27 April 2024 I'm here, do listen to Brenda Fassie my black president and Johnny Clegg an Siyavuka asmbomanga, today sharing the music history with my children on this freedom day ❤
back then, as a small kid in Kenya, we had a programme called 'music time' that aired on our national broadcaster. the presenter was one Fred Obachi Machokaa and boy, we wdnt call it a day if this song (plus 'we miss u manelo' and 'i need some money') ddnt play. we wd get dwn and try to do the 'mapantsula' dance too! to date (20somethn yrs later), i still haven't mastered the dance!! these were music that united Africa. i miss those days. much love from Kenya Chicco!! shout out to my SA peeps!
khamis athman oooooh those days. I actually have done a sample from his some I need some money. I hope it will bring back that vibe when I release it sometime next yeah if we are all alive and kicking inshallah
If you searched for this song it doesn't matter about your age, but know that you have a unique instinct in terms of music spirituality,, you understand the worth of happiness in African music,,chicco you were a blessing indeed 🙏
You can listen this song over and over, you dont get tired of it - just listen to the beat! Imagine oneself on the long trip with the one you love and, eish!
In Nigeria, my dad would play these songs along with chimora, Yvonne chaka chaka and Hugh Masekela while my sister and i rocked to it. Great, sweet memories.
Meanwhile,some of us were enjoying the likes of Prince Nico Mbarga,Les Wanyika and Franco Luambo. It’s funny as I remember,our parties were heavily influenced by west African music along with our danshiki silhouettes.
How does listening to old South Africa music put me in a space where I think I’ve grown up in South Africa and I’ve never been to South Africa. I’m from Zambia and the nostalgia of listening to South African oldies is just gold I feel like crying . Wishing I was born in that era
OMG! Tribute to my Mom! Every birthday she would make sure she played this song! Good memories, it just hit me that growing up in the 90s in Nairobi was a blessing in its own right!
Reminds me of my Late Uncle Eric, I miss him sorely 😭 I especially miss how proud to be black he was and how he used to gather all of us as children and made us sing and dance to such beautiful songs with so much positivity ❤
My father was working in Gauteng, he used to come with his songs and this was one of my favorite songs back in early 2000🤞i really miss those days and my father's soul may continue to rest in peace❤🕊
I feel crying, Thank you so much God for keeping me alive. I'm here with you in 2019.when I had this song in 1988 I could start dancing and daddy tell stop and do the work and go to school.
I was eight when this video played ..still enjoy the video and the kid in red just kills it .. Simple lyrics no swearing and sex talks ..Gone are those days..
Ohk Chicco reminds me of my youth days, early 90s when South Africa was still peaceful country. When ladies were still dress with dignity not what we see today
Nice to see the old Johannesburg vehicle registration plates, similar to that from Botswana and shared with us by the British. The British have kept the same system of a yellow back plate and a white front one.
I wish i could get comments from the 2 masters with caps dancing and just here how they felt dancing to this tune in early 80s they are champions there moves in dancing are killer ones,chicco we miss you where are you.
A breed of 80s no twitter,wasup just music and this was a big hit in kenya,and if you listened to this in 80s man you are a quality vintage,music time show on kbc sanyo tv sanyo radio and radio cassette,love from kenya
Welcome on board chicco twala here in central Kenya,we listened and remember your sweet music that used to play in our national radio in those hey days through our legend dj John karani. Hongera chicco.
🤣 🤣 Indeed many of us did that.. I will be like "mines are volvo, yours are BMW and yours are benz", let's start counting, the one with many cars is a winner 🥇
Watching in 2018. Memories of Nairobi growing up watching Fred ombachi machoka on music time, on our black n white Toshiba TV... Such an innocent time. Kids today are born immune to watching & enjoying stuff like this. They dont even know how to play outside wuthout ANY ELECTRONIC DEVICES. Such a shame. Im glad im a child of the 80's 💃💃💃✌👋
Kwani watu hawajaelewa this comment?the owner meant the song brought memories of his childhood days growing up in Nairobi. I also remember growing up with these songs on music time. Wakalelu and obachi machoka. Good old times when music was really music
I used to love and admire this man. His contribution to the South African music industry is immeasurable and thanks to my parents I was exposed to great quality music from a young age (I'm a born free, 1994) but after what his son Longwe did, robbing the nation of our number one goalkeeper Senzo Robert Meyiwa and how they both contradicted themselves on national radio and are yet to be arrested for murder and defeating ends of justice, bo sefane mperekele, I have lost respect for him. Maybe one day justice will prevail for Nzori
Reading all these comments on various African Golden Oldies music channels makes one realize that Africa is one. Just a shame that we can not work together to make it GREAT. Let's make African Great Again as it is supposed to be.
Been in South Africa for 18 years, never heard this song since my childhood in Congo and to read from the comments, this was a hit in many other African countries.
Last Thursday we had nurses night out themed vintage Sofia town.waoh the dj did not dissapoint,he really reminded me of the 80's where each evening music will be played loud at a certain dinthaa tarven.i guess they hard a very good music box as its sound would reach far as our home.thr good old days.we really had fun
Indeed as an East African, this song made our childhood during the middle of the 1980s. For me coming from a war torn Northern Uganda this gave the only happiness then. Great memory although it was hard times.
Wau.the young junior Chico in red.father like son.memories will never die.nice times ti be remembered. My elder brother favourite songs.Rip brother.you were humble and star of south African music .
Love looking for new African music, so far, EVERY song I LOVE IS South Africa music. hmmm Talent out there I see!!! I love the sound of that instrument he's playing and the kids and the dancing, YES!!!

