Go there during the festival week, it amazing. Its week of great ancestry music.

Welcom to morocco m'y syster❤

I highly recommend you come to the Gnawa Festival in Essaouira city in Morocco in June. You will have a unique experience.

But some information said in this video is wrong. The port was build by the Portuguese who not subsaharian slaves actually because Portugal had control over that part of Morocco at the time and that’s why it’s called Mogador.

@gmailyou367 yes! I let things, such as historical facts that are benign, slide by. Overall, puts Essaouira on a map. Good enough for moi.

Hello Youssef can you please tell me what time it is this musical Festival? I must go...thanks...

Actually it's not! Black American Culture is universal. BLUES come from the descendants of CHATTEL SLAVES in the U.S., not Morocco whom we never met nor know anything about. Find someone else's back to ride!

welcome to Morocco My Friend Morocco From Gnawa 🇲🇦😍

You should go to Essaouira festival. This music is spiritual and once you start dancing to it your soul liberates. It's best for soul healing.

As a Black American who come from the states where mostly EVERY GENRE of Black American Music was formed and crafted I have nothing against anyone who want to enjoy and emulate Black American music.. I have issues with people who LIE and attempt to STEAL and EMBELLISH Black American music and come up with scenario to grift and steal what they know is not their own. Jimi Hendrix was an ESTABLISHED ARTIST, NOT an "EXPERIMENTAL ARTIST" when he shortly visited your country. The Rolling Stones were copying Black American BLUES MEN. The SOUTH where THE BLUES, ORIGINATED. This man who is Caribbean lied. The one from Cali know he lied. Baise liked the HORN sounds of the Cubans. He went to Cuba played with the Afro Cubans and incorporated their horns in his band. . I am not the only one who will absolutely destroy the liars who are the narrators of this farce documentary attempting to give false relevance. Almost ANY Black American Southerner, Northerner or Midwesterner will do the same with what we know are misnomers. We are immensely well versed in our HISTORY and CULTURE. You were given a MYTH! None of your music sound remotely like Black American Music. Your music sounds are Latin, (Cuban), and Arab! We couldn't grove to that. There is no Funk. How did you come to the conclusion that Jimi Hendrix was an "Experimental Artists? Hendrix was in Bands with famous R&B, Rock N Roll and Blues Artist before his "SHORT VISIT" to Morocco. He played in bands as early as 1959. He was playing with the Isley Brothers in 1964. He played with Little Richard in 1965. His first solo show was in 1966. He was an established Artists and nothing in his Music reflect Morocco or Gnaoua music. I mean no disrespect but no one in Black American ever emulated your music, AT all! Why would we? We had no need to emulate anyone else. This music wouldn't have even caught our interest. Everyone all over the world including the ROLLING STONES were running to Black America. Why were they not running to Morocco? Please go grift off someone else's culture or better yet, let YOUR MUSIC stand on its own. If it's good enough it will survive. But Black Americans are not Black Immigrants and we will never allow you to grift off our music and culture! Chess studio sessions with The Rolling Stones, Chicago ... rolling stones data rollingstonesdata.com › articles › when-the-rolli... 2 days ago - June 10-11, 1964: The Rolling Stones' first recording sessions in the U.S. at Chess Studios in Chicago, where they recorded their next single ... Many of us see this as an attempt to destroy Black American Culture. So we will waste not time at destroying a lIE with the truth by presenting FACS and we have plenty. Our truth will destroy your narrative and credibility and your music will go with it. They are not doing you a favor. Let him give up Reggae, that's his culture. The BLUES and every Black American Music Genre will stay home! At this point none of you can't be trusted. Jimi Hendrix's short visit to Morocco during the summer of 1969 produced a mountain of erroneous information and fictitious stories. * “In the late 1960s Jimi Hendrix made several trips to Morocco” (source: liner notes for the CD Morocco: Crossroads of Time released by Ellipsis Arts, U.S.A., 1995).

Yes. Always loved their music Now hard to find without autotune and electronics.

@davidlamb7524 I agree with you on this point. The autotune makes everyone a singer.

Hopefully they will stop trying to lie about native North African Amazighs being a kick and will accept that Amazighs North Africans have never being black 😂 the obsession of black Americans about Morocco is weird

edithraw8399 You still don't! It has nothing to do with Black American music especially the Blues. I don't see how they thought they could get away with LIES like this.

