If you're here just know your music taste is 🔥

[@eniocab]

litty committee

[@copache]

I don't agree

[@gabrieltorrence12]

As a drummer I truly appreciate Colors letting someone showcase their skills on instruments. 💙🔥

[@maxbernard1116]

Thats what colors are for i guess all about differentiality

[@Skyjuice70]

As a drummer myself, I also agree. Would love to see them showcase more.

[@TheLamaprod]

same!!!

[@TheStramGarden]

Then watch the episode with fkj, not playing drums in this particular one but you see him play many differents things

[@rosshudson8197]

I’ve seen this guy and his band 3 times in the space of 2 years and I can’t get enough, truly one of the greatest musicians of this modern era don’t think he gets enough praise

[@rafa_rds]

Dude, I'm so stoked he's coming to my country! I'm about to see him live in January 17th and everytime I watch some of his live performances I get super freaking happy and the music just moves me places

[@VoltaDoMar]

I just saw him live in Seattle. I was always sad that I never saw Ahmad Jamal live, so I wasn't going to make that mistake with Yussef Dayes. I'll see him whenever I can

[@rosshudson8197]

@@VoltaDoMar I’m exactly the same can never see an artist you like enough

[@Hebsparks]

Just had to sell my tickets for his Minneapolis show :::(((( Can’t wait to see them live one day.

[@rosshudson8197]

@@Hebsparks sorry to hear that dude! It’ll be worth the wait when you do trust me

[@byronalfaro5550]

drummers know how difficult it truly is to be rhythmic, consistent AND entertaining. I’m glad drumming is appreciated as an artistic outlet and not just a background component.

[@saveliy-7763]

The fact that you can see how he enjoys the groove makes it 1000 times better. Outstanding performance, excellent record. Jazz is the way. ❤

[@gabriella2682]

Jazz for life ♡♡♡

[@Sdween]

Yussef doesn’t play music. He becomes music.

[@bradleygagne1996]

whoever placed those mics deserves a big Christmas present 😮‍💨🖤 amazing sound

[@wadebrock163]

I believe that’s Rory cashmere!

[@michaelcaplin8969]

They miced it like it was the 70's. Few engineers know how to do that anymore actually! amazing work!

[@zuster4real]

This guys sound is so good. Even outside recordings sound too good to be true.

[@b4thepreposition]

Every drum fill is so tasteful… talk about music with a nutritional value 😮‍💨✨

[@fxw1524]

2:11 THAT, THAT RIGHT THERE. That’s why we love music. Seeing the happiness and emotion when he hit those singular notes is more beautiful than anything imaginable. Wow.

[@arnezedwards5560]

I was looking for this comment. I appreciate you.

[@arnezedwards5560]

When he figured it out🎉

[@Mrelisha999]

His smile after that....gold

[@CloseUpLover]

he actually messed up the end of the fill and thats why he smiled afterwards, no wonder its really a difficult part

[@tiagomelchior]

This guy plays like a monster and yet it sounds so kind and so sublime. Love Yussef’s work. 🤍🤌

[@MartynCollins]

Best live shows of 2023. Blessed to have the experience three times.

[@CallmeShadowyn]

The legend! Yussef Dayes deserves this spot. I just need to see Jazzbois now!

[@fergexfisherman]

hell yeah

[@extremea7974]

is jazzbois his band? never heard of it

[@johncitizen8828]

No, they are a German jazz trio and they are great. Check ‘em out.

[@julianc.6589]

jazzbois spot in the wild love it, they're coming to austin tx next year if you wanna see em stateside

[@julianc.6589]

yee hungarian actually but they're dope regardless

[@BeatBangerJordan]

Soon as I saw his name I clicked on this as fast as I could......I'm gonna be riding to this on the way home from work for sure!!!!

[@RedRoverTW]

So much soul. So much heat. So much love. 🙏🔥❤️

[@talisaweird]

his album black classical music was a highlight of this year. Thank you for doing what you do yussef

[@realeyesrealisereallies97]

🐐

[@cmooreHD]

100 percent !!

[@Phonophobia]

The whole album is a banger, just like "Welcome to the Hills" already was. This man is manifesting his way into musical stardom and I'm all for it.

[@martinmanry4523]

Coolest dude on the planet. Seeing Chasing the drum live in Austin was phenomenal. We’re all lucky to be witnesses of the greatness that is 👑 Yussef Dayes! 🙏🏼

[@FloralGiant]

Fell in love with Yussef's music a few years ago, so stoked to see him in his own COLORS show finally!

[@qiminong5634]

You know it's gonna be 🔥if it's Yussef Dayes

[@flyl0.]

