One of the best quotes I’ve heard in a while “Adapt to your generation but don’t forget your culture”
Wish more cultures would do this. European culture is being snuffed out by the media.
Learn other’s culture but never forget your root.
Bryn Bro it's Adapt to your, not Adopt......but agree good quote.
It touched my lungs...
@@BlackBerry-og2fs autocorrect mistake, thx
Firstly, let's save the most important channel in asia, Asian Boss....
Yes that's important
Agreed.
If you can’t donate please tell people to subscribe
Agreed
yes but how can I do so
Even though he plays a bad guy in a lot of films.. the reality is, he’s a true gentleman
Indeed, in real life he is an English teacher.
😂
Haha nice

TikTok silat moves intensifies hahahaha
"Adapt to your generation, but don't forget your culture." That is an all-time quote.
Yes. I think it's especially important in these times.
agree
Your words same as japanese emperor,meiji...said : you can learn from another people...but dont forget who you are
the japanesse did this , they still honour their old tradition
I just wrote it down before seeing this comment, I absolutely agree
For those who doesnt speak Indonesian.. this person speaks in a very polite Indonesian language..
He does, with a lil bit Sundanese accent.
Nope.. He just speaks standart bahasa.
sounds very much like Bahasa Malaysia . Same as when indonesian sings songs. It doesnt sound like their language . Sounds more Malaysian
@@albertjai9174 Well Malaysian and Indonesian languages are closely related. So, they share majority of vocabularies plus similar grammar pattern.
@albertjai lol you don't have ears
I used to practice Pencak Silat (Tapak Suci) when I was young. Unfortunately my Pelatih moved out from Amsterdam. Maybe in the near future I will pick it up. Greetings from the Netherlands!
There is a pentkat-silat martial artist born in the Netherlands but raised in Hollywood...also he was bodybuilder too and had long-blonde haired but now I can´t remember his name. Always in his movies he worked as a "bad guy". Greetings from Argentina.
@@walterretlaw4051 Thnx for noticing. Greettings back!
Groetjes
"Adapt to your generation, but don't forget your culture" ... I like that, well said.
True
I'm not sure if it comes across in the English translation, but in Indonesian language, his choice of words and way of speaking are very humble despite his achievement. It's very calming yet inspiring to hear him explaining about Pencak Silat and his experience getting involved in blockbuster movies.
Yes really down to earth. He is from Garut west Java so his accent was nyunda pisan😊
Yeah he is so down to earth
Even as a foreigner, I can understand that he has a very big heart along with Iko and Yayan. They're all so loving and humble.
I don’t understand indonesian, but his voice is so calming and he seems down to earth
Humble not like certain Indonesian who likes to claim everything originated from Indonesia, the subtitle above is an example, mr cecep claim silat originated from nusantara (Indonesia, Malaysia, brunei).
Yo this is the same guy that plays the bad guy in The Raid! Glad he’s having some attention
Such a great movie as well
*Raid 2
He also become popular meme in indonesia
Love that film
He's a beast. I loved that movie.
3:14 noticed how he said Nusantara instead. Huge respect to him, long live 🇮🇩❤🇧🇳❤🇲🇾❤🇸🇬 ❤🇵🇬❤🇵🇭❤🇹🇱
The raid gives them a big break. Even here in philippines many filipino admire it. The stunt is brutal and superb. Happy to see south east asian actor been recognized in hollywood.
This man actually isn't as scary as how he looks in movies.
did you know that his original job (aside from being a martial teacher) was actually a english middle school teacher?
@@lornilula4213 Wow, that's actually really cool.
He's skills are
Not scary at all. His a typical Sundanese guy you'll see in Bandung's streets.
