this might be the most equitable and humble staging of a band I've ever seen. Instead of placing the lead singer out front, Willow placed herself upstage in a semi-circle with her pianist and drummer downstage (closer to the audience). Such a lovely and beautiful display of musicianship and collaboration.
That's because she isn't the strongest. You can tell she just learnt a few chords and needs the everyone else to create the music.
lol, she still placed herself in the center..anyway I think the music is weak at best
@@barcelonachair6487 Huh? Many artists barely play instruments and stand in the front using just their voice. She could have done the same
@@barcelonachair6487 The piano part was written by John Batiste. He's amazing. She is mid, at best.
@@barcelonachair6487no it’s for all of these wonderful musicians to communicate without a conductor or any form of click track.
Willow just dropped the album of the year. Grammy worthy.
I agree!
no fucking shaaaay!! completely
Exactly
hahahaa
Agreed
She built a great band. Thats probably one of the hardest things to do. Shows real talent.
The mighty Mohini Dey on bass, she's fantastic!
THE @pocketqueen ON DRUMS. SHED AN ABSOLUTE BEAST
And making her own name and path
And good musicians won’t waste their time and talent. They heard and saw something in them.
Thats a wicked studio band
She's outdone a lot of people with this album! A lot of intelligence, professionalism, very high level. I'm looking forward to all the music she's going to create for us over the next few decades! Bravo Willow !
Omg she sure did I love Symptom of Life and Pain for Fun with St. Vincent. Been playing the whole album. Soooooo effing good. That’s quality music, that’s talent.
Agreed
Are your ears broke? Might wanna get those checked cuz that's just crazy! NOT even close
Yes-great music!!
Indeed she has!!!
Holy smokes! Never expected this level of performance. The girl is nailing it!
I’m blown away 🔥
jazz, soul, modern, flamenco... hmmm distinct willow style!!! luv it
So unique and refreshing
Flamenco?
@@martinpaddle 😂apparently... I'm assuming the clapping section lol
Shite
I looked it up. It does have a flamenco taste to it. Definitely this guy knows his music@@martinpaddle
WOW impressed. She is surrounded by talented musicians! Great to hear for her generation. Bring Back real music! EXCELLENT!
Yes she’s bringing back something interesting!!
No one gives a f@ckif she’s black or not it’s just great music and she found her thing
@@raulelizarraga4092You’re so racist that you’re seeing the word black even when it’s not their. Get a life.
@@raulelizarraga4092 … “bring BACK real music”
@@ClaudieCaracol there you go .
Her album surprised me in the best way, it’s so good. This performance was spectacular as was her Tiny Desk performance. Amazing band, amazing vocals, amazing song and album. Very impressive.
Yeah, I going to now view her Tiny Desk performance.
Agreed! Hope she tours to my city.
She killed it!!!!!!! They all did amazing!!
TRUE!👍
❤❤❤❤❤❤!!!!!!!!
wow willow level feeling jazz ...and sounds with soul
💯 %
Very Jazz.. watch her tiny desk performance very beautiful jazz
This gave me shivers!! I feel like willow knows and accepts herself for all that she is and that is beautiful 🥰
Absolutely💯 Was thinking the same. Willow seems like an old soul. She’s already won half the battle by accepting who she is and who she’s not, which ain’t always an easy feat. Some go their whole lives without being able to accomplish that. I ❤ that’s she’s made her own lane separate from her famous family. Her talent speaks for itself. It’s like I’m proud of her🤭… Just❤this for her.
@@GoodVybzzz we should be proud of her!! She leads the way for the rest of us…..self love and not allowing anybody or anything to hold you back 🥰 magic ✨
Willow is one for the music snobs. She is serious talent! 😮❤🎉
Willow has grown into her own her vocals are beautiful love this song.
who are the instrumentalists? they're all killing it, need to be credited for sure!
Pretty sure that it’s Mohini Dey Hartsuch on bass - she’s incredible
Pretty sure it's the same lineup as her Tiny Desk: Liso Lee - guitar, Zach Tenorio - piano, Mohini Dey - bass, Taylor "The Pocket Queen" Gordon - drums
@@jel.moradayeah. I just went there after watching this. I like them!
Mohini Dey: Bass; The Pocket Queen: Drums (sorry I don’t know her real name;
pianist is Zach Tenorio of @ArcIrisMusic
This band is mind-blowing and should stay here forever. Mohini and Pocket Queen are locked in perfectly. You have funk, jazz, experimental, rock and everything else in this band. You guys are going to win the next Grammy and more.
Which is on the drums?
@@TeeRql That's Taylor Gordon a.k.a Pocket Queen.
@@jayenvarma thank u!
This woman is the most talented member of her family You go, girl !!! ❤
PERIOD
🤣🤣
Well Will is a great actor...