Yessir

[@CallmeShadowyn]

Most def, I would of lost my mind if the whole dream team gave Colors the experience.

[@ksquared5924]

If there's a God mode level, Yussef plays at it. Dope. My ears have been blessed. 🥰

[@fensky6873]

The best drummer alive, and you dont need to have taste to figure it out, simply close your eyes, and you'll find out

[@obin8910]

💚🤍🙏🏽 straight up

[@bailahie4235]

I love Yussef, but he is not the "best drummer" alive. Apples and pears. Larnell Lewis? Dafnis Prieto? Jeff Ballard? Just to name a few... These guys are incredible too...

[@libidooverdrive]

You know...when people say someone is the best drummer or musician alive, it kinda deflates the compliment . Its not grounded in reality.

[@bailahie4235]

E.g. Larnell Lewis: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJWUiWiAjMZ6nbMfeature=shared&t=356

[@bailahie4235]

I.e. Dafnis Prieto (!!!): kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZrViWila7KIgJY

[@seanpolding7232]

Yussef is the real deal man. I saw him live in Bristol earlier this year and he was absolutely spectacular. They had him on a riser right in the middle and him and his band absolutely killed it!

[@nic87lo]

Yussef is like meditation for me. Thanks man

[@angelaalmeidacorreia8873]

Ugh i'm in LOVE. The combination of the drums and the jazzy groove is PERFECT. And seeing Yussef perform so passionately is beautiful man.

[@cmooreHD]

This is one of the best yet! His enjoyment playing drums makes me just as happy! His Black Classic music album was on heavy repeat this year! He deserves all the praises! 🎉

[@oscarh4066]

This, like other live performances by Yusuf, is absolutely mesmerizing! Watching him play the drums is like witnessing a master at work. His incredible skills and the sheer joy he exhibits while playing are not just inspiring but also infectious. It's clear that he doesn't just play music; he feels it deeply, and that feeling radiates out to the audience. The happiness while drumming brings a special kind of light into the lives of us, his audience. Thank you for sharing your extraordinary talent and passion with us, Yusuf! Keep shining and keep playing! I can't wait to see you live.

[@theinfamouspokeinrichmondc3543]

I have seen him every time he comes to the Bay Area. It is an INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE to see him live. He belongs in the conversation with great drummers such as Elvin Jones, Tony Allen, and Questlove.

[@BIGTASTEMUZIC]

he may not consider himself a master but i see the mastery and the heart and soul it took to get there. and the only way i can see that is feel it. AMAZING

[@mt508]

Saw him at The Royal Albert Hall a couple of months ago. An outstanding evening and he filled the place with one of the most diverse audiences I've seen. There were people there even older than me! We really are in a golden age in the UK as far as young Jazz musician's are concerned. Thanks for the music Yussef.

[@fgtrtd4152]

Man when you see something that's just so absolutely top tier it's undeniable.

[@jukeboxxgamer]

I've been obsessed with his Black Classical Music album since it came out amd couldn't have been more hyped to see him on colors!

[@Music-Reviews]

Peak 'DO YA LIKE JAZZ?!' Vibes and we're here for it all day and night.

[@ayo.mbali_]

Love seeing an artist in flow state, Yussef is amazing 🫶🏽

[@vkproductions4877]

Talk about trip through the quasars with sound and DRUM 🥁

[@BryceEvans]

Bro has so much soul and he always pours it into those drums. ✨🙌✨ One of my top artists

[@CraZ3lmo]

So much passion, hands down the most expressive drummer in the world. Yussef Dayes is THE man!

[@jessgates200]

He had me at "Love is the Message" some years back. It has been so cool to see him ascending yearly-its up up from this point-go well brother :) thank you COLORS for consistently knocking it out.

[@phanke8685]

That song is like a magic pill for my youngest daughter when she’s fussy or having a hard time getting to sleep. I can play it and she will immediately calm down, and fall asleep as I rock her to the music. I’ve probably played it for her over 50 times. I have so much appreciation for Yussef and all the people on that track. Glad I got to see him live with his current lineup a couple weeks ago

[@bolionce]

⁠​⁠@@phanke8685you raising a music connoisseur right there! She’s got a head start to be part of the future of jazz lovers and for that, I salute you 🫡

[@Tumikey]

I went to the show in Houston and it was worth every cent. Got to be one of the best players of all time because they jump into the next song effortlessly barley taking any breaks the entire set! He was in the zone for over an hour and 30 minutes at least! AMAZING!!

[@bmb1980]

So cool to hear where everyone else has heard him and the band playing live!

[@smoothjazz1954]

What a set of drums baby. I so enjoy watching you play❣️
