Ilu Aye - Obatala video by DennisFlores.com

ILU AYE (Literally, "The Drum of the World" in Yoruba)was founded in 2004, to celebrate the connections between the peoples and cultures of the African Diaspora. Bringing together the next generation of Afro-Puerto Rican, -Dominican, and -Cuban percussionists and singers, ILU AYE is dedicated to preserving and promulagting the rich cultural legacy of Africa in the Americas and the Caribbean, through performance, educational workshops, and community-centered gatherings where the rhythms of the African Caribbean reign. Trained by master musicians from all three islands, and versed in sacred and popular rhythms such as bata, guiro, rumba (Cuba); bomba and plena (Puerto Rico); and palos, salves, and kongos (Dominican Republic), ILU AYE interprets traditional songs and reinvigorates the genres with original compositions by renowned akpwon, Osvaldo "Bembe" Lora.

18 anos depois e esse vídeo continua fabuloso

[@mavinga]

yo this is incredible, the spirit of mother africa is so alive, that brother has the spirit of our ancestors in him, as hard as those who dont understand have tried to kill the spirit of africa they failed to realise the spirit of africa is beyond what you can see it is the spirit of all of mankind the origin of life

[@bartolo333]

Maferefun Obatala Hekua Elleunle Hekua Baba Y que Obatala sigue bendiciendo a Ilu Aye

[@Ogbeni]

it's is very interesting to see how the Lucumi-people have brilliantly been able to preserve the essence of Yoruba/Anago heritage and traditions in the face of tough vicissitudes of slavery...although there are nuances in the pronunciation of words, the preservation is very scintillating...and one truth, I am learning so much about Yoruba heritage from you Cubans than I ever learnt in nigeria.
