Indigenous African musical and dance expressions that are maintained by oral tradition and that are stylistically distinct from the music and dance of both the Arabic cultures of North Africa and the Western settler populations of southern Africa. African music and dance, therefore, are cultivated largely by societies in sub-Saharan Africa
All sub-Saharan traditions emphasize singing, because song is used as an avenue of communication. Because many African languages are "tone languages," in which pitch level determines meaning, the melodies and rhythms of songs generally follow the intonation contour and rhythms of the song texts. Melodies are usually organized within a scale of four, five, six, or seven tones. In group singing, some societies habitually sing in unison or in parallel octaves with sporadic fourths or fifths; others sing in two or three parts, using parallel thirds or fourths. Songs generally are in call-and-response form.
African traditions also greatly emphasize dance, for movement is regarded as an important mode of communication. For this purpose the dance utilizes symbolic gestures, mime, props, masks, costumes, body painting, and other visual devices. The basic movements may be simple, emphasizing the upper body, torso, or feet; or they may be complex, involving coordination of different body parts and intricate actions such as fast rotation, ripples of the body, and contraction and release, as well as variations in dynamics, levels, and use of space. The dance may be open to all, or it may be an activity in which one, two, three, or four individuals (regardless of sex) take turns in the dancing ring. Team dances also occur. The formations may be linear, circular, serpentine, or columns of two or more rows.

Beutiful sudan. ... ( 3 months ago by Buurdhaab)

Beutiful sudan. love that country and ppl, their arabic lan all that. What do Somali and Sudan have in common? The music, u got it right! Ugly Habesha(ethiopian) r moving their stinky ass everywhere in Utube. Bad music, bad language, bad culture, corrupted ideology, aids-infested, backwarded-ness, western ass-kissing, mental slavery, inferiority-complex and more. We wish world without Habesha. And that's possible. One atom bomb, one strike, Habesha is gone for good forever & ever. Peace at last!

Nop. Eritrea ain"t Habesha. Eritrea is better than that. That's offensive! Eritrea doesn't eat raw meat and ass-kiss the west. Upoos.. u got that one wrong. Please stop chasing after free nations, they don't want u. I hear everywhere Habsa(ethiopians) crying after eritrea. Grow up and learn to give up that nation. They r free & enjoyin their independance.

Every day, in the ... ( 3 months ago by Spass105)

Every day, in the barren lands along the Sudanese border, young Eritreans risk their lives to flee from their country. According to sources between 400 and 600 Eritreans a month make this dangerous journey. Most flee poverty and others try to escape conscription . Eritrea, which was already desperately poor, has poured money into weapons and its military since the war with Ethiopia that ended in 2000 but failed to resolve the border dispute between the two countries.

Abraham, sympathy, the gifted man, his family, n us/funs. He had so much to say of the rigm Esayas what he is doing to my belove Eritreans.There is in Black American Community "don't snatch" meaning don't tell who kill who.That is going on in my beloved Eritea some are afraid if they tell, they are going to next, some are just ignorant especially who live in America, should speak out for the innocent Eritreans, who r starving 2 death n vanishing from the planet by this evil action.zeyhalf diu!!
