He has something that can't be taught. He feels the music. Amazing for him to seem to relate to the song at 12 years old. James is smiling from heaven.
From what I read on him a few years back ...his parents took him to a concert, he pointed at the lead guitar and said that's what I'm gonna be when I grow up..
He's been on the big stage with Santana and Rob Thomas and Ellen Degeneres.. I agree this kid is awesome.. check out the rock ballad video.. you'll like it for sure
I hope everyone realizes how DIFFICULT it is to sound good without mice, without edits, without the best acoustics…. It’s just you and your voice. (Well and very good guitar playing off course) This is raw talent, he is made for performing. Cheers
Yeah, I actually thought this when listening. As a kid, he is more in touch with his soul than most adults. He hasn't departed his soul the way that most of us to as life beats us down.
This kid! 12???? The way he plays.and his voice is unreal. I am speechless. Dad just needs to let him have fun with it.. Id love to see more from him...
JUST TYPE IN THE SEARCH BAR ABOVE TAJ FARRANT !!! CHECK HIS VIDEOS OUT AT 8, 9, 10 & 11 YEARS OLD. HE HAS LOTS OF AWESOME VIDEOS !!! AT 10 YEARS OLD, TAJ PLAYED IN LAS VEGAS WITH CARLOS SANTANA !!! WATCH THAT VIDEO !!! AMAZING !!! TAJ DEFINITELY IS A "GIFT TO ALL" IN THE WORLD !!! HELLO TO TAJ, HIS FAMILY AND ALL OF HIS CLOSE GUITAR FRIENDS !!!
HeyTaj, been watching you for quite some time. You have a real gift and an awesome talent. Anyone who knows Blues and Rock can tell this ability is in, and comes from your soul. You play like a man of an older generation like mine. I’m 61 born and raised in Chicago and know a little something about the Blues. GOD bless and keep playing and I’ll keep watching you!
Dad, let him be him. That is where his uniqueness comes in. Let him talk the way he wants too, sing the way he likes too and let him be him. The support your giving him is awesome, but if you want this or that- you sing your own version. Great Job Lil White Owl.
I totally agree, I was just saying the same thing! That's how they lose interest, it happened to my daughter. Every time she came to me with an interest, I would sign her up. However, her father would manage to ruin it for her.
This kid just brought me out of my slump of not playing for a pretty long time . I opened my case for my stratocaster and turned on my tube amp and played along. Thanks Raj. No one has been able to get me to move and pick up my GUITAR in a long time .but u did that ... You have the mojo ✨ magic son.
Keep up the good work young man,and what out because money has a way of changing people's.All you got to do is take care of Numero uno.God gives us all certain gifts,others sometimes not,.Find yourself some pro management ,as we have all seen how the family management doesn't usually work out to good for the musician,nothing personal,that's just good business!you deserve the best! Thanks again!I hadn't picked up my guitar for a while,(because of arthuritus)but I still knock it out.!God Bless
I’ve been playing guitar most of my life, I know how to play piano, I was in Drumline, marching band, I worked in the music industry in Southern California for years, even judged vans warped tour battle of the bands in early 2000s. Out of everything I’ve seen, this kid is really fucking awesome. And I mean out of everything I’ve seen in my entire life, this kid is really something special.
Agreed 💯 Lux Green! I too play guitar, I worked and managed record stores for 10 years out of high school and I have seen just about every major hard rock and metal band from the 80's to the late 90's plus met and hung out with many famous musicians and rock stars from that era plus I have seen various other music acts from jazz to country, rap and hip hop, you name it, and this kid is as good as anyone that I have ever seen and/or listened to play guitar. And I've seen many of the greats. He's the real deal. As one guitar critic on RUclips who critiqued Taj playing "Tennessee Whiskey" Chris Stapleton's version said, "You can teach someone to play faster the more they practice and play because that's inevitable with time, but you can't teach someone to play with such feel.". You either have that naturally or you don't, and Taj has it in spades. Just an incredible talent.
This kid is str8 gifted. He killed this. I would love to hear him play "Thrill Is Gone" by B.B. King (if he hasn't yet). Would be better if dad didn't interrupt while he was playing.
