"the joy on her face brings me joy" - You said it brother! ...what we're all feeling watching her... she's tapping into what music is really all about in the first place... no pretense, no worry or anxiety, just getting completely lost in it with complete innocence, doing what she really loves.
@@wheresatari6242 One of the latest videos has her mom, video name: "Killing in the Name - Rage Against the Machine / Cover by Yoyoka & Yoyoka's mom" :-)
Bruh! A german girl (me) watches an american guy watching a japanese kid beating the shit outta RATM. Couldn't be happier right now. Thanks, man! Thanks, Yoyoka!❤
calamity britt And I am a woman half Japanese half Brazilian, reading comments from a German girl who is watching an American guy etcetera... the music has no borders or races, the music has soul and heart ❤️ thanks 😊
Bro! I am a drummer myself, and have watched probably 1,000 different drum covers of different songs. But I'm here to tell you this little cutie did not miss even one gawt dam beat....that was so beautiful it brought a dam tear to my eye 😍💪🤜🤛
If you think this was tight, listen to Guerilla Radio (Rage) by Yoyoka. It is technically perfect and her base drum footwork is so satisfying to watch!!
Lol. Now that you’ve jumped into this realm you need to see her playing Good Times, Bad Times by Zeppelin. There’s also a video of Robert Plant (Zeppelin’s singer) reacting to her playing
I just found out about her yesterday. Watched GT, BT and the reaction video by RP. Amazing. So cool. When Robert said that Bonzo would be so chuffed. Wow.
I'm glad she is now recognized as a world class drummer and not just a cute kid who can play the drums. She has learned and plays everything by ear and only needs 1-2 hours to learn a new song and play it in one take for youtube. She is so expressive because she doesn't copy the original but adds her flavor to everything. And she is only getting started and getting even stronger and expressive.
My favorite of Yoyoka's covers is doing Stray Cats Strut, it's her standing with her snare and one cymbal, dancing around and keeping perfect beat, she's amazing!
Jamal welcome to the world of Yoyoka. She is so technically amazing,no short cuts. She’s been on TH-cam for at least 3 years now. No matter the drummer even John Bonham of Led Zeppelin. Robert Plant Zep’s vocalist has a reaction on TH-cam. She blew him away
EVEN ROBERT PLANT SAID, "I KNOW WHERE SHE CAN GET WORK!!" hopefully she doesnt get burned out at such a young age...she is AWESOME!! LOVED THE LOOK on your face at the end...like, "now...that...is...perfection!!" great drummer...hoping for the best for her future..
What a freak of nature... she's better than about 99% of the drummers I've ever played with! Those ghost notes are amazing, and the power... just incredible. She also does Rosanna by Toto.
"The joy on her face brings me joy". I felt the same way when i first saw her play on you tube it almost brought me to tears on the real. She is a prodigy and something beautiful in an ugly world right now.
I thought she rushed to get that video out before she had perfected the nuances of that shufle. Don't get me wrong, I can't play the drums to save myself and I love her to death (have been a paid subscriber to her channel for a year or so), but I felt she was too excited to show off her newest style before she was actually ready. She later put out a version of Jimiroquai's Virtual Insanity that has the same shuffle and she absolutely nailed that one! She is so great to watch.
She has serious skills, and not just for a 10 year old. She’s already easily good enough to be in any band on earth. Check out some of her more technical videos.
Love your comments, “the smile on her face puts a smile on my face” pure gold sir that’s what life is all about enjoying the uniqueness of one another by god’s will. That’s why he made us all different and unique. Stay safe my brother.
Great comment..."the joy on her face brings me joy"...well said!...I think it brings the whole world joy. My day is now off to a better start...Thanks J.
Congrats on finding Yoyoka. My fav of hers is Grand Funk Railroad An American Band but Do Not Miss her Toto cover the skill on that song is mindblowing.
The truly amazing thing about Yoyoka is that she has vids of her giving drum lessons on line available on TH-cam when she is 5 yrs old....She almost always performs only the best drummers in rock...She has a natural gift of showmanship as well...