@@msrubie11it seems some black Americans wants to be related to Morocco by force. First the ones calling themselves moors, than the ones who discovered Berbers 2 days ago and think it’s one race and want them to be black without knowing the original North African tribe are not black and Touaregs are originally from subsaharian nations like mali and Niger and now Gnawa. It’s getting annoying this obsession about Morocco

​@@gmailyou367exactly, they all want to be Moroccans and create stories as history so they can corrupt our glorious rich culture....

Its also a factual proof that indigenous moroccans and other north africans (berber/amazigh) were not black like some afro-americans want to claim

@@makavelihussein2013 The original North Africans were BLACK. “The descendants of Eurasian invaders in North Africa, including Morocco, Algeria have passed down traditions of the North African Blacks they fought with and pushed south, including the Bafours.”

​@@makavelihussein2013We're talking about the music 🎵 of enslaved Black Africans sent to modern day Morocco

provide proof. I am an indigenous Amazigh. My ancestors are the original north Africans. And I have low melatonin levels @@Afripol

Nobody is denying Black American originality and ingenuity, they are merely acknowledging the chronological genesis and evolution of the music.

You need to stop with that chronological genesis, evolution foolishness. There is no evidence of any connection. They're making claims without proof. Correlation does not imply causation@@Afripol

​@@okra3000may be to you

Thank you! Nor did it in any way evolve from this. They may SHARE certain African origins. But to imply that American Blues CAME FROM this is disingenuous to say the least. Do better.

Well know that guy in the interview corrected it. He said the blues origins were ORIGINALLY from Senegambia and Mali which 100% true. And those same music traditions migrated north to morocco

Wrong! The Blues has no connection to Africa whatsoever, no influence at all. The Blues is strictly a native Black American creation. All claims to the contrary is unproven and baseless.@@salimwillis1400

@@user-ud7ld4rf9b the slaves wasn’t brought by Moroccans arabs or not but by Europeans who used Morocco as a passage 😂 at that time, Essaouira was controlled by Portugal and the port was build by Portuguese that’s why it’s called Mogador.

No discredit to African American music. This shows ties to Africa that Africa is the birthplace. Rock music is from tuareg people, country music from mugithi in kenya, reggae from east africa.

being black African doesn't give you the right to exclude Morocco from its African roots, no matter what your experience or perception of North Africans is. the connection is undeniable whether you are able to see/hear it or not.

​@sami_ek👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯💯

Morocco is found of Moroccans😂 black or withe and yes this is one of the Moroccan genre because there is many morccan music style and others like malhoun and Andalusian are related to Spain, chaabi is popular Moroccan style, Issawa is more spiritual and many others. I will say subsaharians Africans are not found of Moroccans and North Africans because you keep calling them Arabs. You need to understand Morocco is the second oldest royalty in the world and have a lot of history not just with Arabs. Native North African are not black they’re still Africans. You’re problem is you don’t like Africans who are not black and I’m not taking about the ones from European origins like South Africa. I’m taking about real North Africans

@@sami_ekthese people are all over the place. Some wants to claim Moroccan culture, some lies about the native Amazighs wanting to make them black, some call them Arabs, some call them Europeans 😂 sometimes they say Moroccans doesn’t consider themselves Africans and in the same sentence black Africans say they are not Africans 😂

True.

Lies😂 as a Moroccan this is just one genre in Morocco 😂 do you know how many styles of music there’s in Morocco? The Amazighs atlas is not black the Andalusian Moroccan style is not black the chaabi is not black

yes thank you, that's the difference between Gnawa and Blues

Actually it s also music of exorcism, they can make some kind of rituals, i m.moroccan i know that, for some pple it can make them go into trance...

This music has nothing to do with Black American Freeman music.

You are American 🤦🏽‍♀️ dont claim something you are not goodbye

Gnawa music did not appear only recently, as you said, but it was rather present for centuries in all regions of Morocco and particularly the south... For information, authentic Gnawa groups did not use the stringed instrument called Santir. They only played with drums and castanets; their songs were sadder, nostalgic, less danceable than today.

Dude 🤣 plz do more research

Gnawa music is ancestral in Morocco and not a new thing😂 stop talking about what you don’t know 😂 you know how many music styles there is in Morocco ? 😂 from area Andalusian Moroccan to chaabi to dakka Marrakech to reggada to atlas Amazighs 3ayta to hassania in the south to malhoun from north and all of them not related to black because Morocco is diverse by history

@@gmailyou367 And black people are ancestral in Morocco as well, slow poke. Did you watch the piece?
