What inspires you the most about your tribe, country, religion or ethnicity? There could be a good number of features that drives us towards befriending a country, tribe or community of people based on our level of affection towards them. and so today, permit me to take you around the boarders of Africa my continent and to showcase to you the few acts and arts of this great giants that never seizes from my heart.
Africa as a continent is basically known for her uniqueness and historicals. The dark skinned group of people they referred to as black or afro men, men who knows an applied and technical skill of survival. A group of men who could survive through a den with almost no weapons of defenses, a group of men who understands the ethics of life and the basic equipments needed for survival in a critical state and condition. This is Africa! and I am African!

Africa is more than just a continent to me, it is more than just a group of black skinned men, Africa is a dominating land, a land where her people reach far and beyond to fend for their hometown, a land full of culture and various tribes, Africans are the traditional set of homosapiens, we believe so much in our traditions amd we practice them occasionally.
One of the most thing that inspires me about Africans and the african nature is the diverse tradition, culture and ethnicity. It's really beautiful when you see an African man dressed in her cultural attire.
Permit me to hype this great giants because it is one thing I've always wanted to do in a very long time!
Now I want to introduce two musical tracks that always inspired me about africa and the first is this song by Shakira titled waka waka (this time for Africa)
I grew up listening to this beautifully composed melody from Shakira and it really gave me a beautiful insight and picture of the African continent even though the song became an official song for the 2010 world cup, it still had a lot of messages written on it flaunting africa which makes it more than just a song bit a message across the the 2010 world cup matches!
Another beautiful piece song that inspires me about Africa is a collaborative merge of six African artists from six different countries in Africa fussing themselves together with one voice to craft this extravagant piece tittled Africa Rising featuring
Great music stars like
Davido from Georgia but grown in Lagos Nigeria
Mi casa from south africa Tiwa savage from Nigeria
Sarkodie from Ghana
Diamond platnumz from Tanzania
Lola rae also from Nigeria
All these amazing artists gave in their most beautiful performances to form this Wonderful masterpiece! Nothing excites me more than the collaboration in this music! Merging different African artists across the continent to one table with one voice and all to the magnification of the great continent (Africa), it is one act that made me understand how valuable teamwork is and how outstanding their efforts could be!
These are my most inspiring playlists whenever I want to adore the african nature and all there in. Africa is indeed a great continent, just like every other continents on the globe, but Africa has its own unique nature that distinct us from the rest and I must say, I am a proud African giant! It's time for Africa!
