Rappers React To Kids Covering TOOL 46 and 2!!!

[@curtismoss8616]

Yo what's up Trash Talkers. It's surreal to see so many people loving my video through the years. This is Curtis Moss, the drummer from the Tool video. I'm 24 now, and have a band called Backhand Blue based in Nashville, TN featuring Macy Addis and Eli Dykstra from OKeefe Music Foundation. Thanks guys!

[@kasm_nME]

You killed it! You all did. We need a reunion performance. A "Where are they now?" so to speak.

[@IceMan-p8w]

Yo yo yo yo, ook ook eek eek

[@rickbusitzky3353]

If you were the drummer in the video you were amazing, if not YOU ARE A TOOL!!

[@thordeer]

You're amazing! This video has changed my life. I show it to everyone I know because I'm a teacher and I've never been so in awe of youngsters doing their thing.

[@bipbip1029]

The kid on drums... I read somewhere that he was the one who pushed to cover this one. The grin he has right before the solo makes me think they're right 😂

[@kings6143]

true.

[@krzjfx]

Curtis Moss ist his Name.

[@bettyrose959]

They all play their request when they age out of the program. Most of the videos you see, one of the kids has reached their end at the school. I believe it's 19 but not positive. If it was the drummers request, it would be as he was exiting.

[@johannalonn-skogh256]

Please do a whole series with O'Keefe kids! They do Pantera, Slipknot and so much more and they are AMAZING

[@kristaspecht]

That'd be kool

[@johncarpenter3751]

They gotta actually do Pantera 😂 before they cover kids covering Pantera 😉

[@casper4202]

Yes!!!

[@jindas4217]

YES!!!!

[@jasonduvall6565]

Agreed. , And I love ur name

[@bapc3billneeley]

The way I heard it, Kala Rose went to a concert to see some of her favorite bands. There was to be an autograph signing and she was excited to get some of the musicians signatures. She was told the signing table was set up and she went to get in line. The table was for her. In the line was the bands she was there to see...to get HER autograph!

[@kasm_nME]

This is fantastic! And so well deserved👏

[@OverworkedITGuy]

I remember stumbling across this years ago and it still gets me every time. These kids absolutely NAILED it!!

[@bobkitten8150]

Gave me hope for the future of music.

[@katiebee939]

Yes!! Goosebumps every time. They are phenomenal.

[@bobhoward790]

I was gonna suggest some of these a while back :-P The O'Keefe Music Foundation kids have done some EPIC covers, not just of TOOL, but Slipknot, Pantera, Slayer, KORN, S.O.A.D, Rammstein... Absolutely brilliant stuff and these kids are going to go far!

[@sterling8298]

This was the most bad-ass thing I've seen in all of 2022 so far. Those kids are beyond amazing. And that drummer to have those polyrhythms like that. WoW!

[@metalguru85]

That's not an easy bass line and the guy killed it. Amazing! Drummer was the MVP there though 🤟

[@logandoles6859]

Seriously one of the best videos on KZbin. They are so amazing. I watch it every time it comes across my feed. 🤘🏼

[@johnpenner2632]

Your response is pretty much exactly what mine was. Mind boggling proficiency by these kids. One of the best covers that i have ever seen.

[@LojakZeRo]

There is a TON of amazing content on the O'Keefe channel. This stuff is like 10 years old, they're all grown up now. The singer grew up to become quite the vocalist, has her own band etc. The drummer is the real standout imo here. He has his own channel now and that young man is a BEAST. Playing polyrhythms at his age, crazy. Watch it again and focus on him, kids nuts. The bass player also very good.

[@Kelly30stm]

This is probably the best cover of 46 and 2. Great reaction!

