Killing it as usual. Charles is probably one of the most talented hardest working bass players alive.
This particularly shows that. It might be my favorite performance of his apart from a couple of his originals.
I second this
Yoooo rapping brooooo
Absolutely
@@silentiumsinister8786 I third this
I simultaneously want to practice so much, and never pick up my bass again
Pretty much
Truth.
Nice
Right !?!?!! Lol
Conflicted
How is this even possible? Just unbelievable!
Bro how did this comment not explode yet?
@@unanimous4367 'meh'
Actually, it’s not possible. He is obviously an AI powered android.
Dude i don't even play bass. I play guitar. (Nowhere near as well as you play bass) I am so addicted to your videos. It's literally the most mind blowing musical prowess I've seen in a long time. Bass gets a bad rap (if you've ever been in a rock band you know that) the fact that you chose bass and play it like a fkn virtuoso is such a nice breath of fresh air. Way to be a true musician and thank you so much for blowing my mind.
Dude is a legend
Very well put, sir
He plays guitar very well too
and piano@@WildMorgan
Everyone hates the bass player
This... is the first time in my life I see someone rapping... with a bass. And it's an absolute masterpiece. I'm not even a big fan of hip hop music, but it's still an absolute masterpiece. Congratulations.
its shame theres not many decent bass covers for eminem unless ive just not come across any yet
We love Charles doing hardest song in the world as a series it’s always a banger
I love that there is still obvious deep respect for the original musicians even when their songs may not be the most musically…challenging? This series seems to seek to elevate the source material, not denigrate it. Awesome as always!
Also , ........eminem sux
@@teep3049 at least I can understand what he says
@@teep3049 you provided very much to this conversation thank you for sending data over the internet to view your opinion
@@teep3049 you make a compelling argument, but here’s a counterpoint….. literally every rapper alive says he’s the greatest of all time. So I bet you’re wrong.
@@Giveme1goodreasonare you seriously claiming every rapper alive says that? You don't expect anyone to believe that do you? I'll give you Eminem's had some catchy tunes, but greatest of all time? I can't keep a straight face reading your comment. And for that, I'm grateful you wrote it
Man, I am SO impressed by your skills and your dedication. Just when I'm thinking "he can't possibly get any better", you blow my mind with an even more impressive performance. WELL. DONE.
That’s a lot of simping bro.

Να ένα σχόλιο που δεν το περίμενα! Δύο αγαπημένα μου κανάλια σε ένα. Μπράβο Charles, μπράβο Fred!
Ξέρεις να αναγνωρίζεις την αξία όταν την βλέπεις μάγκα μου
I think a good way of putting it is: You are not "just" a really skilled bassist, but a really talented and skilled musician in general.
You compose and arrange awesome music, as well as perform it!
Im always impressed, thanks for the music!
This is absolutely killer man. The slapocalypse, the switch up into Dear Stan, super fresh. Love the intracies, the sonics, the transitions. You earned a subscriber after putting the bass all up in my face.
Can we take a minute to be impressed by Charles’ vibrato? It’s like the least flashy technique but takes so much practice to get it 100% right and this mans got it 🔥
I'd say my hero Jack Bruce would agree.
Amazing!!! 🔥🔥🔥
The actual bass line of this song is actually one note 😂
I had to get pretty creative 🤣
@@CharlesBerthoud i like how there is a bass for the bass
@@CharlesBerthoud your creativity doesn't really have a limit.
@@guichaky3918 bassception
Ha, yeah, there are 3-4 songs I've played in a cover or variety band that were one note as well, all riding the low E (one detuned to a D). I was lucky enough to be needed on keyboard for most of them and set that on a tape loop. I probably at one time could've played this (his cover version) as well. I was definitely faster at slap bass, not sure about finger tapping. He'd slaughter me today on bass (while once primary, it is now behind cello, piano and guitar).
Holy shit, I can't believe you did that! That's insane! And I think it's the best cover of this "hardest solo" series
I love how Charles keeps musicality and respect for the artist first, and memes last. I feel his content will age the best due to this.
2:43 - One of the most epic switches ever
Jesus Christ dude! As a MASSIVE EMINEM fan and a bassist, I am beyond impressed. That was some of the sickest shit I've ever seen. Hats off to ya man, well done! -
No it’s not Jesus Christ it’s just Charles. Thought that might of been made simple to you. Charles plays bass, Jesus paid the price for sins, is the saviour of his chosen few, can turn water into wine and walk on water. Please do not make that mistake again. Also if you say Jesus doesn’t exist then why are you using his name in vain? You prove it right there.
Figure of speech Thumper calm down and go thump elsewhere this the free world
@@Innertorium jesus christ relax
@@robertbignar9129😂😂😂
@@Innertorium You seemingly have never heard of something called, an EXPRESSION.
This one hit really different. Felt like an epic tribute instead of a rather memey cover. I am really amazed.
Note: I am not dissing previous covers, I like those too.
It's my humble opinion that you are the best bass player alive today although that's really splitting hairs as there are so many good players. However, I believe you are the best because you are insanely technical in every area AND you stuff still sounds like music. You're a pleasure to watch EVERY TIME!!! Many thanks for letting us live vicariously through your hard work and talent.
Mate, welcome to the Greatest Bass Players of all time Club. From…a drummer. Extraordinary. Can’t stop, won’t stop…push on….push forward…realize your potential and change the World.
I'm ... I'm ...speechless!!
Each production is another step into a world that I as a 'living room bassist' born in the 50's, never dreamed possible.
Thank you.
Incredible playing, as always!
I have the EXACT same Mario hat at 4:45, my sister got it for me 😂
The same hat!!!! OMG NO WAY!!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!! JUST WOW!!!!!!
second
it's just a hat
You cant have the EXACT same because the hat's hanging in charles room :P
@@Fekron dont be a smartass dude you know what he meant...
The amount of technique required to actually pull that off in a way that honoured the original is amazing. You may just have become my favourite bassist
The quality of the content is just unbelievable, and the Dido part. Respect! Also I want to thank Davie504 for giving you a good kickstart so that we can enjoy your contents.
Yep, I came here from Davie too
I don't think Dido is on lose yourself though🤣

