The band's amazing, the sister on drums is like a Rose in a garden of hibiscus. This style of music remains one of my most loved style of music. The runs, riffs, walk downs and ups. I love shout music. Wonderful session!!!

[@jsoul1978]

I just realized that's Pocket Queen on the drums!! 🙌🏾

[@guitarplayernoteworthy2857]

I wasn’t sure if that was her or not…didn’t want to give out bad information, 😆

[@WilbertGross]

@@guitarplayernoteworthy2857 same here. I was looking but wasn't sure lol

[@adewumiadeloye2293]

She is the one, and only 😂

[@jerryhahn784]

There are a few girls using the name "Pocket Queen"

[@DETERMINOLOGY]

That's her i think. She has a certain look to her.

[@ayomiku22]

The bass player is the star of the show driving the grove.

[@desirstevenson1567]

Yeaa

[@spibass3760]

💯

[@rizzel7]

Completely!!!!

[@nicklong1094]

As a old school musician I'm loving the tech of the ear piece in today's band. The band can go anywhere the lead takes them without hesitation.

[@jeromedavis8575]

Today's contemporary Christian music and praise and worship can't hold a candle to this groovy gospel music and would never touch it. EVER! Not even with a 10 foot pole! This is the stuff I grew up with.

[@StefanMiller]

That bass player is cooking! The keys and organ are on point. The guitar player is pickin. Also, they don't call her "the pocket queen" for no reason. All around great.

[@jeromedavis8575]

I wish today's praise and worship and contemporary Christian music got this groovy like their gospel counterparts do.

[@mariussmall-smith4401]

Nikko and the Pocket Queen is a nuclear reaction

[@Cracka-Jack]

That guitar player can’t be human had to rewind the end of the first time cuz that was unreal

[@jgyrwa]

This band was so in sync. The drummer stayed in the pocket, played the shot, and kept the drive moving forward. Consistent flow…

[@johnhendricks8140]

I know that guitarist from i.g great musicians right here. What I love about this with all these musicians playing it doesnt sound cluttered everyones in their sonic space.

[@EbonyKeyzWorshipMusic]

Girl! You better play them drums! 🔥🔥🔥

[@DevinMcKellar]

ain't the pocket queen?

[@jeremyharris6491]

Yeah that’s her!🔥

[@WilbertGross]

@@DevinMcKellar I was thinking the same thing!

[@gospelclassictv5167]

Yes girl drummer rockin'

[@purpleprince2598]

OKAY!

[@hectorrios4107]

All the musicians must have been practicing together for LOOOONG time because everyone understand what the MD asks for at the moment!!!! WOW Incredible.

[@elioncampbell5745]

The girl on the drums really is keeping up I'm proud of her

[@jay2xtremefy]

She's the "pocketqueen" if not mistaken.

[@daquetreed5522]

Why wouldn’t she be

[@Romans12-1]

The Pocket Queen www.youtube.com/@ThePocketQueen

[@massiveqdawg]

She is an excellent drummer. Calls herself the “Pocket Queen”. Not flashy with a lot of chops. I’m sure she can cook … but she plays BEAUTIFULLY and keeps it right in the Pocket! She’s really a pro!

[@purpleprince2598]

OKAY!

[@Avembe]

Guyz, i can barely stay on my chair lord knows i'm enjoying this but i must admit the MD is JUST WOOOOOOOOOOOW....So focused and at the same time really on the flow of the song , the spirit of worship...that guy is just a blessing.....Sir LELASI you're a genius!!!

[@rockkstah2550]

Church musicians are the most bless! why? cause they serve GOD JESUS... For as long as they serve GOD JESUS with their talent....

[@dfwdenradiostation4860]

We've added this song to our Gospel Station current rotation for the world to hear !!!!

[@joeg5507]

Take me to church, groove with Jesus!!!

[@moiggc]

Now, how does an Italian muso end up with a gospel church band? Must be an interesting story behind that. Fantastic musos in that band! Very interesting to see you direct live. More pls!

[@TheJazzPianist]

Yeah it's a fun story, and its been an amazing experience so far!

[@RoryG23]

@@TheJazzPianist I’m grade A slow🥴 I didn’t realize this is thee same nikko from nikkollective vol.1&2🤦🏾 bruhhhh I’m a fan of ur work pure genius man!

