- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ก.ย. 2024
- Sona Jobarteh hails from a long West African tradition of Griots and kora players; her grandfather was the master Griot Amadu Bansang Jobarteh.
Creating her own history, she has broken from the male-dominated kora tradition to become the family's first female virtuoso of the instrument.
Here Sona Jobarteh performs the traditional Malian song, Jarabi, accompanied by Femi Temowo on guitar and percussionist Robert Fordjour.
The magic of the internet allows a jamaican living in canada to be transported back to the homeland by this beautiful music played by these talented musicians.
Carry on my broda!
Love my Jamaica 🇯🇲 family from East Africa ❤️❤️❤️😭😭😭
And a Jamaican living in Jamaica experiencing the same. What a music sweet mi Idren!
Wa gwan Michael from a fellow Canadian. This music transcends location, time, and race - it’s simply beautiful.
But why leave beautiful Jamaica for the frozen climate of Canada - Canada is too cold.
Fa real!
After listening to this song, i decided to name my daughter "djarabi", word which actually means "beloved". Sona you are divine. Much love from Cameroon 🇨🇲❤️
Sorry but Djarabi doesn't mean that.
@@alasansilla4693 Actually the word Djarabi cuts across many African languages and in one of these languages (lingala i think), Djarabi means beloved. Now i don't know to what language you are referring to but it doesn't necessarily mean that my own meaning is false. I suggest you go do some research like i did. Meanwhile I'll maintain that word and it's meaning for my daughter's name. Thanks for your reaction though.
@@kamzeumboudomesperancelafo7169 It's a great name and you don't have to be so polite avec les casseurs d'Esprit.. Alasan is being Silly here
@@kamzeumboudomesperancelafo7169 Djarabi means beloved
@@alasansilla4693 so what's the meaning of djarabi
😭😭 This is the type of music that should be played in our radios.... true African music😍😍😍
Thousands times agreed. And this for the world over, every country, every small area, possessing so many wonderful pieces of genuine folk culture to offer. + With such a talent as Sona's !
Listening in 2020!
Being African is such a blessing. The diversity of our talents is such a wonder, i love sona and her music.
Much love from Kenya🇰🇪
Say it again my brother my sister. Much luv to our mother land
This West African music culture is addictive!
It's from the ❤️ of Africa & Africa is the 💛 of Mother Earth!
That's why so many people 🌍 from all around 💚 love & feel it 🌻✌🏻😎
Le Cœur des hommes est relié par les instruments et la musique, des langues universelles comprises par tout le monde, je suis né en France, je suis originaire de la Turquie et j'écoute cette fabuleuse musique, qui est une histoire, avec une chanteuse qui est aussi musicienne et des musiciens extraordinaire, j'écoute et mon cœur s'apaise, bonjour de France à tout les mélomanes, que le Seigneur vous bénisse mes amis...

