I am from brazil we have the samba de bamba its origin is bambara although it is talking about nonsense now in the 90's it spoke of lovin for the morenas morenas is how call black women it is moorish name because we descend from the bambara moorish people.
The roots of blues, jazz, funk and pop music are from Mali.From one region of the country to another region you will find different styles. Malian music is richer. One day a Jamaican woman whose husband is from Mali was having her hair braided by my wife, and I played a video of a diva from Mali, my country, she was amazed. She said this sounds like reggae music. The song is a traditional Malian song and not modernized at all. We used to live in Washington DC at that time. It was in 1998. Thank you guys! We can see how the world is small.❤❤❤
She said it sounds like reggae bc reggae is based on African-American blues. Dancehall parties used to be called 'blues parties' in the 1940s. Modern Jamaican music is heavily founded in African-American music. Sir Cox Dodd, Bob Marley, Count Matchukie & others were all inspired by Blk American radio stations they picked up in Jamaica. Pre 1940s Jamaican music sounded nothing like it does today. And you are correct African-American music is rooted in sahalian music which is why we're so heavy on string instruments vs other blk cultures in the Americas that are heavy on the drums. Blk Americans came from the sahel and we retained so much of our ancestral musical culture ❤
@Tshabalala-em3wj i got the receipts to prove it baby. Don't make me school you on your own culture chile. You'll be embarrassed. Hell google Sir Coxanne Dodd yourself if you don't believe me.

@@thornil2231you can be both. Judaism is a religion and culture. People can be from Jewish descendants. It is not a country.

So being Jewish is not a country.
RIP Ali Farka Touré. A jamais dans mon coeur depuis la première fois que je vous ai écouté, vers 1993, en concert à Ouagadougou. Un des plus grands chocs musical de ma vie. Vous avez bouclé la boucle : la fusion parfaite du blues qui venait d’Afrique avec l’Afrique qui avait enfanté le blues. Votre musique me donne la nostalgie d’un pays que je n’ai jamais connu, et on dit de la nostalgie que c’est la tristesse d’avoir été heureux.

Humans can be most beautiful only when they have Jesus!

I love African rhythms and voices, naturally from the heart.
Karkar un immense merci à toi
Karkar un immense merci à toi .
The musicians of Mali make the best music in Africa and West African music in general is of a very high standard
thanks for making a difference between music from mali and music from "example" congo bcz ppl always say " i love african music" like it was one homogenic group of people with the same culture sory english
I'm from the South of the same motherland. I absolutely love the melodies from Mali. They touch my spirit. I feel like I'm communing with the ancestors when I listen to these songs
No shit?
Your right

I listened to this song all day and I didn't get sick of it, every joint I listened to louder....great!
I can hear the foundations for blues but also reggae, especially when they play the off-beat guitar strokes. Just wow
True ... the overall vibe is very reggae-esque. The flow, the wave you ride when listening. it's a continuity within the notes, around the spaces, the people. #Garvey #Tosh

Man, even the way he lights that match is elegant and blends seamlessly with the guitar. Is it just me who noticed that?
00:04 true master
Were those cigs or big fat ones?
Totally
Hahahaha. Of course, this man is coolness himself in the most beautiful, tranquil and positive way. Love each and every sound, peace of mind and strength that his music has been giving to me over more than one decade
apparently. What are you lighting with your match?
No more of this majestic shall this generation encounter.... End times, flustered minds, incredibly low vibration.....i remenince the time I spent in west Alkebulan.....
Awesome Goosbumps ça prend aux tripes tout ce blues jazz soul ce monsieur est just 5:10 e incroyable. J’ai des frissons à chaque fois que je l’écoute.

I remember I was listening to Savane walking alone at night in the middle of nowhere in Tenerife desert and that was one of the most beautiful moments for the last few years: just me, darkness, calm air and his majesty Ali Farka Toure. Greetings from Russia!
ils jouent comme ils respirent c'est deux grand homme, c'est quelque chose que tout les artistes n’ont pas. incroyable incroyable amazing

I've had this on loop for 3 days! This brings peace to my soul
Mali has always been the jewel of Africa!! It's the heart of Africa in every way!!
África! Mãe do samba, do reggae, do blues e, claro, do rock'n'roll também
from the home where it all started Africa, mother of music. God bless mama Africa.
Amen

This is from Mali... not from "mama africa" which is a post colonial vision
@@MrM222222 stop dividing people you stupid post modernist
You can drawer a direct line to JB Lenoir " Down in Mississippi " from this.
I was so lucky to see Ali Farka Toure at WOMAD....he played his beautiful music out on the lawn in afternoon Sun to an audience of about twenty people...brilliant !
i am a big fan of these guies...Ali farka Touri had received multiple grammy awards...but Baubacker made us to feel like flying.salute
Koffi Olomidé doit être introduit dans les manuels scolaires de la RDC.
Le congolais qui arrive à arrêter la vie des congolais pendant des semaines entières, les gens défilent pour échanger sur le mythe Koffi Olomidé le plus grand auteur compositeur de musique congolaise. Le seule qui a inventé un style musical le tchatcho et l'a imposé à toute l'Afrique.
Bravo légende.
Amazing! this music greatly reassembles the music we have in the west of my home country Sudan, darfur. I love the earthy blues and jazz
People in Darfur are related to those in western Sahel.
Love to Africa from U.S. Beautiful music brings us all together.

Im from Ethiopia...greetings my AFRICAN bloody brothers
Blues came from Africa... And this is the evidence!!!! Proud African
Uya Joseph you don’t need evidence for that. It’s a fact as similar to the sun rising in the east.
I can hear the connection too. Incredible.
th-cam.com/video/qtFqyNlsHXU/w-d-xo.html listen to Sam "lightnin" Hopkins play and you will see that nothing really changed but the language but the soul and chord rhythm remains the same also the story behind it" almost sounds the same!!
Blues did not come from Africa you idiot.
Sounds like North Mississippi blues or rather it sounds like this.

I love how he lights up his cigarette at the beginning...that air of nonchalance..such people transcend the musical scale beyond the mechanics and theory and take it to sublime levels.
And that did not happen here.
What has the cigarette to do with musical talent?
I think he’s trying to say that the music is ingrained in the culture, not something apart that has to be studied.
@@1earflapping cigarettes..culture?
@@dcgallin In the sense that people in his area do it. Nothing to do with Western hoity-toity BS.
It is very musing to find different people from different backgrounds relating somehoe to this beautiful song
Lovely music, peaceful setting. Two men sitting together playing without ego, actually listening to the notes and feeling the rhythm. Thank you from America.
Love from Canada, lots of immigrants here too, I also feel ashamed of how closed minded we in the west are! Peace in the name of brotherhood and love for all!
Love it! From South Africa 🇿🇦
Love from Italy. When I listen for this music I feel a spirituality that I never experience with other music. Malian music is a magic dimension.
You see karkar enjoy so much playing with ali farka. Thankful for this pure film!
THIS BEAUTIFUL SOUND PENETRATES TO THE CORE OF A HUMAN BEING, AND IT BECOMES THE ESSENCE OF WHO WE ARE.
I HOPE YOUR LIGHT WILL SHINE EVEN THROUGH A POLITICAL DIFFICULT TIME.