@@al_alldaychriswilliams85rf16I like Will's rap too.
Cap.. you may not like the mom and upset with the dad but they're both as or more talented.. both are proven actors and musicians.. Will has seen the peak of both music and acting with Oscars, Emmys, and Grammys.. a legit movie star that carried Hollywood for a generation.. I love Willow but don't disrespect her parents.
That's the most exquisite modern improvisational jazz I've heard in quite awhile...those young ladies were getting it, putting it down❤
Improvisational?
Yes, I agree but Piano player is a male.
OMG the musicality is Astonishing!! How chaotically organized! Instinctively disarrayed!! Just genius!! wtf
The authenticity of this band is incredible. Each member POURING their love into their craft. AMAZING 😍
The pianist and the drummer, the bassist...Willow...YES!!!
pianist is Zach Tenorio of @ArcIrisMusic
Drummer is The Pocket Queen!
Jimmy said it Oh my goodness in the most complimentary way❤ The women in this group are one 🙂🙃🙂
Jimmy says oh my goodness to a dirty sock
@@bestbyte1Do you hide in his laundry?
@@leagarner3675 no need to hide… he SCREAMS & SHOUTS his obsequious praise to anyone & anything at anytime.. the only people that don’t hear it are deaf; and they get the message by his uncontrollable gyrations of pretentious ecstasy
She gets better each year ❤
Must've started at the bottom of the ocean if this is better
I whipped my hair back and forth!!!Willow is LIMITLESS
Willow’s tiny desk is amazing 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 as well! Love all the different styles of music in one song 🙌🏽 Go Willow! True student of music and authenticity ♥️
That composition is insane!! Great work by the band!
She’s a very talented musician, and singing an original song takes a lot of guts. So applause 👏 for you !!!🎉
Willow is growing into her own star and she has the best band members to back her up and they play there asses off too..... Can't wait to see this on tour .
The amount of times I can watch and listen to this performances is becoming alarming lmao. The pure musicality and connection the band members have with one another is truly something to witness on top of how amazing it sounds. This performance on every level is genius. We done came a long way from whipping our hair.
The Pocket Queen Taylor Gordon playing with Willow is awesome
Yes!!!!
And Mohini Dey on bass. That is a killer band.
I had a GOOD FEELIN' that was her WICKED!!! .. This was SICK!! Willow is Shining BRIGHT!!!!! 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌😉😉❤this!
This is what makes me believe the children will be alright so to speak. This was masterfully and progressively done. With the Afro!!! Great job Willow!!!!!
Something different. I love it. Happy she happy. Love her glow😮😊 beautiful beautiful
Ms. Willow Smith and her band...PHENOMENAL PHENOMENAL PHENOMENAL!!! ❤😊
she's bloomed into such a unique artist. beautiful talent!! can't wait to see her evolution as an artist!
This gave me chills. She has come a long way on this Journey in finding herself and VOICE❤
A young Esperanza Spalding right there. Loved it
that’s the vibe i got too
She's a young willow stop with the dumb comparisons
@@ShantezTolbutshes willow stop with the dumb comparisons
Omg yesss! I was looking for a comment like this. She was giving me Esperanza vibes too, she’s one of my favorite jazz artists ❤
My first thought as well! Esperanza is one of my favorite artists, this composition really reminded me of work in all the best ways.
That was awesome. Unique sound. Crazy talent across the whole group.
Bringing Jazz to the masses! Amazing track. Amazing band. Brilliant vocals!
Yes!
Giving me a 70's vibe. I love it!🔥🔥👍👍❤❤
Absolutely 💯
absolutely
She’s not only promoting an album, they’re celebrating life.
eternally proud of her. ❤ her style on this album feels like if solange and fiona apple fused.
Her artistry is just so beautiful!
Fantastic! This was such an interesting arrangement. Her voice is great!
Refreshing to see real instruments and nothing but the musicians playing their hearts out
If you have a Soul, you have no choice but to feel the vibes Willow is bringing 💗✊🏾
Wow what an exceptional group of young female musicians. Looks like a great intentional move. Good for you Willow!
Her and the bands sound is very modern psychedelic groove funk rock… this is HER VIBE! Love 💎💎💎🥰
Proud to see her expressing her self Yippee to the adventure of WILLOW💯😎💖👀🎊🎊🤩🤩😍😍😍
I love Willow’s artistry and willingness to surrendered to the winds of creativity.🎶💜🎶
I am so proud of this young woman finding her voice and surrounding hersel with an incredible band. HOT damn. I AM WEEPING WITH JOY FOR this level of growth and muscial expression.
The band was great. Willow added two instruments. Her voice and the guitar. She played her part. Fair play and good job.
Her voice is unique and amazing!!!
Hell yes she’s bringing back musicianship! Love her band!!
