Kevin Aviance "Din Da Da"

[@null9590]

Just gave a nasty 2 minute hand performance. I love this so much. This is art in it’s purest form

[@kshillingford4921]

the devil is a liar. null indeed.

[@psychoshamrock]

Aviance was lucky to survive a broken jaw in 2007 due to a very nasty gaybashing incident. Couldn't perform at Pride parade that year with a wired jaw. This lady has taken a lotta sh*t and is still fabulous.

[@rainbowgoddyss82]

I remember this. I remember seeing him walk around Chelsea (where I believe he was attacked) all the time, in his heels. Without a care in the world. Because he knew he was in a safe space until self hating homophobes decided to be stupid. God bless and protect him. Forever legendary! 🙏💜🙏

[@Ejexion]

You were actually calling him a "lady" 10 years ago?! You're fucked.

[@rossriviello8051]

I remember when that crazy shit happened. Has it been proven that she was targeted for being gay? I always had a gut feeling that someone from the community had a hand in it.

[@dariolopez2882]

Watching this 20 years after it was filmed and still in awe at how amazing Kevin was and still is... he paved the way for many

[@DiscoSmokeWV]

Left the White Party early and saw him perform this right in front of me, early Sunday morning at the Palladium. It was without the props in this video, and to this day probably the most impressive solo performance I've ever seen. He was a staple at Jr's Arena at Palladium, and I enjoyed every performance he shared with us. Thank you Kevin!!

[@michaelbruno1330]

That was like 1996 or 97!

[@TheHollywoodList]

I remember him from SoundFactory

[@Qu33n]

Thanks to Beyoncé's Pure/Honey, I discovered the gem known as Kevin Aviance!!! But I've always heard this song in Vogue/Ballroom compilations and never knew the musical genius behind it!!! 10s!

[@essjayem6498]

Din Daa Daa (The Album) George Kranz..... Way before this version. Which is pretty good....both of them....really.

[@Qu33n]

@@essjayem6498 oh my gosh thank you for dropping this knowledge! So Kevin's is a cover to George's. All this history happening!

[@essjayem6498]

@@Qu33n Yes. It is amazing. Bey's lyrics are pretty drenched in house history. Love it.

[@just6564]

Me either

[@internetrambo4928]

He..she..what ever, is not the musical genius behind it. Its a Cover

[@jbmonmouth]

I saw him "WORK" the crowd at the GLBT Expo and words just can't describe the talent that Kevin shared with us....Mother was FIERCE!!!!

[@nickH2009]

I love that people feel the need to leave comments stating how "gay" this is.. as if he didn't know. anyone who is this comfortable and brave with their sexuality is fully aware of all the labels that may or may not be true for who they are.

[@wendychong8823]

Gay

[@tyroneshaw5892]

Getting my life.legendary beat.

[@psychologicallyspeaking]

This is freaking ART!!!! It makes me SWEAT!

[@Chelz12]

Guys is a legend gay or no gay. That confidence in him is more than half the straight guys I have met. Don’t need to tell you but I’m straight man.

[@satori03]

I don't think gay or straight..i just think this is Brilliant forever

[@cryingzombie]

This is why I'm glad I don't judge people. good remake of a classic

[@AAwildeone]

Brava Kevin!!!! I know you've been through a lot for being who you are, as well as for our community. Just wanna say a very humble THANKYOU

[@markmenez4097]

memories of house in the 90s and Kevin is one of the pioneer vocalists of it !!

[@MatarazzoJorge]

show !!!! magnifico !!!!

[@jachoreefer]

Again not the original, George Kranz look it up

[@_exsencefx]

@@jachoreefer George kranz took his vocals from African sounds so he himself is not the original and even if he was Kevin did it far better

[@1730michele]

Huuuuunty!!!!!! I did not know who sung this but I loved it when I was going to the clubs. It's now 2022 and here in Baltimore, when it's house music time, they play the hell out of this. You deserve all the praise

[@principe401]

Kevin rules. This was ArenA craziness. He was the hostess of every Saturday into Sunday and mind f***** my head up with his performances. There is no one like him on the planet. Also I remember him performong this at Palkadium and they used lights I have never seen before. Ahhh to go back and appreciate that moment better. Xoxo to all that know what im talking about

[@brooklynpanther5540]

ONE WORD TO DESCRIBE MS. KEVIN LEGEND A FUCKING LEGEND IN THE CLUB SHE KEPT THE GURLS VOGUING DOWN WITH HER ANTHEMS BACK IN THE DAYSSSSSSSSSS

So passionate and energetic, appreciate and respect drag culture and vogue beats, dope song

[@TheMocaLeenie]

I still love the drop! I remember the club erupting at that point, with everyone feeling the soul in it.