How does listening to old South Africa music put me in a space where I think I’ve grown up in South Africa and I’ve never been to South Africa.
I’m from Zambia and the nostalgia of listening to South African oldies is just gold I feel like crying . Wishing I was born in that era
You can say that again
🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣🤣 Glad to be an African, what a feeling to see these kids enthusiastically enjoy it to the fullest 😂😂😂
I love this music so much
This was mid 80s. This music defined our childhood. I have a lot of respect for Chicco. Love from Uganda! 🇺🇬
Walai 👌 I love his music 🎶
OMG! Tribute to my Mom! Every birthday she would make sure she played this song! Good memories, it just hit me that growing up in the 90s in Nairobi was a blessing in its own right!
South African songs entertained Ugandans largely nothing I can add on, big love. 👊🇺🇬❤️
Yes Wandera, i agree with you. must have entertained ugandans those days than South Africans.
The kids have rhythm- who can best that!!! Little boy in red and little girl wearing hat have killed it!!! 😂
Reminds me of my Late Uncle Eric, I miss him sorely 😭 I especially miss how proud to be black he was and how he used to gather all of us as children and made us sing and dance to such beautiful songs with so much positivity ❤
I was born 1981 and I used to listen to this music,I love south African music ,love from Uganda
Love you too
Greetings brudah
I love d music
Same age here

2022 and this song still sounds fresh. Reminds me of my wonderful childhood days! Thank you Chicco. 🙏🏾 🙏🏾
I can see myself during holidays ! Life was so good then
@@mlionea Aki old is gold.
@@mandawood6454 I tell you. My dad had a nice record player. But sadly is gone .
I'm still listening to it right now.😭😭😭💚💚🔥🔥
It slaps hard
2022 we're still here, what a great masterpiece it is.❤❤
Back in 90s we used to own only 2 video cassettes, Chicco and Lucky dube. Never got tired listening to these legends.😁
My father was working in Gauteng, he used to come with his songs and this was one of my favorite songs back in early 2000🤞i really miss those days and my father's soul may continue to rest in peace❤🕊
I feel crying, Thank you so much God for keeping me alive. I'm here with you in 2019.when I had this song in 1988 I could start dancing and daddy tell stop and do the work and go to school.
I was eight when this video played ..still enjoy the video and the kid in red just kills it ..
Simple lyrics no swearing and sex talks ..Gone are those days..
The beat is amazing especially the bass that makes the whole song a classical masterpiece. Chicco is a Legend
The beat as I'm listening
Ohk Chicco reminds me of my youth days, early 90s when South Africa was still peaceful country. When ladies were still dress with dignity not what we see today
The bassline still slaps just as hard as it did on my 9th birthday in Zimbabwe back in the 80s
When music was original and touched people's lives. man! artists of today can learn a lot from our legends.
when music was music.and boys were boys.we could travel miles just to listen and dance,even without money
Grew up in the late 1980s in Botswana vaguely remembering hearing such songs
I was born in 1997 but am happy my grandparents exposed me to this legendary kind of music.For Africa.
Old music from South Africa was a real deal love from Uganda 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬
Nice to see the old Johannesburg vehicle registration plates, similar to that from Botswana and shared with us by the British. The British have kept the same system of a yellow back plate and a white front one.
I was born1966 and now it reminds me my father.....
Amazing! In the pre-Mandela days we had so much happiness coming out of SA despite the pain and struggle. Proudly South African
Indeed this is what kept us going, these songs bring tears.
Agree
Brandon you blessed me whit does words
That sweet time in life, wow am feeling it like 80s, miss those days 😊
This song was a big hit in Kenya back then, that's why most Kenyans will be here.

Malema was already predicting his future by putting on Red
Bring back this moments mannn we enjoyed on sanyo radios Short wave no social media but we always managed connecting.
Been in South Africa for 18 years, never heard this song since my childhood in Congo and to read from the comments, this was a hit in many other African countries.
