There's tons of drummers that can fill a solo but can't play a song to save their lives

[@anthonypachecodrums]

Yupp! Until you get a gig with Herbie Hancock or someone that requires fillin up! Lol

[@supahsekzy]

This is like really serious pocket.... his feel for the drums is very mature. Sounds like someone twice his age.

[@williamfreeman1709]

talent doesn't come with age only practice

[@larryhajdasz220]

Talent is God given, skill comes from practice.

[@scottwilliams8496]

Helps to have a mean bass player beside you!

[@JK-vc7ie]

You know that’s right

[@fuzzylogiceire]

I think any group would kill to have this kid in their band, even at his young age. He's got it. And I'm so impressed with his discipline as a musician to hold down that groove non stop.

[@mystrodds]

Still blown away by this kid!!! Wow!

[@RobWill5864]

The fact that he's playing like that while sitting too high is amazing in and of itself!

[@redmondsmusic]

This is from a career worship leader, professional musician and music teacher here in Chicago. Young man, you got it goin' on!!!!! You definitely got a BRIGHT future with your exceptional talent. So stay in that pocket, little bro! You only get better and bigger from here and all to God's glory. (I also started out on drums at age 10 or 11 as well......LOL)

[@Szymon20000]

This young drummer’s groove is pure madness! Even when I listen to the top adult percussionists, I don’t get this kind of feeling. Hats off to the incredible talent !

[@ljtheartist]

Thats true! God has given him a gift despite what people have to say. Bless you young man

[@JCPVideos2011]

I'm impressed that so many church choirs are putting their fate in child drummers! This guy was jamming!

[@Soulful_Chaos]

I LOVE to see the BABIES be AMAZING at their gifts especially when they're using them for the Lord! WOW!

[@dedrickp]

Lil man groovin really hard and he's feeling what he's doing......GREAT JOB!!!

[@hamb3]

That's my lil cuzn! OMG! I'm so loving this pocket! Yeeesssss!

[@ElderStevenFurrJr.]

Pocket is always the cleanest way to go....makes you money!

[@Gruuvin1]

My man! I'll tell you what pocket is: Pocket is when the drummer plays LESS, but so solidly locked on the downbeats it's MORE. (Playing LESS is giving MORE) He fills just a few of the upbeat spaces and leaves the remaining space open as much as possible for other rhythm section instruments to fill (like bass, guitar, keys), so that that all the instruments are working together to form one unified groove. POCKET is what a great drummer provides to the rhythm section to lay down the groove in a very effortless way. Listen to the BASS player in this video; the bass player can do almost ANYTHING he wants and it makes the groove sound really funky--know why? Cuz that drummer is playing POCKET so HARD that no matter what any other instrument does, it's gonna sound funky!! It's locked in so hard and funky that it makes everyone else's job easier.... and nobody can sit still.... Dancin! ......And just to elaborate a little more, THE WHOLE RHYTHM SECTION IS PLAYING POCKET!! So, the drummer could lay right out, and just make a few almost random hits, and it would still sound funky, cuz everybody is playing pocket!

[@JK-vc7ie]

This is the best comment I’ve read on KZbin. Thank you.

[@climbjay]

Serious talent at such a young age. Watch out for this kid...guarantee in the next 10 years he's gonna be a big player in the game. Credit to his tutors, mentors and parents.

[@TheMavriikk]

Feelin the groove here..Excellent high hat work!1 Whooa!!!

[@leoehgartner]

Unbelievable! Fantastic pocket! What a swing on the hats! Take a bout Sir! Future Gospel king of drums!

[@thebeatsmith6594]

I love it......Finally a gospel drummer that plays chops when there needed....and thick pocket that inspires the other musician the BRING IT......yeah....I like this .....KUDOS to whomever taught him this...

[@maxjohnson8898]

Oh my Gadd thats one hell of a pocket.

[@siimplyhm]

Lil Dude has serious pocket. pocket get you gigs not licks this dude has a bright future ahead of him

[@Vessel846]

YESSSSSSS! Nothing more encouraging than a young buck with a pocket. He has been taugh/wathced well. Those to dislikes are from HATERS!

