RODNEYJONES JR 1st performance from the Bass Clinic... 

I am an 61 years female, Rodney is the best bass player in this generation of music that I've heard. Especially on Smokie Norful dvd, Bless the Lord. I listen just to hear Rodney play. Off the Chain!!

I've watched this young play since he was 14 and he is THE TRUTH!! CHICAGO STAND UP!! Just plain ANOINTED BY GOD!!

great tone. never heard anyone play that close to Marcus. great stuff Mr. Jones

AIN'T NOTHING LIKE REAL MUSICIANS, BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is some spectacular playing and tone. He's a bad mofo on bass. The entire band rocked it.

Just OUTSTANDING, I'm so motivated to get back start playing again thank you Rodney

My favorite and I'm 70 yrs old the man is bad!!!

The drummers pocket is so bad, it's like his creating a pocket while in the pocket!!!! AWESOME!!!!!

Way to go Cousin, you're an awesome musician, it runs in the Family

I played sax on this hit... Yeah there's a track, but there's no bass on it. He recorded the track at his studio to fill out the horn lines and add some synth color in the mid section. Bass is all Rodney, trust me. He's that badass.

Nice. Recorded so well and all did just a great justice to the tune. Do more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Marcus can’t hear him if he’s dead, respect the living while they live. Great job bro. He will love it

The pocket is crazy! And the ears on the horn players are superb! Love to hear the bass lead.

This was awesome. The guy's too much soul. No limits! Thanks for this vid

Rodney Jones Jr. is a Bad Man! Love it, Do yo thang man! Bass Player myself....Austin Tx.

Love it. You killed it on the Bass and the music all around was amazing.

No the drummer could not have gone harder. The drummer was doing exactly what he was supposed to do, which was stay in the pocket and accompany the bass player. That's how you get called back for a gig

Love it!

I went past this vid several times before I finally watched it ..ohh so glad I did. this cat is STANK FACE FUNKY, I could hardly stay still in my seat watching this. Great tone as well ,and of course the drummer was holding a sweet pocket the whole time . I will be looking for more great music from sir RODNEY and company.

Amazing Talent and for the Nay Sayers were all standing on the shoulders of Someone Else's Talent and Music Evolution..

I love this

i listen to this all the time. man Rodney's a boss.

Great bass playing, great musicians and a great job reinventing the Marcus Miller wheel!

I failed to mention that the tone of his bass is bangin as well. Great sound and great chops.

Outstanding family!!!! Miller would be proud.. way to represent.

WOW!!! Awesome!!

A whole lot of funk go'in on. Awesome playing, nice jam and mix.

Man would you handle yo business!. .. loved it young Rodney...from the moment I met you at NAMM I knew you was going to be something special!

Absolutely amazing.Now I think I’ll go and use my bass for firewood.

I am 58 years young and i agree with you totally, the work he has done with smokie norful is where i first took notice and even though we don't each other personally, i am very proud of this man and his family. It's obvious there is a strong anointing on the Jones' to the point that when i see a project old or new where Rodney played bass i automatically buy it. On this particular video, Marcus Miller should be very proud of him as well!

Fabulous!!

Awesome. Loved this! :)

Great playing Rodney!!!

Dude you killin!!!!!

What an insane speed and clean technique!

Sound on that bass is fire 🔥

Groove, on my Brother sounding Beautiful.

I rather listen to this version than the original there so much groove and make me want to dance .

So groovy man ,I Have seen it many times .

Waoooo even on my phone it sounds like hell nice track thank you Rodney

YOU ARE GLUED TIGHT....SO COOL. AWFUL DANGEROUS AWESOME JAMMING !!!! SCANDALOUS. BADDASS BASSIST !!!!!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOA! If I closed my eyes i'da thought it was the 'hatted one' himself. Matter of fact, I did!!! Im a serious MM fan and his tone jumps out @ me ANYWHERE. Rodney's tone..whew! I'll just say neck and neck!!! I'l surely make this one of my TOP favorites. The entire band was KILLER!

AGREED!! I keep looking to see if this is a recording that they are just playing to. The freaking band is TIGHT!!!!

Wow!! This homie has been doing his shedding!!!

Dude is on fye on the bass!..

AWSOME THUMPER/SLAPPER/ Larry Graham roots

Whoa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH YEA!!! Let me do that!!

Awesome

I don't know why I'm just watching this vid. Rodney Jr. is a beast all on his own. I'm laughing at the "Marcus Miller wannabe" comment. That sounded like a failed attempt to hate on Rodney Jr. It's actually a compliment to compare him to Marcus Miller. All the great musicians that I know on any instrument have studied and been mentored by a great one before them. I've known Rodney Jr. since he was in pull-ups. and I'm proud of him! He's one of the best out there, and the best Rodney Jones Jr.!!!

Lalah Vocal sample! Love it. :)

Bruce Lee 🔥🔥🔥 Awsome man!!!!!

The drummer is tight!!!!

SWEET!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Real Marcus inspiration ! same sound too

обалденный саунд!!!

Him being your nephew doesn't negate the fact that it is either a track or an over dub. you can hear & see it if you pay attention. I'm not saying that Lil Rodney didn't play every lick, cause I know he is one of the baddest cats out there. Man, I have been enjoying this brothas playing for yrs. There is even the humming towards the end that the original song has.

BADASS!!!!

Man, Guitar Centers really do look exactly the same!

Watch Out Marcus!!! ❤

I'm certain MM is chuckling to himself. Very nice job sir

DAMN, that was FUNK!!

Do your thang Marcus!

Only a Fender Bass can sound this good!

Demais!!!!!!!!

This sounds amazingly like the original track

Locked !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i was there it was all him. play boy

You are right The DRUMMER was staying in the pocket hanging with the BASS player. I love this MUSIC!!!!!!!!

Very hip jam my brother! The band is tight, the groove is there, you & the drummer are totally in the pocket. Great job. Next video, do something that tells us who YOU are. We all know Marcus, but the world needs to hear who Rodney Jones Jr is. Stay cool bruh

Wow I saw " A Marcus Miller" bass run. This is awesome .

PEEEEEEEEEU!🤩. This is funkee!

Nice sounding bass

MADDEST GROOVE