[@microgirl3789]

What an unexpected surprise on a Tuesday. These kids are amazing and give me hope for the future of music. Love this video! ❤🤘

[@scottlefaivre6889]

You're right Christy this is a surprise. As soon as I seen kids cover tool I thought I was going to push on the notification and it was going to say premieres tonight at 6:00 and that's what they were doing tonight and then it was a surprise to see that no they're just doing an extra track on Tuesday that's awesome

[@brianyates7255]

HELLO FROM NEW ENGLAND..TAKE IT FROM A DRUMMER, AND WHEN IT COMES TO PLAYING DRUMS, IT TAKES ABOUT 10 SECONDS TO TELL IF A PERSON HAS RYTHME...HOWEVER RYTHME CAN BE TAUGHT BUT FEEL CANT BE TAUGHT..EITHER YOU GOT THE FEEL OR YOU DONT...INSTRUMENTS CAN BE TAUGHT BUT FEEL COMES FROM UR SOUL!!! PEACE FROM THE NORTHEAST..

[@shawnmarek5981]

For sure! Another drummer here, try and teach dynamics to a musician who doesn't understand it ?!?

[@brandondrush]

Kid playing the bass is wearing a Periphery shirt! Badass!

[@markmaloney3140]

What talented kids. Saw this a couple years back. Excellent work. So glad these kids sidestepped pop fluff like Swifty!!! Nice.

[@sleepysleepythomas5461]

Theres a lot thats amazing with this cover and its how me and a lot of people realized the singer (Kala Rose) has got some PIPES. The drummer is amazing and all the extra elements (bongos, piano) just make it different and original. A lot of these kids in this performance and in O'Keefe's Music Foundation (Ill call it OKMF for short) have their own bands now too, including Kala. Theres also another Tool cover they did where Kala was also on vocals (the song Sober, maybe next Tool Tuesday? *wink wink*). Kala is an amazing singer and has improve with time and age. I can see u guys loving their covers of Korn's Freak on a Leash and Black Label Society's "Crazy Horse" as well. I cant say it enough, every kid that has became part of the OKMF has gone to give timeless covers and be able to form amazing bands. I hope to see you two reacting to more covers from OKMF in the near future, same with Kala's band, Saving Escape, who released an EP that was dropped in 2019, I believe, with 8 songs that r all bangers. Fun fact: This cover got local radio airplay in a few towns in Ohio and Kala and another member of this cover lineup were interviewed on a radio station as well around that time too. Ive also heard this cover on the radio once in Wisconsin, which happily surprised me.

[@craigalexander4532]

Crazy Horse is amazing

[@brutisfletcher]

I saw some videos of Saving Escape performing. They covered a Janis Joplin song and omg Kayla is INCREDIBLE covering Janis!

[@sleepysleepythomas5461]

@@brutisfletcher yes she is, I never thought she could surprise me again knowing what she can do until I heard her cover Janis. Just WOW

[@michaelb1761]

Crazy Horse is mind blowing. Macy Addis was about the same age as Kayla, and she did some amazing covers too.

[@michaelb1761]

@@brutisfletcher Having heard her performance of Crazy Horse dozens of times, I can imagine.

So glad you guys went back and watched these kids play this. Amazing!

I've been waiting for you guys to do this one. AWESOME!

I'm glad you reacted to this. I've seen this year's ago and so glad you appreciated it, as no doubt you would!

[@anget4431]

That girls singing is giving me Lacey Sturm vibes! Love it!

[@williamscott2097]

You guys reacted to Dream Theatre’s Pull me under. These kids do a great version of that song as well with the same girl on vocals. It is worth checking out as well.

[@thtadthtshldntbe]

pretty much everything Kala sings on the internet, whether its with OMF or her band Saving Escape is worth checking out.

[@phil724]

Absolutely 💯 must do Pull me under by these Artists. They are awesome and the O'Keefe foundation is wonderful

[@J0kerzach2008]

This song sent me down the Tool spiral

[@craigalexander4532]

Same! I watch this video more than any other.

[@xxwookey]

Yep. Another one here. I never looked up Tool before seeing this vid. More fool me.

Great rabbit hole to go down.

