[gruibingen]

Amazing !! He makes it look so smooth, effortless. Speed, coordination, feel... it's all there. Inspiring.

[bellissimofutbol9]

@paradiddleman33 they took turns soloing during a jam sesh, nothing " wrong" with that

[paradiddleman33]

Sad that the bassist had to stop playing. I guess thats what happens when what you play doesnt apply to the ensemble....

[Redrum1shot]

@paradiddleman33 Yeah because this was a serious paid gig in front of thousands at a prestigious venue.... Chill out , he was just showcasing a few chops during his solo during what I'm sure is just a jam.

[quentintheman]

those are some damn sexy gospel chops. fuck the haters, keep on drumin.

[Hoodstar138]

DAMN!!!LOL..DUDE A FOOL,,,

[vehill03]

This man is a BEAST on the kit. For this video to have 10 dislikes is absurd. True Talent. The Bassist deserves props too because he is owning that 6 string.

[vehill03]

This man is a BEAST on the kit. For this video to have 10 dislikes is absurd. True Talent.

[tamaplayer22]

[cptdupuy]

@youngprincesmusic kinda hard to miss

[sweetfly66]

in my opinion that bass player is way better on his instrument than the guy on drums ... dude on drums is good , above average ...but thats it ... just my opinion .... and before anyone starts with the " shutup hater " crap ...i dont hate anyone ...this space is reserved for opinions ...i am giving mine

[ohe1118]

The bass solo is superb! =) I'm blown away!

[musiq123]

OMG!!! who is that bass player!! dude is nasty!!! teach me O master lol

[snoogle100]

I'LL start by saying that session drummers are the best in the world no matter what people think, evenn if people think that yes mainstream drummers are good but no this good. And second I am so happy I met this guy at my local guitar center just chilling and he blew my mind. Being a drummer i also kinda use my own representation of his fills

[johnasmaurice]

[djkells3]

[colormechanic]

[ArmaniDeleon]

[Sheldon9564]

Thomas when you did your solo all a saw was the matrix, You brothers are blessed, GREAT COMBO!

[twistvid]

Man, I love a good bass and drum groove. A good bass player makes you want to play.

[musikaddik]

killed the bass!!!!!

[5va]

SICK!!!!!

[JCS1Cor517]

I'm so incredibly happy to finally see a video of a drummer who can both lay back in the cut and just enjoy a good groove and shed, and do both well. Not to mention the man has great technical skill. It's not all about speed, and he actually understands that.

[kulevrah]

que hijo de puta

[putnam914]

thats the bird flu

[ngadrummer]

both of yall were killin! but omg that bass player was deadly! specially on his solo

[laydeezman217]

[xronderful]

i hear some "lose my breath" within that bass part haha

[hipponutsack]

that's what i was thinkin...hah

[wptrackstar]

this sounds nice the bass as a nice groove and the drummer did his thing and could the bass player post a video on how to do tat groove it nice I want 2 learn how to play it.

[fowlkesboi]

marcus phillips is a beast

[juckadings]

Hi, Anyone have a Tutorial, Lesson or something explaining how he does the Stick Spin in the "End" of his "solo? Thanks

[davedadrummer03]

[stringmachine2000]

[harmtouch]

Wat?

[ijbdrums]

[badboybr09]

haha No one will ever play like a black man. period lol

[odeiotube]

Great

[TheHp22]

shut up

[spamtree]

calm down man.

[JulianP0SADAS]

Shut up fucking hater.I bet your one of the millions of people that were blown away by a travis barker vid.DUMB FAGGOT

[HDCRdrummer]

@JulianP0SADAS i still think to this day that travis barker is a mediocre drummer.

[lenlenposadas]

@HDCRdrummer don't get me wrong, i never said travis barker can't play, the man can play that's for sure.

[jamesdancer73]

@JulianP0SADAS how could you be blown away from travis barker?

[thebonerman7]

this is a bass/drum jam.they're having a laugh.this 'gorilla' is one of THE best gospel drummers in the world.and i think you'll find that his re-entrance at the end of his solo (after a rallantando {aka deliberate slowing down}) is perfectly back in strict time.5 licks?open your fucking ears. Fills executed in gospel drumming are VERY complex and pay attention to VOICINGS.There are thousands of possibilities.perhaps you should be CONSCIOUS of that before talking shit again...

[domenmoney]

un fucking believale man. thats such beautiful drumming

[raiders1815]

@thebonerman7 who are u even talking to?

[fingerlickincrazyfro]

Lars Ulrich is a great drummer right? Only the white man knows how to play?

Gospel is one of the most creative styles of music where drums are concerned. It isn't all straight forward one tempo basic rock beat - this is probably why you also hate Neil Peart.

[backbeatbobby]

you talk shit

[Moog167]

Uhhh I'm sure he's played with a metronome because he's locking with the Bass player.....Calm the hell down....

[Sic4ce]

sickkkkkkk!!!!!!

[ixjiggawhatxi]

sick stick tricks

[stringmachine2000]

love the groove

[AnthraxGoodybag]

I can play this, just a lot less cleanly lol

[nanzeegeorge]

good musicians both of them. However, the drum drowns out the guitar. Concentrate on blending.

[MichaelG1V]

maybe cause its actually a bass.

[josh78413]

the power of TRIPLETS....HAHA

[FrizzyDiouleBiGbonus]

ca va t est bien nourri

[glandouilleman]

woarf, on dirai qu'il bouge jamais son cul de sa batterie le bonhomme, mais i déchire!!

