Sloppy? That shit's tighter than 90% of the videos people post on YouTube. And the action's fine on that bass...what in God's name are you whining about?
Yes, he's African and plays bass. So what? They should be the owners of all bass guitar companies. They use bass and so many talented ways. Including the blues. This man is very talented and has many years of practice. He is probably one out of the five bassist I've ever heard of. Keep it up
How come black guys who play bass always have long hair? Not saying it's a bad thing. Quite the opposite, I see a black guy with long hair and I'm like "oh, he's probably a musician... and he probably plays bass." I saw a black guy with long hair walk past me at the airport once, and I just KNEW he was at least a musician, and probably a bassist. Then I saw him at the baggage claim carousel... and sure enough he was picking up bass guitar case (w/guitar obviously inside).
Hello everybody this is PJ, I recently have been reading the comments and some of you all are very nice and thankyou for your great comment but some of you are down right rude, wrong and racist. Remember you don't have to be that way. It is always better to be nice.
@Tephladon Its dee-lite who sang groove is in the heart, you even said that shit twice and you don't even know who sang the song, stop posting shit on the internet and go read a fucking book you fuckstick
@kelthanius not., it is however the music that influence this type of playing and style that would be gospel, funk, rnb, hip hop.and most white people wouldnt have heard of like marvin sapp, john p kee, fred hammond, sly and the family stone, ojays, kool and the gang, donald lawrence, miles davis. do u know these artist and bands? if u dont know, look them up. i really dont like when somebody singles out one race to something,really lol even tho im black and the bass is my primary instrument.
@dsonbass Amen brother, it feels so good to read this cause it's so rare;most of people are stuck in this racial thing and it's so stupid "i wish i was black so i could play the bass naturally" :/
CULTURE people, not COLOUR!!! and if you didn't grow up in that kind of culture, investigate, be curious...
haha its ridiculous to see some people attributing this talent to skin color, i see we might have an epidemic of little white bass players thinking theyd be better off black- its a soul thing, has nothing to do with color haha oh god but definitely nice thumb work man!
it's obvious that bassgroove21 is'nt a bassist himself,because this brother is showing some serious skills. i'm a bassist myself and i know real skills when i see and hear it. this man is very fast and he sounds great. thanks for posting this outstanding performance.
really nice, a lil after the into part, sound like this one song, but dammmmm. your relly good! think of puttin thee skill not only on youtube but to the whole world???
he is most certainly not one of the best bass guitar players i have ever heard he's fast and slapping but it sounds like crap. No one wants to hear that on stage
if either its "blood" or "culture", thats just words...
and youre right on this one...of course i dont question that...there are/where many good musicians without any difference about colors ect.but what i wanted to mention is that feel this music gives..the joy it makes pump out your ass when you listen :)but most of this bloodpressure rising music (i´ve) heard where made by furry lewis,robert johnson,hendrix and many others.
yea...i just noticed but anyway...now i can check for performances or records with bands or bigger "authorities" and anyway...anjoy good music!thanks man, keep up
just amazing viewing this from 18:00 till 21:00 xD
