I don't believe in reincarnation, but God knows that after my Puertorican musi, my soul is touched in the most beautiful way by African music. I love it and thanks To the Spaniards that they never took away the drums from our African that unwillingly came to the carribean .We conserve our roots. I wish i could visit Africa. Only God knows the desire my heart. Viva Africa!

@@SteveSalisbury The question you must ask yourself is why someone celebrating their black culture trigger you so much? We should be silent and controlled because you're triggered? Help me understand your anger. This is OBVIOUSLY the sound of Alkebeulan (Africa) yet you're here enjoying it but MONITORING the comments making sure we black people stay in our place.
