I am in loveeeeeeee......my favorite player has alwaysssss been my uncle Roger Troutman..... Rest his soul.....this angel popped up on my timeline and omggggggg.....I've watched his video playing with FB and Maze about 25 times back to back....no lie and I melted in my seat. My ex-husband is a bass player .....father was a percussionist.....family full of singers and instrumentalists so I knowwwwwww music.......JUBUUUUUUU is the truth.....his feel is OFF THE CHAIN.....his delivery is POWERFUL and seamless.....omggggggg I'm on loveeeeeeeee can't wait to see him in person.....I'm gonna tell him how great he ISSSSSSSS......

[@drtalkboxsa9412]

Your uncle is the reason I bought and practiced the talkbox

[@aileenjackson4041]

He is Phenomenal. Definitely a God given gift.

[@roslandyeates9482]

Saw JUBU, with Frankie Beverly&Maze, a month ago, at the Horseshoe Casino in Indiana. He is baaaad!!! Him,and his stage presence! Love him even more, after this interview! So humble, and talented!

[@adamchafetz2986]

I just found out about him a week ago, he's my new favorite guitar player!!!

[@roderickgardner3483]

I'm very impressed with this gentleman! I started a music career in Birmingham, Alabama, but gave it up to become an engineer in the U S Navy. My mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother all were musicians (piano). I am overwhelmed with this story. This guy's gift made room for him right away. Smooth as silk and knows the stings!!!

[@njcranes]

Jubu is the realist deal out there! A gift to us from God. Bless.you man!

[@keithypeterson3191]

JuBu Definitely one of the GREATS! 💪🏾💪🏾👊🏾👊🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@jflo1532]

I have nothing but respect for jubu... Shredder.... An unsung hero..... Dude is legendary...

[@pablominoli4194]

one of the best interviews in your channel Josh.... Jubu Smith ..what a great & humble dude .

[@crystalharris-thomas1939]

Jubu is legend!

[@rcc3music]

Thanks Josh for this interview. Glad to see JUBU getting some much deserved shine. I hope you Interview some of the other top African American guitarists such as Sharkey, J-MO, Eric walls, to name a few. GREAT JOB. ENJOYING THE CHANNEL AND YOUR PLAYING.

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Thanks. There is an Erick Walls interview!

[@user-ic6ov6cm6b]

This guy is the real deal on the lead guitar! Man got skillz and is truely #BLESSED

[@lovelessjams2720]

Josh said in this interview that in the days before KZbin, before being able to rewind back, that what you came up with back then trying to learn licks was always an approximation. I took that to mean that he values the little differences where he didn't get licks 100% correct, because those little differences eventually lead to his original sound. A lot of us guitarist loathe those little mistakes, maybe we should work to embrace them.

[@OmariBanksMusic]

Love JuBu!!!!!!🎸🎶🎶🎶🎸

[@Jay-lr3me]

I think that's a good way to be sometimes, it makes licks a little more your own

[@ceelothatmane9421]

I don’t even learn people’s licks. I just play how I feel

[@w.smalls2117]

Yes!!!!! And all the gospel guitarists in the world are saying Thank You Lord and Thank You Josh Smith

[@iansnyder274]

Thank you Josh for introducing me to Jubu. He is a profound high soul...what a beautiful human being....and killer guitarist!

[@catboyzee]

First thing I get from Jubu’s testimony: Commitment to a singular objective. Much respect to the vision.

[@anniey6354]

Jubu hand down one of my all time favorite bass players. I first heard 3 years back and was absolutely struck "My God this is bad as hell". This year my mother and I went to FB concert in LA, He did tha dam Thang. Lord Jesus bless this man with a wonderful gift. All thanks to his dad who inspired him. Jubu much praise sir 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. Can't wait for the group tour in LA I'm definitely there hands down.

[@paguitar-zu3ok]

Jubu along with Holdsworth are my favorite guitarists of all time.. First heard of Jubu back in 1995 on a Nor Cal Mass Choir video tape. Josh, thank you for this. I always said that Guitar magazines should have had a cover story of Jubu years ago.

[@piscesdiva50]

I can't get enough of brotha Jubu!! Since that Golden time of day guitar solo.. When I'm feeling down, that is my go too video. Lifts my spirits up high. ❤ Thanks for the interview Josh..❤

[@autumnmurff6859]

I was just going through KZbin & I stopped this man was doing a guitar solo with Frankie Beverly & Maze & I was mesmerized by his playing. I had never heard of Jubu Smith. He is phenomenal on the guitar I'm hooked. 😮😂😊❤

[@Strumbum01]

What a nice, humble dude he is. Great interview!

[@veshaw.]

Toni Toni Toni changed the game dare I say it they were some of the earliest pioneers of the music that people would later call it Neo soul

[@jaywonderful1477]

This interview changed my life

[@reylabiano]

Wow my Hero! Gospel Represent! The legend Jubu Smith

[@mattjazz3]

So glad to see this one. Jubu is seriously one of the 🐐’s!

