[AustincaplingerVEVO]

[rhythmkid1]

@AustincaplingerVEVO i can hear what you're talking about, i believe its just a synth midi sample in the song. :)

Makes me smile and amazes me.

[BlindedbyBullets]

Props on the notw shirt no-one else noticed.

[IglesiaGosen]

Bro do u have a piccilo snare off to the side and then the regular snare?

[EdgesRecordsG2]

You should do a cover to LIGHTS' new album: Where the Fence is Low or Banner!

[TheAmbury]

I love the song as it is, but it's about 100 times better with Cobus playing along with it. <3 :D

[photoshopdrummer]

[MrCantha]

[lalalahello2]

I like how he REALLY FEELS the music. Reminds me of the passion he has for music and how it's not all about the money or the youtube views. MUSIC IS LIFE!

[xScreamToRisex]

i was thinking it was the cover of feeling this at first.

[VersaillesYuki]

I HAVE AN (i hope it is) EPIC IDEA!!! how about doing a 3D drum cover?!?

[Mrcreativeusernamez]

@VersaillesYuki i second that !!!!

[Annoyingthing321]

@VersaillesYuki Sounds like an interesting experiment and I know Cobus takes on challenges :D

[CSquared092]

@VersaillesYuki how about no....anything 3d is shit

[Keygan117]

Swag.

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

rrdrums i honestly feel sorry for you. your goal is to tell like 100 people on here that conbus isnt good. its like saying an f1 inst fast. you just want to stroke your ego i suppose, all and all, youre sad.

[ramos150]

@iwillwait hell no

[Mzajification]

ok ok wait a sec lol guys dont you recognize anything ?? lol what you say wont ever work he is a troll just check every comment he is repeating the same thing over and over lol dont bother your selves he fail actually if he is up to the challenge he would post a drum cover of Cobus covers but pff he is a pussy anyway just dont bother replying to that douche bag a failure is ALWAYS a failure

[Jaler11]

@Mzajification thanks , you're right (:

[Jaler11]

@Mzajification thanks , you're right , man (:

[7pcamat]

There's no such thing as the best drummer in the world (let alone musician). Maybe in YOUR time - aka personal preference. But, with that being said, who IS the best? On a side note. I hope you all ruin your lives over this debate, ya fucking tools.

[BrightenHite]

Everything is so perfect in his videos, the placement, the sound, video quality, his hair haha, how he played it, the look, just everything its unbelievable

[rrdrums1952]

1. No record contract ..Not impressed.

2. Average technique and overall plater of only rock. The other genres you can't even hear anythiung but the original drum pARTS. fAIL

3. eNDOREMENTS are pretty easy to get.

4. he is a mommie's boy afraid to tour . Besides no main band is wanting him anyway

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@rrdrums1952 im curious who youre talking about. clearly its not the guy we are watching. sounds more like youre jealous of his talent. Grow up and enjoy it or switch to something else. clearly you dont get whats going on here. He's with drum channel and has been stated by many as one of the best in the world. So basically you have no idea what youre talking about. And mommas boy? how would you know? youd never seperate from yours long enough to find out. what a loser

[rrdrums1952]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy Best in the world???? hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­haha....You're funny,,No band wants him....best in the world???? hahahahahahahahahahahahahah

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@rrdrums1952 as i replied to his page, maybe he should ask neil peart who commented on him being one of the best; I dont know...seems like he might be qualified to assess Cobus better than your 1.2.3.4 laughable , hater talk. I can tell by your name youre a drummer wanna be, if 1952 is your birth year, im guessing your jealous your prime never came close to this. This kid could drum better than you with his ears. so please dont embarrass yourself and watch a cartoon on here.

[rrdrums1952]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy Neil Peart? hahaha. A highly overated prog drummer. Carl Palmer and Bill bruford shit in the canadian bacon toilet that Neil came out of..hahahahaha

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@rrdrums1952 Congrats youve just named one more drummer ( Carl) who has complimented Cobus. And another congrats to you for putting in writing on here how little you know. Now Neil Peart isnt a good drummer? lol, ok pal, tell ya what, post a video of you covering a cobus cover, lets say tik tok. if you ocme close to him, ill post a video apologizing to you, hows that.

[rrdrums1952]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy Show the link that quotes Carl Palmer comlimenting this guy and I'll apologize. Or admit that no link = never happened. Deal?

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@rrdrums1952 you want me to find a link to a comment made on much more music/? ok ill try and ill post it here. So that was slippery, but deal ill try and do that, in the mena time, at least you admit this kid kicks your ass at drumming,

[rrdrums1952]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy Can't lie to you dude. I smoke this kid. he's not that good compared to seasoned pros at all. He's ok . But he's stunted by copying all the time. No creativity.. No band wants him cause of that.