[alexbenjaminsean]

mann this is a sick beat man i would love to play to this man i just sounds soo clean ...

[singagurl19]

ugh.....im weak

[simdrummer2]

He reminds me of Eric Moore!!

[NYCGERSON777]

great video. you guys are amazing musicians. i want to learn to play drums like that. any specific drum rudiment i should learn to do some of those drum fill you do?

[maremmanomania2]

great sounddddddddddddddddddddd ciao made in italy from meeeeee...

[bignmusic1]

that bass is bigger than him but he playing it though

[nooniehlw]

yes sa

[rrdrums110]

double club blub plays like buddy miles

[fowlkesboi]

dude is a beast on bass

[sickpack82]

don't know but the blacks have an incredible feeling down to their grooves. Esp. seen on the gospelchops videos, awesome

[purity4your11]

RLL man, thats what it's all about.... that seems to be the gospel chops riff that these guys have down to a science.... great video.

[ijbdrums]

can u explain more, i'm a young drummer

[andrethebest1]

this is awesome

[jcorderandfriends]

at like 3:04 he just goes crazy that was awesome

[artikelmusic]

man this is ok, but type in search brian blade, the 1st video should say solo and listen to that!! thats something else...

[XA2I3RX]

Dude, every freekin drum video I go to, you are in there sayin "Thi is ok, but check out yada yada yada.... That's something else"

Give it a rest man. Of all the times I have seen you post, I have not ONCE followed your advice, take a diff approach.

[artikelmusic]

ok maybe my approach aint the best, but maybe you should check it anyhow as u might actually like it! why dont you check it out then actually let me know your honest opinion?? im not looking to argue on here,just want people to hear brian blade...

[phlalanx]

these dudes got it!!! Shows just what you can do with a bass and a kit!

[XxDanRemxX]

Which one's nickname is "big"?

[sickpack82]

guess who...

[MickChiltone]

Great stuff!These guys are great.I have just posted a few lessons as well.Type in Mike Chilton drum lessons.Thanks.

[lethbptl]

I guess JonJon Webb out of St. Louis stole the bass line from Marcus because he is the one credited with that line and then Divinity picked it up from there. I've seen a lot of musicians to this day and I'm telling family everybody can play and has something to offer to the language.....Jross

[crack87]

hahahah very nice :)!!

[lmzdrummer]

He played this bass line before Beyonce' came out with her song.

[brianbf1986]

Stop with the racism, people suck at times, not a whole race. Generalizations are the evils of society.

[washington1]

bass line from...beyonce?

[geoff12446]

:O I thought he was just ok until about 3:07

[Bassmanj511]

doesn't Marcus Phillips endorse MTD???

[up4fun52]

these guys got groove!!!!!

[vaulterman24]

That was the definition of tightness

[LilTe04]

These are some truely anointed musicians. Continue to let God truely use you both.

[rrrickflair]

no disrespect to your religion, but these guys have put in an insane amount of practise and work to be this good. to discredit their dedication, work, inspiration and passion, and say "nah, that wasn't you, god did it"...man, thats so disrespectful. if they said a prayer 1 day, like, "god, i want to take up drums and kick ass!" and from that day they were suddenly amazing, then u could thank god. otherwise, please credit the musicians.

love the playing here, good vibes. merry christmas y'all :P

[nuges01]

rrrickflair, my friend, you have misunderstood. That is probably the best compliment you could pay a gospel musician. Happy new year!

[rrrickflair]

happy new dude...we obv don't agree but thanks for keeping it cool :)

[RvLver]

Totally agree with you rrrickflair. I don't believe in God, and I respect totally those who believe in it, but thoses guys reached this level by themselves, by practise and perseverance. Not by praying God. And they totally deserve respect for their work. Sorry, but that's what I'm thinking.

By the way, this video is awesome. And those John Blackwell's tricks... Wow!

[rrrickflair]

glad at least one other can see what i'm on about!

i mean, where does this thinking end?

you come home and say to your wife, "my boss said that because i've been working 80 hours a week for the last year to help them out, they are giving me a huge raise." and she goes, "thank god for this blessing!!!"...no way! it's the dude's hard work, obviously!

[alex99722]

yes its his hard work.......but WHO GIVES HIMM THE STRENGTH 2 WORK????? HIM? HE GAVE HIMSELF STRENGTH??????dude i c where ur cummin from i think u should credit the drummers but in all things give thanks and who better 2 give thanks to than god?????????

[rrrickflair]

mr mcree is a human, with a will of his own. if he decides to work on the drums, thats him, not god. if god gives us the strength to do everything then i'll just sit on my ass from now on and say "god just ain't giving me the strength". its a cop-out, man.

also, tho i love drumming, maybe god could take some time out of his "hot drum licks for tom" schedule and add it to his "stop paedophiles" efforts.

[alex99722]

once again i understand what ur sayin but remember ask and you shall recieve.

nowadys unless u or a family member of urs have came in contact with a "pedo" not many people ask 4 help with that kinda stuff the go 2 human society and stupid crap like that they dont pray 2 god as they should.

dont getme wrong u have a point but there is a better chance u will c some one prayin 4 a sports team or some singer to go platinum than prayin 4 deliverance from these "pedo's"

[666satanification666]

Fuck fucking yeah. Fuck yeah. This must be proof that black people are way cooler than us whites.

[Toogood2007]

Man you need a friend

[666satanification666]

White people suck and you know it.