I always thought that Chiyaki Kuriyama (Chain with a ball girl from Kill Bill) and Devon Aoki (Miho from Sin City) are someone you’d want to love and protect. The whole stereotype about Asian martial abilities is built on the fact that we are small but stronger than body builder looking people .
I love how scary he seems in his movies, but seems like a genuinely lovely, humble man in real life.
he's still scary to me!
That’s quite often the way: the most imposing villains are often played by the kindest souls in the business. Just a shame that sometimes unfortunately you get the opposite: kind-hearted heroes/heroines played by people who in real life have a penchant for treating other people (including the likes of supporting cast and crew) like dirt.
@@Texy88 yeah, but thank god Keanu isnt like that, he is a very likeable man, usually he is the most favourite out of the cast because he always buys lunch for everyone on the set haha
You will be suprised if you know he is also a school teacher. Imagine being his students.
When he has the Karambit knife and is talking about how good it is because it's a concealable weapon.... 'safe', 'can hide it in your hand' . Very scary right there.
I clicked on this expecting a John Wick focused look at Rahman, but I found myself genuinely touched at how you guys got a look into his life and really let him speak.
It's been with a heartfelt gratitude I wanna say thank you for your kind words.
Pernah baca komen orang luar waktu nonton video turnamen silat. " How can they keep smiling when they fight. I think they enjoy the fight ". Dan salah satu komen yang bikin gw ketawa " Be carefull dude, we Asian can smile and kill at the same time "
Wkwkkwk seperti macan yang sedang mengintai mangsanya ya
@@indriemoureen5384 macan mah gak senyum neng 😂😂.
As a stuntman I got to attend one of his training classes much respect to him very humble guy. True honor
Yu are lucky
Very lucky
@Fred Forbes in rockville maryland
Good stuff
Wkwkwkwkw
fun fact. he is actually one of the very few people that actually fights wicks, but did not get killed
The director and keanu himself are fans of both the raid movie actors, so he didn't kill them in parabellum
even john wick (not keanu) give respect for them after they fight
Because they fight with respect and honour, that's the manliest thing💪
Coz KANG NUNU loves them soo much
@@bigtea857 Kang Nunu vs Kang Cecep 😄
3:10 I really like it when he said of silat as being the heritage of Nusantara (the region encompassing the countries in most of Maritime Southeast Asia). It shows how humble he is in recognizing the shared legacy of silat in the region. The subtitle somehow translated it as Indonesia though. As a fellow silat practitioner in Malaysia, it pleases me that the martial arts of my people are getting recognized globally, though I wish the movie producers in Malaysia would do more to promote our shared culture through movies, instead of just focusing on stale but profitable movie themes.
let's keep this beautiful thing alive, my malaysian brothers and sisters! One Nusantara!
Yes, as an Indonesian, I would say that Silat is belong to nusantara. Because each place and country have different style.
dont ever forget! if Malaysia, Indonesia & Brunei go to war with each other, we Malay are the losers, other races will be the master of our country!
serumpun yg munafik
I understand what you mean, about underlining malaysia, but in fact the raid series just got banned in malaysia, at the same time also want to be recognized, it is funny
His son came across as humble and really admired his dad and his achievements. Love that wholesomeness
Fun Fact. He is also an English Teacher at Elementary School in Indonesia.. Imagine having a teacher as cool as cecep.. 😆😆 *Edited : not in Elementary School, but middle school.
Wait seriously? Gosh he's so cool!!

