Who noticed the band leader let him cook when he got in his groove and used everyone else to back him up like back up singers. Truth be told the whole band is a gem and Mr Bilal is the diamond on the top of the crown.
600 years ago some French dudes decided to put a slide on an instrument and that paved the way for the most talented and creative musicianship the world has ever seen.
Ever? That’s some strong praise. But then again, I’ve never seen someone be so precise, effortlessly in control of the sounds coming out of a horn. I’m speechless.
@@davidwest7978 look up the creator of the trombone mf, i know black americans feel the need to think they made everything, but Africa overall was not big on metal instruments like this for a long ass time, having a big trumpet like sound is something very old in Europe, one of the oldest i can remember came from Celtic people, and i know damn well they dindt steal from any Black guy because they never even came close to seeing a black person.
45 years later, I now know why my band director said I wasn't good enough. I'll keep playing my trombone till the end, tho. Hopefully I'll channel Mr. Bilal. Dayum.
It’s insane just how much power he can produce. Not only that but the range of highs to low is so impressive. Such a gifted brother and you can tell how much he and his family have worked on their craft. Can’t wait to see the next generation of Bilal’s put their own flavor into playing!
I played it for 12 years.. I didn’t either. This guy has beyond surpassed what I expected mastery to sound like. Didn’t even know that the rabbit hole went that deep
lol- that cheeky low note at @3:55 to remind us that the Trombone is supposed to play on the Bass Clef. Seriously though, amazing. The range, tone quality, style.... Man has a passion and nurtured it into something so impressive for all to enjoy. All my respect goes out to ya
I remember a couple months back I saw that other solo and its stuck with me. Seeing this right here: that's someone who has found their calling and is utilizing their gift. It makes me happy seeing he's gained some recognition but he deserves so much more. If only musicians like him were held in the same regard as athletes.
I'd loved William Bilal or his brother Hank get a DAMN Grammy just because. They have certainly Mastered their instruments that's one thing I know. They should be hired as clinicians for sure.
Yo I closed my eyes thought I was in Harlem nights on the crap table wit SNAKE EYES I wish I knew what my super power was cause I would love to make people feel the way I felt
I gotta see him perform in person. This made my heart and soul dance. I hope he has a successful career in music and continues blowing that trombone for his life
I've heard people say that musicians can make their instrument "sing", but I've never heard a musician sound like they were actually singing through their instrument...@Wil Bilal - you my friend have a gift that I hope you allow more of the world's ears to be blessed with.
Not quite sure what other compliments I could give this young man’s talent and performance that haven’t already been offered! Clearly he’s supremely talented, but I can only imagine the level of work he puts in to truly harness what God’s blessed him with. I was a fan the first time I heard him perform a few years ago and I’m excited to follow his growth and development going forward!
The best part is that they came out so flat and off key that their own band mates were shaking their heads like what is this. Then he started hitting them notes and they started getting into it🎉🎉🎉 ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂
They fye too, but buddy, they were NOT carrying him!!! Dude deserves all the credit and recognition he’s getting from this for sure!! He singing with dat bih!!! Lol
bruh William makes everyone turn head this dude is f*cking AMAING bro i pray he never stop playing not saying for him to just focus on that but in the aspect of him just using that amazing talent and gift working hard and making the whole world and internet world open there eyes to the true power of music, instruments, bands/ marching bands, soloist and every instrumentalist out there.

Im so thankful William Bilal picked up the trombone.
Couldn’t agree more
I guess his family is musical so it was destined
@ChaseKelleh my sentiments exactly. I'm speechless and spellbound.
He’s taking us to church!! I hope he’s getting a nice scholarship
I heard him today for the first time on instagram. I’m now on TH-cam for the last 30 minutes with tears of joy. So much passion
I am in your shoes today
Same here
Still here...
Same here
William Bilal SINGS his emotions through his mouthpiece....what a ride!!!!! His talent just bursts through the uniformity of the band❤❤
It doesn’t even sound like a trombone no more! He created a whole new sound. Trombophone
Nah he literally sung through a trombone which is crazy. He did old blues vocal runs on a trombone 😅😅. That's insanity and pure genius
No that's for sure a trom-trump-aphone
2:05 that sax player is on to 🔥🔥🔥
Who noticed the band leader let him cook when he got in his groove and used everyone else to back him up like back up singers. Truth be told the whole band is a gem and Mr Bilal is the diamond on the top of the crown.
Yes sirrr.. @3:30 release the hounds
Almost took the assistant to the floor 😂😂😂❤
Pointed it out to my lady
3:30 "Do your thing young man"

Da sackbut
Please don't give the French credit for anything... They probably stole it from some black guy and put their name on it like they always do.
Ever? That’s some strong praise. But then again, I’ve never seen someone be so precise, effortlessly in control of the sounds coming out of a horn. I’m speechless.
black folks started this is

