Sheila E. Drum Solo!!!!

[RoseRed515]

damn.

[smonky5]

I've gone my entire life believing that girls could never compete with boys. When I started drumming, I thought this was especially true. I had never seen any girl drummer be good, nor decent (Meg White a prime example), but then I stumbled upon Sheila E. Thank you for opening my eyes.

[wwwatl]

The woman RULES the cans! She is amazing. If you haven't seen her live; shut the hell up! Very very few can even come close. Personally i dont think anyone can touch her.

[Myatuck85]

She gave me chills.

[poseidon26ful]

prince best drummer

[drummerjim6977]

I love it!!!

[kemba69]

[AishaWpo]

[DaSlyfaux]

Ok...Ok....Who da f*** didn't enjoy that. You talentless piece of dogs**t. Bow down to Drum and percussion royalty. All 68 of you!!!!1

[richievegas01]

Jaw-dropping. Check out her performance with Prince at the Brit awards about 5 years ago. Amazing.

[dixielatino]

[dixielatino]

[blackrockdude1]

SHE'S BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD !!!!!!!!!

[jmv7318]

Holy shit ....

[missallstar13]

Nice

[Rallestudio]

She plays to fast for me to understand what drums she's playing on :(

[elefantevoador365]

Probably the people who dislike this because of the voice parts.

[12321booger]

@elefantevoador365 Right. It doesnt really fit with the drum parts (just my opinion).

[DexterHaven49]

She's good at bangin.' ;)

[ariharveykinkle]

Regardless of gender, Sheila E. is one of the best drummers ever.

[TheSlipknotMaggot66]

She really is good.

[TheTBone3798]

True improv a real artist plays from the heart

[Wykydsynr1]

ragrapios is not a drummer. thinks he is. nothing but a turd on the ass hairs of a dog. wanna be bitch!

[ragrapios]

it sucks bunch of idiot...

[goatcheez81]

FOR THE 64 PEOPLE WHO DISLIKES HER, FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

[turbobass36]

@goatcheez81 FUCK YOU TOO!!!!!

[Corkskrew999]

@goatcheez81 LOve at :24 when she begins her song, as a percussionist

[Corkskrew999]

[DrummerZful]

[Jimmiedrums1]

Sheila's Dad and Brother Juan Endorse Lento Percussion's Triplet Drum Glove.

[CoolDRMONEY2002]

[jef6649]

She's A Perfect!!!

[alejocore1995]

VERY GOOD!!

[STBNY]

No lipsync anywhere. This is real stuff :)

[TMclaughit]

this version NEEDS to be recorded and sold. I'd buy it. GO SHEILA

[animefan1128]

Excellent, I cant believe thatpedal work with ONE foot!

Btw are those silver cymbals any different from regular cymbals?

[animefan1128]

Excellent.I cant believe thatpedal work with ONE foot!

btw are those silver cymbals any different from regular cymbals?

[groseron]

I'd like to add, further praising Sheila E., that unlike many top drummers, she's NOT only a drummer, she's an all round percussionist with a solid discipline in various rhythms. She may not be the best, but she's definitely got something special.

[ivan89705]

exesperous

[eleano29]

she's fast. really impressive. but there aint a lot of rhythm..

[finowa]

@eleano29 there's rhythm all over this. it's another thing if you can comprehend it.

[AleekahTV]

badass! that is all

[ebb1004]

Sheila is tha shit!!!!!!!

[Leibug]

hell i can't spell... r u fkn serious? Much Love Sheila E. One of my greatest idols from the 80's....mucho grande besos

much love princess *big smile

[Leibug]

R U, fkn seirous? Much love Sheila EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

one of my idols for the 80's forever. Much love momma *big smile

[noeleaser]

FYI Sheila E's Godfather was Tito Puente.. True story..

[luvthatjaz]

Much respect. True talent needs no affirmation from the masses. Sheila has proven that talent plus honing your skill not only transcends, but takes us along for the ride. Thank you.