I'm obsessed with this band she put together - i literally can't stop rewatching her tiny desk performance i'm so glad we get to see more of them!
Wow, what a pleasant surprise. Love tge musical arrangements. Jeez. That PIANIST is mind-blowing fierce
Musicians here. We just love her new choices. Hi from Romania, huge fans of Jimmy and all this team making the show
Willow is different, like her & her brother! Musically talented
I was pleasantly surprised. Love this. Willow. Band. Pianist crazy talented. Song arrangement! 🔥
The sound is similar to adowa sound of Ghana. She's tapping into the west African culture indeed. I love it.
FAM THATS POCKET QUEEN ON THE DRUMSSSSSSS😍
Gorrrrgeous. So uniquely awesome. Amazzzing piano player. Loooooooove❤
pianist is Zach Tenorio of @ArcIrisMusic
The girl got that midas touch. Completely in love with the music she’s making❤
I love it Willow you’re awesome. Keep it going. I love the flow of your music was a great spirit and a great performance loved it all the way.❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾
Reminds me of John Coltrane and Led Zeppelins Kashmir! Willows voice is like a soulful jazzy version of Rihanna! AMAZING MUSIC! That bassist, MOHINI DEY, is low key one of the best in the world by the way. Cant help but think her journey into her African heritage led to this sound! Sometimes you have to look back to see the path forward. This live version blows her album version out of the water, I think she should record it again.
Amazing. I want more. I learned something here too. Thanks
💯
@@leagarner3675 yw! Check out Mohini Dey, she is really good too. Jazz Quartets were changed by the revolutionary free jazz that coltrane and miles helped to start, breaking free of old traditional bebop and swing jazz, for a more spiritual and free form music. Coltrane and Miles are both legends in the jazz world but coltrane to me is an unsung hero. He is like jimi hendrix on saxophone, he was the greatest that ever lived, and died too soon.
Rihanna 😂?!
@@notknown6605 Yes, the tone of her voice when she projected her voice more sounded like Rihanna to me. I listen to music all the time, and I found the tone of her voice is a lot like hers, she would be a good vocal coach for her to take a more Popular approach to that style of voice. Their natural singing voice is a similar tone.
She looks stunning with that afro ❤
“WILLOW” And Her “BAND” Are Truly “AMAZING “!!! They “KILL’D” It !👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
OH GOSH!!! thank you so much for this, i feel hypnotized 😵💫
Is that Mohini Dey on the bass? Killer bass player
That's her!
She’s the real deal! Very talented!
Love this! She deserves every flower she gets !🥹
Talk about Album of the Year!! THIS right here ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Amazing!!!!
And looking like a young Angela Davis. 👍
❤❤❤
She does a bit :)
Absolutely nailed it
Angela Davis would never have that crap in her mouth or nose! The fro is the only thing they have in common.
Someone wrote she also looked like Rebel from GHS. I almost threw my coffee thinking about it.
LADIES AND GENTS, WILLOW HAS OFFICIALLY ARRIVED !!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💥💥💥
Willow and her band killed it! Y'all better Recognize! 🌹🌹❤️🌹🌹
The band she put together is killer. I follow everyone in the band individually. She paid a lot of money for the best young musicians available.
This is the key, people are going crazy in the section but Willow is getting all the credit for playing a couple of cords and these are amazing musicians and if they left her side tomorrow her sound would be blank. I don't think she wrote that book, she never went to school or home school. Writing is an arduous process. I don't buy anything the Smith family does. They all were "made."
Who’s the pianist?
They all made it’s fantastic!
They did so amazing; Willow is in her own lane, she definitely found her sound 😮💨🔥
Made my heart flutter❤
I. Am. Impressed. WOW!
❤ yessss you go, girl ❤
This blew me away.
Wow.... Willow just keeps getting better, true talent, and amazing talented band members .... beautiful work.
Willow you are giving me Esperanza vibes. I love it!!!!
Willow! The Band! Say no more. 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎶🎵🎵🎶🎼🎼🎼🎹🎶
Grammy wins in her future for sure. She finally found her unique sound. The jazz, indie rock, pop fusion on this album is everything
Her gift is amazing ❤
She's fabulous ! Love love 💕
I LOVEEEE THE AFRO!! 😍🔥🙌🏾 The sultry, simplicity, gangstaaaa GOLDEN VIBE!!!! Let emmm know who we are sis!!!!
She is so beautiful and talented 💜 amazing band. Hope she will get some Grammy for this album.
She better!!!
Willow's vocals, my goodness! ✨️🖤
Pocket queen rocking the drums!🔥

I can’t come up with the right words for this. It’s other worldly amazing. A complete shock she is this good.
Beautiful, gorgeous and very very talented yasss willow very creative and authentic
