Bro why did this make me laugh so hard 🤣 coming from years of hearing people clap off beat it is finally nice to hear a whole room who has decent temp lmao.
His career is the kind that EVERY drummer should want. Traveling all the time, seeing millions of fans all over the world, playing for 1 of the biggest stars in the world, and still humble enough to not it all taken away from him. He gets calls from companies, major endorsements, and he's just enjoying the fruits of his labor while seeing this entire planet while along for the ride. THIS is what we strive for. Luckily, I live the same. Stay focused guys! You can DO this!! - Chris Bonneau
What a wonderful person Tony Royster is. My grandson is 4 and have been looking at your videos since he is one. He imitates your every move. Thanks for the inspiration. You are very inspiring.
This is the third Tony Royster video I've watched this morning, beginning with him at 12. Man, how that electronic kit ABSOLUTELY KILLS any sense of excitement - HATE it! Acoustic drums will NEVER be replaced.
Beyond every word or musical expression...inspiration has connected my motivation with the energy I am grateful to see in you and your creation Tony. Life is truly beautiful =D!!!
Amazing, the dude is an absolutely phenomenal drummer and seems like truly a nice, humble guy. Been keeping my eye on him since he was on star search or whatever at the age of 12 (?), truly inspiring.
Wait so he was a drummer for a pop/rap artist? I don't listen to Jay Z but does he drum like this in the songs? cuz if not then he needs to do more of this.
+Snail Man nah bro when it comes to touring drummers you kind of need to stay on the down low. Let the artist get all the attention, get your check and go XD sad but true
I've ben watchin dis cat 4 a min and he amaze me evry time I c a clip of him playin......Big ups 2 Tony Royster Jr.....@ musiqman871 yur bro did his thang wit dat track.....
That's why he makes clear he's there for fun (he learned on wood and steel drums) and he's showing a path to how you can be creative with tools available.
Tony Royster is the man. I used to try and hate him too, but when he talks he sounds so humble, and his skills are un matched. I wish he traveled around the U.S. and gave lessons...that would be awesome!
Tony royston jr is One of the best drummers in america and I respect him becouse he is talanted and he deserves the ratings that he gets but honestly they are amazingly out of the World drummers but are not reconized all over the World and wish they can have that oppotunity to be where Tony is. it upsetting for real I just hope that Tony appreciates where he is today.
Why do you say that? Why would an "average musician" have trouble recognizing great playing? Personally, I think that many musicians would enjoy this and think that it's great while others might think that it's just someone moving their hands really fast. You know, just like normal people might.
Honestly, I feel like Tony might not even understand what he's playing sometimes. I don't mean that he isn't able to, but as a drummer, I often do things just out of "feel" or instinct and when I think about them after (or listen to them) I say to myself, "wow, what did I do there?". As for context, I think that the electronic drums in this video provide great musical context with their samples and non-traditional drum sounds. Which is to say, non-musicians or even non-drummers can hear how his drumming makes sense as part of a larger whole of a track/song/performance.
LenMan619 I had a (english comp) professor once who told me how she loved math and it was a real easy class for her to breeze through, but english classes were always a struggle for her. Naturally I asked if math was her favorite subject why did she not teach it? Her reply was that she never really "understood" how to learn math (it all came naturally to her) whereas all the struggling that she had to endure in english classes left her with a better understanding of how to learn (and thus teach) that subject. I think that the same can be said of many prodigies or other naturally talented persons: when asked how they can do such amazing things, they might not know how it happens. I don't think that's true of everyone, but I do believe that it's pretty common.
Hearing a crowd of drummers clap is pretty sweet.

This guy is great! Just love what he does. Remember his performance when he was around 12 years old. Also here on CZcams.
His 12yo performance is one of the most jaw dropping things i ever saw in any musical domain ;-)

Tony Royster Jr. Is probably going to be the best drummer ever.
He already is
as soon as my 2 yr old sat here watching you he went and ran straight to his drums. He drums on any and everything he can find.
tony, a kid with a happy childhood, who shows a positive outlook in life, God bless you!
3:35 just love the crazy speed and intensity and then suddenly back to soft and groovy
He was amazing when he was 11 years old, now he's just simply legendary
Always a great pleasure to listen to Tony Royster Jr. Great source of inspiration.
I'm a professional drummer my self, I think Tony Royster is outrageous wit his playing abilities !!!
Still watching this in 2021💯
So much fun!
Thanks so much for sharing!!!
It's amazing. You get a crowd full of drummers and they can finally hold a steady tempo while clapping
I knew he was a great drummer but wow he is incredible, the timing, groove, everything is on point!
Incredible drummer - quite inspiring. I would have loved to have heard Tony's performance on acoustic drums.
so awesome to see and hear this at the same time. awesomeness!!!

Totally Amazing as expected !!!!
He is such a humble man, he knows that he is

Funny to see people complain about things they can't do.
This is my signature comment in all videos of this kind
At around min 19:00 when he starts the 67234 he takes things to whole another level, my lord can this guy keep a beat. This guy is a legend WOW
Man Tony's the truth! Any kind of music and he's always on point!!
Yeah man that was awesome, you are the best man
Living legend for sure. Would be an honor to just sit and take notes from this guy. Much respect.

I knew it was over when you turned that hat back ! Love it ....Thanks Tony .
I love Tony! Huge inspiration to my playing.
Once he put his hat backwards, that wasn't Tony......that was Dr. Royster, his alter ego 😂
in one word, Amazing ! thumbs up man
You inspire me man! One hell of a drummer.
never ceases to amaze
This was thoroughly enjoyable to watch. :D
Never seen or heard of this drummer before but WOW first time watching him he is amazing
He is pretty big time now. He plays for jay z or at least used to
Wait so he was a drummer for a pop/rap artist? I don't listen to Jay Z but does he drum like this in the songs? cuz if not then he needs to do more of this.
+Snail Man nah bro when it comes to touring drummers you kind of need to stay on the down low. Let the artist get all the attention, get your check and go XD sad but true
Check out any of his videos on an acoustic kit. This Roland's don't do him any justice
this guy has been holdin' it down since he was real young . good for him .
He sounded very humble and kind in his introduction. He sure seems appreciative!
Love this kid - both technical and musical; may be the best GC drumoff winner ever.
This guy's rhythmic vocabulary is astounding. I just want to go spend all of my time behind a drum set from now until the end of time because of this
I've ben watchin dis cat 4 a min and he amaze me evry time I c a clip of him playin......Big ups 2 Tony Royster Jr.....@ musiqman871 yur bro did his thang wit dat track.....

This guy is unbelievable!
I can see how average musicians would struggle to see this as talent. Most people think he can just move his hands really fast.
Why do you say that? Why would an "average musician" have trouble recognizing great playing?
Personally, I think that many musicians would enjoy this and think that it's great while others might think that it's just someone moving their hands really fast. You know, just like normal people might.
My point was that even musicians, to a certain extent, don't have the musical context to understand the complexity here.
Honestly, I feel like Tony might not even understand what he's playing sometimes. I don't mean that he isn't able to, but as a drummer, I often do things just out of "feel" or instinct and when I think about them after (or listen to them) I say to myself, "wow, what did I do there?".

fullautomatic555 Haha John Petrucci Syndrome- any video where he tries to explain what he's doing leaves me in fits of laughter haha
Roland gives TD 30KV V Drums to Mr. Royster to "test drive", great demo!
so cool!
That's why I better like to combine both, nothing better that the best of both worlds
He's so high right here. Gotta love it!
