This is a Ghanaian folk song of the ashantis in Ghana west Africa
it is sang as a tribute to the Ashanti Warrior Queen Yaa Asantewa who help the Ashantis fight the British During times of African Colonization by the Europeans.

I was inspired to do this after listening to an album by one of ,my late mentor OBO ADDY.Obo Addy was one of the pinoneers of African Jazz and World music and also one of the greatest Master drummers from Ghana.
