THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR THIS, BEEN TRYNA FIND OUT MORE ABOUT MY YORUBA HERITAGE

Gracias Hermano por este video tan importante de nuestros hermanos nigeriano

ASE-O!!! This is wonderful!! So glad to hear these rhythms played by these fine drummers!! And as you hear, the rhythm is much faster when played with a stick and hand rather than 2 hands.

Ase O! Blessed it the Orisha!

@ASRNTRGB Agidigbo, Bembe, Sakara, Gbedu, these are drums that seem to be what you want. You will get them in Ibadan or Oyo towns.

E ku ori re o! E bere Ile Iyaloja's lErin-Osun o. E joo, e ba mi ki won daadaa!

Does a "Duro Ladipo" really need to search far before finding performers? Mo sebi oro ile naa ni, abi kin' mo ti wi na? May Duro Ladipo's soul rest in peace!

E se o, adupe lowo yin eyin omo Oduduwa.

This is amazing! Before my African Drumming class, I couldn't hear the different parts. There's a conversation going on.

Ko to pe o! Ase o!

Sorry to have taken so long. I have to find time in between semesters and writing projects!

Yoruba spirit, also translated as god/goddess.

fantastic! thanks for sharing!

Overwatch lead me here. Their new character, Orisa uses the bata drum ingame. Interesting to see how its used in real life!

does anyone know any drum and bass from nigeria? I swear I have had the strong need to play music as a child, and have always found my way back to the roots...! Peace

yes u finally have new videos!

Bata played w/ sticks? WOW, I've never seen this!

This video was made in 2008 and has Orisa in the title. But overwatch was made in 2016!

Orisa is a god right?

where are these gentlemen from?
