[WuddleLove]

[ShannyRAWRx3]

[lizme99]

I CANT FREAKIN' BAR. goddammit. better find a different song haha.

[maconcountrygirl]

@lizme99 I can't do it either! My fingers are too small! Curses!!!

[316SR]

Thanks for the Vid...But when you get to the Wo Ho section 5:16, it's not the same and sounds WAY wrong when i play it. Plus you then move right into the rapping.

If it was the same you would have keep playing & not stumbled over yourself....and stopped.

Thx for a start of a song dude

[meekyschannel]

thanks man and good job on showing the chords instead of presumeing they know them ! :D like me i dont know the chords

[halfacig]

I can't get the strumming, can anyone offer some advice?

[Tillriker]

Thank you for the Tutorial!

[FreddytheBeard]

@ReenuhNigguh5252k11 Yes but his real name is Travis and I refuse to be a derp and call him Travie.

[johnnyconboy]

when you play reggae you strum on the up beats and not the down beats that might make it easier. also im not sure about this on uke but im pretty sure you use upstrokes. just wanted to throw that out there. great vid tho

[LeviRockerSk8er]

it should have up not down strums

[Kizzy10Luv]

What kind of ukulele do you have?

[joannaledezma]

[SirTryHARDtheIV]

[surferd00d981]

[trajicishere]

Best tutorial for this song!! Keep it up and thanks a bunch :)

[djjdc3]

Keep it up! Your doing a great job :)

[jonodl]

To tune your uk U can use a piano

The keys are:

the first string is the first G to the right of middle C

The second string is middle C

The third string is E to the right middle C

And the forth string is A which is right next to G to the right

[sphiney]

Dude, your video may not be that interesting to watch because it was not in HD and kinda bright to look at but you did your best and pulled-off an outstanding tutorial. Keep it up and soon things would be okay for you.

Great job.

[Minhstaaa]

[surferd00d981]

[TheUnknown535]

[Ambeeakayellowrocks]

Really good but could tell me the notes !

[annieksr]

you seems pretty nervous. lol. but still good job. It does help alot. Just that I'm still not quite sure of how you do the strumming? Do you just use your index finger or all four fingers?

[Jay2Sick]

@Dolliwood121

First Part- G,?,E,D

Second Part- C,D,E

[elmokid15]

@Jay2Sick i think its B

[GraemeKirkwood]

[GraemeKirkwood]

@BrokenCYDE10100 B flat (Bb)

[BuFfNeSs12321]

@GummiBearMakeup well for beginners you shouldnt be playing a song like Billionaire. Try an easy song like Perfect Two.

[145Jerome]

Hey does anyone play and know what kind of strings he's using? Steel or nylon? I need to play it for a show and I'm not sure. utopian316@aol.com

[FreddytheBeard]

@utopian316 I use Aquila Nylgut Strings, which are nylon based.

[Xxerict808xX]

at 2:00 what did you mean by first 3. Did you mean the first three on the 2nd fret

[FreddytheBeard]

@Xxerict808xX Yes sir, the top 3 strings on the 2nd fret, also known as a D chord.