I really don't believe a guy like carl palmer would be interested enough in this beginner ( to Carl's level) to compliment him either.

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 WTF ?! "But he's stunted by copying all the time. No creativity.. No band wants him cause of that." ?!?!' with all the respect: YOU DON'T KNOW NOTHING ABOUT DRUMMING. he's got more than one invitation to bands; listen to the original songs , and then listen to his version. Cobus is the most creative player on YouTube. I've said it 3 times , but I'll say it again: stop talking about what u don't know.

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@rrdrums1952 Oh really>? first of all post and we ll see. But we already know you are a garage drummer at best because nobody here has heard of you and Cobus' channel last I checked had 10's of millions of views. Im not talking about Palmer anyway, carl from dave mathews, he did tripping billies and then commented on Cobus. As well, he only copies??? Every single song is his version of the drums. Im sure some of the original beats sneak in, but the rest is him showcasing. you fail

[Jaler11]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy hell yeah , your right ! rrdrums1952, I command you , walk away in shame

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@Jaler11 And this guy also basically called himself a seasoned pro drummer, read his words. Hes laughable. Some random old hater on here, just stumbled across CObus, has little playing experience likely and doesnt recognize the talent. Hey when children see a contruction site they dont see its complexity either. So this guy showed his cards. im done with that joker, but im all ears for a post. Actually, send it in to drum channel lol see if they bring you in, better than cobus? theyd bdelighted

[Jaler11]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy hell yeah , couldn't agree more !! and look at this /watch?v=9gLN3CuUxvY ; /watch?v=edNEythPWSA ; /watch?v=xE1DNeuUdH4 ! this songs were actually written by Cobus and his band !! that guy keeps talking about what he doesn't know (!), get informed.

[rrdrums1952]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy Dave Mthews drummer's name i sCarter Beuaford moron. You obviously aren't any musician at all. !0's of millions? Dream on fool.. It;s the same 100k teenyboppers that keep going in and out over and over. This Cobus iain';t shit. NO band . Can't solo..hahahaha what a joke. A drummer that can't solo..hahahahaha. Failure. great for 16 and under. Where does he gig? Chuck E Cheese?

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@rrdrums1952 yes youre right, im not a musician, and neither are you. My not knowing his name off the top of my head doesnt change that he said it. Im finished with you. You are wrong, and jealous and thats all it is. Everybody knows what a superstar drummer he is, awesome solo's, makes his own style, any band would be lucky to have him and everyone knows it, even you. So have your last comment, youre in your late 60's going on 15 i guess. and teens? umm im 27 , fail there too. ciao loser lol

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 dude , for the last FUCKING TIME : LIVING AS A SOLO DRUMMER , IS HARDER THAN LIVING HAS A BAND DRUMMER. AND HE HAS MORE THAN 5 SOLOS ON YOUTUBE, DUDE , WT* ?!?! /watch?v=9gLN3CuUxvY ; /watch?v=edNEythPWSA: Cobus and HIS band actually wrote those songs and more. If watch those videos and don't take back your words , then you're a hobo who smokes crack all day long. and also , i'm going to rape you .

[rrdrums1952]

@Jaler11 Checked his solo..hahahahahahahahaha is all a real drummer can say... Kid stuff. Even Travis barker shits on this guy..and travis barker is the most overated drummer out there. hahahaha

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 yeah ? I want to see YOU doing that . besides , I prove more than once , that you're wrong at every setence you made . I don't have to prove you anything. you don't know NOTHING about drumming . You're just one of those trolls who like to piss other people off . Get a life , and admit that you are wrong. According with Facebook , we are 206256 people agaisnt you .

[rrdrums1952]

@Jaler11 Aren't you the guy thta didn't know what the name of Dave Mathew's bands drummer name? hahahahahaha..

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 no i'm not , jackass (: you think that good drummers belong to bands while it's EXACTLY the opposite . Only great drummers can live as solo musicians . Why do you think Dream Theater's drummer quit ? Just forget it , I drum since I was 4 , you're just one of those fat ass guys , who watchs the Simpsons all day long , and hasn't a life for it's own . Your arguments suck dude . Go study (:

[rrdrums1952]

@Jaler11 You're the guy that pretends to be 31 but likes Justin Bieber??? I think that says it all child..hahahaha...I told you nobody over 16 thinks muchabout this Cobus mommies boy...hahahahaha

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 oh yeah ? tell that to his 9 sponsors , and the guys from drum channel , dumbass ! forget , you are no match for the Cobus fan legion . You will NEVER convice us that Cobus sucks , 'cause he's one of the greatest drummers in the world. Get a life , troll , and stop saying nonsense things .

