1. HMM, I NEVER REALLY THOUGHT OF THAT,WAT DOES IT MEAN??????? wat y am i gettign thumbs down,i really wanna know wta it means sometimes i dont get y pple thumbs others down,wad i do
2. idk but i kno its an african chant or saying
3. I've actually researched it and it's an African phrase but here in the U.S we don't know the meaning.
4. It the name of an African Dance "Makossa" means "Cameroonian dance" "Mama se mama sa ma ma-kossa"
5. i have no idea. i wanna know too. Rihanna copied it in Don't Stop the Music.
6. I was wondering that the onther day but i think it just a weird word he says. Like how he always says hee hee. In wikipedia it says it is an african chant. See link>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wanna_Be_Startin'_Somethin'
7. I dont know but I love that song Michael makes everything sound great!
8. Actually in Michael's list of written songs, it says he wrote Please Don't Stop The Music which would explain why it's in Rihannas song. It's an African chant but I heard it meant something like, Let The Music Heal You or something like that. That's what I was told when I asked it on youtube so I'm not actually positive.
