[@infusion26]

@TeamMastaPr2 Your right nothing is as good as the real thing !!!

[@Diegoesmiapellido]

👌🏻

[@Bigalwannabe]

love it

[@g_men2121]

This being the birth of rap is something insane. This is way better than the trash thats out today

[@jimilimijimi]

hell yeah

[@TeamMastaPr2]

This is real hiphop/rap music, no autotune or computer generated beats (which sucks) from today. Instead real instruments, bass, drums, synthesizer...

[@maguitobsso]

Nice man!

[@cole.239]

This is the background in the Radio Shack commercials!

[@infusion26]

@cgarbiano I deleted it by accident but now it's back :-)

[@carmenskygazer]

AMAZING !!! May i ask, when did you started to play Bass?

[@zabuzato]

C'mon bro, spin that shit, feel it !

[@infusion26]

Wereld beroemd in heeeeeeeeel Nederland :)

[@madmat01]

Snap! I have the exact same bass.

[@bear4au]

I mean a bad dude!! Like has been said lower views than other covers #smh. Great groove.

[@infusion26]

@duilkin Thanks :-)

[@JosephMedinaDirector]

cool!

[@trashflipper5117]

What bass is that

[@MajorSinnerRecords]

Thanks for sharing.. Couldn't quite suss it out on my own :)

[@ricd5553]

if you could ever post tabs that would be great. I say this because this and good times share bass lines and it looks like there a few small variations that make it sound better.

[@infusion26]

I think the best tabs would be tabs from your heart. Sorry I have learnt this music by ear so I can't help you ! Good luck in your research ! Peace.

[@zacharymorin5696]

infusion26 I can see where your coming from, but, couldn’t you just slow it down and figure out what frets your playing? Not trying to seem rude, I probably wouldn’t take the time either

[@jonielmontador9372]

[@The1977Punk]

If you like Sugarhill Gang, check out TED DUCHAMP - TIME BOMBS, think you'll enjoy it, cheers!

[@13bboom54]

Funky!

[@RodolfoRW]

I have the same bass' model but i cant do that, its realy good!

[@infusion26]

@MrACDC1997 Bedankt :-) Ja zo Nederlands als het maar kan.

[@FIN_Der-Otter]

[@moratts182]

what bass are you playing?

[@infusion26]

Yamaha BB3000

[@FredDude27]

Funky as fuck!

[@RyanRenehan]

does enybody have tab for this

[@brandonbozeman982]

What type of bass are you using for this?

[@infusion26]

Yamaha BB3000 Bass

[@brandonbozeman982]

Ok thanks

[@R0FLxHipocondriaque]

What tab do you use ?

[@jimgaddio6255]

I feel like talking rapidly to this song. Rapping if you will.

[@АндрейФамильев-ж1п]

But it's bassline from Chic - Good Times

[@salomone5765]

Андрей Фамильев Rapper's Delight is more known is my thought on why he named it that instead of the other

[@patrickmannion4952]

Good bass playing, but as far as bass, you're covering Bernard Edwards' groove from "Good Times" (Chic). Don't ever give SHG the credit on that one ;-)

[@bautistadelatorre1941]

y la tablatura?

[@bigfatgigerkid]

Ive been playing this wrong, not any more :)

[@EV1LDRAG0N]

it sounds so good that i would propably said that you cheating xD

[@adammoffat1197]

It's just the chic bassline

[@adityachatterjee8839]

[@cursedswordsman]