[@AkiraIkuma]

These two(Jubu & Josh) are great innovators.　They taught me the infinity of playing music on guitar.

[@MAP448]

When Josh Smith interviews other musicians, you will learn so much about the person he's interviewing. It's not the case with a lot of other people, who are doing similar things.

[@Kasper911band]

Jubu is the truth! Thx for the interview! 👍🏽

[@MuammarHamed]

Holy shit man that is probably one of the best interviews with two of the coolest guys playing guitar! I absolutely love jubu and Josh Smith!

[@marcusvetrano6455]

This interview was unbelievably inspiring, several times I laughed out loud and held back tears. This was amazing. Thank you so much Josh, honestly changing a young Australian man's life here.

[@rcc3music]

I read your comment before I got through much of the interview but now I know what you're talking about especially thespecially the 'clan is all right".. Lol Good to see one of the many good African African American guitarists getting some shine I'm shine..

[@sharoncorrell5055]

Great conversation! I’ve been intrigued by JUBU …. I just caught up with his maze performance in 2019 ….. then heard him on Dewey Smiths singing in the church !!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@chrisrussoroos6091]

So amazing - thank you both. Jubu is a legend and a very real person.

[@hemtamang3641]

Stumbled upon him a day ago he is just phenomenal guitar player

[@novelistkc]

Loved this interview. So good. Thanks for sharing. This humble giant!🎸👑

[@jerrymcleod8586]

[@rcc3music]

[@ChrisPuckett]

Santana said the same thing about changing the world with the guitar

[@JazzStrat781]

Awesome interview with a killer guitar player, thanks Josh!

[@paulhicks3595]

Thanks guys. Inspiring, informative, motivating and joyful. Two wonderful people!

[@inhisservicegodis3287]

THERES, JIMMIE HENDRIX, PRINCE AND JUBU, BY PAR NONE!! WHEN YOUR EARS STAND INSTANT ATTENTION TO THE GUITAR AND WHAT IT CONVEYS, THUS PRESENTED THE BEST!! 🏆 👑

[@mr5811]

Awesome storyteller. Great interview.

[@ezekielgskeen8607]

love this guy! and salute to you, Josh! Awesome video and interview, salute from UK

[@ChristophHenrici]

These interviews are so great , insight, personal interaction, they have it all….. and now Jubu! Actually i became aware of him, because of you. This interview is special: two of the greatest and still incredibly humble guitarists / musicians talking with each other sharing such good vibes, laughs, history, stories with such respect for each other and other great musicians. Humbling….you guy had me smiling, laughing, nodding, engaged … realizing that yes music is lots of work , but that real talent can’t be learnt and yes it’s a vocation and not and an easy one …..and yessss please do the Ju Blues Album, that would be great. I think many , many would ge supportive

[@reshondaharris9969]

ILovevthe way you connect to the audience and stroke your guitar ❤

[@TheBbtlegit]

Jubu is the man.

[@keslutes]

Jubu is a 🐐‼️ LEGEND for sure! Enjoyed the interview!!!

[@JimmyDel]

Only discovered Jubu from hearing you mention him. Monster player and seems like such a cool guy too

[@chrisscott7092]

Thanks Josh! Awesome interview. So many guitar players mention Jubu, so it's great to hear his story. It's even better to hear that he has no plans to slow down. I hope you guys can make that blues album happen.

[@AnthonyElsetinow]

Excellent interview! This is what I enjoy. Knowing what’s behind the great musicians is inspiring.

[@rpj-sax4lyfe]

This was amazing.. both of you are amazing people and artists. Blessings on Blessings to the both of you.

[@pitchisperfect]

Hands down, Jubu is my favorite guitar player. I listen to him almost every day. Great interview! 🎸

[@dontajones2220]

Yep!

[@dontajones2220]

Broke my heart when he said somebody took the Stratocaster

[@pitchisperfect]

@@dontajones2220 Tell me about it bruh! That Strat alone is the reason why I use the whammy bar.

[@dontajones2220]

The reason why I even play a strat. I was Les Pauling.

[@pitchisperfect]

@@dontajones2220 Glad you're on the winning side lol

[@marcroy7494]

Josh, this was one of the best. So much respect for you and Jubu, and really everyone you bring on. I thank you.

[@artofunk]

Golden Brother both inside & out✌🏽🙏🏽👍🏽

[@nosub77]

This is THE coolest interview. When I can smile and feel inspired I know I am in the right place. Thank you for bring this and so many great interviews you give to all of us.

[@syiarmykel4695]

My all-time favorite guitar player

[@CheddarKungPao]

What a great way to kick off Season 2. Awesome interview. Hoping I can catch Jubu on tour some time.

[@dejavodoo]

Thank you Josh. Jubu is one of my favourites -- Cheers all the way from Lisbon Portugal

[@93greenstrat]

This was an awesome interview. As a working stiff, I really find inspiration and encouragement in the passion that you cats have for the guitar and music in general. I think this is something overlooked in a gear obsessed world......but hey we're guitar players and gear is way cool!