[genxxxersize]

@jgpjdrum using "caps" gives you NO authority pussy! *backhand*

[Asianbeast777]

At first I was thinking, "man, sheila e. makes it sound so pretty." Then of course, at 1:28 she just bursts out into a solo. My expression: Whhhaaaaaattttt??????? :) just so awesome

[enigmaduo]

there's really no point in comparing icons. it's like comparing apples to crowbars. buddy rich is an icon. desi arnaz is an icon. steve smith is an icon, tito puentes is an icon, neil peart is an icon, etc, etc, etc. you're a moron that thinks that you know everything when really all any of us knows is NOTHING. grow up, cretin.

[whatheavensaid]

HOLY!!!!!!!

[Erasercannon]

Carla from scrubs???????!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!­?!?!

[TOPRALE]

the only musical thing about this happens when she sings.....

[celgrl28]

Amazing!!!!!

[joey92blink]

60 bass drums heads

[mssquirrely]

60 Haters in the house! They can't walk and chew bubble gum and got the nerve to thumbs down....."Sheila E" is the baddest female percussionist alive, now KICK BRICKS!

[aiccu]

@mssquirrely 60 unhappy people. Their life must be boring ;)

[ThomasMetal75]

She way to many sound sources and goes almost too fast at times for me!

[djgq20]

I cant even see the cowbell lol

[stymie86]

I knew she was great on timbales, but to see her behind a set adds a whole new perspective on her awesomeness

[notecages25]

If you guys really wanna see something cool, check out Sheila E. drumming with Tito Puente and her dad!!!! That video is pretty badass.

[pabloindustries]

Now who's the weak sex? :P

[TheMojoBeat]

I actually don't care if you're a woman or man, but since alot of people like Sheila just because she's a female drummer I'll give you a tip: Terri Lynne Carrington? She kicks Sheila's ass in all aspects! She's not just a good female drummer, she's a terrific Drummer with capital D.

[wmbdaredevil]

Dude .. after seeing a girl that kicks my butt at drumming .. i want to go look at porn .. i mean uhh quit drumming

[ReggiPickle22]

she is an amazing drummer but no offence to her she is not he best singer

im a drummer myself and i definetly see her as a role model

[06livefast]

holy fuck this chick kills me

[1232firefox]

sheila is a great drummer. And not just for a girl, in general. Gender isn't even a factor here. She's good, and that's all that matters to me

[Snowvdo]

Sheila E. THE BEST

[terrorizerr1]

she is good but hillary jones is the best!

[irena7777777]

@terrorizerr1 Hilary Jones is a male doctor.

[terrorizerr1]

@irena7777777 what?

[irena7777777]

@terrorizerr1 Google Doctor Hilary Jones.

[terrorizerr1]

@irena7777777 what the hell r u talking about? male doctor? she is a great drummer and a beautuful girl!

[irena7777777]

@terrorizerr1 I repeat, Hilary jones is a male doctor. Google it. You tube it, find out for yourself. Hilary Jones is a male doctor.

[Drummerboyy26]

Sheila e is a killer on the drums xD

[BrewandBrock]

@Kelavmeister LMAO!!!! maybe just maybe still Sheila was the one who did it 1st.

[BrewandBrock]

@equallyeasilyfuqyou i agree and its much more easier and simple

[derDennO]

haha :D shes great!

[MetalDrummer776]

defintley the best female drummer of all time

[chantalluku]

@MetalDrummer776 dont forget karin carpenter!!! from the early days!!!!

[JazzDrums69]

Love it.

[derDennO]

Thats TONY ROYSTER JR WITH LONGER HAIR!!!

[koby84]

ahahahahah maybe she's better ...that dude can't sing i guess

[TheLoneAngels]

Her father was the drummer of Santanas band......

[BrewandBrock]

@dellabrook No Problem i understand, sometimes when us musicians discover amazing, young, up-an-coming talent when get so captivated by their skills that we feel that they deserve to be in the same spot as, or can contend with, other great musicians because the talent level is so high but at the same time we must remember the musicians that came before us, they,ve already been through the same journey that the next generation is on so in that sense we must honor and acknowledge that.

[heinzie5]

im useually pretty quick to criticise female drummers because im always thinking "she is pretty good......for a girl" but this lady can definately cut it with the men. fuck it she kicks most mens asses xD

[mrspeeebeee1]

@heinzie5 She ***'s their asses and then some - Sheila E cuts some mean riff on that kit!