I cannot find the words to describe how this beautiful music stirs something deep in my soul, like a soothing balm to my very bones. It is “heaven” and “home” rolled into one. May God continue to bless Sona Jobarteh, an honored griot, and the talented musicians who accompany her to create these sacred sounds that seem to transcend time and space.
Agreed.
💖true
Such a beautiful comment! As "heavenly" as the song itself.
Oh yesyesyes!
Listening From Trinidad and Tobago in the Caribbean. Beautiful music. Proud to be an African. This music is taking me back to my ancestral home. Love the Kora sounds so much better than a harp in fact no comparison.
One of the bests songs I've already heard. It touched all my body and soul. Greetings from Brazil ♥️
Jarabi means "Love"
Realmente, sem palavras pra descrever.
TB estou encantado
Same feeling from morocco 👍
Vc tem bom gosto amiga, abraços desde Suriname
I’am Tunisian I don’t understand a word but I really love Sona’s voice she’s amazing !! I hope I will visit Gambia one day ! Keep it up
We don’t like racist people coming in our beautiful country
This song makes me proud to be African
I haven't even begun to scratch the surface of African culture. I'm 54 years old, reading "Africa is not a country" (which makes me very ashamed of the misdeeds of my Dutch colonizing forebears whose crimes can never be redeemed), listening to Fatoumata Diawara and now this wonderful artist. One lifespan is not nearly enough to comprehend the cultural riches of a wondrous continent about which I have been wrongly taught in my youth that "poor people live there". I am ashamed for not having looked beyond such cliches sooner and yet, I'm in awe of the beauty that I find. ❤
The drummer is from Ghana and the guitarist is from Nigeria. Sona from Gambia. Nice this african trio. Love to and from africa!
The drummer plays calabash so well, of course they are all amazing, I just pay attention to the little details and I think he's got amazing sense of rhythm ! Ghana and The Gambia and Nigeria are very different when it comes to music so really big respect to them all.
Cosmo Knipscheer Im looking for someone who plays kora or this kind of music, in accra for my wedding?do you know any person
+Nelia
Yes and music is manding music (gambia, mali, guinea...) One love
The guitarist is not from Nigeria. He is Habib Koite from Mali.
I am from Mali, we are the same people. Thanks
I'm french and love african music. Kora sound comes from heaven. We are One 🙏!
@Fatimaxn Barry don't forgot north ivory coast west burkina until south Mauritania.
@Fatimaxn Barry, 👍
One Love Mother Africa. Akpé
Уже пару лет смотрю и слушаю Сону Джобарте в восхищением к ее творчеству... Чеченская республика.👍👍👍
Thank you!
Here's a beautiful description of one of the deeper meanings of this beautiful song from Mali;
this love song "Jarabi, from a FB post by Sarah le Kali on Wednesday, October 31, 2012...thanks Sarah!
JARABI
Most Kora songs are very formal and connected with some piece of history and cultural root of Mende tradition; Jarabi is an exception. However, Jarabi (meaning "Beloved"), is among the most popular of Kora songs. Originally composed shortly after the independence of the Mali Federation -- now divided as Senegal, Gambia and Mali -- Jarabi was meant to capture the new national spirit of renaissance. The government supported a return to traditional arts and cultural expressions of the many people of the region. In this new environment, Jarabi was born, has become and remains the single most popular Kora piece to date. When the French were forced to leave they offered Mali the option of remaining a common wealth under the French system; the people, so vexed by the brutality of French occupation, wanted only complete independence. Infuriated, Charles Du Gaulle order the country stripped of everything. Buildings were destroyed and infrastructure was rent a sunder. The people found themselves with far less than what they had before colonization and have been recovering ever sense. Composed in this time, Jarabi is a love song which, like most African love songs from this period, is intended as a metaphor for the love of the country, it's culture, and it's people. During colonial times, such love songs would be infused with messages through metaphors meant to enjoin the beleaguered with hope and resolve...
Thank you! I have used your quote as an intro/synopsis/background when sharing with my family.
Suzanne Lerner wow! Thank you for this, extremely extremely illuminating.
Translation of this song please
Thanks for this explanation. Quite insightful.
Jarabi means love n'jarabi means my love which you can't translate to beloved. The kora is MANDING instrument, which The mende are sub groups of
Sick and jealous people giving thumbs down bec they can never be successful at anything in this world. Everything about this woman is heavenly beautiful.
fyi You're probably not jealous ;)
The haters cannot weep, they cannot feel, they cannot love
I never worry about the haters.
Flies are attracted to the light as well, remember ;)
AMEN.
This sent shivers deep in my soul and brought tears to my eyes. We need more music like this, pure energy and genuineness. Hats off

@@jkemo1 .
I was recently listening to a compilation of Gambian music when a song by Sona Jobarteh began playing. I was instantly a forever fan! Beautiful, melodic, and relaxing this music is everything! I will be listening to each and every video. Soon I will travel to The Gambia and I will be buying some CD's for sure.

