!!!!!Point of correction!!!!! Further research indicates that, the group for the Nwomkro album is called Nana Baayie Nwomkro. It was led by Yaa Abrafi who happened to be the group's lead vocalist.
I really appreciate this music, Got my African ancestry results back and I'm 99.4 % Ghanaian 🇬🇭🙌🏾❤😌
We need to keep our Ashanti heritage by ensuring that our kids speak as well as understand twi. we mustn't be ashamed as I observe some parents to be. we are ASHANTI. if we truly have any idea what it means to be one, then we will do to embrace this beautiful by impacting the MOST TO THE MAX on our kids who are born and bred in affluent parts of the word. its ignorance to feel otherwise from my perspective. we need to travel back home to Ghana with our kids to see the historical aspects of Ghana waylay more. take out to villages instead of just excessively westernised places like Accra. Please lets help each other to keep our very little Ashanti culture history of adowa, Kete, nwmkoro etc. and the twi language as UNTAINTED and alive as possible.
just got my ancestry results back. I'm 96% african 14% Ghanaian. love my ancestors forever 💪💪💪
For those asking for translation When English is not ones first language sometimes it's very hard to translate. Im an Ashanti Royal from Ejisu great great great granddaughter of Nana Yaa Asantewaa. What makes it difficult is because in these dirge music, a lot of metaphors, ideoms and proverbs are used and honestly i dont know how to translate to English. I wish i could. Sorry. Maybe some Asante scholar will find this request and translate accurately. .
In my ancestry, I am majority Ghanaian and Nigerian!! It’s so wonderful to finally know my culture and my people, there’s so much more history and culture way before slavery ❤️❤️❤️✊🏾✊🏾💯
I’m a Muslim and I always comeback to listen to these asantes traditional songs, Wey powerful songs
That’s my grandma nana yaa Abrafi of fawoade may your soul Rest In Peace ✌️🙏🏽❤️
I stumbled upon Koo-Nimo and this beautiful music as a young white boy traveling West Africa for the first time in 1998. So blessed to have met and studied with Koo.. Such beautiful, kind, caring people, music, culture and tradition. Long live Ghana and the Ashanti heritage. Beautiful.
"Asanteman" A peaceful Warrior Tribe. Very Spiritual song.
I cant wait to go back home and get on the dance floor. Home sweet home. Long live Adowa Nnwomkoro
I'm African American descendant of black slaves....my grandfather looks just like these people I know in my heart I am mostly Ghanaian...
This was my intro song to adowa.I remember my mother dancing to it one weekend
This song really sent chills down my spine ..........Proudly Asante...Proudly Ghanaian.....

Asanteman tease! Otumfuo Osei Tutu II Peawwwww!
Ghanaians we the best l am still a Ghanaian. I love Ghanaians culture
Can anyone imagine what we have lost?! If all the Great Afrikan groups developed without interruption, Afrika would be one very mighty place just like it was during the Ancient period of KMT.. I know it's no good dwelling on the past and what could or couldn't have happened but I can't help wondering...
May your beautiful soul continue to rest in peace Oduanani Abrafi🙏. I missed you granny 😭😭😭. It's exactly 10yrs today that you left us😭😭😭
if you have love this try "aleke" the traditional music of the Suriname maroons, we most are akan okani kromanti slaves descendants.
