[dco627]

3:24 Double bass with a single pedal. Tony is a God on the Drums.

[JFender13]

@dco627 hes actually alternating in two's between the floor tom and bass but still sounds amazing (:

[MacMic333]

Totally killed.Superspeed licks - everything right.

[onil15]

tony royster is the best drummer ever!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ray24drummer]

tony royster is miy all time favorite drummer and he killed it in this video with his solo

[ram33l]

the singing was dope too. and he play the bejezus out of those drums on his solo. that was absolutely sick!

[Yardboar2]

beasty!!!!!

[cjamal1]

Man i agree drummers like tony , spanky, and chris daddy dave are on another level creatively

[VOBallin]

woah!! tony is a beast man!! this nigg is going inn hard on this vid, it seems like every youtube video he has hes getting better and better!!! aint no one better than him realtalk!! i like to see all the drummers in the world line up to battle him LOL thatd be dope

[prodrumreece]

hey this is my birthday! and im a drummer too.. Tony is a beast!!

[JaylanA456]

I agree heis the best!!!

THUMBS UP!!

[CallMeMrWally]

im surprised the drums did not catch on fire!!!!

[cmartinjr2]

that was sick

[jayflash87]

i just wanna know who is better than tony...please help me i been lookin....he or she must not be on youtube...

[Eheynike]

@jayflash87 i guess its up to opinion. bt i mean technically he's right up there and as far as feel and creativity he's def right up there. as a musician & a drummer he's the best in my opinion & i'm a music student.

[bumscinelli]

@jayflash87 creatively i think spanky is better, but skill and ability wise Tony is def wassup

[grooveman69]

@jayflash87 ronald bruner jr & my boy Chris Coleman are right up there with tony. Two different types of drummer though. Ronald has ridiculous chops and Chris gotts that mean pocket

[myzticalls]

grande tony!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Depletethestate]

this is where tony gets out all the stuff he couldn't do at the jay z show awesome

[jayflash87]

sorry jerrick im a fan of all of them you named but tony is more skilled and gifted than all of them on your list..and tony already got pridgen.. i know you watched the video...but they all are good

[kennethb214]

Tony is the man in my book!!

[JerrickJones]

All that are sayin he's the best, look at for Jonathan Davis, Eric Moore ii, Ron bruner, skeeter, Thomas pridgen, third iii, all these cats. These guys can give Tony the business at will, check em out.

[1stclassrecordings]

@JerrickJones u didn't see the thomas pridgen tony shed? look it up. tony in another league.

[VicenteKidd]

@JerrickJones there allll great drummers but not as versatile as tony. most of those guys r gospel cats. but tonyy can kill any genre

[pw1234100]

mayn.! wtched this agess ago.

fahhh hes sick.i wnt to be like emm.:)

his rolls are like sick assss.dayym

[mrtitanium85]

[jrock162000]

omg omg omg tony the fucking man

[dedrummaboi]

does anybody kno what this song is called

[YBGrind]

Freakin You by Jodeci

[musicalfazz]

How good is Tony Royster.....you the MAN.

Great song, very nice feel to it. & some great singing.

[YBGrind]

Tony Royster is one of the very best.......can play any style. His fills are a work of art AND he can do fancy stick flips and shit all up in the middle of em. DAMN!!!!! His pocket goes without saying.

[chozinwun816]

goes to the edge of the pocket but never goes over. love it!

[sergioz07]

yeahhh one of the best drummers in the world,, his ideas are cool!!!!!!!!

[Fefesk82]

jst a beast

[bigdude786]

is it me or can u tell that all of them grew up in the church....hmmmm

[PearlGroove]

yes you can! I lived and played in memphis for 7 yrs and there definately is a "gospel/soul" feel that never leaves no matter how hard the drummer tries to abandon it.

[diontew4]

@bigdude786 lol everybody say dat you a church kid can't never fit in no matter how hard we try

[zildjiansbestfriend]

@bigdude786 DEFINITELY! They sound like praise n worship leaders lol

[keebrown09]

awsome dominique my ex just told me bout this he plays the drums at church!

[stratotanker518]

The best drummer alive. Debate, anyone?

[neri65]

100% agreed

[SteefStevens]

as long as Elvin Jones is Alive(is he??) it's him.. Don;t forget Dennis C.. Royster earned a lot directl from him... and Virgil Donati.. Vinnie.. man bless for al those great drummers. fck who's the best!!!

[lileulileu]

5 stars for

SteefStevens!

[streetzac]

he really is!

[Stefan990]

to stratotanker518:

Tony Royster is by far the best drummer. This is video of Tony going slow. Tony can go much faster than what is shown on this video.

[dawnnix]

best drummer in my books

[jabriyan]

tony you made me made lol

[esledge3]

you mean mad? LOL

[ninjadrummist]

Tony's playing is on fire in this clip! He's always good but I think this performance is especially good.

[kortedfranela]

[purutupak]

[willywonka9385]

[Supaflylexi08]

Amazing!!! Tony is da Best, an da Dudes singin were Amazing...L0ve it, listen to it daily!!

[lslmiller]

This is just insane. WHOH!!!

[PTHCBoys]

Man should kept goin Tony was feelin it I want hear the next song he did.

[DAJ2BTTS]

Now, Dat dont make no sense. There are no words to describe Tony Royster Jr.

[iamdabeastofdadrums]

Pure perfection

[drelivesforGodalone]

If you think Tony is the best drummer in the world in 2009 give me a thumbs up. I CERTAINLY DO THINK HE'S THE WORLD'S BEST DRUMMER!

[rob4ra]

nah,not yet.maybey in the future

[drelivesforGodalone]

I certainly think he is the best right now. Man, I don't know... But... What - can't - he do on the drums yo?

[bigxjon91]

he's deff one of the best but u gotta think about the other young guys like bruner and pridgen cuz they all got crazy skills

[drelivesforGodalone]

Well, true true.

But, to me, there is something about him that gives him the edge.

Maybe that's why I rate him over all the others.

[EnriquePage91]

man it's different styles... look at Royster, I mean, he grooves fuckingly amazing, but Thomas got his things to that make him an amazing drummer; I've never seen someone break a beat the way he does, and still sound amazing.

I'd say these two, Pridgen and Royster... man, They'll be fucking top stars in some years

[drelivesforGodalone]

Well, I guess I can just simply conclude that we all have our opinions on who we think is the best and so forth.

And about the different styles, you're right about that. But, I guess I just personally like Tony's style over other Drummers.

[misterriddlez]

no, you're right. Tony is the better drummer...omitting "feel" Tony's covered more ground.

[maxiedobson]

Isnt it painfully obvious from the tomeas pridgen and tony royster video that tony was killing him. Tony is better hands down, but im not saying pridgen aint no beast, just royster is better

[misterriddlez]

I couldn't have said it any better.

[drelivesforGodalone]

Well at least I got peeps on my side. :)

Thanks.

[maflirt]

this dude knows his stuff

[drelivesforGodalone]

Yea, Tony sure does bro.

[Invisoskill]

@drelivesforGodalone and dont forget 2010 and beyond!

[drummagn3t14]
