Omg! I have been following Rihanna for years - so glad she's becoming well known! Afficianado of roots music, she is a student of roots, blues and traditional black music. Cheers to her performance, and her star is rising🎉❤!!
@@barbaralewkowitz5624 *Anyone with EARS knows Rhianna does NOT perform "roots music", it was only a typo.The person clearly knows who Rhiannon Giddens is.*
I first saw her years ago when she was with the Carolina Chocolate Drops. And I said at the time - see her now while you still can still see her in a small venue. Her success is absolutely thrilling!
She's a national treasure! 'Get a ticket...' - she was in NYC late 2023 and the cheapest tickets were $300+ - I was thinking I needed an eye exam but the $cost was real.
@@mjw12345 Did her entire Carnegie Hall Series for that much. Even the recital hall which only has 278 seats was 1/3 the cost for great seats. Were those reseller prices?
been so in love with rhiannon for many, many years. such an absolute talent. if y'all haven't heard snowden's jig by the carolina chocolate drops, stop what you're doin & download it now! it's such a beautiful, almost haunting?, instrumental. almost 15 years after its release & it still stays in heavy rotation in my playlists. i wish ms giddens many more years of success. 🫶🏽
I wish people will STOP saying there are no black people in Country and that Beyonce "broke barriers" and started a trend! Rhiannon Giddens, Mickey Guyton, Darius Rucker, Jimmie Allen, Brittany Howard, plenty of others.
Beyonce is a fantastic singer but she's not anything special here honestly. Rhiannon will be the first person to tell you that country music is HEAVILY derived from black music. Hell, anything that isn't European Classical or Baroque music has black influence in it -- which is basically everything regular people listen to. The Blues is black, "the blues had a baby and they called it rock 'n roll" as they say...from that stems everything: gospel, soul, jazz, funk, hip hop, rap -- everything has black influence in it 🔥🔥
@@shlby69m, I definitely feel that Zydeco is in its own lane. A very special lane at that !! Absolutely love Zydeco !! An old saying ; The Blues had another baby, whose daddy is rumored to have been a hillbilly, and that baby was named Country...
@@jeffcrusan2102The blues had another baby whose daddy was rumored to have been a hillbilly, and that baby was named Country... I eat, sleep, and drink the blues ❤ Just thought you would get a kick outta that old saying!
Saw Rihanna last night…..amazing woman and performance. The band is second to none. I loved everything about the show and the diversity of all the songs they performed. Can’t wait to see her perform again.
WoW!!! That was Very Nice!!! Ended way too son... Must have been something to do with...'that Louisiana man!' Rhiannon Giddens...YOU DONE DONE IT AGAIN!!! You and your whole BAND!!! ...and that smirk... Right on!
Wow. This is way more country than the big charting slick and pop tracks that are sung over with a stereotypical twang and passed off as C&W. More fiddles and banjos please with a little pedal steel guitar now and then.
YES! Good music and Rhiannon is a WOMAN! Nice tone on the banjo, the loose strings and picking style give it a smooth tone, great rhythm banjo NOT too trebly
*For some reason, parts of this song remind me of the now defunct British jazz/rock band Colosseum AND the great British folk music of Fairport Convention, whatever, the song and musicianship on display here is amazing! Rhiannon is GREAT, she's a superb musician and singer. She has a varied catalog of music, she knows her stuff! I remember first seeing her on the 2014 HBO special about the newly discovered, at the time, Dylan lyrics, 'The Lost Tapes". I've been a fan for years. It's about time popular music actual gets back to REAL actual MUSIC (no annoying autotune and a ridiculous Las Vegas style stage show to distract fans the the 'singer' can not sing!)....Rhiannon is definitely real music!*
@@RidgeRunner-lz5ko Actually Rhiannon is very vocal about AA origins in Country music. It was one of the things that inspired her with the banjo. She talks about race.

If she comes to your town to perform, get a ticket to the show. You will not believe her talent!!!
She is just brilliant!

I saw her in concert here in Tucson last month... Phenomenal.
Great to see Rhiannon on the big stage! And great to see Dirk Powell sawing away alongside her
Dirk Powell worked pretty hard at trying to grab the limelight from the others unfortunaetly
Love! Seeing this band last night in Helsinki made me totally a huge fan of Rhiannon!
This is absolute powerhouse stuff. RG looking mighty fine

Would you call Rhiannon Zydeco? And is Zydeco considered 'country' music?
Those who lack knowledge shouldn't speak as if they are knowledgeable...
@@shlby69m, I definitely feel that Zydeco is in its own lane. A very special lane at that !! Absolutely love Zydeco !!

Music is music. I don't care about the skin color. Just play that funky music make me laugh and dance 🩰. I'm so happy with the music on. 70 yrs young.

Fantastic performance. LOVED it!
Louisiana do entertain us
Wow. This is way more country than the big charting slick and pop tracks that are sung over with a stereotypical twang and passed off as C&W. More fiddles and banjos please with a little pedal steel guitar now and then.
Loved her since the Carolina Chocolate Drops days, she is phenomenal. And never a bad performance

kudos to kimmel for 'getting it'
solid gold⚡️
Niwel tsumbu>>
Wow!
Is she playing a fretless nylon string banjo?
Copy of an 1853 minstrel banjo. Fretless. Nylgut strings.
Yo, she RIPPED that 'jo.
@@ibassnote Thanks. I'd never seen one before. Love discovering new instruments.
❤so excited for this im late ⏰ haha
Thanks
Y'all who think white people started Country need Real education in Country music!! 🗣💯
Here we go...
@@RidgeRunner-lz5ko, Here We go with ACTUAL FACTS!! 🗣💯
PBS had an excellent documentary on the origins of country music and AAs were definitely well represented.
@@Shea3224Let’s make everything about race instead of just appreciating a talented artist. So unfair to her.
@@RidgeRunner-lz5ko
Actually Rhiannon is very vocal about AA origins in Country music. It was one of the things that inspired her with the banjo. She talks about race. Because blacks were shut out of country recognition. Y'all are the ones who are the racial gatekeepers but don't like being called out on it.
Wait there's a real person named Riannon? 🤔 I thought it was just from that song.
interesting voice she has 🤔🙏 bless her
Yes
❤
Hiiiiiiiiiiiii ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤ beautiful song 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Corn bread and butter beans 😊
They're all like 'WTF'? Beyonce?
Luv her. But her Italian man may be wondering who this Louisiana man is.
This song has been punched up quite a bit. Great band.
Blame our country for not putting this trump guy in Jail🎉
This has nothing to do with that Trump guy...This is about MUSIC!😂
Yuck
Who cares? Enough with the race obsession.