[@keysey20]

The band chemistry is so good

[@justincamlic4682]

Pocket Queen

[@ronrobbins2737]

Talent/Skill/Arrangement/Practice/.. . . .all come together thanks to your SOULFUL SPIRIT. FANTASTIC !!

[@no-ee]

I am less than an average musician in church, I rely heavily in the chord charts and do decently with it. But, I feel that every church musician should aspire to handle his church business the way Nikko does. Heck, I even think that just by watching him over and over I’ll turn into a better musician myself. Awesome vibe Nikko and the rest of the band! Praise God!

[@goodrothedrummer]

Bro, got 2 Drummer’s in the band with the one on bass one on drums there’s dope

[@vralex02]

Yall are LOCKED!!!

[@davidmead6337]

Where did these folks come from. Never heard of them before. They HOT.

[@faithministrynotes-mas]

Oh yeah, Taylor has been around for quite a while. A true professional, truly "locked" in the groove pocket. Surprised to see her in this vid, but refreshing to see this worship go down clean, colorful and energy packed 👍

[@hectorrios4107]

This is the BEST direction (MD) I have seen in my life. Point. So "entertained" and variant. So good. Excellence !!!!!!

[@treeoakfilms5723]

"building blocks to gospel chops" on the bass there! ahah respect!

[@al55848]

I wish I could tag along on bass for just one practice. I would learn so much about playing. The groove, the cohesion, the direction, and the knowledge in that room. Everyone is in the pocket. It is beautiful.

[@NSC057]

The verbal instructions are pointing to the chords for the base to hit. It is his gifting and probably the holy spirit's directions for all the different walks to and from those chords.

[@justinwhite600]

I LOVE to see you killing just as hard in EVERY genre. And I especially love to see you use your gifts for the Lord

[@quentinjones6989]

Churchy, but cleeeean as a whilstle..!

[@theallenboy]

tight like a record. Pocket Queen is very musical drummer. Tasty stuff

[@hectorrios4107]

Those singers are as impressive as the musicians. They also understands and follow all the instructions of the MD and change accordingly (their parts are also different, like the musicians'). Good job everyone!!!

[@joeldouet2127]

everybody is killing but sheeesh that organ 💯💯

[@rickyshinobi2303]

The pastor showed up and showed out. Okay, pastor!

[@RoryG23]

Ayyyoooo correct me if I’m wrong don’t that bass player plays drums too?!🤦🏾🙌🏾

[@TheJazzPianist]

yes Jerohn Garnett is a world-renowned drummer!! Plays drums for Chaka Khan among many other things!

[@runnerup109]

Pastor came out the back office just to bless the saints 😂

[@thomastaylor1217]

Pastor went HAM!!!!!!

[@davidsmith7962]

The Pocket Queen is 🔥

[@harty6783]

Nikko this is just insane. World class.

[@TheJazzPianist]

Thank you Alex! Glad you enjoyed it

[@harty6783]

Still come back to this 2 years later. That call for E. Loooooorrrrrdd Jesus 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️😅😅😅

[@JulianFernandez]

Jerohn kills on drums too!

[@TheJazzPianist]

Yup, fun fact. He's ACTUALLY KNOWN first as a drummer, but his bass playing is just ridiculous! An incredible musician!

What a legend Vanessa Rubin and singing with a trio jazz band. Vanessa Rubio is believe that I wrote to you around earlier in 2000 and I shared with you how much I love ur music 🎶 the style, range and the lyrics all goes hand in hand. I'm now 53. And I've always had an appreciation for different genres of music jazz the different styles of jazz. And I have to say u reach the middle age audience I was born in the 1970 era but I grew up listening to, Sarah Vaughn, Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald, Della Reese, Pearl Bailey and the list goes on. I hope to get the chance to sing and play with you one day soon because I love doing what I do. Keep on doing what you do touching the hearts of others as God's vessel and truly appreciate u Ms. Vanessa Rubin. Much love and respect always God bless and keep you always. 💕💕💕🌹🌹

[@nigelonamade8441]

Yeah that Sistah held it together real good, and the whole band was fire too. What blessing, and to me that is what an MD mic is for, to chane stuff on the fly, especially when Pastor is so moved and wants to do the song again, his own style.