@@breakfaith3031 it really doesn't...
Thanks!
Charles plays some of the most epic bass music ever..... His studio? A repurposed bedroom........ proving that practice and commitment are more important than gear and equipment.....
I love watching you make the bass sing like another instrument at times. You take it to the whole new level of expression you give this instrument another meaning and voice. It's really extraordinary to observe this level of excellence unfold into reality. I have no idea how you do what you do but keep doing it. Your gift is out of this world and I sincerely appreciate it👏👏👏.
Most people would kill to play one of Charles’ bass extravaganzas in a lifetime. He is churning them out weekly. Amazed and awed.
Dang, Charles! I lost myself by the time you started dropping bars.
Amazing as always! 😎👍🏻
Thanks!
Just wow. I literally got goosebumps at 2:43 ... amazing video as always
I've been spending a while trying to figure out why you're not just playing a guitar. I realize that you just can't hammer the guitar this way. You're amazing! The work you must put in is phenomenal.
Yes Charles! Excellent, could you someday do a slow mo or breakdown of how you tap the arpeggios?
hmmmm, it appear that his tapping is too powerful even for TH-cam 0.25 slow

Holy shit feel quite honored that ya boi Charles liked the Taptical nuke joke enough to use it in a video lol
Great work as always man 👍🏻
It was too funny to not include at some point 🤣
Taptical nuke incoming!
Killing it as always man. All seriousness, You’re quickly becoming a legend in the game. Bassists will be looking up to you like they look up to the greats like Stanley, Wooten, Miller, etc. keep grinding man. You’re inspiring people every day to keep pushing.
When I began listening to you a few years ago I was pissed knowing I’d never be as good as you. Now I’m just glad I got in early to enjoy the talent of a man who is probably the best bass player alive.
2:15 Bro messed up and played it off like it was meant to happen. Legend as usual
For some reason when you transitioned to Stan, I literally got a chill - another extraordinary performance! And congratulations on the studio & thank you for sharing with us Charles.
Let’s just say… there is nothing to say. Speechless. One thing is playing well… another thing is arranging a good song.
True words, he composes as a virtuoso as well.
WAOUH, WAOUH; WAOUH!!! Je crois à la réincarnation! Cet homme à déjà joué de la musique dans une autre vie!!😃Merci, je passe un super moment chaque fois que je visionne cette vidéo.🤩
I love the way you turn bass guitar into an instrument that really carries a melody through the entire song. I think you spoke about that in one of your earlier videos, it is just so cool
to think of bass guitar that way. Like a cello in classical music maybe?
Anyways, I’m sure you know what I mean !!
And the shredding of course, that is just amazing!
Shredding without a cool melody is not real fun to listen to, but this is just on an entirely different level, mind blowing.
That brief "Stan" cover made me cry. Thank you for this.
Everybody gangster til the bassist starts shredding rap lyrics
This is one of the best things I have ever heard. Every part was epic, but that "Stan" part sounded so good. You should make a heavy metal tribute of "Stan"
Best you’ve done IMO
Absolutely crushed it on every level 👌
This was disgusting. Literally the greatest thing I've ever heard on a bass. Followed you on everything. Well done.
You've gotten me to listen to songs and types of music I've never liked which speaks to how good these videos are.
Bro i had goosebumps through the whole video. What a banger
Okay, you're hired.
4:18 - definite proof that Charles IS actually Davie503 :D That blue Schecter Banshee bass that somehow we never see in other videos ;-)
Yup!