I speak Indonesian and I acknowledge that AsianBoss did a really good job translating this. Their translation is on point. On some parts where the dude is stuttering, they don't translate every exact words, but rather the meaning of it (and still on point). Whoever did this deserves a praise!
Yaa, tak salah maklumat yang di sampaikan

It's called interpreting dude. You'll learn this in English Faculty of Letters.

So proud to see Pencak Silat in Hollywood. Love from KL
He was awesome in both Raid movies as well. That’s where I became a fan of him.
9:50 “It’s not about what’s attacking us, but about how we overcome the problem”. Beautiful. Problems are inevitable/normal. Everyone should think about this 💜
that quote is dumb, & so is this channel which is why i’ll be happy to see it gone forever

k liyah aweee look who privated their playlists 👀 are you not embarrassed 😳
I took a seminar with this legend. What people don't know is how STRONG he is. His arm was like steel. He really knows his martial arts. One of the rare cases where someone is WAY better off camera than what you see in the movies. He's the real deal
Cecep vs Tony Jaa, Donnie Yen and Scott Adkins?
@@KINGJAPAN12 I don't know much about the other 3 before they became an actor. But for Cecep, he's a Pencak Silat athlete also teacher for a long time before he became an actor
I took Silat for a few years when I was younger (KunTao not Pencak), and I can tell he's real deal. My instructor (Guro at the time) had very similar structure and veins as this guy. Arms feel like steel poles. When I blocked his strikes it still hurt. When he blocked my strikes it hurt even more. From what I remember, he said if you really want to condition your legs and arms then you grab a pair of arnis sticks (kamagong is best, but fire hardened rattan works, too) and you roll those up and down your forearms, ulna and shins for a few minutes every day. I tried it again a couple years ago and was like, 'Nope! I got too soft for this.' His stretches are very reminiscent of what we did as well.
@@ryanshannon7703 This is the same shin training in Muay Thai, this is called bone conditioning, you literally break your bones and watch it harden over time, the dead bone tissues gets layered up with new ones that strengthens its defense and offense. When I took Muay Thai lessons, we use to train our calf kick on thick wooden poles for 30 minutes, until our leg were sore from all that low and calf kick training on a wooden pole. Then I left, since I found ITF Taekwondo more enjoying, and I wanted to improve on my flexibility, mixing martial arts are actually enjoying and the sparring really gives me a good workout and experience. From this day I still condition my forearms and shin with my arnis.
@@Adim0413 That's excellent that you are still participating in the arts, and more so that you're able to adapt your existing knowledge with a completely different system. My instructor was very open to mixing up your techniques from different arts to apply the best 'solution' to a given encounter. I remember he used to teach me some of the basic animal kung fu styles (primarily tiger due to the style of blocks and how the strikes work well with Silat movements and attack lines) off to the side. When I felt a movement was too unnatural or maybe wasn't as effective as it could he would often tell me, 'think about other movements you can do and what position you want to be in. How do you get there? Once you know what each movement does, you can apply something else however you want! Don't ever feel like you're boxed into a specific movement. If it works, it works.' A few years ago I tried sparring with my friend for the first time ever in boxing (he was doing regular training and I never trained boxing in my life) and the first straight right he threw I instinctively caught it with a hand trap and pulled him in closer to knock him off balance for a counter. I didn't throw the counter because it felt so weird with big @ss boxing gloves on. My friend was struggling to break free and asked what I was doing. I just told him sorry, force of habit. It was at that point I realized boxing *wasn't really* for me. It's fun for cardio though.
He did not fight Keanu Reeves he let him survive
Yeah a part of me feels weird about that… like obviously it’s fake so who cares - but it seems like when he comes to Hollywood it’s just to get his ass beat.. whereas his characters in other things have been legendary.
This guy prolly one full of wisdoms person. Life advices shared in this video. Respect. Very rare to find someone like him nowadays. His son looks like a very well educated full of good manners taught from his surrounding and father. The way a child speaks like that very polite and loved with good educated manners, thats good parenting and surrounded by good people.
Wick didn't kill these guys, they fight with respect and honor
They are the only enemies Wick didn't kill
@@rizurper Yup. Thought that was so cool. I knew who he was from before so I was actually rooting for him lol.
Wick said "sampai jumpa/see you later" after fight them .. sooo .. JW4 maybe ? 😁
Becuz they didn't take advantage to kill wick when he was down. They back off and waited for him to stand up again.
@@divarius8710 true, hes not already dead, in my opinion wick will take him as a partner
This dude seems really calm, chill, and humble, even though he could kick the ass of people half his age 6 ways from Sunday.
So true lmao
best description 😂
@missingpussy He's also a total badass and would make most of those bigger dudes cry like bitches.
@missingpussy Some martial arts are actually effective against much larger opponents (such as Judo or Muay Thai, although this man uses Silat). Bigger body size doesn't always mean better chance at winning.
@missingpussy wait till u face him

Dangerous, yet soft spoken. Courageous, yet humble. Kang Cecep epitomizes how a master should be. The best of all? He's a Sundanese and we Sundanese people are known as mercurial yet dangerous people.

His work with Iko is what makes The Raid movies such an incredible success in showcasing Silat. I love this guy's humility.
His concept of his martial art is so clean. No form of martial art ever teaches offense. It's a defensive art and it is how it should be left. Martial arts is a form of meditation and certainly not offense!

