To give an example I would say it's similar to the Umzansi of the Zulu tribe. Being two beautiful cultural experiences but that root similarity touches us at our cores and resonates with us on a spiritual/emotional level that draws us in with familiarity, deep reverence & respect

Passionate displays done out of pride and in times; survival. To call inspiration from those with you at battle/war and the ancestors. Haka & Sivatau although different experiences all come from the same Mana (spirit).. 1/2 see next tweet below

Being a Black/Samoan myself I guess I could try to explain It as best I can without a monologue or a seven-page answer ๐. I'll keep it simple and try to explain it how it at least feels to me if this will help.

So ya boy just got 2 singles in consideration for Grammy Nominations. If they go through your boy will be a four time Grammy nominated songwriter. ๐ฃ๏ธLFG!!!!!!