Yes!!! It was getting on my nerves. Taj is composing as he is playing and his dad in giving his opinion about something he can't do himself. PLEASE - Let Taj do his thing - You already had your turn - DAD - Be proud without (counting) or (adding). That's not what it's about. It's about creating.
This child is a reincarnated soul singer from 1960's. U can tell by the way he uses his vocals. An how he is in tune with that guitar. Plus his hair speaks volumes. One of a kind voice!!! He's a old soul. Phenomenal!!! 🤎🤎
I don't agree totally. There's nothing like "born to do something". This kid is the effect of super coaching by his parent. Imagine how many kids around the world are there just left in their growing age for just playing video games, kicking the ball, riding a bike, then finish school and go for work in a bloo** warehouse for a god damn life. This is the example of how kids knowledge and skills can rise under right parent.
I knew this kid was amazing, but until tonight, I had never heard him sing. Wow! And to think he’s only 12 in this video. God had something special in mind when he created this young man. 👍🔥👍🔥👍🔥
Wow! Don't know which is better, his singing or his guitar playing, they're both fabulous. Phenomenal appreciation of musical nuance at such a tender age. He obviously has an innate talent but also an amazing teacher! If he's this good now, Lord only knows where he's gonna be in 5 years time.
I just love that this beautiful song, by the late great James Brown is still finding a home in the heart and souls of young ones. Taj thank you that was special.
Don't beat up on his dad for talking he made him let that man enjoy his sons talent he knew him first, have fun dad enjoy time with your blessed off spring.
Wow, this kid is good, this is coming from his souls. Great song, James Brown would be the last song I would have thought this guy would sing but he went there, and went there as a Super Star too. AWESOME JOB. How do I add STARS for him. Sorry but I don't understand how to place stars on for him. I support him allllllll the way.
You would have to follow him on Facebook and like his page in order to send stars. I think whenever he goes live yiu can donate stars, maybe even after the live ends.
@@MsLuckythekitty ADD ME TO THE LIST. NOT EVERYONE IS A TECHY PERSON AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE THE "HOW TO'S !!!" WE WANT TO HELP TAJ GET THE STARS !!! THANK YOU TO WHOEVER HELPS US WITH "CLEAR DIRECTIONS" ON HOW TO GIVE STARS TO TAJ !!!
You can see it in his face how he's not just playing and singing, but also 'feeling' it. I wish I still have this ability to 'feel' the music. Mad skills, kid.
I HAVE NEVER EVER SEEN A CHILD THIS YOUNG PLAY SO PROFESSIONALLY!!!! HE IS AWSOME!!! I BELIEVE THIS KID WAS BORN RIGHT OUT OF THE WOMB WITH A GUITAR IN HIS HAND.!! CANT SAY ENOUGH .LOVE HIM.
I am totally humbled. I am 64. I have been devoted tousic since I danced out of mamas womb. And this young man is sent from the heavens. He works and earns his following.
Maaate, I’ve been playing professionally, guitar/vocals, for 45 years. Son, your vocals are right on the Mail. Your playing is spot on in the pocket. As far as the little “mistake” at the beginning, you handled like a pro!!! Yes mate, you’ve got the goods. There’s ppl who want to be on stage and ppl who should be on the stage! You’ve made my day son. Wooohooo… Great teacher as well. Tell him the truth. Yeeeesssssssss
@@wheninroamful - No, the saying is actually "Right as the mail". It is a British saying, and it means absolutely right, correct, no error. It stems from the idea that the mail (Royal Mail) is always delivered on time and without error.
This child prodigy is another exceptional one with amazing talent and the way he plays that guitar, I love it! May ‘GOD’ Bless This Young Man, With Faith And Belief In ‘GOD’ And ‘JESUS CHRIST’ Our ‘SAVIOR’!!!
He's played like this since he was 7 and had only played for 2 years from age 5! He was Virtuoso within about 6 months.. He shared a stage with Santana 2 years ago and joined Orianthi on stage aswell kids a blues Genius! 👍🎸♥️🏴
Who said you couldn’t? I assume u assumed you and others also assumed that only blacks can sing, have soul and have musical talent. Ignorance is bliss!
