the vibes you get from checking out our music. Much love to you and all that you do! God bless! ❤
I'm of native Hawaiian descent and live on Kauai. Grew up with this music, Polynesian music, Hawaiian music, surprised that many haven't heard our music. I'm glad it's getting out there cause yall missing out.
I know the bass player who recorded this music, my man Bully Soares. Fiji is such a great vocalist. Thank you for reacting to this. We appreciate you diggin our Poly Music
And there's still guys like Josh Tatofi, Adeaze, groups like Tone 6 and now Iam from American Idol to add to the list of amazing PI singers. Love this Fiji song!
Love that you’re enjoying the world of Polynesians lol growing up at all family gatherings this was one of the songs always played. Just good vibes and good times. Like you said, drink in hand and girl with you lol. All love famili
I’m so happy that Hawaii artists are getting love, even the older classics like Fiji. You should react to Ekolu (you probably heard Iam’s version which is heavily influenced by Ekolu), Three Plus, Maoli, Anuhea, Common Kings, Rebel Souljahz, The Green, Pau Hana, J Boog, Kimie Miner, B.E.T., Natural Vibrations, Kapena, and Iz of course. I’m probably missing some lol but just check any of these artists out 😊
It's only a matter of time till brother man is listening to some OGs like Uncle Gabby Pahinui, Loyal Garner, Kaleo O Kalani, Hui Ohana, Peter Moon etc. 😆🔥
Love the reaction, been listening to this golden classic hits of Fiji since early 90's..Big love from another fijian man from the The Republic of Fiji Islands (679) One Love Brass. Pasifika Love.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I enjoy your reviews and subscribed yes I did’ FIJI is one of the Polynesian Legends of Island Reggae Music. Originally from the island of Fiji but raised in Hawaii by Samoan and Tongan families. So he’s got Al the Polynesian blood in him lol. FIJI WATER IS DA BEST!! So all the back vocals and singing on his songs are Al him! He’s very talented and has a great ear for harmonies and is known for his vast range in vocals and hits those high falsetto notes that are unreachable! Great Polynesian artist, great legend for the Polynesian people. Thanks again for re keeping his song and bro he has so many more hits n music that will blow you away. Have a great day!!
Happy Birthday bro and thank you for showing us Poly’s some love. I definitely suggest you come down to for a concert for one of our local artists. In fact, Maoli, is having a concert on July 7th-8th at the Waikiki Shell! He’s a newer local artist and he has some songs that DEFINITELY needs to be on the mainstream. Look up the song “Jealous” from him.
Happy bday my brotha and love to see you jamming to island music because there is a lot of underrated singers out there . Much love n hope yu had a great day !!
If only the world knew about Polynesian Artist! I’m telling you the world is missing out! 🇫🇯🇼🇸🇹🇴🇦🇸🇳🇿🇨🇰🇹🇻
So true if only they knew
Fiji is Melanesian 🇫🇯🇸🇧🇵🇬🇻🇺
Fiji is Fijian not polynesian
🇹🇰
@@jay9ikira738 he's 1/2 Fijian & 1/2 Tongan so technically he's half polynesian
When Fiji was in his prime 20 years ago, that man could sing, dance, and work the entire stage for 60+ minutes, no breaks. Wish people could see how great a performer he was.
When I was living in Vegas he always had concerts out there and he use to tear it up on the stage
In da Pacific Island community, FIJI is a LEGEND!!!! We have many talented MUSICIANS that deserve to be mainstream…. Happy 44th btw…
being in a fiji concert when he starts singing this song is UNREAL! gives you goosebumps, especially because everyone knows all the words! he’s one of the best live performers i’ve ever seen!
It hits different when all of our music is centered around family. 🙏🏽
🙌🙌🙌
Fiji is our R Kelly in regards to catalog is endless.
To be honest. Fiji is the one that all Polynesians artists look to for inspiration for their music today. He is a legend in our community, representing all of Polynesia with his powerful voice since the 90s. We've all grew up listening to him. You should really look into his music😊 you won't be sorry.
He’s Fijian
Also an inspiring artist to us Melanisian people. He was my childhood favorite! Still listen to his songs till this day 🔥😊

I love Fiji! Can't wait for his concert in two weeks here on my home island of Guam!!! He's amazing! A LEGEND to us Pacific Islanders for sure!
@Benjamin Nededog Bunag Jr. aye 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

Yooooo.... Never though Fiji would pop up in big channels like these 😂😂 Bula vinaka and Malo my uso #micro #poly
E Papa is another song Fiji sang as well. I believe it’s a Māori song. But when he sings it live, it’s SWEET.
Fiji was singing those high pitches. Check out chant of the islands from Fiji live
All the vocals, the highs, the “backup singers” are all one man Fiji he’s Him for setting the platform for all Polynesian artists. Love from Hawaii. Happy birthday 🎉🎂
Those high runs is Fiji himself. He and bradah iz is our legends of Polynesian music and paved the way for everyone that has come after

I wish Iam Togni will sing this Sweet Darling as his final performance!!
I said the same. Maybe in the Final this Sunday?
It’s even more epic when he sings this song live… crowd goes nuts lol
He’s def the legend tho.. has written many songs for local artists and has even helped vocally for many. Fiji is heeem
That's just one man singing the whole song
One of my fave songs from Fiji is "sharing the night together"
Yes, Fiji is well-known for his falsetto in the islands. Another OG band that us islanders can't help but get up and dance to is Kapena.
Mahalo for sharing the love!! Glad you’re enjoying our island music!! There’s so much more out there you need to listen to.😊 Iam is really spreading Aloha to everyone through his voice, smile and his kindness!!
Fiji is our Poly Bob Marley. Even JBoog said that one time. You’ll love every song he has. You’ll Never be disappointed. The voice, the lyrics, the tune 🔥 🔥 🔥
Fiji is the Man… A lot of the artist u see people mentioning, Fiji has been apart of their music career at some point..
