Muafrika2:Yes it's about Kenya violent liberation struggle from British. Your first president Jomo Kenyatta and Tom Mboya were the prominent leaders of KANU. There were also large white settlers in Kenya and had owned almost all the fertile highlands of Kenya. Is the name Kenya driven from your first president name? Are there still white settlers in Kenya? 1 Like |

ednited:Nice song, i don't have to understand Amharic to enjoy it, i only have to understand music. I noticed something with all ethio music videos i have ever seen : the dancing by shaking the shoulder thingy. Very unique to the horn. And of course, coffee and Ethiopians, never far from each other! If you ask me, and am not a music guru, there is also a different baseline and beat unique to Ethiopia. This leads me to the question : These MTV best African music awards should be considered a sham because African music is soo diverse in every ramification, who does these awards serve and for what purpose? |

Hati13:most kenyan school kids leave school only knowing about Menelik and battle of Adwa. I once was arguing with a fellow kenyan that Christianity and islam have been in Ethiopia for more than 1500 years and he thought I was lying! Many don't even know that the Ethiopian highlands are larger than the Kenyan highlands, some even think all of Ethiopia is a big desert! Many kenyans and indeed many africans at large aren't knowledgeable about each other. The curriculum is designed to keep you away from the true history. I have personally taught myself alot about African history by my own efforts. 1 Like |

Dear genieluv, listen those Ethiopian songs. 1. Tikur anbesa(means, black lion) 2. Yaselam(Arabic word. Amharic but it's Ethio-Sudan mix style). 3. Endenat(means, like a mother) 4. Salayesh(means, before I see you) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHzIN29_k6k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlQZCd6c4yE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6KgkX-YebY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_O7WReCvcKU |

ArtanK: Kk. I understand you very well. It's just that i think this black label identity has already become too entrenched in this world for it to be reversed. ****America controls n dominates the media of this world and in America, the black identity is highly promoted n carried with utmost pride by the blacks themselves. So i don't think anything can really be done about this. 1 Like |

OMANBALA1: I dont know if you followed this thread long enough. Youd know who is trying so hard to bring black skin down. Its your own countrymen. Kenyans dont suffer from that sort of ignorance. Its the first time I am on a forum discussing the blackness of people and quite disappointingly its a Nigerian site. We have thousands of pitch black Sudanese here and we dont even notice. 1 Like |

MtuMsuper: U really have a good point here. Buh in the last MTV africa awards, some north african musics/artistes were nominated n i think one of them won an award buh you see, they do not even show up for these awards. ****North africans n horn africans really do not fancy the idea of mixing with other black africans, they are so much used to living in seclusion n isolation, and it seems like they love it that way. Holly you cannot expect mtv to give awards to african entertainers who have no fan base across africa while there are hot trending music with fans across everywhere waiting eagerly for their celebs to be awarded. It just cannot work that way. |

Ethiopian music, @genieluv 1. Anbessa(means, "lion". Teddy Afro song for Ethiopian athletes in 2004 Olympic. Must listen song) 2. Enem Lazimelesh Dire(one of my favorite) 3. Gelawa(smooth love song) 4. Nur Batamnime(means, "live even if you don't believe". Advisable for depressed people). 5. Bado neber(Ethiopia reggae, Haile Roots) 6.

OMANBALA1: You're right about Ethiopians. The way you see them behaving here Hati and Ednite is pretty much how they are on the streets. Humble people, no wonder they maintained their culture, identity and empire for thousands of years. You dont do that by being arrogant. 3 Likes |

NairobiWalker: Holly Nigerians are not obsessed with light skin, that's absurd. If we were, dark skinned women n men would not have been winning beauty pageants. ***Meet the current MBGN (most beautiful girl in Nigeria), she is dark skinned n she is going to represent Nigeria in the Miss world contest.