The JOY on her face is EXACTLY it. I have seen video after video on YT of children performing music perfectly,BUT with no expression no love for it, no joy. She is having a blast and like you it makes me feel good to know she's enjoying herself and her talent.
Oh now I see, this is the first time you’ve seen her! Yes I did have the same reaction and I think she is arguably the best drummer on here and definitely better than anyone under 18 as I said in the other reaction video. Your reactions are priceless!
what i love..if you watch the cam in the lower window..her little foot can just barely reach the kick pedal and shes doing double and triple rolls on that base drum
I like the moment when she plays this mini solo in between, with that awesome tight timed drum roll ... look at your face. I was astonished too when I heard it the first time.
She not only kills this song she ADDS drum fills. I always wanted to play the drums.... I think I'll stick with drinking beers and doing the laundry... can't wait to see where she will be in 10 years... GO YOYOKA!
My initial response to seeing Yoyoka for the first time, A perfect blend of Joy, Ferocity, and Talent. I've never been that good at anything in my life and shes only 10.
It's so flipping heartwarming to see other people react and be moved by such talent. "Oh my goodness, you see her lil feets?!". I love it! Such a beautiful positivity in a trying time. Stay safe, everyone.
If you are having a bad day, you need to watch Yoyoka playing Guerilla Radio by Rage Against the Machine. It is technically perfect and her foot work in base drum is insane!! It is so satisfying...
Thats my girl! Shes awesome! She looks like shes having so much fun when she plays. And, yeah, shes legit! There is a video on here of her playing live in concert with Fallout Boy, doing "Going Down". Great clip, you should check it out.
yoyo's a beast! her whole family plays in a band. you should check out her zeppelin covers. there's a video out there of Robert Plants reaction to her playing good times, bad times. he was all smiles
Your face at 5:04 says it all. Not only is she a delight to watch, but she is also incredibly good! Her groove and natural ability is beyond us mere mortals. Great reaction!!
Watching you be amazed by Yoyoka’s drums makes my heart really happy. I’m Japanese So I don’t know if this English is suitable But it was a very nice video😻 I am also a big fan of Yoyoka
Yoyoka is a treasure! You're right about her joy being infectious, she makes me want to learn to play drums. As others are saying check out her "Good Times Bad Times" from when she was 8 (there's actually two from that age, do the green shirt yellow pants one). But also, for just pure joy, check out her cover of The Stray Cats "Rock This Town"
Please introduce Yoyoka's "other covers". Rock fans around the world will be thrilled to learn about yoyoka. Even though I'm Japanese, I didn't know yoyoka until just two months ago. I'm a huge yoyoka fan right now. If you're a rock fan, maybe everyone
yep this is the first video I ever saw of this girl and it's still my favorite. I pretty much had the exact same reaction as you Jamal and like....this is a video I can watch if I'm having a not great day and it immediately lifts my mood, guaranteed
If seeing Yoyoka play some of these songs doesn't make your heart smile, you probably ain't got a heart. lol. After 20 years of not playing guitar, i restarted after seeing her playing 'killing in the name of' on TH-cam
You ought to see her playing Led Zeppelin's "Good Times Bad Times." John Bonham was one of the greatest Rock drummers in the world, and she played it perfectly. Find it on you tube, it makes this video look tame. You ain't seen nothin, till you seen that video of her abilities.
10yrs old iwas proud of my new banana seat i saved for & bought and put on. Geeeeeeeeeeez and just gave up my G.I. Joe with the kung fu grip about a yr earlier to lil bro. This girl beat them skins like they owe her some money. Well done.
Love your observations, Jamel. Yoyoka plays the songs better than the original drummers she covers. She gets it. She is superhuman. She makes me want to live forever so I can watch her play forever!
I probably don't "like" videos as often as youtuber's would want, but Yoyoka's got an immediate thumbs up from me the first time I saw it. That was a pure joy to watch.
I feel like very few kids are interested in learning an instrument these days. But much of it is related to our education system. When school districts have to make budget cuts, the music programs are usually first on the chopping block. And that sucks because I feel like learning an instrument can really be beneficial to children.

