My God, you never lose it! I got goosebumps listening to this. It's what I grew up hearing in the 7th Ward. When I was a kid playing football for Tambourine & fan with the Hunters, it's what we heard during the games from the bleachers. Folks used to bring the tambourines and the base drum, and that's what motivated us on the field. I'd never want to grow up anywhere else but New Orleans.

The Golden Crown a song derived from the song Iko Iko Ade which is Youraba people of Southwest Nigeria for "Golden Crown" arrived in New Orleans in the 1700, and 1800's during the Spanish and French rule has been sung for centuries by blacks in New Orleans. Deriving from the songs and dances at Congo Square in New Orleans where enslaved Africans from areas of Senegal, Gambia, Benin, Togo, Nigeria ,Congo and Angola where allowed to gather on Sundays sing and dance as they would have in Africa .

My favorite video on this channel. The sheer energy generated from this group of people with just a a bunch of tambourines is staggering. God, I wish I could have been there.

Shows how the culture of Africa was able to survive in some ways in the US in areas that had large black populations. The rythms are reminiscent of tribal rythums in parts of Africa. It reminds me of how celtic songs and ballads were preserved in the Appalachians even after they had died out in much of Britain.

I'm from London, UK without a connection to this movement or its history. But still I recognise the ancestors when I hear them. Salute.

Africans would play congos, kalimbas( thumb pianos), tamborines, small flutes and trumpets Congo Square it's syncapathed beats, dances, and music is the genesis of Jazz music and is responsible largely for the Very African culture of New Orleans including our secondlines, Jazz funerals and the Mardi Gras Indain culture. Iko Iko Ade is a song from the Youraba people of Nigeria Iko meaning Golden, and Ade meaning Crown.

These people are not African and has nothing to do with Africa! I get tired of you Africans always thinking that we came from yall...we don't have your culture nor do we eat the same or look the same...this is indigenous to our land...we are the real indians of the land.

This is not Jazz and Jazz is not from Congo Square. Jazz is essentially the Blues with the addition of brass instruments.

@Da Boot Arawak (deported by the Spanish from South America for labor) Carib (deported from neighboring islands for labor by Spanish) Incas (deported by the Spanish for labor from Peru) Natchez (deported by the french from Louisiana for labor) Yamassi (sold from the Carolinas from the british to the french n Spanish for labor) lucano ( deported from the Bahamas by the Spanish for labor) on the Indigenous side. You don't know your history. It got African elements but most them slaves came from the americas and it is WELL documented and yes they were "black" people.