Every race can sing, true indeed.. BUT Black Americans(ADOS) created JAZZ SOUL HIP HOP RNB ROCK and ROLL BLUES so on and so forth . So yes soul and swag is exclusively Black American (ADOS).. Peace and Blessings
@@nobr555 What you say is true and known, why do you think M. Bishop made the “bliss” statement “ You can find soul in any nationality…” And my response was “Who said you couldn’t?” But yes, Black Americans are still the drivers for the most part. Peace and blessings!
Awesome. He's gifted. Great playing. He can really play rhythm and blues. He feels the music. Great voice projection and playing is stellar. Hope he goes independent and own his own music and creativity and not let the industry control him.
Wow! What this young boy to young man has is truly a gift from God! Stay on the path your on Taj, no doubt you already are a rock star and legend. A little advice, never let fame go to your head and completely stay away from drugs and alcohol. We’ve lost too many talented people leave this world because of those things. I’m sure you know that already, you have an amazing family and your Dad is truly your best friend! I am a huge fan and have been watching you for a couple of years now. Thank you thank you thank you!!! I continue to be excited for for each time I get to listen to you, oh I love that your singing now! Keep going strong Taj!!😎
GOD BLESS YOU TAJ!!!!! YOU ARE OFF THE CHAIN !!!!!! YOU ARE GOD GIFTED 🙌 🙏 HANDS DOWN!!!!!! I COME FROM A MUSIC FAMILY 👪 AND BEEN AROUND IT ALL MY LIFE!!!!! KEEP SHARING YOUR GIFT WITH THE WORLD!!!!!!
Remember seeing this little guy on Ellen and thinking… you can’t teach that, it comes from inside him. He’s a talented young man to say the least… music will be his ticket to enjoy his life and do what he loves.
Soul baby. True soul which is just amazingly refreshing to hear coming from a young man. Looking forward to seeing where that soul takes him because he is in for a trip.
My grand parents lived walking distances in Saint Albans from his house. His wife was my baby sitter in the 60's and I really believe he would be proud of this young man. The fact that many young people still sing his songs in talent shows say a lot.
God-given talent right there! Wow, I saw you playing with Tedeschi-Trucks and was amazed then, this is simply amazing! Don’t let anything or anyone poison your abilities and the music you create. Damn son!!
He has a mature sense of Blues phrasing. Dads can play an important role in a person's development as a musician. Mozart, CPE Bach, Johnny Green are a few that come to mind. Starting off young is a great advantage.
This young man is fabulous , Dad you need to give it a rest , I'm sure he'll appreciate the help but give everyone a chance to hear his beautiful voice
Oh…my…goodness. You can just hear how he’s got it even with his young voice. The runs are natural. I hope to see more and more of him to see what his vocals develop into as he gets older!!!!
@@pamfradette1191 well i have to disagree with you anyone can learn and get good at the guitar its not like chess which requires an iq of 190 to be really good great guitar players are a dime a dozen theres tons of them just on youtube just imagine all the great ones that dont post
I’ve been watching this kid for a couple of years now and he just keeps killin it!!! Amazing !! Absolutely amazing! I guess it’s true when they say legends are born!
Pure talent - he certainly looks & sounds to be loving what he's doing. Great performance of a great song ... not a criticism, but can you imagine how good he will sound when he's older & truly feels & understands those lyrics... Wow! I'm sure we'll all be hearing that! A star is born ... 👏👏👏
Young Aussie boy. He has such soul and feeling that's natural. I love the little growl in his voice when he sings. Go Taj you have a wonderful talent, I wish you well on your journey forward. 👏👏
What a wonderful gift. Thank you for sharing. I have been a fan since the first instrumental Tennessee Whiskey. Your family is wonderful. I love how everyone supports each other and every one is important. Love, love, love, to all of the family.
As soon as he started to sing my eyes filled with tears!!! He's got a SOUL in that body of his.. Dad hush a little while... 🧡😘😘😍😘 Yaboy is awesome You will go far young man.
