Dance BATTLE - AFRICANs move the BEST!
I remember a couple of days ago I was arguing with a couple of friends who kept insisting they had other places that performed better. When it comes to MUSIC and DANCING everyone should know this originated from the mother continent and we've perfected every type of dance. Yes, we have maybe copied and also adapted western ways but no one gets down like an AFRICAN. First off it's a continent so comparing an entire CONTINENT to the likes of small nations like Jamaica or even large nations like Brazil wouldn't be fair.
Just check out some of these videos and tell me we aren't the best.
MUSIC is our thing, everyone else has sports, technology, progress, money, riches whatever but don't try to COMPETE with Africans in MUSIC. It wouldn't even be right, do some research and first try to learn how many categories we have in MUSIC. Bolingo, Soukous, Bongo Fleva, Reggae, Rap the list is like 30 Deep wit genres

AFRICAN THEME - NYC Party for Jesca's BDAY (Crazzy Turnout)
This was a NITE to remember, the most difficult part was to let a person like JESS approve a budget to be able to party like we wanted to. Balling on a budget is never fun! We were able to meet in the middle and did not spend too much. At this event people showed up from every corner, from DC to Ohio all the way even from Texas. Everyone was delightfully dressed in their top African wear and as the nite passed they changed clothing to throw down. Anywhere, where kuna wabongo it's guaranteed you have to start MDUARA for them to get hyped. As a DIASPORA for the TZ Community the best example we can serve for people back home is showing unity. Maybe politics and business isn't our best endeavor but just by simply getting together and having fun, gives our people back home HOPE & HEART. People miss BONGO, meeting up gives you a little bit of that back.

Students RIOT causing more than $30,000 in DAMAGE
Damaged CAMPUS with BROKEN WINDOWS showing students displeasure |
I just read this article it's actually in SWAHILI.
These kids are gangsta and much respect to them.
I think when matters get to this point the FACULTY is at fault.
One student doing something terrible is one thing,
a small group is always common but the entire campus?