OMG, I'm soooo happy you found out about this girl. She is crazy good! And I'm pretty sure the joy on her face brings EVERYONE joy.
Yoyoka does a lot of drum covers, she's bad ass and cute as a button!
Perfect definition!
So cute, and it cracks me up that she can barely reach the bass pedal but still rocks. Credit to her folks for getting her out to the world.
Its the Hello Kitty socks! Oh, and the prodigious talent
She's feeling the funk, for sure. Mad props to her and her parents for introducing her to fire music early.
Have you seen/heard her mom ? :-)
@@autohmae No. I didn't realize she did youtube.
@@wheresatari6242 One of the latest videos has her mom, video name: "Killing in the Name - Rage Against the Machine / Cover by Yoyoka & Yoyoka's mom" :-)
@@autohmae thanks. I'll check it out.

Belgian guy approves all of this. Music unites 🤟
Bro! I am a drummer myself, and have watched probably 1,000 different drum covers of different songs. But I'm here to tell you this little cutie did not miss even one gawt dam beat....that was so beautiful it brought a dam tear to my eye 😍💪🤜🤛
Have you seen her do "Steam" by Peter Gabriel? Wow. I just shake my head. Shes better than alot of drummers I know, myself included.
Me too
If you think this was tight, listen to Guerilla Radio (Rage) by Yoyoka. It is technically perfect and her base drum footwork is so satisfying to watch!!
When I was 10 I was still getting my head stuck in chairs.
John Dee I still am and I'm 61 LOL
That's pretty impressive too
Lololol
Hahaha! Laughing so hard I almost couldn’t type that!
😂😂😂😂
I’ve been following her ever since I saw that Zep cover. She is ridiculously talented!
Same here, she is really great talented gal 🤟♥️
Lol. Now that you’ve jumped into this realm you need to see her playing Good Times, Bad Times by Zeppelin. There’s also a video of Robert Plant (Zeppelin’s singer) reacting to her playing

Absolutely. She does an incredible job on Good Times, Bad Times.
TH-cam rule #1: when Yoyoka waves at you with her drumstick you WAVE BACK DAMMIT
Absolutely
Youre damn skippy.
Been following her for a few years. She's going to be one of the BEST drummers of the 21st century. The girls got amazing taste in music.
I'm glad she is now recognized as a world class drummer and not just a cute kid who can play the drums.
She has learned and plays everything by ear and only needs 1-2 hours to learn a new song and play it in one take for youtube. She is so expressive because she doesn't copy the original but adds her flavor to everything.

YEEEESSS!!!!!! Love that too!!!!!!
That vid is a master class in cuteness...
She was recently complimented by Brad Wilk (RATM'S drumner) for how well she did on this.
Jamal welcome to the world of Yoyoka. She is so technically amazing,no short cuts. She’s been on TH-cam for at least 3 years now. No matter the drummer even John Bonham of Led Zeppelin. Robert Plant Zep’s vocalist has a reaction on TH-cam. She blew him away
Yes! I was hoping you would see one of her videos...she is absolutely amazing!!!
EVEN ROBERT PLANT SAID, "I KNOW WHERE SHE CAN GET WORK!!" hopefully she doesnt get burned out at such a young age...she is AWESOME!! LOVED THE LOOK on your face at the end...like, "now...that...is...perfection!!" great drummer...hoping for the best for her future..

I reacted to her video, which I usually don't do, but she is wonderful and she was having a blast. Oh, the joy on her face.
I'm a 42yr male, now that ive seen her play. I'm a 42yr male with a drum kit for sale.......
@TD Welch
Just to depress you. She's learning how to play the guitar.
kid is mind boggling incredible on drum kit. never seen before IMO.
@@nishinasuno Well, guess I need to sell my guitars.
That's a great comment made me laugh
Hahahahahahaha!
Beatin' on those things like they owe her money! Go girl!
I have watched a lot of her videos.
She not only knows what she is doing she plays with authority. Scary to think how good she can get.
"The joy on her face brings me joy". I felt the same way when i first saw her play on you tube it almost brought me to tears on the real. She is a prodigy and something beautiful in an ugly world right now.
Very well said.
Toto - Rosanna is the cover by her that really blows my mind, the shuffle rhythm is famously hard as hell to master & she does it like it's nothing
I thought she rushed to get that video out before she had perfected the nuances of that shufle. Don't get me wrong, I can't play the drums to save myself and I love her to death (have been a paid subscriber to her channel for a year or so), but I felt she was too excited to show off her newest style before she was actually ready.