Sona Jobarteh...what a beautiful gift to the world.
Very good song beautiful girl.god bless you
You have said it. Have fallen in love with her songs.
She speaks about love "jarabi" Mean love sweetheart, darling for thoses who are asking. Peace from 🇸🇳🇸🇳✌🏽
I'm from Bosnia, Sarajevo living in US since 2004. Can't stop listening to Sona Jobarteh. What an artist OMG. I want to hug her and thank her for her beautiful and meaningful music and lyrics. My fave is Meeya of off he new CD. N'na Duniyaa for the movie Beast, with awesome. Idris Elba is outstanding, too. Love them both.
My friend introduced me to Sona and her music and I'm in love! Reading the comments I see people from all over the world, united by music and soul. Much love to you all, my spirit siblings! Thank you, Sona, Femi, and Robert!
Spirit siblings is a beautiful description...love and blessings to you too dear one.❤
@@katedavies9578 Love, warm hugs and blessings to you!
Não entendo nada do que ela diz na música mas musicalidade é perfeita. Não há duvida que a musica nasceu em África. Sona Jorbateh traduz perfeitamente os valores culturais da musica africana. É simplesmente fenomenal, inspirador, sublime... define perfeitamente o conceito de música. Parabéns!
De Moçambique
Thats a pure definition of African finest and identicality of Music .
All the way from Angola
Every time I listen to you Dr Sona I feel like crying 😢. You make me envision what African would have been if not for corrupt leaders who have no empathy n love for Africa and Africans 😢😢
@Pnumea_Reactions1: On peut également imaginer ce qu'aurait pu devenir l'Afrique, s'il n'y avait pas eu plusieurs siècles d'esclavage, de déportations et de colonisation. Cette chanson est magnifique, même si je ne comprends pas les paroles. La musique, la mélodie et la douceur de la voix pénètrent dans l'esprit et dans le ❤❤
I miss my Dad today because of this beautiful music RIP🇲🇱🇿🇲
Africa the origin of 🎶 music. Love from Ghana 🇬🇭
from cameroon resident in qatar dicovered this beauty by mistake and every day i'm listening to her with joy her beauty and her voice got me speechless ..i love Africa
This is what the word "groove" was coined to represent in music....that magic moment when everything is in total sync.....synergy.....This is the magic about African music, which is always there and only sometimes in other forms of music. As a multicultural ethnic percussionist, I have come to understand that this fundamental element, the groove, is the essence of African music, because it IS in every instrument, including the voice. I'm gonna go out on a limb to say, for me personally, there is nothing quite equal to the "groove" in African music.
What a beautiful and true comment
i think it has to do with a way of listening
What a wonderful comment Chandra! I agree completely.
Ancestrial voices..reminding us...they walk with us...
Beautifully and eloquently said Chandra! I teach timing and musicality for my Afro-Cuban best friend's dance academy. There's a vibration in this music that connects our brain, heart, lungs, feet and everything in between in the most harmonious way. I love watching the joy in these musicians' bodies and their wonderful connection to their instruments as well as to each other. I can hear the origins of the Cuban music that transformed my life before and after aggressive cancer 20 years ago. This video illustrates the true secret of a happy life.
Sona is the first Gambian female to play Kora.. You make Gambia proud you are the best
The Ordered Spirit I also heard she is related to the legendary Toumani diabate
Gambia = Paradise 🙏🇬🇲
@@SilkeBuchhorn ❤ have you ever been there ??
Are you sure? Because I know many women in Gambia that do is just that they are not well known
@@TheHijabfatima you have any referrals we can hear
Watching this from my Island country FIJI....it's very enchanting and calls my soul my spirit to be happy( like deja Vu I remember my past lives and such a sound)....very emotional 🙏👏👏👏
The musical mathematical algorithmic dimensions of the performance are other-worldly. Thank you Sona . . . an angel placed on earth in paradise Motherland . . .beckons memories of being taken in the Middle Passage and orphaned in the Americas.
My skin is as white as the milk of the cows my country is famous for. But my soul knows all the colours of the world. I just love this!
Herman Papillon Looool! And yes Music can bring everyone together
Herman Papillon you said right there your soul that's the most important thing to being human the body is just a vessel nothing more
To all THUMBS~UP: possibly WorldDrumming in Synchrony someday///HARMONIC PLANETARY RESONANCE
My skin is as dark as the dark night bt i'm a person of living planet
Herman no you are not white, colour of your skin is more likely to be pinkish but your point is still valid - lol. And you and I both irrespective of not even understanding what she is saying, are drawn to thus elegant lady full of talents.
Africa,
The birthplace of Human BEings,
and the birth place of Music being explored by Humans:)
torontosorewristhex thank you for recognising God bless you
@Shreya Ganguly nah out of africa theory was debunked
@Shreya Ganguly Theres other hominids to exist like the neanderthal and denisovans. Everyone outside of Africa has neanderthal DNA. Everyone is NOT African. Native Africans and their descendants are only African. People love to claim Africa when convenient to them.
@Shreya Ganguly Everyone isn't African. Everyone does not share that culture. It's not your culture.
Maravilhosa ! Me levou em outra dimensão de paz e alegria !!!!!
Siberia loves you and listens. All the best to you! We look forward to someday!
Love 💕❤ u sona u make us proud 🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲🇬🇲✌🤴
she is a true testimony to African musical heritage
M Hy Don't insult my gambian manding sister. She's plays Manding music she is one of us. We have many griots (singer/Kora players) she is one of them. Stop trolling
M Hy if she didn't who would fill that gap
They as in them not just her... Power of music brings People together... Ase' uhuru mubuntu
who could give this a thumbs down?? she's amazing Shame on you
Tom J by mistake maybe
Tom J Must be first time you tube users. High chance is they don't know the difference between thumbs up and thumbs down.
samson ojwang...Maybe some of them yes; but there seem to be people who likes to put thumbs down on things as a " hobby " too I believe. For this video I can not see any reason to put any thumb down, so it really looks strange to see as many as 273 of them at this moment.
Tom J people whithout soul
There are very evil people here who go intentionally into any videos with black people or African culture and write horrid racist things or dislike it, so maybe the same people.
One English translation I hope, please correct in comments!

