@@geekslabllc Sorry I don't know her music. I saw on social media that John Cena contacted her because of her song titled Cena or something. Im sorry, not trying to be nasty, but I really don't know most of the current SA music. I know some of their names but not the music.
People should appreciate the struggles and hardships this South African musical icon had to face at the height of her career after being forced out of her homeland at the time to live in exile for 30 years by the cruel apathaid government. Sadly she passed away in 2008 (heart attack) just 2 years after this performance right after singing at a concert. Her memory lives on.. As a kid growing up in the 60's and 70's I remember and play her "Pata Pata" song to this day. RIP Miriam Makeba
I am from South America: Colombia , parents from the Caribbean. I attend a Nigerian Church recently here in Houston Texas , I just came across the Voice . silky Jo-An that is how . This Wonderful name was mentioned. I listen today to Miriam Makeba , SILKY-Jo A was honoring her , she she sings from her early age , she told the audience . I love also Harry Belafonte . They were friends . Lovely cultures . The church from Nigeria I attend the vibe is amazing . The worship is contagious
I don't know why I'm tearing up...tears of joy ofcourse...I looooove this woman...she was such a gem ..her music was classy.. golden...I just can't get enough of it.. listening in Kenya🇰🇪🇰🇪June 2021❤️❤️
Basically in this song she is telling her whole life story in exile after she was banned from her home country R.S.A by the extreme whites government(apartheid) then harrassed in the U.S.A, now homeless and found comfort in alcohol and slowly becoming an addict(alcoholic)however the home country R.S.A is now free and those who chased her out will run away when they see her coming, she is happy to be home. She is not blaming anyone nor preparing to retaliate. R.I.P Miriam Makeba.
@@revothomas9343 I wish if she was still with us and see what is now going on in the U.S.A the country that harassed her and treated her like a piece of #*** after she married a civil rights activist, she ended up homeless living in West Africa and Zimbabwe.
I am from Greenland, the Inuit people. I have loved Miriam Makeba from the first time I heard her voice and rhythm. My classmates still call me Makeba. I am a singer myself. Thank you Miriam Makeba, I love you from the bottom of my heart. 💖
Here in Kenya we also acknowledge this gifted lady as a role model to the leaders and influential people we need,thank you God for gifting us with such talents
MAKEBA MIRIAM was an extra-skilled songstress with an enviable stage performance. Her musical glory remains alive in this evergreen song HAPO ZAMANI. You shall always be remembered👌✌️💯🇰🇪💋❤️

Rest In Peace Grandpa this song reminds me how your small radio would always play while you in the living room quite , even though dad wasn't around grandpa you made things beautiful for us.
Ich habe derzeit in Berlin gelebt und das große, großartige Glück gehabt, diese wunderbare Lady genau in diesem Jahr noch einmal live zu erleben. Es ist eins meiner wunderbarsten, wichtigsten Momente in meinem Leben! Ich bin dankbar ❤
I read the comments and all I see is people from other countries appreciating you Gogo more than us south Africans, you were larger than life and I think it's a crime that people like you are not taught about in schools, you should be flooding our TV screens, roads named after you, at some point we should have bank notes with your face, Thank you for everything you did for this country!
Being an indian I had no opportunity to see her. Hard to realise her struggle for freedom of African continent as our ancestors did during our freedom movements. She is my inspiration for liberty from sufferings. ❤🙏🙏🙏

@@ocpdofficial4561 thanks. The Xhosa translation that comes after that says.. When you see me as a drunkard its because of the mzungu. When you see me arriving so late is coz of the Boer (mzungu). When I'm busy strolling on the streets... When you see me homeless it's coz of the mzungu.
As congolese living in South Africa for more than 2 decades, understanding better Swahili, IsiZulu, IsiXhosa. Mama Africa I don't have words to express what I feel through your inspirational songs. Listening to them since my childhood, it is just booooom. Afrika we need from upcoming young stars and put the motherland on the map through music.
2022 Kenya reppin'. Big up to the one who wrote her the lyrics of this song. She must have been ahead of her time. It's like she knew that one day Swahili will become Africa's official language. Rest In Power Queen Miriam ✊ 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Born 2000 there was my neighbor,who usually play this music he was a barber and had a small shop i used to go there to listen to this masterpiece ,thanks to that i couldn't have known this great tunes voice everything is perfect 🎉🎉 love from kenya love you all African countries hope one day we should have one flag as African continent 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
I love Miriam Makeba. Beautiful singer, beautiful black woman! I was a child when she performed here in the USA. And she was virtually banned after marrying Black revolutionary Kwame Ture (Stokely Carmichael). But they cannot ban her SPIRIT. Rest in peace, Miriam. Your spirit lives with us.