[@Freedum_Fries]

You should see the video of Danny playing drums for an all girl band. he is smiling the whole time. such a cool dude. this is the exact title of video The Pot - Danny Carey (TOOL) and Kt Ruth Harms

[@krisfyock5310]

Thank you for doing this. Support the foundation by diving into some of the other incredible songs kids are covering under the foundation. TOOL songs they have covered are good. Pull Me Under , the Dream Theater song is excellent , plus Crazy Horse and Cry Little Sister are done , then you get into Slipknot songs. Enjoy brothers.... PS I'm certain interviews the foundation has commented their thanks to TOOL for their support

[@TheJaxxT]

The same school/foundation has done sober too. I think it’s the same vocalist but she’s a few years older. But I may be mistaken. Another group from the same foundation has also done Cry Little Sister from the movie The Lost Boys. The vocalist they chose has the perfect voice for this song

[@godscoldhands77]

you're right, Kala has done Sober too... i think she was 14 years old at the time, on 46&2 she was 11.

[@TheJaxxT]

@@godscoldhands77 I thought it was the same girl, but I could’ve been wrong too. Such talented kids. The foundation seems to be a very successful place with how the kids turn out

[@godscoldhands77]

@@TheJaxxT you're not wrong...it's the same girl, Kala Rose. today she sings in a blues/rock band called Saving Escape. they self-released an album in 2019. Kala also came back to the foundation to do one of the five different 'The Pot' versions, she sings in the 2nd version. the female bassist in the 1st version is also a member of Saving Escape. and the drummer in the 3rd version is the same drummer as in '46&2', just a few years older. the 3rd version is killer, check it out if you haven't. i posted links to the 'The Pot' versions here in the comments.

[@TheJaxxT]

@@godscoldhands77 oh so you’re a part of the foundation then I assume? It seems like an incredible place. If we didn’t live across the pond, (I’m assuming you’re in the US) then my son would’ve definitely been a part of it. He’s a self taught guitarist now, and it was from around the age of 15 when he first started. He’s absolutely incredible if I do say so myself. Gojira are his influence, and he doesn’t miss a note from any of their songs. Granted he’s coming up to 22 now but I’m talking when he was younger. The technical side of Gojira was no problem for him. I know he would’ve started at a younger age if we had a foundation like yours here nearby. It’s super impressive hearing about how the kids have progressed from the foundation and I wish them every success

[@godscoldhands77]

@@TheJaxxT oh, no...i've got nothing to do with the foundation, i'm just curious and interested. i'm german living in germany... just following the yt channel of the foundation for a bunch of years, watching almost every video they upload and being totally impressed by the talent of this young musicians. it was the Dream Theater cover (Pull Me Under) that got me hooked a few years back, Kala became my favorite and so i wanted to know what she's doing with her talent outside of the foundation. yeah, Gojira is great, quite technical and not the easiest stuff, it sets the bar high.:) i myself played drums a while back, had a band (thrashy stuff like Testament), recorded a few tracks in a studio and played a lot of local shows. so i'm also familiar with the theoretical background. keep supporting your son.! it's the best feeling when your parents (or mom) are supporting what you love. i know this from my own experience...i began playing drums in school at the age of 14. i was so pumped to this that my parents bought my first drum kit as a christmas gift a few months later. they were supporting me all the time. that's how it all started...but i don't play drums anymore today.

The Okeefe Music Foundation is a rabbit hole worth going down.

Love the excitement and appreciation for this cover. I found this cover years back and was STUNNED! Every bit of it is SO DAMN GOOD...what an arrangement.

[@paulchenpanther1256]

Hi Dude, yeah this cover was Amazing and it`s 10 Years together to make this Video. the Singer, Kala Rose was at this time 11 years old. He have at this Time her own band names "Saving Escapes". The drummer have the Name Curtis Moss.

And now I've watched you guys watch this I love watching you guys watch these it's amazing to me it's a joy but let me tell you I took eight years of classical voice and I played drums in school in jazz band and in marching band Ensemble and I do have timing and I do have an ear and I can sing but to be able to have all the nuances and everything like these kids have in this genre and all these different genres is a gift and not everyone can do it and it is god-given it is not taught you either have it or you don't that's why I said in my above comment these kids are better at this at their age then I'll ever be at anyting in my life and it is amazing watch anyting by the Aaron O'Keefe School watch that little girl sing Dream Theater pull me under and see if that is taught again you guys are so much fun keep rocking

O'Keefe Music Foundation is based in my town, near Cincinnati. My son is taking guitar lessons at the academy where many of the OMF people teach. They are the best.
