  • I simple don`t understand one thing: Why so many so called Djembeplayer think, that you have to make as much strokes as possible to get a good rhythm.....just think about some groove in the things you play...just think about the language of the Djembe, using the different sounds....you´ll see, that many times less is more....bad playing!!

  • yes, that is true, but i added this video for different purpose.. this man was making his living by playing on the streets.. and he played for about half an hour.. and although it is not heard, there are many background sounds, so he has to play this way, so he gets the attention of the people passing him

  • FOUR WORDS TO SAY!!!!!!!

    ROCK ON MY MAN!

    This is hot shit and I love how he is enjoying it, he understands the true meaning of Djembe, he is feeling good about himself and I enjoy watching him play! oh Im black by the way for all that shit about white people cant play that you heard me saying on other pages all changed when I saw this guy! This guy embodies the soul, he understand how to feel the drum and he doesnt give jack shit about how it sounds

see all

    i always say let's see the critics videos, show us how it's done, you never do...

  • @petereisen Thats were your Wrong...U see a drum has no format to be played......There is no right or wrong.....yes some are intended to to played ser ways....But lets face it....A drum is played to the comfert of one who is playing it.......And as long as he or she is having a good time and feels good thats all that matters...U see music was ment for feeling.... it is a way to express yourself so there is no right or wrong or bad or good....And yes i know i cant spell but it 2011...........

  • Awesome o.o ...

  • pierdolicie, że słabe co poniektórzy, jak lepiej gracie i macie jaja to wyjdzcie na ulice i lepiej się bawcie od tego gościa, dla niego szacunek, mi się podoba

  • Nice street performance!

  • Cool creative drumming right on God Bless

  • The playing is really quite poor. A begginer.

  • @DjKelavey

    he does not understand the true meaning of the djembe and neither do you. This guy does not even know the very basics of the djembe...can't even produce the three main strokes.

  • Playing a djembe of that size standing.. ain't easy especially if you got shakers on your leg.. Rock on man!

  • i am saying that he is not that bad- you have to have guts to do anything out of the ordinary these days! i play djembe too and i have my OWN STYLE.. videos on my page,,.
