[jasononbass124]

Both these guys are inspirational to my bass playing! but i must admit i love rafikis style better!! his sound is so fat and pure!

[jasononbass124]

4:29!!!! beastly!

[bemolable]

Awesome look for Bubby

[dillikins]

That's the current state of bass, hmm - play stuff that would sound like mediocre noodling if done on guitar but because it's done on bass it makes some people's jaws drop. Ughh. I think you are playing the wrong instruments my friends...

[bonesworld2]

@dillikins Actually if a guitarist played the same it would be impressive. Wrong instruments? I think not. Aren't they both string instruments. Does everyone have to do the same thing on each individual instrument? I'm just sayin'

[chriskeyz]

@dillikins I think you have a point to some degree but what their doing on their instruments takes many years of practicing and a gifting to get to that level. Their really talented individuals.

[HavocBillz]

@dillikins its only jaw dropping because this is mostly done on guitars. We're in a era of music where bass can lead a song just as well, if not better in some cases than a guitar.

[theroyalpriest]

One of the most ridiculous bass sheds I've ever seen or heard!!

[PSPGENIUS714]

[1stclassrecordings]

[VicFirthBeast7]

lol thats a coincidence my nickname is bubby too :o

[toofpick151]

Im sure the Snoop tour is cool, but I 'd love to see Bubby tour with someone else that would let him be able to do more of stuff like this, like a Rachell Ferrell.

[jazzmac03]

Woooo!

[Bassmanj511]

the way i never get tired of watching this...

[carloscs5]

I hope these dudes stay humble and never sell the talent God has given them. Amazing Talent!

[MegaKd123]

that's right..GOD HAS BLESSED ME WITH THIS TALENT 2

[JKwoftw]

If playing with the rappers Bubby has played with isn't "selling the talent God gave them", then I dunno what is. Don't get it twisted.. Bubby is sick with it and not too many people would turn down the gigs he's gotten, but they aren't exactly spreading a Godly message in their music.

[alexfunkii34]

@carloscs5 they use their talent for pla

[Cambodia69]

@carloscs5 - It wasn't "given" to them and it's not something that can be sold. It's simple - they enjoy listening, creating and playing music, and they practiced because they were inspired and wanted to improve. There's nothing supernatural going on here; no mystic powers, spirits, ghosts, demons or magic - it's human nature. It's an insult to give credit where it doesn't belong and these guys didn't get to this level without the work they put into it.

[saxking1604]

@Cambodia69 You Clearly Wouldn't Understand and Totally missed The point, We were all Created Equal Yes but What Better way To Thank God For Creating us than To give him offerings of Our Expressions in Music, and of course It takes practice and Effort to get to this Level But Not everybody makes it, So many are Called to the Field but Only or Just a Few are Chosen to do so.... Credit Has Always Been and forever will be God's If you believe it or not... You have Intelligence But lack in Wisdom!!

[19zo82]

@Cambodia69 If you ask these guys, They'll tell you where "it" comes from and "who" they give all credit/glory to......God my friend

[CedCed02]

That's "Iron" sharpening "Iron",..right there!!!

Just crazy talent!!

Man ya'll preachin'!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!

[BKD414]

Its skill and technique like this, that will have me up practicing all night or until my fingers fall off, I admire their so called lack of not knowing how good they are LOL, what ever guys, keep doing yall thing.

[01Biggs]

its great that they think they're not good b/c it shows how humble they are. once they start sayin they're the best thats when they start to really suck.

[aris9aris9]