(Kankan Jarabi)
A song dedicated to the power of love and to its predominance over all other feelings. It teaches us that:
Every person
Is called upon to dedicate to another
A passionate love.
All illnesses
Can be treated by the doctors,
But love is an illness
Which doctors cannot cure.
Wait for me! Wait for me, my beloved one!
For I cannot live without you.
Surely you do not know my beloved one:
It is he who, for me,
Eclipses all others.
The old women do not know
Perhaps, the power of love;
The old men do not know,
Perhaps, the power of love;
For if they really knew it
They would have understood my passion,
They would have understood
That love is an incurable illness.
For love knows no father,
For love knows no mother,
For love knows neither brother nor sister;
Love is blind to all this,
Love is deaf to all this,
What counts alone is what you have said to me.
And never forget, my beloved one,
What you have promised me,
For treason is worse than all,
Especially in love.
remember...if you are touched by this music, consider supporting this Amazing musician's school in Gambia, created by her to raise a whole new generation of gifted singers & musicians.

OMG!! I have had this song on replay for like forever. So soothing. Truly African but yet Universal. And to see the artists enjoying the song just as much as I am, the smiles on their faces, PRICELESS! Pure RYTHM. The base from that calabash, made me buy new headphones just so I can hear it in its purest form. I definitely would love to hear this LIVE. Well done Sona and dear brothers.
Next level Seriously: to say farewell to traditional male-positions is breaking up with history. So much harmony and peace to go on with this music❣️
My God I love this woman and her heavenly music😇
I began following her after i discovered her song titled Gambia. She has a heavenly voice and beauty too :)
Vibrant soul ! J'ai eu l'immense privilège de rencontrer Sona au Festival "Les tambours de Gaïa" en Ariège en juin dernier , quelle personne magnifique ! Longue vie à toi Sona , et merci !
Vous avez bien de la chance de l'avoir rencontrée !
Завидую вам белой завистью...

Sona, you're a big "djéli", your sound has opened my heart ...
But now the mind would want his share ...
Please, someone is able to publish the text of this song in European language?
A sincere thank you to those who will do it ...

So beautiful! Thank you!

Heard it from a friend, so in love with this piece everything is just so perfect. Much love from Kenya 🇰🇪 ❤
Many thanks for this beautiful song 🙏🏼 Djarabi West Africa 💚
Rich African sound,I like it!
Chanteuse et musicienne admirable. Les musiciens qui l'accompagnent ne déméritent pas bien sûr mais Elle a quelque chose de plus dans la voix qui est très touchant. Magnifique
très bien vu !
+Diamaye Ndong J'admire beaucoup aussi Rokia Traoré et Fatouma Diawara aussi qui ont beaucoup de sensibilité dans leur voix. Sans doute y-a-t'il d'autres chanteuses mais que je ne connais pas et qui chantent elles aussi admirablement.
Je suis Anglais mais j'aime le Gambia, aussi le chanteuse Sona Jobarteh. Elle sont formidable. Regards!

well said she deserved the title
2 chords and im already in heaven
q
Am and Dm ^^
almost exactly what i said when heard this. There is something about this music It really is as though past times are within us and they speak to us through music.
I also hear a great similarity between the Kora and the Turkic Baglama, also a stringed instrument. Both instruments make me think im in heaven....There is a sweetness and delicacy to the sound ......just makes me feel chills down my spine and extreme joy at the same time. As for her voice.....It is pure perfection. And the two musicians....the peace and serenity on their faces says it all
Une merveille
Une voix d or huitième merveille du monde
Une des seules choses que permet la musique : le sublime par l’harmonieuse symbiose de sons, sonorités et âmes qui les émettent.
Ce son est le seul qui me plonge ou me transporte dans un moment de connexion avec la transcendance.
Merci Sona 🙌🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
In love with this song, lots of love from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 for Africa
Thanks 😍 I am so grateful You guys are on earth in these hard Times.