[@EverD80]

My God this Kid got it. He reminds me of myself wen i was 11 only his pocket is way tighter. Dude keep it up.

[@mackeyattackfitness4830]

He's going to be a pocket master when he get older

[@ericpfaff68]

pocket, groove, chops, signature, rythm, spot on timing, built in metronome I'd say. very impressive!!!!

[@kingskid1985]

Keep in the pocket, son! You got a bright future!

[@steinerair71]

Awesome groove. I like the triplet fills.

[@CooperDrums]

This is what every drummer should aspire to sound like.

[@massiveqdawg]

Pocket keeps them heads bobbin! Thats how u do it little man. Nice work!

[@Antwanette0386]

This young man is truly talented by God. Keep using your God given talent for the Lord and always keep Him first; He will supply your every need - 1 Timothy 4: 12-16 and St. Matthew 6:33. I pray you, your family and friends all the best. God's love and blessings!!!

[@GAGmetal]

Just goes to show that these younger drummers can still teach us older drummers some important things! I can learn a thing or two from him!

[@giantkiller56]

The title didn't lie. This kid's pocket is for real. Nicely done, young brotha!

[@koloppants2060]

Cool stuff dude we drummers are always enjoying things like this

[@redcr33perproductions]

This must be one of the greatest 11 year old drummers I've ever seen

[@ChaostheClown]

This kid absolutely rules. And I'm not just saying that cuz he's a kid who plays drums, I'm saying that cuz he's a kid who plays drums and is very, very...VERY good at it. Not many other drummers his age at this level yet. Awesome stuff.

[@mikeduane8864]

This drummer has a bright future playing drums. Straight in the pocket playing.

[@isaaclaing5912]

I can't stop nodding my head. Kid is a groove machine

[@danstephensen9902]

God Bless the Young Man. Representing like a Grown Man .... angelic

[@spidyboy03]

he's great for his age! i wish i culd play like that back wen i was his age

[@WrestleManiaMan1000]

I was in his same position, and still am and from what I hear, he has a rich pocket and definitely knows his way around the drums. I'll almost even say he has better pocket than I do, mainly b/c I want to do what everyone else can do. But what I've been learning is that Pocket is key to being a successful drummer. This video is a perfect example. An eleven year old playing pocket at a nat'l church convention with probably 2000+ people.

[@nicolewest7836]

Oh lawwd hes is awsome n gifted!!

[@user-ib1hb2gc9l]

dang he got some pockets

[@Amazinijeoma]

Boy you are great indeed. Oh this is lovely! This video has been a great inspiration for my little PJ and DD so much. Keep it up. This is just the best way to bring them up. I know we will remember this video for many more years to come. I cant stop watching and sharing. Great great great! I have to acknowledge you for what they are now playing.

[@junnielovesgod]

[@BadTanLines]

Kudos to the band for being able to stay in the pocket... some guys can't stay in the groove no matter how good the drummer is. But damn this kids got it!

[@rhythmicboy]

I remember the days that I was so short that I would lean back onto the drum thrones at visiting churchs and play. He's got great pocket while almost standing up right. 👍

[@ChampionTalk]

I love this song he is a beast

[@yaboyreece22]

Very, very, very nice job. Keep it up!

[@MarkkuDrummer]

Beautiful drum playing!

[@zeljr]

Young man..... You had a great teacher!! Keep that pocket tight like and you will NEVER NEVER NEVER be out of a job!!!!!!!!

[@eaglelinder]

Playing in the "Pocket" is setting a deep groove basically.

[@NBDrummerBoy]

I applaud you sir!!! Finally, a young that drummer that plays A SONG! and has a great pocket @ that!!! Keep pressing forward, young man! You are going farther than you could ever see now! keep God 1st and continue to perfect your craft. You are on your way!

[@KennyDavinci]

everybody clap your hands \this is the way we praise him

[@anraing]

sounding good. i love that he stays in the pocket. keep it up.

[@TheMaestrogenius]

OMG the pocket was so lovely...made my day seeing this in the youth....everybody else these days seems not to show discipline...BUT THIS is what true playing is about....

