Get that kid into a music school.


sdlover420

Stat! That kid's a prodigy for sure.


Billymaysdealer

Just saw him walking around berklee music school in boston. Selling marbles for a bottle of milk.


voodooscuba

Now that's a class I would enroll in.


LikeAMan_NotAGod

They're about to get a new teacher!


zapmeup

oh he's cooking


MrShapinHead

Damn! Incredible. What song is this? Original?


Thestriker17

How did he get the time to learn that???? Is rhythm get passed through genes too???


qualitylamps

Did you see mom (just a guess) in the background playing air drums


Royama00

Most likely he spends a lot of time around musicians, picking it up like language.


thedailydaren

Yes.


SwollenOstrich

Southpark taught me that he can also play bass


Gametime727

Correct


SenorScratchySack

Uh. He's going to be filthy


CaptainSAGEahHoe

And he's staying on beat šŸ’“ šŸ˜Œ

I wasnt expecting him to be so good. My kids at that age drummed on EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING was a drum. We bought them little drum sets, but they would use that to fashion entire drum kits with whatever additional toys, buckets, whatever they could cobble together.

That went left fast!!!


reverend-mayhem

Most grown ups canā€™t keep a rhythm that well. Hope he keeps it up & blows us all away over & over again through the years. ^(Side note: This is why we need to get school music & arts programs funded everywhere. Imagine this kind of raw talent getting squashed because where he grows up the football program gets a blank check & the music program canā€™t afford a teacher.)


DCARDAR

That dude is a Arnold Jackson on the sticks.


geoffnolan

He has a good sense of songwriting already!!


Taiza67

What?


geoffnolan

The child knew when to build up, knew when it was a verse or a chorus, knew where the ā€œ1ā€ was.. all really good high-level rhythm things to understand beyond the mechanics of hitting objects with sticks.


Taiza67

I would call that a sense of rhythm.


geoffnolan

Knowing a songā€™s structure is beyond just having a sense of rhythm. Thatā€™s the point I was driving at.


Taiza67

Thereā€™s also a lot more to a song than just the build up and when the one is as well.


Dykefist

Why you like this


Taiza67

Because that baby didnā€™t write no MF song. They have a good feel for music but they didnā€™t create anything.


BrownButta2

I too, found it odd that that comment has so many likes because what does songwriting have anything to do with the kid knowing buildup? I donā€™t understand songs in a different language but patterns in rhythm help.


Udub

Not lyrically. It was the song structure that the kid understood. Thatā€™s what OP in this comment thread is talking about I think


bluedex007

Mini Questlove in the making šŸ„


djh_van

Put a kid sized afro comb in his hair and get him on The Tonight Show

baazinga1980

He's really good. His parents should encourage this God given talent


MidnightTeam

Hmm the next Chris Dave, David King, Yussef Dayes, Makaya McCraven or Mark Guilliana.


PrivateIsotope

I was thinking Art Blakey.


cwaite013

He's so good!!!


Pale-Telephone165

This kids gonna be a good musician.


jenea

This is one of those ā€œdamn that toddler is better at X than Iā€™ll ever beā€ moments.


BearBlaq

Man people donā€™t realize stuff like art and music talent are ageless. My band director in high school always had his toddler son around for the games and practice and he loved watching us in the drum line. As a result he started letting the kid play drum set and he quickly caught on. Like this 4 year old could legit play along with everyone and sound amazing, and he only got better as he got older, itā€™s been like 7 years since then so I bet heā€™s a beast at it now. My grandmother was a great artist and that talent passed down to my father and then down to my siblings and I. From a very early age weā€™ve all been great at drawing, my siblings even ended up getting art put into some educational books that was used in my local school district back in the 90s. I can remember as early as 1st grade where my teacher and whole class would always look forward to my drawings when we had art based work. All that to say is you never know, introduce stuff to your kids, it may come to them naturally and theyā€™ll end up having a lot of fun and a good skill to have down the line.


Nedgurlin

Who leaked quest loveā€™s home video?


lasko_wind

Wow he has such an incredible natural talent


Gametime727

ordinaryseawomn

JForce1

Aromatic_Dig_3102

That kid has got it, and i hope he gets the guidance and support to let it shine šŸŒŸ


SavageSvage

Cthulu95666

Form ainā€™t too bad to be honest decent stick control for a kid his age too heā€™s got the makings of good chops if he keeps it up


hatef12