She has serious skills, and not just for a 10 year old. She’s already easily good enough to be in any band on earth.
Check out some of her more technical videos.
She played a song live with Fallout Boy recently - apparently only a short rehearsal beforehand in a dressing room. She nailed it.
Love your comments, “the smile on her face puts a smile on my face” pure gold sir that’s what life is all about enjoying the uniqueness of one another by god’s will. That’s why he made us all different and unique. Stay safe my brother.
Great comment..."the joy on her face brings me joy"...well said!...I think it brings the whole world joy. My day is now off to a better start...Thanks J.
Two of my favourite TH-camrs, Jamal and Yoyoka :)
Congrats on finding Yoyoka.
My fav of hers is Grand Funk Railroad An American Band but Do Not Miss her Toto cover the skill on that song is mindblowing.
This little girl is such a badass. Props to her her and her family for being supportive. Love it !
Her cover of Steam by Peter Gabriel is magnificent 🙌🏻
I think that is my favorite one.
I've been playing as long as I've been walking... steam is super groovy, and she's got it DOWN... never heard it better.
Completely agree!!
The truly amazing thing about Yoyoka is that she has vids of her giving drum lessons on line available on TH-cam when she is 5 yrs old....She almost always performs only the best drummers in rock...She has a natural gift of showmanship as well...
I’m speechless. I have no words. Just pure brilliance.
When i have had a bad day @ work i always watch a Yoyoka video if the joy on her face does not cheer you up then your dead inside.
The JOY on her face is EXACTLY it. I have seen video after video on YT of children performing music perfectly,BUT with no expression no love for it, no joy. She is having a blast and like you it makes me feel good to know she's enjoying herself and her talent.
Yoyoka is a great empathy test. If you're an empathetic person you cannot watch her and not be infected by the joy and playfulness on her face
You said it all when you said look at the joy on her face! I smile all through song!
Whoa, this was fantastic; her happy energy level is totally infectious. Immediate subscription to her channel.
Oh now I see, this is the first time you’ve seen her! Yes I did have the same reaction and I think she is arguably the best drummer on here and definitely better than anyone under 18 as I said in the other reaction video. Your reactions are priceless!
Pat McCann She’s better than most drummers period.
Always awesome to see the younger generation have passion for music she was awesome
what i love..if you watch the cam in the lower window..her little foot can just barely reach the kick pedal and shes doing double and triple rolls on that base drum
I know its crazy how good she is with her feet...she is already famous.7-10 yrs from now. $$$$$$
This girl is like a once in a lifetime discovery. Her talent is terrifying. Imagine how she’ll be in ten years time. Absolutely amazing
How about in FIVE years??!!??
Cool, You've been introduced to Yoyoka. She's awesome...Her whole family is. Hope to see you react to her more in the future.
Dude I'm glad you checked this girl's skills out. Blows my mind. I've been watching her videos and just amazed. Keep up the good work Jamel!
thanks for this that ! was awesome and made me smile!! nice to be able to do these days
That kid has made smile more in the past two weeks than I have in the past year.
You should see her doing Queen's Stone Cold Crazy. She just gives you the sweetest smile.
Yes that is crazy! Even her families songs on Apple Music are really impressive and Yoyoka applies the drum phrases. She is so watchable.
Love this little lady I have seen many of her amazing videos !!
I like the moment when she plays this mini solo in between, with that awesome tight timed drum roll ... look at your face. I was astonished too when I heard it the first time.
She not only kills this song she ADDS drum fills. I always wanted to play the drums.... I think I'll stick with drinking beers and doing the laundry... can't wait to see where she will be in 10 years... GO YOYOKA!
badass drummer in an adorable package :D always impresses me with these wunder-kids
Whoooo!!! Watch little miss go! :) :) Oh my gosh, she is the cutest little girl and she can really play!!
You found Yoyoka! She's somethin' special for sure. :)
Thanks dude for showing her to us!!! That was so much fun to watch
My initial response to seeing Yoyoka for the first time, A perfect blend of Joy, Ferocity, and Talent. I've never been that good at anything in my life and shes only 10.

