Hey - I'm a class teacher at an International school in Kenya and my kids and I can't wait to see and hear new music from you. We would love to send you a video of us recreating one of your pieces or singing along to one sometime soon. Their favourite at the moment is One Pound Fish. Could you send us a quick message? They would be delighted to hear from you!
I may have never heard the words of Mr. Bebey nor his music if it were not for you and your wonderful talent. You paid him much respect by allowing him to be the lead in this video. Thank you for sharing your stage with Mr. Bebey.
I don’t know how to express how awesome Kiff is. But yeah, I’ll just Rock the KIFF shirt, then add Mr. Bebey’s name on the Back Edit : 2001 I was 6 yrs old when The Legend passed, My dad taught me to listen to his type of music.
@@ralphruivivar9625 where you from brother, the kiffness is on another level. Indeed, from your amazing words I choose to interact. To say you had an amazing Dad, if he gave you this gift from a young age. God rest his beautiful soul. Of which you are now carrying on. Nothing but peace love and light.🤙✌️🇿🇦
Two very talented men, the technologic guy (The Kiffness) vs the most basical flute player (Francis Bebey), separeted by time and styles, but reunited in this muical accomplishment... I can't stop listening to it, it's so beautiful, harmonics are amazing, Mr Kiffness, you are truly amazing! Francis must be proud if he can hear and see the result wherever he is. Thank you
Went through the comments and realised I'm the first Cameroonian on this. La magie... to think I was just binge watching @the Kiffness' videos and landed on this. There's genius and there's whatever the Kiffness is. My uncle (who passed away 2 years ago) taught me how to make music with just one-note using my hands or a half full bottle. This brings back memories. Merci Grand frere.
Fier de toi FRANCIS BEBEY l'un des plus grands compositeurs et poètes de l'Afrique. Je n'avais jamais vu une vidéo de toi au paravent, saufs tes poèmes et images dans les livres à l'école primaire. Je sais que tu nous regardes de là haut. Mes hommages 🙏
In Yeshua's name I pray to meet this man one day, God loves you all, turn to Yehovah,, repent, confess and turn from your wicked ways and be washed clean and welcomed into paradise, in this life and in the next and live life eternal, amen.
I just revisited this after a couple of years. This has to be my my favourite of all the hundreds of videos of yours I have watched! Well played, and RIP Francis.
Beautiful! Thank you so much The Kiffness. Also Francis Bebey: "Savage men don't live in the forests, they live elsewhere... they live in the cities". Couldn't agree more
I think my favorite part of bingeing these video is the sheer variety of people he mixes with and the unique techniques they all use. So cool to highlight!
Have you ever tried to work while listening to this in loop? Well... it helps me stay concentrated so well ! Thx to The Kiffness and tribute to Francis Bebey ! 👐🏽
Kiffness, if you don’t know this yet you’re an absolute treasure. Your catchy mixes with incredible melodies brings awareness to millions of people, keep up the great work.
@@sabrinatirabassi3529 took a look @ Giorgio by Duft Punk, gorgeous as well, as The Kiffness mentioned this is actually done manually via some kind of video warping technology
I’m French, and I grew up in Gabon, Africa. Went to a French school there until i was 18. Francis somehow reminds me of my music teacher, Mr. Akmel Gnagne. Beautiful souls sharing their music :). RIP Francis
Watch the calm on his face while playing the flute and it will make your day!! not sure others noticed, but his voice is as sweet as the sound of his flute.
Wow this is so touching. Reminds my home village. You just made miss my village gotta go visit my ancestors. I love you man. You just promoted this talented man, and have learnt something salvage people don't live in forest, word!
As a cameroonian, I am so proud to see this. Especially given that I recently discovered your works. Thank you so much for this piece with one of our legends. 👏👏🙏🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Perfect for one note Samba! Beautiful. The original people. The Bayaka, the Mbuti, and the Batwa. Ba Benzélè also rock!! Francis Bebey you have touched our soul. You have written deep literature also your first novel, Le Fils d'Agatha Moudio (Agatha Moudio's Son), was published in 1967 and awarded the Grand prix littéraire d'Afrique noire in 1968; it remains your best-known work. Stunning man.
I love this song so much, I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve listened now. It just warms my heart-it makes me feel like I had the opportunity to sit and spend time with this wonderful man, despite him passing away long before I even knew who he was. Thank you for introducing us to Francis, and I can only hope you make an extended version of this someday!
May God rest Francis Bebey’s soul so that he can play for Eternity. Never, ever heard anyone explain that it’s a conversation between the instrument and the musician (hope I got that right). For those that are musically-inclines, such The Kiffness (yay!!!!), they truly understand Mr. Bebey, and that is what counts. Thank you for creating music alongside many musicians across the World. The best of bestest jam sessions!! : )
Francis Bebey was an understated mathematician, poet, novelist, sculptor and musician from Cameroon. He ranks in the same class of music creativtity as the late Manu Dibango (king of soul makossa - how many of you have heard of "ma ma se ma ma se makossa" from Rihanna's 'Please don't stop the music' or Michael Jackson's "Wanna be startin' something"?) . Yes, both artists were from Cameroon, a country that is known internationally for its football legends (Roger Milla and Samuel Eto'o Fils) although musicians hailing from the coastal region (Douala/Yabassi) placed the country on the world map long before football gained prominence. For those discovering Francis Bebey for the first time, please look up on the following artists: Manu Dibango, Ndedi Dibango, Ndedi Eyango, Wes Matiko, Richard Bona, Epèmè Theodore (alias Zanzibar), Toto Guillaume, and Dina Bell. Many thanks to The Kiffness for honoring Francis Bebey in this beautiful melodic remix. As for those who disliked the music, I wonder if your soul is alive... or if you even have one ;-)
Love Mr. Bebey's explanation of 'speaking to the instrument'... from pre-historic innovators, developing ways to share and communicate, to modern musicians, doing the same... we are, all, people... sharing and celebrating the human experience. The Kiffness seems to 'get' that. Love these videos! Thank you : )
Video looks like an old VHS 4:3 so was interested if Francis was still alive... "Bebey died in Paris, France, on 28 May 2001. His survivors include his children Patrick, Toups, and Kidi Bebey, and his wife" - A great tribute, I'm sure his kids will love it.
This is the type of tune that could hit No.1 in many countries, seriously! It has a vibe that many different tastes will enjoy, and is a bloody good 'feel good' tune. Perfect for the summer. Well played yet again!
Wow, just wow. The grace to take this music, and then to stay in the background and give centre stage to the artist, as it should be. Such genuine respect and humility. I feel blessed to have listened to this. Thank you so much.
Oh boy, your talents as a musician always astound and truly I can not express enough gratitude in how discerning you are in what you chose to mix. Thanks for being so inspirational, genuinely have listened to your songs and remixes for hours upon hours since I discovered ya in the last month.
I love how you find these people with talent who I've never heard of or seen, then bring their music to new life by combining it with your own. Thanks for this; this tune made me much happier than I knew it would at the start.
Nice to see Mr bebey's video was recorded at the Real World Studios in box, Wiltshire, a place I know well from childhood!! Thanks, Kiffness, for the memories and this wonderful mix...
On a day when I’m feeling really bad and sad, like today, I listen to this and dance and feel a little better. Thank you The Kiffness for such joy. It gets me through the sadness.
Super! This artist and "one note bamboo flute" technique is amazing. So simple, yet so great. Thank you Kiffness for opening it to me. Good music has no boarders. Pavel, Russia, Rostov-on-Don.
Потрясающе!!! Чувак, сколько наблюдаю за твоим творчеством, столько раз убеждаюсь, что ты просто гений!! Музыка вокруг нас, её просто нужно слышать! Спасибо, что ты показываешь её всем нам!! И да, за кота отдельный респект!)))
My favorite The Kiffness video.
This gentlemen looks and sounds so tender.
I love the calm vibe.
RIP Mr. Bebey
As a Cameroonian I am so moved that you honoured two monuments of our music: the Pygmy flute and the incomparable Francis Bebey. Much love from Europe
Музика об'єднує людей з різних куточків світу. Вам особисто, хочу подякувати за вашу працю.