Amazin that this song so many years old can find a place in a young man's heart, also this is the jam that made folks looked at J. Brown in a different light. Great job.
I am IMPRESSED, great, great, great,great playing and singing-Please keep playing guitar and singing and yes you are an inspiration, I've to learn to play some licks to Its A Man's Man's World, one of my favorite songs by James Brown. Very, Very, Very Good !!!!
i STARTED PLAYING THE GUITAR AT AGE 9 ,I'M 62 NOW AND STILL PLAY ! I GOT SO MUCH SATISFACTION WHEN I STARTED WRITING MY OWN MUSIC AND LYRICS. TOOK ME TOO ANOTHER LEVEL OF CREATIVITY. ALL MY FEELINGS COME OUT IN MY GUITAR ! YOUR A GREAT KID, AND ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR MOM AND DAD, THEY KNOW BEST ! I'VE NEVER SEEN SOMEONE , YOUR AGE THAT CAN PLAY WITH SUCH FEELING ! I RECONIZE YOUR TREMENDOUS TALENT ! THE MUSIC WORLD CAN BE A ROUGH BUSINESS ! AND A VERY PASSIONATE AND EMOTIONAL JOURNEY !
Bravo to this young boy, it’s so great to see this guy he’s guitar playing with so much passion for a 12 year old, just fantastic, his expressions are priceless, grandma approved. Keep up the good work
Taj, you have just as many facial expressions as you do notes on that guitar.You really feel the music & your talent is taking you to even bigger & better places.When you are older & in your prime,you will be regarded as one of the greats.
He has something that can't be taught. He feels the music. Amazing for him to seem to relate to the song at 12 years old. James is smiling from heaven.
You got that right! He maybe 12 yrs old, but his soul is where it's at. Great job kid. 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
He has been Bless with this singing voice and gifted playing the bass guitar You go anointed!!! You will go far Be Bless Always !!!

This can't be Taught,I'm willing to Bet,this baby came out the womb doing this beyond GENIUS,he already plays World class level guitar.
The playing can definitely be taught not the singing though
Very talented and you sounded amazing! Keep up the good chops! 😊💖
I swear it’s SRV reincarnated, I’ve seen vids of this kid playing, you can’t teach what he feels!
ik he plays beyond his years & then some beautiful guitar sound, he got swagg ❣️❣️❣️🙏🎸🎶😍
From what I read on him a few years back ...his parents took him to a concert, he pointed at the lead guitar and said that's what I'm gonna be when I grow up..
Dude can open up for some groups right now. His Guitar and vocals are serious. Congrats to you Taj!!!
He's been on the big stage with Santana and Rob Thomas and Ellen Degeneres.. I agree this kid is awesome.. check out the rock ballad video.. you'll like it for sure
I hope everyone realizes how DIFFICULT it is to sound good without mice, without edits, without the best acoustics….
It’s just you and your voice. (Well and very good guitar playing off course)
This is raw talent, he is made for performing.
Cheers
I have been following this young man from day 1 he is progressing well look forward to seeing him in the big time keep shreddin lil brother

Thats awsome ... I bet your talented also. Use it..
Don't loose it .. Let him inspire...
Good for you. I was just thinking this last night. I have a piano, guitar , violin, harmonica, & I am here sitting on the couch........

There's more soul in this kids playing than the entire top 100 chart songs combined. Epic!
Music now is trash. No soul.
Omfg,amazing! This child has more soul at this age than most people ever do! Again absolutely amazing!!!!
Yeah, I actually thought this when listening. As a kid, he is more in touch with his soul than most adults. He hasn't departed his soul the way that most of us to as life beats us down.
Hearing this child renews my faith in the future of music!!
YES!!!
No Don..."Hearing this child renews my faith in the future of music!! no "Hearing this child renews my faith in the future of the World!!

Remember seeing this little guy on Ellen and thinking… you can’t teach that, it comes from inside him. He’s a talented young man to say the least… music will be his ticket to enjoy his life and do what he loves.
It comes from deep down
Soul baby. True soul which is just amazingly refreshing to hear coming from a young man. Looking forward to seeing where that soul takes him because he is in for a trip.
