One of the best things about Iam Tongi, in my opinion, is that he used his platform to elevate the music of other Pacific Islander artists. He didn’t have to do that. It would probably have been “safer” to play music that mainstream audience members would recognize. But, he chose to bring his community with him.
This is what it looks like to embody the idea that when one of us wins, we all win. What a good dude.💕
💯💯💯🤙🏾

Cheehuuuuu! Bout time the world realized how beautiful the pacific music is. So many amazing songs and sounds that come from many of the islands that are just mind blowing. And nothing, I mean nothing, makes you close your eyes and just smile like our pacific vibez!!!
True 👍 ✔️
Congrats, Iam! You definitely put Hawaii onda Map. Especially with our Local Artists.
This song embodies how life is like for kids in Hawaii. Exactly. After school (if we never cut class) we would go hang out at the beach! Sometimes we go and hang out at our friends or cousins house with our boards or diving gear before hitting Yokohama or Makaha Surfing Beach. Mahalo for your exciting and happy reaction to Iam's vid and Aloha from Hawaii!
TALOFA!!!I love you guys energy. I’m a Samoan living in canada. Love watching your reactions, cheers.
Hello again you beautiful two. I believe that the recent reveal and response to IAM TONGI, the American Idol winner 🏆, is the most significant one to date. Even Carrie Underwood received fewer votes and worldwide attention in comparison. This season is sure to be remembered for years to come 🌟.
So good. Makes you feel good. The background singers and musicians were AMAZING as well as Iam❤🎉
I love your reactions they are fun and insightful. Islanders all love lay back style so reggae from Jamaica is loved amongst all the islands of the Pacific. There are reggae bands throughout Polynesia but especially Aotearoa (New Zealand) and Hawaii with many bands on the mainland (US). I believe in the late 80's early 90's Jawaiian Music was coined (Jamaican-Hawaiian) referencing reggae as the influence of the music played with Ukulele making it unique in its way also. Since then many groups have been formed and the music is loved and enjoyed throughout the islands. Those very same groups (bands) play at graduation parties, weddings, birthday parties, hotels, beaches, parks and concerts. This is local style music not Hawaiian music which is also awesome but different from what you are hearing I'm sing. Hawaiian music you can look up artists like Keali'i Reichel, Makaha Sons of Niihau, Ho'okena, Gabby Pahinui, etc. vs Local Style reggae groups like Kolohe Kai, The Green, Ma'oli, Kiwini, Ho'aikane, Braddah Waltah, Three Plus, etc. and others that do a blend of genres Kapena, Willie K, Josh Tatofi, Anuhea, Fiji, and many more. Enjoy looking them up and listening to some of the talented artists we enjoy here in Hawaii.
Love you two reaction your love and support to our Favorite Angel Superstar IAM Tongi He WON IT ALL WINNER of AMERICAN IDOL 2023 we're all proud of him Congratulations IAM Tongi our Polynesian Superstar.
We called it "Jawaiian" music growing up here in Hawaii
True that. Even on Guam we called it Jawaiian back in the day.
Yeah you ❤
Yup.. Jawaiian:)
The fact that you guys are dancing and enjoying the song too ❤️
Perfect song he picked🤙! You can't help to just stand up and jam🤙Cheeehoooo
Perfect song!! New flair to AI!! Finally!!
Pidgin English is not only Chinese, its Filipino, Hawaiian, Japanese, and other Pacific Islander languages mixed together.
Truly the most multicultural language 😘
No forget Portuguese and Korean.
@@dl-ce3so So true brah.
Hawaiian Pidgin was formed in the early 1900’s when the sugar plantation and pineapple plantations came here. The plantation workers were Hawaiians, Filipinos, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese and Koreans who couldn’t speak each other’s languages, but they all spoke broken English. Every culture added their own words from their native language to Hawaiian Pidgin. Hawaiian Pidgin is broken English
Kolohé Kai is a Hawaiian treasure!! Pls check out more of their music.
Oh! AND there's a video of Roman Peralta reacting to Iam's performance of his song! It's so heartwarming.
A popular hawaiian jam on idol!!!?? What, so cool , yessah
In the early '80s, Reggae found a niche in thenHawaiian music scene. In the beginning, we couldn't quite get the groove/feel of Reggae or Ska or One Drop. Hence our interpretation became what we called "Jawaiian". Eventually we caught on and it's become the most popular genre in our state. Thanks to our fellow island peoples of Jamaica.
Old school local jam from kohole kai, another local jam from kolohe kai is "ehu girl" one of my all time favorites
I thought this was his best performance of the competition. He’s having fun, he’s getting everyone involved, and for this performance it felt more like a concert than a competition. The crowd chanting his name at the end just added to the experience. Yessah 🤙🏽
I started listening to Hawaiian music now, added it to my library
Yes u run Iam ...sounded cool man
Loved the ❤ vibe from you two
Brah! You threw that Shaka @ 5:56 like you live here! Enjoyed the reaction!🤙
Yous should see his reaction to Iam singing it. So beautiful looking forward to your next journey of reactions ❤❤
Pidgin English started during the plantation days when you had Hawaiian,Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, and Portuguese etc. workers trying to communicate with each other in English. Each language is intermingled in pidgin too,
Aaah such a fun and fantastic performance thanks so much for your reacts love you two❤
Love the leis you two ❤

Ko lo he Kai
Pidgin English or Hawaiian Creole by some language experts, is a conglomeration of many different languages.
During Hawai'i's early years of immigration of people from other countries, most especially during the plantation days, is most likely when Pidgin started.
So... when Kanaka Maoli (Hawaiians) were trying to learn & speak English, they had some difficulty early on due to the differences between the languages.
Like brother became 'braddah' and "How are you?" or "How is it going?" became 'howzit?'. For example.
Then over the years, with the introduction of the Japanese, Chinese, Portuguese, and Filipino immigrants, their words began to eventually mix in and Pidgin would evolve into what we know today.
In fact, it's also because of the Plantation days & immigrant families that we have what people in Hawaiʻi know as "Plate Lunches". That's another long story. 😅
Thx for sharing such interesting insight!
@@ReactToTheWorld You are welcome or he mea iki in Hawaiian.
Yup.. Jawaiian:)

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Aipolani#:~:text=Walter%20Aipolani%20is%20a%20Hawaiian,became%20known%20as%20Bruddah%20Waltah.
If youre interested in the start of hawaiian reggae aka jawaiian music - bruddah waltah is generally considered the pioneer of it - iam sang his song sweet lady of waihole during his homecoming concert
Jawaiian
Kolohe Kai!
It's pronounced koh loh heh (not hee) kai. Hawaiian words are read phonetically. Es are ehs and Is are ees.
If you want to learn some pidgin, look for Andy bumatai
Cheee hoo! Kalohe Kai very Hawaiian maybe you missed it. I feel like I'm in the wrong channel
If you think about not many people can afford go Hawaii this is away to experiance the culture.
KO-LO-HE Kai…..don’t think too hard when you pronounce Hawaiian words and names 😬
Boring…