The director isn’t getting talked about enough…. Sax & trombone solos were deadly
This dude is the best trombone player I have ever heard
you should check out his older brother.names Hank Bilal
Me too wow
@@cameronlejander8032he play for Benedict also?
I predict a lot of kitty for his trombone in the future.
Trombone shorty is good
There's an old blues soul living in that young man
It’s all church
Jazz is alive in him.
not enough people are talking about that awesome sax solo
not sax brother. . trombone
I think they talkin bout the sax tho 2:05
Something you would hear on a David Gilmour track. really good sax playing.
NO ONE ??? That sax is crazy tooooooo
Cadence on point
Bro with that silky smooth sax solo deserves some love too lol
A song like that takes pain. This kid played like he felt pain in his soul. Truly amazing
I say this all the time. He put some serious stank on his playing. He definitely plays from his soul and that soul has been hurt before.
45 years later, I now know why my band director said I wasn't good enough. I'll keep playing my trombone till the end, tho. Hopefully I'll channel Mr. Bilal. Dayum.
Without him, I would never know how good this instrument can sound.
My sister is right there she plays alto sax in that band so proud of her👍
But will though 😂😂😂
You should be! She’s a part of a group that is so well talented and that’s why she’s there
You can tell that the band director has a huge smile on his face once the trombone solo chorus got started..
His reaction @3:21 says it all! 😂
William is so amazing, I wondered what school he went to... remembered him from that viral video a few years back. What an awesome gift
Will went to Fairfield High in Winnsboro SC
Fairfield Central High ….. Winnsboro SC
Benedict college as well
Was it him or his big brother. They both play. Big bro played same song at same school years ago that's who taught him
That bass note though....
That low B flat sent chills down my spine!
It’s insane just how much power he can produce. Not only that but the range of highs to low is so impressive. Such a gifted brother and you can tell how much he and his family have worked on their craft. Can’t wait to see the next generation of Bilal’s put their own flavor into playing!
I never, ever knew a trombone could sound this good. I seriously underestimated this instrument.
I played it for 12 years.. I didn’t either. This guy has beyond surpassed what I expected mastery to sound like. Didn’t even know that the rabbit hole went that deep
You should check out Wycliffe Gordon …
Me too, me too
@@adawg3032I played also and I’m amazed like wow!!!! Makes me wanna pick it back up since my nieces are in band
@@adawg3032I heard a guy make one whistle
Music is his passion! How he expresses himself through that trombone is as vulnerable as it gets!
He dropped that bass note in there like yassssss u hear itttt🎉🎉🎉
💯💯💯

Did it two times one at the end a lil one
I remember a couple months back I saw that other solo and its stuck with me. Seeing this right here: that's someone who has found their calling and is utilizing their gift. It makes me happy seeing he's gained some recognition but he deserves so much more. If only musicians like him were held in the same regard as athletes.
Or pop/rap artist .. I would love to see one of these Grammy winners do that
I'd loved William Bilal or his brother Hank get a DAMN Grammy just because. They have certainly Mastered their instruments that's one thing I know. They should be hired as clinicians for sure.
It would make more kids do it as well
I was thinking the same thing while watching the video! This gave me chills
Great saxophone solo too
Yes lol. He was just a tad bit out done 😆 🤣 😂
@@ASURA7126 juuuust a little bit 😏 lmao
They’ve been known for a while for having good trombone sections and soloists.
ya no shade, i only know Benedict for their trombones
Just had 2 good soloists over the years lol
@@JohnIvoryMusic actually had 4 or 5 and 2 of them is this guy and his older brother hank
Good is an understatement
@@tydeprince719 “this guy”?
Damn he can play. Not too many ppl give me chills even singing, but playing an instrument he did that!
When is William gonna do some studio quality recordings???
god damn i hope William has a long career in music, that man has a once in a god damn gift.....
This dude is the Jimi Hendrix of trombone!!!
Baby he is the Jimmy, Michael, Whitney and Prince of trombone at this point.
How is this dude not known around the world?
It’s amazing how much talent is out here while we’re listening to Sexyy Red
He is now
Uhhh He Is Now!!!😂
Didn't think anything could top the Black and Blues solo...... I stand corrected.....
Same person
Yo I closed my eyes thought I was in Harlem nights on the crap table wit SNAKE EYES I wish I knew what my super power was cause I would love to make people feel the way I felt
Dude he literally makes the trombone sound like a human voice 🤯
I gotta see him perform in person. This made my heart and soul dance. I hope he has a successful career in music and continues blowing that trombone for his life
🙏🏾 AMEN
I’ve never heard notes like that come out of a trombone. Holy hell this dude is a beast!!! 😊
I played the trombone... I had no idea!!! lol
I didn't know that was possible on trombone - he's amazing!
Look up black and blues trombone fanfare 🔥🔥🔥
Never heard someone play a trombone like that in my life. That was Awesome!🔥🔥🔥
Wycliffe Gordon:

Best part is always band members pointing and looking at opposing fans/bands saying "You can't beat that shit!"
Man when he hit that lowwwww haha!
It's giving "and if I didn't tell drum major to wrap you up, you'd still be out there beating your damn drum!" IYKYK 🤣
This deserves more likes
Just wow, I hear Tuba, Sax, Clarinet even electric guitar coming from a Trombone!
The sax did his thing but when the trombone stepped in and started crying on they ass, it was game over! 😆
Not quite sure what other compliments I could give this young man’s talent and performance that haven’t already been offered!

