I mean, obviously Tony was killing. But I gotta give a shoutout to the horns. To have the chops and endurance to blast like that lol. I could never. My lips would be shot 2 minutes in.
@@Dave-bo8ry Ah okay....I haven't read about this sample info in years, I thought Isaac Hayes remade it. I know he did the other Shaft movies. But Thank You for the nostalgia and info! 💜
freaking HILARIOUS when Jay -Z forget where he's at in the song because he's so mesmerized by Tony on the drums and at 3:25 he's looking at his boys like "Damn are y'all seeing this????" Tony's awesome
@@timoaksproductions Bru that shit is iconic tony a beast ever since the greatest the greatest solo ever been recorded just think we are the first generation to be old enough to see the a lot of the first classics viral videos
I love how flabbergasted Jay-Z is at how tight the band it (drummer Tony Royster, Jr. In particular) that he miscues and nearly messes up his own song! LOVE IT!! YEAH T-ROY!!!
I like how they showed Jay-Z's video at first and then they couldn't deny Tony's drumming talent so they showed the rest of the performance on the jumbo tron screen.
I think he could’ve been turned up a little more and he was clean with it as you have to be live and in a performance like this but I think they should have given his some more leeway to put a little more funk on it however he wanted to do it but he was killing it
@@JudgeDredd_ I agree. Maybe they kept the level down cause at certain points there are intonation discrepancies. No matter, he is cutting through. Tenor sax man.... nothing like it. Cheers dude.
Indeed! The tenor sax has presence! I also like how they had him play over the sample and then he played the line and they blended it in. Lovely stuff.
Notice how during the verses when the drum break comes up he goes easy to give Jay Z room, and only sheds on the breaks where there’s nothing else going on. Would expect nothing less from Tony
showing respect to the musicianship and talent you surround yourself with is something a lot of Stars could learn from. The story is that Horácio ("el Négro") Hernández, one of the greatest, and humblest, drummers of our time, lost his seat on someone's, who will go unnamed, tour. One of the highest paying gigs lost because he got a good review on his drumming! Jay-z doesn't look like that kind of artist at all here.
I've been singing this song to my 7-month-old granddaughter and playing with her arms going back and forth Aye aye. So I said I had to come here and listen to this song with my grandbaby and jam. The drummer beat them drums up he killed it. So did Jay-Z. The band is the bomb!
one thing people lined up to watch jay z's concert coz of his music crew, the artists/musicians the he have are so talented. its like he has an orchestra at his back..
I will give you FIVE FAT DOLLARS if that _isn't_ young TONY ROYSTER JR. on those drums. Tony Royster Jr., I recall, being in a _humiliatingly_ dope drum-video _way_ back when ... he was, like, nine. maybe. we shared this, we spread this way around back BEFORE 'Tube, torrents, all that - it was Limewire, it was Kazaa. it just sounds like him. that's one of the freshest drum sounds there is. that's so clean it hurts. it may not be him. I don't know. but if it ISN'T ... that is one crazy, crazy drummer. that's our future. look forward to it.
This is the song drummers dream of.
Yes.
No lieee
So true
I love playing this
Facts 🔥🔥🔥🫡
He was so disrespectful to to those drums I love it
100 agree
No respect at all fr
Like them drums capped on his momma. Tony is a killer! Period!
Nothing like BAM .. NOTHING LIKE BAM!!!
Say what?! What you talking about, Mr Tony made passionate love to them drums!!! 🤣🤣🤣💯
That drummer had Jay-Z speechless for a min! Applaud 👏🏼 to all the musicians! They were very good.
Tony royster Jr one the best ever
It’s made for drummers by a drummer.
Haha I love it. Jays just vibin on stage
"let me see what you've got"
That's all it takes for us drummers to hear and we're giving you 300%.
300? That nigga would’ve thought I had 8 arms and 6 legs I swear to god
it's tony royster feat jay-z
Michał Wysocki EXACTLY LOOK THE SCREENS LOL

😂😂😂😂🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Tony different
I mean, obviously Tony was killing. But I gotta give a shoutout to the horns. To have the chops and endurance to blast like that lol. I could never. My lips would be shot 2 minutes in.
@@colebrown8293 i care
RIght?! The horns killed it. But at least Tony's solos gave them a little breather. lol
Yes!!! Especially the sample....this is a sample from Isaac Hayes I believe
@@scootabean The sample is "Shaft in Africa," by Johnny Pate. Hayes did the original from "Shaft."
@@Dave-bo8ry Ah okay....I haven't read about this sample info in years, I thought Isaac Hayes remade it. I know he did the other Shaft movies. But Thank You for the nostalgia and info! 💜
Apparently this was the first time JayZ heard Tony play the song. Jay Z genuinely awe struck.
3:16 can’t be real he flipped the drm stick while hitting the drum is crazy
freaking HILARIOUS when Jay -Z forget where he's at in the song because he's so mesmerized by Tony on the drums
and at 3:25 he's looking at his boys like "Damn are y'all seeing this????"
Tony's awesome
right

The first time he actually saw talent…
The background singers were phenomenal, and so necessary with their "yeah yeah"...

The drummer is fucking CRAZY!!!!
Tony Royster Jr. is the prodigy🤘
Tenor sax owning this one. Drummer is as good as it gets.

@@JudgeDredd_ I agree. Maybe they kept the level down cause at certain points there are intonation discrepancies. No matter, he is cutting through. Tenor sax man.... nothing like it. Cheers dude.
Tony Royster, Jr is still a beast!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That drummer is killing it bruh...
Tony Royster Jr. just a awsome drummer .

The horn section is killing it to.
Indeed! The tenor sax has presence! I also like how they had him play over the sample and then he played the line and they blended it in. Lovely stuff.
Y'all we gotta give it to Bam, as well..he was on the actual record. The real blueprint for the entire set.
Facc 1500 or nothing
2:09 Jay-Z was watching th e drummer
awesome shit!!!!!
Notice how during the verses when the drum break comes up he goes easy to give Jay Z room, and only sheds on the breaks where there’s nothing else going on. Would expect nothing less from Tony
Jay-Z just studying Tony like that throughout the song must have motivated him to go even harder!!
that drummer had my eyes water, sheesh
one of the best drummers in da game Tony Royster jr so sick
That drummer is DOPE.
Jay looking back like i done started some shit 😂

I love that this song was recorded with real drums too and the drummer was allowed to go all out with the fills.