As Indonesian, i love the fact he used the word "Nusantara", instead Indonesia. (Despite "Nusantara" is being translate as "Indonesia" in the subtitle). Pencak Silat has been around before the countries in the region. Pencak Silat is a culture, a legacy. It belongs to the people, especially those who practise them. It doesnt belong to any nations/countries. Big respect for Kang Cecep 🙏🏻🙏🏻
"Adapt to your generation, but don't forget your culture." That is such a nice sentiment. Some people who thought they are way ahead with moden technologies and cultures, felt like old cultures are irrelevant. And it goes both ways. Some who are too conservative felt like modern technologies and cultures are just distractions and are only here to destroy the beauty in the old ones. But the sentiment that this teacher carries just shows how he doesn't critisize one or the other. Rather, he works to preserve the beauty in old traditions and keeps developing with new culture for the sakes of the future. It's truly beautiful
What he said is true. When you are skilled in martial arts you will most likely do whatever is possible to avoid fighting. Those who are great fighters can cause irreparable damage to a regular person.
Realistically speaking, a great fighter is more likely to leave you less harmed than a novice. More people die in drunken brawls than they do in the ring, and the guys in the ring are actively trying to incapacitate other. All it takes is a single punch to knock somebody unconscious, and if they hit their head on the way down, they die. It happens all the time. Many techniques you seen in movies don't work, you can't snap peoples arms or legs with strikes, and you can't instantly kill someone either. To break someone's limbs or seriously injure them (outside of an accident) you have to have intent to do so. Being a good fighter allows you to be confident fighting, because you know you won't hurt somebody. I'm definitely not the best out there, but very fight I've ever experienced where I knew I was better from the get go, so I would simply go for a guillotine (standing or otherwise), or try and take the back for a rear naked choke. These are really effective, and easy to get on people who don't know what they are doing. Basically you have control of their body, and if they keep trying to fight, you simply tighten the choke and let them understand they need to calm down. I don't throw punches, and I'm comfortable facing down most people. You should avoid intentionally fighting, but you shouldn't give in to whatever someone does to avoid it either. You should avoid fighting because you can always get injured, if someone puts their hands you though you need to be aggressive, worrying about the other person is counterproductive if you know how to fight. The aim is always to protect yourself, you do what you have to do so that you are safe. The only time someone gets hurt is if you are pushed to your limit (e.g. one or two people with an intention of causing you serious harm) or if you don't know what you are doing. Sometimes having a reputation as someone not to mess with can stop other incidents down the line.
I have avoided fights because at the moment of truth I looked so confident and self-assured they got scared and backed down and went away. Now that’s true martial arts.
Not to fight to gain your interest is higher martial arts. Its better to make a friend,that fight for you until the end,than having enemies.
@@AveSicarius Not true, a skilled fighter will blow you away in a street fight to teach you a lesson. The reason why we don't see too many deaths in the ring is because BOTH fighters tend to be skilled and prepared to take punishment
@@MarcSmith23 Sound like complete nonsense from your imagination, lol
German Guy here, i have great love for Indonesian People. I visitied Java and Bali back in the days, on of my most memorable travel experiences. The people are so friendly and the culture is so rich.
Wow. This man isn't just teaching a martial art, he's giving valuable lessons. "Adapt to your generation but don't forget your culture" is hands down the best idea/phrase I've heard when it comes to adapting and growing. I hope he continues to inspire others. Great video!
The true goal of Martial Arts is personal development and growth. Fighting is the base mode and expression of that but it is only the beginning. Bruce lee's quote luke a finger pointing to the moon. Do not focus on the finger or you will miss all the heavenly glory. Attacks/defense techniques="the finger". Becoming the best version of your self gaining all the valuable traits, skills, and caracter development to deal with anything/everything in life. (Life lessons) that is "the heavenly glory". In martial arts you learn to defeat your only true enemy in life yourself.

Amazing person! Thanks Asian boss for this!! The amazing humility and grace is what I saw in many masters of art, not just martial arts. The more one practices, the more humble one becomes. The true reflection can only be seen in still water. People practice martial arts to be the “best” and be “unbeatable”. My years of practice showed me it is simply to maintain ones body and mind in perfect balance. The moment one starts thinking in terms of passionate judgements, the perfect practice gets interrupted. Expect nothing, give everything, and the joy will be yours in martial arts. I think it is also generally true
Cecep’s son has so much potential , kinda weird because he looks a lot like Iko Uwais when they did the movie Merantau, but yes so much potential this boy hope he starts getting film roles just like his father

Many people underestimate silat in many ways, and compare it to mua thay as real fighting weapon, and silat keep silent it highest level over centuries, i think someday silat need to show to the world in real fight (like MMA) how brutal and deadly silat is, so silat no longer underestimated and bring back their dignity in the society heart!!
Idk why I suddenly want to know more about Indonesian culture :D Love to my Indonesian buddies from India^^🇮🇳🇮🇩
👍👍thanks :)
🤙
Cool
👍
Very underrated country
He even already have his sound effects for every movement
@Pedro Silveira every pencak silat performer do that kind of effect when practicing daily. its not breathing technique. he claps his part of body/arms to make that sound. you cant see it because its too fast
Hell no brother, Your acting in Raid was absolutely insane. The amount of pain this man could take and inflict, whew. I feel like he was watered down in John Wick. No way he could've handled both of them.