This needs more likes so he can see it. Hope we see some form of collab with the kids soon.
Wow. That was fantastic. Would love to see the kids do something and send it.

You can tell everything you need to know about Cameroon from Francis 🙏🏼 Xx
Rest in peace dear Francis Bebey. I hope you keep playing music for people from heaven.

Indeed.Completelr agree... RIP Franis.
Whenever I feel sad or depressed, all I need is just to remember this amazing song and the words Mr. Bebey said.
6 months later and I still play this weekly and smile. How beautiful are we as humanity. Thank you
again Kiff for such reminders.
Sending love to all Africa, from Romania!

Dude. This is such a great feel-good mix. And thanks for keeping his spoken comments in the mix. It adds so much character.
Kiffness, if you don’t know this yet you’re an absolute treasure. Your catchy mixes with incredible melodies brings awareness to millions of people, keep up the great work.
I always listen to this wonderful music when I am too tired of cruelty, violence and stop believing in the better. This music makes me believe
It reminds me of frogs singing on rainy days, when I was a child. There is simple pleasure and peace there.
Dude's speech always perfectly in sync with the rhythm! Insane! How is that possible?
I warped the video to go in time

As for those who disliked the music, I wonder if your soul is alive... or if you even have one ;-)
"Savage people usually live in the cities"...That one hit harder than expected.
So sad but yet so true
Savagery is a _human_ trait. Therefore it can come from anywhere we live, be it the jungles or the cities.
Savagery lives in your heart. Cities do make people hard and cynical.
@@613harbinger316 it CAN come from anywhere, but big cities are a mess right now. In the USA at least.

This remix is like a shot of joy straight to my heart. There needs to be a Spotify version, please?

What Francis said is true. Savage people live in the cities, not in the forest.
That was not what he said.
@@mikkolukas... What did he say then?
Seems accurate (tho qualified by usually). He sings about it too in his wildly catchy song, Coffee Cola. Lots of layers there. Pygmy flute too.
And all savage people are trolls on the internet.
Fake news :) HE IS STILLA LiVE !!!!!!!
0:41 His smile makes me smile too.. what a peaceful song.
This gives you absolute peace of spirit. Thanks, Kiff & Francis.

I love this video! That flute evokes to me a tropical jungle with a stream running through it with tropical birds singing! So relaxing!
This was one of the most heartwarming videos I have watched in a long time.
Thanks Kiffness for making us aware of this tale and this gentleman
We are ALL one note wonders... the symphony depends on how we play that one note and the variations we give to it from our hearts and souls..
His last statement is sad but so true.
Yeah, so true
“They usually live in cities”
Let’s think about who lives in the big cities.
@@nameunavailable1330 not trying to jump to conclusions but are you intending that to be about African Americans?
His last statement is very apropos in regards to the savage and terrifying riots that occurred in all the largest cities in the US last summer ☹️
Deep
He looked so calm, like there was peace in his heart and soul!
this is how serenity sounds. so calm and peacefull!
I watch this ever so often just to refresh my soul
A positive vibe for a Friday! Another feel-good collab from David Scott.
I think this is the Best one you have ever made. Mr.Bebey made it very special.
it reminds me of golden "Deep Forest" tunes, when Michel Sanchez were still in .. fantastic!!