[@aMAN2luv]

I love this beat still.worked it out on the dance floor many times!LOVE you MISS Kevin Aviance! !

[@PositiveZ7]

Such artistry and talent. How many people can sing sounds and keep you watching!? I just found Kevin through Kevin Hey Queen, I’m obsessed.

[@24lisabeth]

Kevin rules! Saw him at Night of A Thousand Gowns 2016 and his visage was dazzling as always.. He is so buff too..amazing artist more more please

[@zanderr81]

Gaaging 4eveah🌈

[@poetofreason]

I for one am not a gay guy on drugs....i have neither tantrums nor do i suffer from outbursts and I enjoyed this very much. I think that some old people age with a young heart while others forget to enjoy the simple things in life, one of which is art. at 29 years of age I found this to be both simple, yet entertaining, mainly because it took me back to a time when things were a bit more simple than they are today. Think back to when this song first came out, and compare things today. you'll see

[@creplekid]

Wow, the artistic part was off the chain, and with one of my favorite songs.

[@screwface1011]

MAN!!! We use bang the hell outta this right here. I mixed it so many different ways I can't even remember. Thanks for posting this.

[@romyv1077]

One of the reasons why Roxy is so much fun every Saturday. Kevin is an ICON, before Drug Race their is KEVIN!

[@rossriviello8051]

I went to a concert sponsored by a NYC radio station on Long Island in June 2023. Kevin Aviance was one of the guest hosts, looking ss fierce as ever.

[@lambastedpolemic]

Never get's old...great song!

[@beledigrrl]

I get so proud of the beauty of black queens when I see this! This is amazing :)

[@thewoolf]

hey kids Kevin did a great version of this song! the original of this song is from 1984 from a german musician: Din Daa Daa by George Kranz there is a musicvideo on youtube as well

Beautiful ,Simply Beautiful

[@FredericaBimble]

I remember dancing to the original in the club back in the '80s. This is a good remake. I also remember the DJ playing 'Front 242's' 'Welcome to Paradise' which had a sampling of that hypocrite preacher Jimmy Swaggert in it. Great tune.

[@franklinfuentes]

'DOO DOO DOOM, DOOM-DA-DO-DOOM'! THIS VIDEO IS SO CLASSIC, ALL CONTRIBUTORS' CONTRIBUTIONS WORKED TOGETHER SO EFFORTLESSLY/ SEAMLESSLY. THIS IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHAT 'CAN' HAPPEN WHEN YOU HAVE A STABLE OF PEOPLE; FAMILY, OF ALL VERY TALENTED PEOPLE. EA., JUST GIVING 'ONE' GRAIN OF THEIR OWN SAND.. BUT, TOGETHER, EQUALLING THE ONLY BEAUTIFUL BEACH! ;)

[@jaumais01]

Such. Amazing. Memories. Saw Kevin Aviance perform this (and Cunty) live.

[@JogaOhio]

You know it's sad people have to bash everything they watch. I used to go to ARENA (at the Palladium) every week and see Kevin work this song into a FRENZY, which was more than this video. The video is fun and a great way to showcase some of his talent. Kevin is an amazing artist with a passion for music, fashion, and dance and should be celebrated not bashed! His songs are full of energy and fun and if you can't appreciate it don't watch it!!!!

[@djuri0612]

absolutely incredible performer

[@miachaymang2444]

Miss Aviance slayed this out of existence but totally off subject, at 2:52 the background high pitched vocals remind me of Sonic 2s Chemical zone. . .maybe Masato Nakamura was inspired by that who knows