[@lamontanderson2594]

Imagine what he sounds like today !! Mind blowwnnnnnn

[@Amberondrums]

I enjoyed this He did a great job!!!!

[@thebassmath]

Solid!! Keep at it little man.

[@patmo9557]

Wow! Would love to hear him now! This has blessed me this morning. Had to watch it twice! LOL

[@crisuriel1995]

Amazing God bless him !!!

[@dwaynel.maxwell1113]

This kid knows what a pocket is. He on his way to greatest! The rest of the band sounds good as will. God Bless you All!

[@bonmagbago]

he's like a grown man playing the drums... amazing

[@Mari000]

Well done!

[@walt9427]

I will take a pocket player any day over a out of pocket player. Great job young man keep playing for God and always thank him for the gift he has blessed you with. God has some great things in store for you just keep him first in your life.

[@zionhill5102]

Pocket!! All I need for a percussionist!

[@lilmemphiz3295]

Young boy cold man. Better than some grown dudes out there. For the crazy out of pocket drummers all the time, need to watch this young man play. You can learn somethings frfr. But lil man is amazing.

[@Graced4This]

You better play baby! Children are so pure! Love it!

[@yaboycoopa242]

aside from the drum the bass is also killing this good job guys

[@gmdrummerboy]

Its more than timing. Thats part of it. Its overall groove and the ability to execute fills inside the "pocket".

[@Maestro7dadp]

Wow, such discipline. [tearin' up...]

[@sistah97]

You really good kid. God has truely blessed you. Keep it up.

[@henrypennington9815]

drummer killing it good job

[@arlandoarmour5727]

thank u for watching me playing the drums i was killin it

[@massiveqdawg]

Hip Pocket ... He on there!!!! Nice work!

[@EricSheppardMusic]

im impressed by his sense of time and confidence

[@OscarBradleyTWD]

Been a devout catholic for my whole life but in the last few years I have thought for myself and woken up. I believe you have to understand something that you don't want to believe in. This kid just has a natural flare for rhythm and percussion. It's the way his brain/DNA has grown (also practice).

[@hevyhands]

Verry nice pocket he's not over playing i love it.

[@tommybasham-oo7qf]

So great!!! He has a awesome future ahead of him!

[@edwardagraysonjr7321]

That's exactly what it is little brother! For all you drummers out there seeing this, know your job. BE A MUSICIAN FIRST!

[@carsondrum]

Damn! Like to see where he is now, I would rate this as more important than having chops any day. This is great!

[@blacksheeplimbo8196]

Holy mother of groove! :D

[@jermainelong1843]

Very good. I'm ssoooooo tired of so called drummers who just wanna chop chop fill all over the place with no regard for what the music actually needs. This kid is on the right track! BTW whoever gave a thumb down, what's your problem?? Jealousy perhaps?

[@331paradiddle]

Its all about the groove. You got it my man. I hear all these young guys with monster chops but dont understand that in the music business its about making people dance if you want to work. I love chops too but you gotta lay it down. This kid is tight.

[@willbass82]

@picure Thanks a lot man! Everytime we play together, its an awesome experience! Its incredible how much pocket Lil Ennis(the drummer) has!!!!

[@Blader999]

I'm as proud of him as I'd be with my own son, if I had one. AWESOME DUDE RIGHT THERE!

[@balloutdee_4255]

AND HE FEELS IT 🎚🙏🏽‼️

[@DamonTheeSir]

O M G ....SHATABOBOBOMAHSEEEEE. I FELT THAT. SO EFFORTLESS, SO CLEAN, ....SOUNDS LIKE HE'S DOING A LOT BUT HE'S NOT. THAT'S HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO SOUND. MY GOD. THAT WAS SICKKKKK! HAHAHAHA. I NEED TO GO PRACTICE ASAP.

[@travonclement5442]

God going bless you like he did me 3 years ago man

[@taurusfirth2097]

Nice groove(pocket) kid has talent

[@playtwomuch]

Love It!

[@ondremcelroy3948]

Keep stickin kid...Praise God!!!!

[@AlVelasquezDrums]

GREAT drumming young man. You should be 18 by now. I'm a Fan. Keep on making Music that FEELS good. :-)

[@bradleysowell9974]