[rrdrums1952]

@Jaler11 Aren't you the weirdo that likes Justin Bieber at the age of 31? HAHAHAHAHA. I think you just are a gay boy that likes young boy meat. that's what Cobus is to you. You're not even a musician.. How many posters of Cobus do you jerk off to? Hahahahahaha

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 no I'm not (: see ? your arguments are nonsense . And I am a musician . I'm telling you , I drum since 4 . I'm going to stop awnsering you now , 'cause you have nothing else to say . I beat all your arguments , and you keep repeating yourself and talking like you actually know sometinhg about music and drumming . have a good life , sir .

[rrdrums1952]

@Jaler11

Aren't you the twerp that likes Justin Bieber? You have a video on your channel that says you do!!!!!!

he and Cobus are about in the same league. U R Mad? Because UR gay?

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 Yeah , I made a mistake and failed the dislike button LOL my favorite bands are Nirvana and Lamb of God , pal ;)

[rrdrums1952]

@Jaler11 Lamb of God??? hahahahahahahahaha and Justin Bieber...LOL...

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 Dude , swear to God , I love Lamb of God , and I hate Bieber

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@Jaler11 youre beating arguments? you are such a petty person. no dont understand the drums obviously, its open for all to enjoy, not just the snobs who are elitest and arrogant like yourself. If you want to argue something go find a debate show. I doubt you can debate well anyway. You just stay on here and stroke your own ego and are likely far more frustrated than anyone because youre the one trying to prove something. i feel sorry for you.

[Jaler11]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy did anyone asked your opinion? (: it's open for all to enjoy , true , but I was showing my point of view, pal. I was saying I beat all his arguments, 'cause his arguments aren't about drumming anymore. You don't know nothing about me. You are the one who likes to show off and be a hero. I wasn't the only one proving something. You're the kind of person that no one likes and can't find a conversation for it's own, so you mess with the other people's conversation.Get a life.

[HorrorMovieReviewGuy]

@Jaler11 my fault, i saw your post and thought it was his, and began to write , as you can see we had some banter before. none of that was directed at you, it was directed at him for being sad. but ya, how would you know right, i clicked post and then read, so just me jumping the gun. i agree with your post and i actually do feel sorry for him because in the end, what made him comment on that? if you were (him) good enough to school him youd be making vids and cashing in,

[Jaler11]

@HorrorMovieReviewGuy okay, dude, no problem (: totally agreeed.

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952

1. He has one , GET INFORMED

2. fuck you , watch other vids

3. HE HAS 8 SPONSORS , NEVER HAD A LESSON AND NOW HE'S SPONSORED BY ONE OF THE BEST MARKS IN THE WORLD , AND HE IS IN THE DRUM CHANNEL

4. GET INFORMED , HE HAD A TOUR LAST YEAR , AND THIS YEAR HE WENT FROM AFRICA TO AMERICA TO LIVE WITH THE DRUM CHANNEL GUYS.

HI H-A-T-E WHEN PEOPLE TALK ABOUT WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW !!!!!!!!

[rrdrums1952]

@Jaler11 Big deal. he played to some other guys tracks BFD.. Where's the drum solo? He's got no band to play with and make records. He'll be playing to records his whole short time as a known drummer. he better start getting a lot better fast or people will get boooored real quick with this copying shit..hahahahahaha

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952

1 he has more than 4 drum solos , search for it online , dumbass;

2 He had a band , but quit , 'cause he didn't liked it, and it's even harder to live as solo drum player , than a drummer in a band, so that means he is really good;

3 He was invited for more than one band and musicians to create songs with them;

4 he is one of the bests , that's why he's at drum channel. the guys in there say he's one of the bests;

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 and 5 his vids are from 2007 and since there he got each time more fans and people won't get bored , and u know why ? 'cause he doens't just play the songs, he changes them.

stop talking about what u don't know. get a life , shithead.

[Jaler11]

is the lights a christian musician ?

[JudoChoppethUrFace]

@Jaler11 no

[rrdrums1952]

Medium level drummer.

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 up yours , pal he's a drumming God.

[rrdrums1952]

@Jaler11 No band with record contract? he's pretty good but immature. He is a momma's boy and can't leave the house??

[Jaler11]

@rrdrums1952 Get informed u don't know nothing about him .

1 He had a band , but quitted 'cause he prefered this life.

2 He is more mature than you

3 He never had a lesson , however he has 8 sponsors , and moved from africa to america, 'cause he was invited by DrumChannel to live there with the rest of the channels. Do you know what Drum Channel his ? Its for the best drummers in the world to teach us. Now, remmeber that he never had a lesson and he was poor guy from South Africa
