[@judahben149]

I've heard you play a couple rhythms and they're Wonderful. But converting the solfas to beats is not as easy. I mean the extra hits with the beater and your second hand to make it rhythmic. Pls if you can make videos on that, it'll be appreciated. Thanks

[@topeolamide7031]

Super proud of u, bro

[@TalkingdrumSpeaks]

thanks bro...

[@sosthenelokonon4256]

I want to ask one question ' the question is that " how can I arrange the strings to have a good sound "

[@TalkingdrumSpeaks]

This is all part of the maintenance that occurs on a talkingdrum. You can do that when replacing the head over or just stretch them to make the sound high then with the adjuster, you can tune to the last note. Then your sound is better

[@sosthenelokonon4256]

Ok thanks for the response Now while responsing you said " the last note " which note you are talking about ??

[@okeyxyz]

This is a beautifully demonstration video. I almost very much enjoyed it. I said "almost" because I have one criticism and it's a HUGELY SIGNIFICANT criticism and it goes thus: You kept attributing this particular body of knowledge and performance to "Africa" instead of "Yoruba" which rightly deserves the credit. I remember only 2 or 3 times in the body of the video that you grudgingly credited the Yoruba group with the proverbs and drumming, where you said "mostly Yoruba...", as if other ethnic nations have these same particular proverbs. It's a huge failing on your part given the beauty of your video. But you eventually did the correct narration in the last 1 minute, being specific about the Yoruba nation and not robbing them to give to Africa. Even this is assuming that viewers will watch to the end. I almost quit bcos I was many troubled by your constant "Africa, Africa, Africa..." assertions. I am Igbo, but even I can see how this video has failed to give proper credit to the Yoruba nation. Giving due detailed credits throughout this video would have made it more informative, more interesting, worthy of further investigation & documentary. I feel a need to make this criticism because We(Africans) tend to accuse "the West" of reducing us to a single, unsophisticated entity called "Africa", yet when we have the chance for a proper rendition of the narrative, we fall back to the same base, minimalist narrative of "Africa" that we accuse others(non-Africans) of doing. Please learn to "sell" yourselves in a more informative themes. The Yoruba nation alone is so vast in her spread and wealth of knowledge, lores, heritage, etc. Why you would rob her of this credit and make her "Africa" is beyond me. And she(Yoruba) is just one of many ethnic nations that comprise Africa. That we Africans continue to efface ourselves by failing to highlight our many diversities is just sad. This is still a beautiful video tho. Thanks for sharing

[@TalkingdrumSpeaks]

okeyxyz thanks sir...i really accept this criticism..though the mistake remains unintentional.I will surely work on it.