Ohhhh that band director knows what he's doing, the solos were both incredible 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Too good, got me with tears in my eyes its so good! 😢 These musicians are talented! 👏🏿
Amazing! Typed 'trombone solo' into the search bar and not disappointed. Dude knows how to make that instrument sing
Still my favorite solo on trombone. William bilal is a legend
The spirit of the ancestors resides within this brother loins
I wanna hear him play the national anthem in a blues vibe.
THIS. NEEDS.TO.HAPPEN. A.S.A.P.
Oh my god woww I loved the dance routines!!! The girls were amazing!!!
I have never heard a trombone sing until today😢 that man made me feel where he came from
Everytime I watch Bilal I get more amazed, it’s satisfying to my soul.
One of the best trombonist I've herd, been on fire since High School or before!! Big up Benedict College for going hard in the paint for HBCU's!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mannn this dude can put on a whole concert! ✊🏿💪🏿💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥
This guy truly amazes me! He’s cold! He play with so much passion. You can literally feel every note he play! That’s insane!
that UHOP church flow on the trombone... well done young fella...
The band is one of the man reasons why I love HOP, I’ll always be a member ♥️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@@babieyluve 🙏🏾❤️🤜🏾
Anybody don't know about HOP Convocation and parades needs to go. So many styles of playing and marching.
FACTS!!!!!
My guy lem best photographer/videographer in the game
Every articulation is so incredibly CLEAN
The best part is that they came out so flat and off key that their own band mates were shaking their heads like what is this. Then he started hitting them notes and they started getting into it🎉🎉🎉 ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂
The echo throughout the stadium from the trombone gave me chills.
Tell me you gotta full ride without telling me you got a full ride. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The entire performance was beautiful
They were waving my dude to stop before he was even half way through. 🤣🤣 He was like no playa I got this.
“Sax privilege” only get you so far.
A reed can’t compare to human strength.
This kid is strong and creative.
Hats off!
🗣”That boy good!”
The tubas are CARRYING WITH HIM !!! YALL DONT GIVE THEM CREDIT HERE
Yesssss!!!
I absolutely love it all.
They fye too, but buddy, they were NOT carrying him!!! Dude deserves all the credit and recognition he’s getting from this for sure!! He singing with dat bih!!! Lol
WOW!.....and I thought soul music was dead.❤❤❤
That trombone gives me chills! Those frequecies are beautiful
Goddamn that’s an unbelievably incredible trombone solo
Absolutely phenomenal
Dat boy GOOD!! Lol why do I see the Huxtables doing a dance routine to this lol.
Not only great soloists, but Anazing and awesome everyone included! A sight to see for sure ❤

Third video of him soloing I’ve watched and my god if there was ever a man mad to play Trombone it was him.
Wow! He speaks to the Soul! 🙏🏽🔥❤
Ohhhh I’m mesmerized!!! I wanna go just to hear him play in person!!! Jesus!!! 😮👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽😮
That little head shake, "Naw man. That's it."
Lol true. He knows when it's gonna roll. Just part of being a fucking badass basically
That range is incredible
First time hearing this. As a fellow trombone player, I was moved to tears towards the end. So envious!
All the while the fire alarm going crazy in the background. Very fitting. lol
What a unit holy hell!!!! Incredible playing
A whole unit
I would pay to hear him and his brother Hank play. Ordering their music now.
bruh William makes everyone turn head this dude is f*cking AMAING bro i pray he never stop playing not saying for him to just focus on that but in the aspect of him just using that amazing talent and gift working hard and making the whole world and internet world open there eyes to the true power of music, instruments, bands/ marching bands, soloist and every instrumentalist out there.
Will has done it again 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
As my trombone gently wheeps..
He took it down to tuba just to let you know he like that 😭😭🔥
Peep the drum major face to the director during the solo though, they have exceptional musicians but this guy is on a whole nother level 😮💨🔥
I was there for this and didn’t realize who I was watching!! Wow
This brother is nothing but the truth!!!..
"101" Fall '84....Trombone
Ived watch his video multiple times and it gives me chills everytime and love every second of it
Strong Waluigi vibes in this video
On God lol
He make the trombone sound like a sax 🔥🔥
He just makes it sound so pure...
Wow. enjoyed every bit of that
Unbelievable… totally captivating … so strong … so much conviction
First Trombone Shorty!! Now the Bilal Brothers!!! Made me see the instrument in a new light
What a moment, bruh did that! 👍🏽