[izzy32324]

@heinzie5 so your telling me she can hang with dennis chambers, buddy rich, blakerichardson, tony royster jr, steve smith, gavvin harrison, thomas pridgen, thomas lang, and derek roddy????? yeah i think you need to over look that dumbass

[enigmaduo]

@izzy32324 ...are you saying that she can't? i'll put her up against dave weckl, steve smith, buddy rich....ya know what? whoever you want. the lady can play.  what's your answer to that now, idiot?

[samgomu]

@enigmaduo @heinzie5 she has her own style .. her own thing - like DWekyl has his own thing .. music is not a sport and at their level they don;t think about whopping one another's arse...They are just playing at a level of mastery that you don't compare anymore - it just comes down to personal taste... and whether you like them stylistically or not... how fast a person can play, or the 'grooves they know' is nothing to do with musicality

[samgomu]

@heinzie5 SO AGREE!! I have just watched some vids on youtube of female drummers of varying skills, ages and SIZES! ? and comments made are 90% rude, sexist or drawing attention to the fact that she is a female, spunky or NOT? and can keep time? wow how odd? .... answer?  get over it! yep get over it .. Sheila E is one of the best DRUMMERS.. the fact that she is female is secondary. As a drum teacher ALL the women I teach have as much ability as men - like any instrument....

[MrJuico1337]

@samgomu Well said.

[BrewandBrock]

@dellabrook WOAHH!!! WOAH!!!! LETS CALL TIME HERE HOMIE LOL!!! TAYLOR MOORE IS GOOD NOW DONT GET ME WRONG SHE,S PROBABLY THE BEST YOUNG DRUMMER NO WAIT MAYBE ONE THE BEST YOUNG DRUMMERS OUT CAUSE IN CASE U FORGOT, THERE,S ANOTHER YOUNG LADY OUT THERE ALSO NAMED TAYLOR GORDON AND SHE,S MAKING LOTS OF WAVES TOO AND BESIDES MOORE IS STILL FAIRLY YOUNG SHE,S ONLY ABOUT 17 OR 19 I BELIEVE SO SHE STILL HAS TIME TO PROGRESS AND GET BETTER BUT WHEN U TALK ABOUT SHEILA YOUR TALKING 20+yrs experience

[dellabrook]

@BrewandBrock Exactly 

[dellabrook]

Emmanuelle Caplette and Sheila E. have got to be the two most bad ass female drummers out there.

[s1eja]

[69venger]

[Richardbr1000]

Sheila E was no joke on the drums. She did her thing. For real. And she's bad. 

[screenscanner]

[BAAH4000]

[Cessnagirl1]

[tbrockhouse]

I have always loved Shelia E. She is one of the baddest drummers ever known!!!!! Get it girl!!!!

[THERANDIES1]

[vladd001]

[HALCONAZUL05]

Uff...you are simply excellent. For me that's a pleasure see you play drums. Thank you for that. Bye.

[ipanemaish]

Yes the gal can play those drums and she can sing.that drum solo explodes like a volcano!love the cuban thing in the middle where she goes to the cowbell.What rythm,and then to come back with those vocals,damn just pure magic sheila.she could do a whole concert just drums and vocals on her own.help i cant stop pressing the replay button!

[amystonesbytch]

She murdered those drums! people who say she "sucks" can suck Iguana Dick!

[mariomusico2010]

[ballin392]

that was the most rediculus solo that ever see

[clarkewi]

Sheila E rocks.

[yoginiclare]

She is awesome! xxx

[mrstexas777]

No one is better than Ms. Sheila!!!!

[zmgriffith]

This solo sucks. She sucks.

[tophertube]

@zmgriffith which part sucks? the part where she plays killer chops, the part where she grooves her ass off?, or the part where she sings the #1 hit that she wrote? Very Clearly she can play.

[skiddlecrumms]

@tophertube The part were she stops.

[mdamp2005]

@zmgriffith, what gives you the right to say Ms. E "sucks"?, even if you could play, I know it 's not better that this solo. A drummer would give her credit so i know you're not one. keep the negative to your self. not needed. MAP

[ransisua]

whoah. she really got a lot of power. very rare to see that on female drummer.

Bad ass performance.

[linearrecords12]

can you name one guitar, drum, or bass hero that come out in the last 10 years?

[sticksbangskins]

[CORNP00]