[@jodywhitedrums]

I remember the handful of nights I got to play with Jubu at the Nik's in Marietta, GA (who was there to see his boy Landon Jordan). He'd come in at the 11th hour, and we all stood/sat up a little straighter knowing who we were going to play with. It was always great. Personally I think he hated me as a drummer, and just felt like I was only tolerated. Doesn't mean that I don't still hail him as a harmonic genius, he's absolutely the best musician I've ever played with...but I'll see him again.

[@davidtrotman1812]

Love jubu New Brunswick’s own. I saw the same excitement when he was 12 . Him and Eric are gifted

[@mirecmusic]

Got a chance to know Jubu in Inglewood,California and I must say he has a style of his own.I never let him play my Guitar (because I am left handed) but I surrendered my amp every time Lol. Good brother

[@PunyapatFungtammasarn]

What a great interview. Great questions. I learnt a ton from this , I really appreciate your work man 🙏

[@claytonjohn6473]

Man, he hits two notes and i can tell hes well versed. I think what the bible says is true. If its not from love, it sounds like a clanging cymbal. I think his playing well honors God!

[@iloveibanez92]

I’m becoming a ruler just to hear this man talk some more. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some Josh Smith, but hearing Jubu speak is so rare and powerful.

[@hp77]

Love your story I’m just starting to learn to play bass 🎶🎸 U R AWESOME 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@phyllislightfoot2102]

I LOVE ME SOME JUBU SMITH ❤ ❤

[@aparis82]

Great interview!! Thank You 🙏🏾

[@Stereostupid]

Thanks again Josh for introducing me to another player I didn't know about! Love these interviews so interesting! You have a great set of questions,now I know what you're going to ask next it's a good formula!

[@waltergunn6923]

He is blessed by God and I listened to jubu play a lot

[@smitty4791]

Great stories about his dad.

[@greenmirror5555]

Jubu Smith is GREAT TOO! He needs to take the blynd and make a three week tour date schedule map like his father did set up his own gigs 60/40 and if its just a 12 dollar show bond the whole thing together over a meal! Keeping a strong band together is quite a task!

[@erajad]

If you're hitting the road, Jubu - I'll be waiting and watchng. (Goes for Josh, too!) P.s. Include Scotland!

[@carterpaul2688]

Great guitarist man. For real!

[@darariley9480]

As a fellow Cap and guitarist I’m amazed that our starting Is so similar. I’m from Philly and had some experience. But you great bro. When I saw and you at my Uncles house "Frankie Beverly’s Brother" I was blown away . Keep strumming Jubu and please get on your album. God bless

[@teresanickson3754]

I love you Jubu keep up the good work ❤️

[@RaiderClarke312]

Late Great Jef Lee Johnson is one of the most Wicked Guitarist I've ever Heard. Been a Big Fan of his for Years...

[@robertosicam6240]

Love this interview. Would Love to see a movie of JUBU and his dad growing up doing gigs with gospel culture

[@carolynjarrell2891]

TA DA JUBU!!! FOR THE LOVE OF THE GUITAR AND YOUR LOVE OF CHRIST. GREAT INTERVIEW!!! KEEP USING YOUR GIFT. TEACH OTHERS HOW TO PLAY🎸🎸🎸🎼🎶🎵

[@chanderlewis3761]

There's nobody like Jubu Smith, I really love him and I thank him for being apart of Frankie Bev.

[@lemmystop]

This is amazing!

[@verzatileband]

Amazing interview! Jubu is definitely that guy. Been a fan since back in the “Spanky” Alford days on guitar. Love em Random question though…..are you the same Josh Smith that went to Dillard High School? By the way…..this is Rico Harmon. I played drums back then. I think our band teacher was Mr. Kunesh

[@JJDPROMEDIAPRODUCTION]

Lobe Jubu! And Josh.. 🎸🎸🎼🎼💯💯

[@syiarmykel4695]

He's the reason why become a guitar player

[@thereallbking]

[@dantedt3931]

1:20:00 "...Clan's ok" Jubu is a legend! Hahaha!

[@gvrpresentsbearwilliams]

Two of THE BADDEST KATZ on the Planet!!!!

[@mofwof]

Another incredible interview Josh! Where can I pre-order Jubu Blues? I'll be waiting... :)

[@sexyred1937]

This dude is a beast

[@Natefunk49]

Wanted to hear him play, saw him with Tony Toni Tone back in the day live on vh1 smoking also in a clip with Elijah speaking in an accent, that I thought was real!

[@tun3tym3]

Bad dude. I think I just saw him playing with Tevin Campbell but the stage was so damn dark. I could be wrong but sounded like him.

[@mikewallace1270]

Let's not kid ourselves. Jubu wipes the floor with Josh and all of the guitar players on the planet.

[@Jay-lr3me]

It's not a competition these players love and respect eachother, stop it