Davie who? My math must be getting musty
I have heard people make basses sing before, but this is the first time I have heard someone make a bass rap.
ironically enough you're a pretty good example of "you can do anything you set your mind to, man"
Bro, you gotta do something shitty. Otherwise, what do we even say in the comments other than the generic "Amazing!" "Crushed it" We love you!"! lol 😉
He could do your mum...that would be pretty shitty.
Bro please make this an official cover!!🔥🔥🔥
Somehow they keep getting better. This one is soooo good!!!!
top five slappers Eminem is afraid to tap
Charles youre Jaco Victor and Stanely rolled into one...always amazing. Thanks for sharing your talents with the world.
Wow, whoever Eminem is, you know you've made it when Charles Berthoud makes a cover off of you!
When you lose yourself so hard, you start stanning yourself, but it's not so bad. It's not so bad.
You lose a lot of kilos and become a real slim shady
You kind of made it the most impossible song in the world. Thank you Sir.
That laugh face you put in the videos when you slide the string over the fret cracks me up EVERY DAMN TIME! lol
Must have sold your soul twice for talent like that, another impressive video that makes the rest of us realize how far we have to go. Well done...again.
Yo loving all the great content man. Keep up the grind 👊
Vocé show, mostro seus vídeos a todos que conheço, digo que é "o cara que toca mais que todos" ! Sua técnica e criatividade sao incríveis.
This cover of mom's spaghetti is pretty sick dawg
Not only was this insane and now my favourite version of this song…but the captions were hilarious too 😂
“ Transcending ALL Bass & Time.”
If you keep this pace up,… you’ll be levitating upon command😂
You have to arrange all these into a playlist!
"The hardest playlist in the world"
Also, please do "Everlong" by Foo Fighters
как всегда лучший! удивительный бас!

1:11 Missed opportunity for caption: SLAP BACK TO BASSALITY
This actually slaps, literally. Very impressive work and great job! I can tell what song it is despite your take on it
the playing was phenomenal, the Dido got a laugh, the section names earned a like and sub. good job!
You're the reason Davie504 is a meme channel now.
Best bass channel on YT
How dare you!! You must be STOPPED! SLAPS BASS SLAP! 👋 Lol.
1:03
am i correct in seeing this as an up thumb followed by double pluck? I know he uses this sound alot and I want to use it too; this is the most clear and isolated ive seen the technique.
Triple. It takes a few to get it smooth. It's gotta be in your practice at least twice a week for a while after you get it if you want to keep it.
Just listened "Lose Yourself" five minutes earlier...
Charles can read your mind! :0
nobody else can get a bass to sound like synth overlay, cymbals and drums like that. amazing
Literally every one of these is so good - your playing reminds me of the first time I heard “Portrait of Tracy”, and both times I thought, “that’s a bass? Like, just a bass?”
Such excellent grooves here, loved the Stan moment as well. Epic. One question - what the hell is that move Charles is doing; he started in part 2 but part 4 (bass yourself) is the best example - he’s doing like a double thumb plus a finger snap, it almost seems like a roll of some kind - flaminco style-esque. Anyone know what that is? Very cool stuff. Thanks for doing it :)
This brings peace to the soul yet i want to cause chaos now. 😎
This man is unreal. Cheers
One of your best so far. Simple songs with a great hook/groove have so much potential as is evident here. My 1 yr old daughter loves watching you play.
That Marathon medal is a humble brag, as if that achievement even holds a candle to being one of the best bassists in the world!
What in the motherfffffff… not sure how I’m just seeing this. Just pure genius insanity. I’m glad to be alive to witness this talent!
It's 1 A.M in Brazil, here I am after watching you play Barbie Girl on Nando Moura's channel, another great Brazilian musician just like you, so I've been touring on your channel and I will definetely won't sleep watching more of them! All your fault! Lol... You just a got a new subscriber! Thank you, Nando Moura for this! :)
Dude. You’re absolutely out of this world amazing. Wow. Kudos. Thank you for sharing your talent for all to enjoy.
As someone lucky enough to have heard the original at Joe Louis Arena back in the day, I got to say I'm beyond impressed. Someone needs to get this in Marshall Mathers' hands.
Awesome! Really love the verse of Thank You tossed into the middle.
There are bass players and there is Charles Berthoud. You could of chose the road and the band thing but it is all so stressful. Being in an environment where you are comfortable will always bring out the best in you.
Wow !!! This was completely insane !!!! You are overskilled with à Bass !!!
Finally, my love of 2000s rap collides with ridiculous viruoso technichality
What a time to be alive
its amazing to see someone be able to put into soundwaves what we hear in our heads
Man, title should be, "If Eminem is the hardest bassist in the world"
Fire vid as usual. Always, vid after vid, never fails to make my head bang!
That Dido break in the middle referencing the Eminem/Dido performance was friggin’ hilarious
We need a full version of those, this sounds insane I love it.
Looking back at this, probably one of your best covers
The words “arpeggiated bass” never needed to be put together before this man began to play
I can't believe you didn't say "would you tap-ture it?" during the intro. You're leaving money on the table here, man!
Slapocalypse is basically a fixture of your clips by now, but I liked the taptical nuke even more. You're certainly a master taptician.
Love this series! This is one of the most impressive yet. slapocalypse was insane! and the phrasing on the bluesy part definitely put a smile on my face
just wanna say I really enjoy listening to you play, im super addicted to the sound of your bass. keep on working king
bruh those split taps at the end with such accuracy and repetition if this wasn't shopped and edited in any way then congratz sir that was superb
Watching you play bass is like watching someone play a video game with the cheat codes turned on.
👏🏻 👏🏻