Yeah I been following him on here for a very long time. An from the time I started following him to now. He has came a long way with his music.
when you sing and play with your heart , people see your entire soul 👏
The kid has the finest raw talent. I lived in James Brown's neck of the woods. He would've loved this kid.
I can almost imagine his reaction to seeing and hearing him
My grand parents lived walking distances in Saint Albans from his house. His wife was my baby sitter in the 60's and I really believe he would be proud of this young man. The fact that many young people still sing his songs in talent shows say a lot.
He is absolutely incredible. Other Raw talent "Blesser" original version
Where is your next concert 🎶! I love your style so much 🥰🥰🥰! The way his feelings on music are so passionate 👍🏼🥰🥰
This is fucking insane man. Like I don’t think you’ll ever fully comprehend how much talent your kid has. You’re a great dad!
Every child needs a supportive and encouraging parent like this. Taj's dreams being realized before our eyes.
his son appears not to care yet his Dad is all about the stats. Interesting.
Words can’t say enough about him.... He’s just got IT
He surely does and I'm his # 1 fan from Texas.❣🎸🎶Crank it up! 🔊
Exactly! 🤩😍
Go far young man!!!!!!
Can he sing who's loving you by the Jackson 5?
God-given talent right there! Wow, I saw you playing with Tedeschi-Trucks and was amazed then, this is simply amazing! Don’t let anything or anyone poison your abilities and the music you create. Damn son!!
Awe man.. mind blowing
This young man ain't nothing to b played with. Very blessed hands and voice
He has a mature sense of Blues phrasing. Dads can play an important role in a person's development as a musician. Mozart, CPE Bach, Johnny Green are a few that come to mind. Starting off young is a great advantage.
He's got an old soul singing and playing through him!
I love this lad , I have watched his progress for the last 3 years . 💯🙏👍♥️♥️♥️
Oh man I could feel every note he played and he is tremendous‼️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Hello from South Dakota USA. Keep up the good work young man. Thank you !
This young man is fabulous , Dad you need to give it a rest , I'm sure he'll appreciate the help but give everyone a chance to hear his beautiful voice
Oh…my…goodness. You can just hear how he’s got it even with his young voice. The runs are natural. I hope to see more and more of him to see what his vocals develop into as he gets older!!!!
He is owning the song and as he get older he will do his own thing singing and plays that guitar with soul already
An absolute gift, you can't teach this at his age, just born with it..
I agree....The guitar came out first, and Taj came out to get it!!!!!
and he got the hair and facial expression to go with it too! absolute excellence!
guitar takes practice instruments are learned what you put into it is what you get back
@@jimmyjameslee7189 not true. Yep you need practice, but it's usually a gift. You've either got "it" or you don't.
@@pamfradette1191 well i have to disagree with you anyone can learn and get good at the guitar its not like chess which requires an iq of 190 to be really good great guitar players are a dime a dozen theres tons of them just on youtube just imagine all the great ones that dont post
I’ve been watching this kid for a couple of years now and he just keeps killin it!!! Amazing !! Absolutely amazing! I guess it’s true when they say legends are born!
Indeed. They are born, not made. This one will be a legend, in his own time.
@@AK-rh3vt I agree
Wowww, my first time hearing him- & he’s AMAZING, I’m in, GOING to follow him NOW!!
@@AK-rh3vt It is a combo of both and more. Sorry to nitpick on this great vid!
Wow where can I see his videos. Outstanding he is. I hope we can go see him live sometime
I love you man! Great job “ Beautiful voice
🤩 Wow! Excellent singing and exquisite guitar 🎸 playing!
I'm sure hes hears this a hundred times a day, but Damn he's Sooo Dammed Talented 🤙🙏🇺🇸
Pure talent - he certainly looks & sounds to be loving what he's doing. Great performance of a great song ... not a criticism, but can you imagine how good he will sound when he's older & truly feels & understands those lyrics... Wow! I'm sure we'll all be hearing that! A star is born ... 👏👏👏
Amazing. I've learned long ago to never underestimate those younger than myself. I appreciate this so much. Thank you for sharing this with the world.