Pepatah yang bagus
This man is so down to the earth, the way he talk to the Asian Boss guy is so calm and polite. Although he older than the Asian Boss guy.. respect..
ALMOST TO THE GOFUNDME GOALS! Let's keep going yall! We got this!
Good boys
hopefully they go & are gone for good🤢
@@kliyah8436 what?

Foley artist employment rate 📉📉📉
In my personal opinion, Pencak Silat is a very beautiful and graceful style but it's also raw and wild. I remember the first time I saw Iko Uwais beat up the machete gang in The Raid, my jaw literally dropped to the floor
Tekken needs to create an Indonesian character with this fighting style
The whole of South East Asia is proud of you.
Admiro muito o trabalho do Cecep Arif Rahman! Habilidoso, profissional e gentil. Abraços do Brasil 🇧🇷
I was genuinely scared of him when I first saw Raid 2. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that he seems nice!
I love Pencak Silat, respect and the best from Argentina!
Hi, I'm from Indonesia and I love capoeira. Love to see how brazillian-kick landing.
Imagine speaking Spanish 😂
The raid series was probably the best action movies of all time.
You got it men that's when I idolize iko uwais
I really hope Gareth Evans make The Raid 3 but it got cancelled 😟😟
Police story lah
Yea I still binge watch it's fight scenes
It is.
This reason why i so loved indonesia and pencak silat
Ive heard jujutsu kaisen shibuya arc is inspired by the raid i couldnt be more proud of pencak silat
It’s pleasure meeting you here currently. And I wish you all the best in all ramifications. Thank you very much for your beautiful comment as well too. If you don’t mind add me up on my personal Gmail. So that we can be able to contact each other effectively.
His son Faris Fadjar is also becoming an actor. Recently he acted in Indonesian superhero movie "Gundala" (directed by Joko Anwar, the horror master who came up with Impetigore, Satan Slaves etc)
Anjir jadi godam?!
I love that fellow BCU fans promoting Gundala here
Ohh that's why he looks familiar haha
Awang
Someone should update his IMDB page with a photo. He's very cute.
🇸🇪👋🇮🇩 What a great and humble guy. Silat does look intriguing.
Thx bro love From indonesia
Tusen tack
Him in The Raid: Very deadly and scary. Him in irl: Very humble and down to earth.
Utmost respect to Tok Guru Cecep from Malaysia...Very strong and soft character at the same time, very knowledgeable/skilful yet humble attitude Traditional yet Progressive mindset,
How simply and calmly he talks is extremely admirable.
I love that most of the Indonesian martial arts actors that have gone 'global' are actual martial artists from actual dojos.
Exactly!
Because that's an aspect Western producers are looking for when they're casting an Indonesian: martial arts skill. They don't need Reza Rahardian or Iqbal whatever-his-name-is, they have their own version but better. Not so much with martial artists.
Salam from Malaysia - kami tumpang bangga!
Halo malaysia😘🇲🇾❤, Salam dari Indonesia😁🇮🇩
I just figure out Indonesia language is very soothing and calm
That's because he's soft spoken. In Some parts of Indonesia, the people speak louder and faster... Like arguing..
"Adapt to your generation, but don't forget your culture" I loved that
He looks so humble. I'm only born in Indonesia, never went back. Seeing this man with his son, wants to go back home one day.
where did you grow up?
@@Aizeen0716 I grew up in Holland
welkom terug
I wished I could go back for once to find my roots
@@derkoenigvonbayern so you lost contact with your mothe-family?
Arif Rahman is a master, this dude has insane skill. Super humble.
I met my wife while I was in Indonesia and immidiatley fell in love with not only her but the country and the movies. I can watch Cecep in action all day long. I will watch any movie Cecep is in. Terima kasih tuan untuk berbagi hidup Anda dengan kami.