I had this video come up on my TH-cam feed a few months ago. All I could think was she look like she is having fun.
The joy on both your faces brings me joy.
No Mercy On Those Drums 🥁🤠🤘🏼🥁🤠🤘🏼🥁🤠🤘🏼🥁🤠🤘🏼🥁

That was incredible, she left me speechless......wow

thanks J. i follow her. so happy you finally discovered it.
"They joy on her face brings me joy" - 100% correct. One of the few bright spots for me in 2020
she sure is bringing the joy. unless you r her kit in which case she brings the beat down on you. love this
That joy is what it's about and makes it all worth it!😁
Your face at 5:04 says it all. Not only is she a delight to watch, but she is also incredibly good! Her groove and natural ability is beyond us mere mortals. Great reaction!!
Watching you be amazed by Yoyoka’s drums makes my heart really happy.
I’m Japanese
So I don’t know if this English is suitable
But it was a very nice video😻
I am also a big fan of Yoyoka
私はアメリカ人です. Keiko Tagawa, 英語はとても上手です! よよかの動画が大好きです.
🥰
The length of a Jamal stare is the measure of greatness !!
Yoyoka is a treasure! You're right about her joy being infectious, she makes me want to learn to play drums. As others are saying check out her "Good Times Bad Times" from when she was 8 (there's actually two from that age, do the green shirt yellow pants one). But also, for just pure joy, check out her cover of The Stray Cats "Rock This Town"
She even had the stank face at the end. LOL !!! God bless that angel.
you nailed it Brother, the joy on her facer brings me joy!

She must have the best parents in the world. And you're right on with the joy on her face - easy to see she loves it.
This is the best. Please do more with Yoyoka!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Now you're watching Yoyoka videos? It's like somebody got their peanut-butter in my chocolate!
yep this is the first video I ever saw of this girl and it's still my favorite. I pretty much had the exact same reaction as you Jamal and like....this is a video I can watch if I'm having a not great day and it immediately lifts my mood, guaranteed

Love this little girl! Check out her Led Zeppelin cover videos when she was 7 and 8 years old. Amazing! You might like her cover of Uptown Funk, also.
Too much of Yoyoka is never enough, she's the cutest.
"Lube up the family ---with a pocket full of gel" . Yoyoka has more rhythm in an eyelash than I have in my whole body. Absolutely amazing.
foo fighters, nirvana, ledzep she nails them all. soooo good and the joy you see her playing is good enough to make anything and anyone smile.
You ought to see her playing Led Zeppelin's "Good Times Bad Times." John Bonham was one of the greatest Rock drummers in the world, and she played it perfectly. Find it on you tube, it makes this video look tame. You ain't seen nothin, till you seen that video of her abilities.
There is a video interview of Robert Plant watching Yoyoka play Zeppelin, and he offers her a job.
When she was 8 years old!
yes, her rendition of good times, bad times is amazing
10yrs old iwas proud of my new banana seat i saved for & bought and put on. Geeeeeeeeeeez and just gave up my G.I. Joe with the kung fu grip about a yr earlier to lil bro. This girl beat them skins like they owe her some money. Well done.
I’m so glad you watched this! She is sooo special it isn’t even funny.
Love your observations, Jamel. Yoyoka plays the songs better than the original drummers she covers. She gets it. She is superhuman. She makes me want to live forever so I can watch her play forever!
Yoyoka takes no prisoners with her infectious, joyous, smile! (and prodigious talent)
I probably don't "like" videos as often as youtuber's would want, but Yoyoka's got an immediate thumbs up from me the first time I saw it. That was a pure joy to watch.
Look at the joy... love seeing kids play instruments
I feel like very few kids are interested in learning an instrument these days. But much of it is related to our education system. When school districts have to make budget cuts, the music programs are usually first on the chopping block. And that sucks because I feel like learning an instrument can really be beneficial to children.
You are so right Jamel! She loves to play the drums and it shows. She's so bad ass! Plus she plays in her socks🧦! I love it! She rocks like you!!!
She is the real deal.
Straight up BOSS Every time I think I’m good at something there is a ten year old Asian that just humbles me. Kids a star now give her a few years
Lets hope we see all this generation of musicians make it big to follow them in the near future!, and being a fan for a lot of time.