Vocals are getting sooooo good!!!!! Santana & You ROCKED IT!!!! Enjoying you tremendously!!!! Hello from Florida!😎
Young Aussie boy. He has
such soul and feeling that's natural. I love the little growl in his voice when he sings. Go Taj you have a wonderful talent, I wish you well on your journey forward. 👏👏
Incredible, soulful vocals and guitar playing Taj!! ❤️🎸🎶
What a wonderful gift. Thank you for sharing. I have been a fan since the first instrumental Tennessee Whiskey. Your family is wonderful. I love how everyone supports each other and every one is important. Love, love, love, to all of the family.
Taj reminds me of the way B.B.KING takes turns singing then playing....He said it throws him off to do both at once. Thanks for another great one....
He’s come from somewhere else and been reincarnated to a 12 year old amazing boy with an old beautiful soul. Absolutely wonderful! 🙏🏼🇬🇧
Agree 🙏🏼
That's what I thought, and I thought Jeff Healey. Awesomeness! I want to see more of this young star. ⭐
This boy is talented.
Yep!! He has
Ok.
respect for both the singing and the love he has for his guitair!
As soon as he started to sing my eyes filled with tears!!! He's got a SOUL in that body of his.. Dad hush a little while... 🧡😘😘😍😘 Yaboy is awesome You will go far young man.
His feel - 100%, Singing - 100%, Call and response - 100% 🔥🔥🔥
Love Taj's look, hair, voice, and guitar playing. He has it all.
Amazin that this song so many years old can find a place in a young man's heart, also this is the jam that made folks looked at J. Brown in a different light. Great job.
He plays naturally! Naturally gifted! Naturally blessed! Naturally manifested from his natural soul
Beyond everything superficial... so soulful... you are an inspiration Taj 😇💕🙏
Very nice Taj. Your talents grow exponentially! 🤘😎🤘
For about 2 years I've followed Taj and it's such a
Pleasure to watch his progression,especially his
Vocals.Great Job!!
I am IMPRESSED, great, great, great,great playing and singing-Please keep playing guitar and singing and yes you are an inspiration, I've to learn to play some licks to Its A Man's Man's World, one of my favorite songs by James Brown. Very, Very, Very Good !!!!
Yes indeed he was born for this and he's using his God gifted talent to bless any one who has an ear to hear.
Amen! Blessings
God doesnt exist
@@nutsack-1904 how do you know that?
Crimson Orion if god can do anything could he microwave a burrito so hot that he him self could not eat it?
@@nutsack-1904 exactly 👍🏽
11:17 that made me spew a whole lot of adult words I care not to repeat!!!!! Nothing sounds more beautiful than a well played guitar!!!!!
Love his voice !! So cool a twelve yr old loves the blues !!!
i STARTED PLAYING THE GUITAR AT AGE 9 ,I'M 62 NOW AND STILL PLAY ! I GOT SO MUCH SATISFACTION WHEN I STARTED WRITING MY OWN MUSIC AND LYRICS. TOOK ME TOO ANOTHER LEVEL OF CREATIVITY. ALL MY FEELINGS COME OUT IN MY GUITAR ! YOUR A GREAT KID, AND ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR MOM AND DAD, THEY KNOW BEST ! I'VE NEVER SEEN SOMEONE , YOUR AGE THAT CAN PLAY WITH SUCH FEELING ! I RECONIZE YOUR TREMENDOUS TALENT ! THE MUSIC WORLD CAN BE A ROUGH BUSINESS ! AND A VERY PASSIONATE AND EMOTIONAL JOURNEY !
This young man has such a God given talent that is so beautiful! The he plays that guitar is wonderful! Wish you much success!
Bravo to this young boy, it’s so great to see this guy he’s guitar playing with so much passion for a 12 year old, just fantastic, his expressions are priceless, grandma approved. Keep up the good work
You’re getting better and better young man! Looking forward to your future venues!
Taj, you have just as many facial expressions as you do notes on that guitar.You really feel the music & your talent is taking you to even bigger & better places.When you are older & in your prime,you will be regarded as one of the greats.
Insanely talented, can't imagine the hours of practice for such a young soul, well done buddy !
