John P Kee always kept top notch drummers! Jeff Davis, Ladell Abrams, Calvin Rodgers, Chris Kee, CJ Thompson, Devin “Stixx” Taylor, and Gabe Bennett. His band has always been funky and tight!
PLAY BOYYYYYYY🥁🥁 THAT'S MY BABY BOY ON THE DRUMS... WELL REALLY GABE IS MY SISTER'S SON,. MY NEPHEW WHO CONTINUES TO MAKE OUR FAMILY SO PROUD! HE STARTED PLAYING DRUMS IN CHURCH WHEN HE WAS BARELY 5 BELIEVE IT OR NOT!

Naw y'all. Mainstream gospel like this ain't a thing anymore. These mainstream artists ever since Mary Mary, Kirk (after the Rebirth album), Todd Delaney, etc all wanna fit in with the top 40's or CCM crowd. THIS type of gospel is now the ole skool of gospel music 😭😭😭
In all truth, this kind of music God did not authorize in praise and worship in the New Testament church. Scripture tells us to sing...not play and sing.
I am beyond worried about the world we live in when 60+ people actually “disliked” this video????! I was not only blown away by the musical talent, but caught the Holy Spirit as well. GOOSEBUMPS BABY!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
what is there to dislike.... man I am straight teacher of the word Pastor... and at 58 years old I'm getting down praising the Lord with these guys....
This medley just walked all the way through my childhood and into my adulthood. John P Kee has always kept the tightest band and the hottest concerts. Much respect to him for always staying true to that and yes this whole band is blazzin and the transitions make me wanna throw this phone!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Gabe’s got more pocket than a billiard table! Seriously that transition was so slick, love how he was like yeah fella’s, that just happened! Cool hey? Surprised the whole band didn’t catch fire it was that lit. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@Luke Brown.....Thank you so much bruh for that compliment on behalf of my family 🤎 Gabe is my sister's son & my "BoyBoy"( nickname) Yeah I spoiled him terribly 😂😂😂😂
I'm 62 years old and every since I was a kid I've always loved the drums and wanted to learn how to play them but unfortunately doing my time grown-up my parents couldn't afford it and my amazing father died when I was 16 years old so things was a little tough on the household going forward but I must say again I love seeing people play the drums. I like the young lady called The Pocket Queen also she's amazing as with all you guys that play the drums. God bless all my talented sister and brothers 🙏🏾
Well I'll be! That was the hardest groove I've had the pleasure of listening to in a minute! This guy is really creative and some of his fills are so original. Timing is perfect and hes fast with power! I'm was rewinding and rewinding over and over just to try and comprehend where he was getting those fills at. Like he had another kit or another rack with 3 or 4 more toms on it. Amazing. Thanks for sharing this my brother. Some top shelf skills this guy possess! Respect
These guys are not taking chance, their experts in their own field, this is super super professional display. All qualities displayed. Love it.. I'm inspired as a intermediate guitarist. Perfection perfection. 😍👌🇧🇼🇧🇼
VERY smart drummer!!!!! Gabe not only locks in, but does so without without sounding boring or like he's copying. Knows how to take his spaces AND let the groove breathe!!!!!! He's having fun, giving God the glory, AND is securing the future gigs through his playing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love the way they were looking at each other in one accord. As the drummer was feeling it the organ player was feeling it and the bass player plus the other guy beside the drummer. Worship on one accord. No one was trying to out do the other. They all were being led to worship. Amen!!
That was fye!!!!!! My GOD!!! MY Mom attended John P. Key's church in Charlotte when she was alive and man did I enjoy going home and attending those services. Loved this....
I must be a musician at heart because any time that I'm in this situation, I will ALWAYS be watching the band and not the vocalists. It irrationally bothers me that pretty much all of the spectators in view of the camera were focused entirely on the vocalists the entire time. That is absolutely not a knock on the vocalists, because they seem to be quite good here even though we can't hear them well, but more a knock on the audience because holy crap, how are they not noticing that the band damn near literally has smoke coming off of them from the fire they have created here???!
This is my favorite JPK band next to Cal and LaDells bands. I love chops don’t get me wrong, but the way Gabe naturally locks in musically with this band is everything. You can blaze across songs or you can be musical. Big ups 💪🏾
To the hardcore HipHop fans...this is real talent. Real musicians, that play (real) instruments. But y’all wanna high ticket prices to see rapper on stage spiting rhymes. This band is tight... every member amazing!
This entire video just walked me through almost my entire early christian walk. I remember at church and at the university where John P. See and Hezekiah Walker defined our choir sound. These men gave us some wonderful experiences in the Holy Ghost. Thank God they heeded God's call into ministry.
First off, this Gabr on set reminds of the ole school Ladel Abrams with today's new style of playing added. There are alot of drummers blaze all the way through a set without complementing the other musicians and I like that his placement phrasing is so different. I'm also looking at the video and the organ/aux player is holding everything down and shows that with the right people all, a 3pc band can absolutely sound full enough to bring the energy
I would really like to hear Eric Moore II playing behind John P Kee. Probably would never happen, but that’s me being a drummer thinking out loud 😁😁😁😁😁
We should all just buy cardboard boxes with triggers on em instead of spending money on drum shells haha. We love that cardboard tone. I need headphones
Bro at the transition you ⏸ the vid and I realized I was holding my breath 🤣 4sure would have passed out had you not hit the rewin! Dude killed that switch up.
Nobody is talking about the guy playing the organ. That guy is killing it too. 👏
He's playing a synthesiser as well, set on top of the organ‼️
Two/three keyboards for hand, and a keyboard for my feet are enough for me.
Straight FACTS!! the guy on Organ going through those keys like someone going through them gears on a Peterbilt truck🔥🔥👌.
Right he can play 😃
The fact he playing in slides!
Aswrrr!!
John P Kee finds drummers like Ohio State finds running backs. 😐😑😂 That band was KILLIN!!!
That’s because his son Chris Kee is a drummer.
Go Bucks!!
Killin is right. Only thing better is Mississippi Mass Choir. This is a path this is a door opening
Those drums are dead because he's killing them. He's awesome.
Get a like just cause Ohio state football was mentioned
John P Kee always kept top notch drummers! Jeff Davis, Ladell Abrams, Calvin Rodgers, Chris Kee, CJ Thompson, Devin “Stixx” Taylor, and Gabe Bennett. His band has always been funky and tight!
That’s correct
And Jimmy Stixx played with him also
📠
🔥🔥🔥
Big facts 💪🏽💪🏽 always been on point

I miss hearing gospel music and playing like this! BRING IT BACK LORD! PLEASE!
When did it leave? It's right here!
If you've never heard of Cory Henry, I envy you. You're in for a treat. =)
Naw y'all. Mainstream gospel like this ain't a thing anymore. These mainstream artists ever since Mary Mary, Kirk (after the Rebirth album), Todd Delaney, etc all wanna fit in with the top 40's or CCM crowd. THIS type of gospel is now the ole skool of gospel music 😭😭😭
Yeah yeah, keep watching it and listening, you gonna get back to it.
In all truth, this kind of music God did not authorize in praise and worship in the New Testament church. Scripture tells us to sing...not play and sing.
The timing, the transitions of the Drummer was OTHER WORLDLY 🌎. He definitely let the Spirit use him!!!
Yeah he felt it in his shondo.
For real that’s a supernatural flow and talent
Practice!
Absolutely, that was the Spirit of Rhythm
He’s no larnell Lewis
Drummer in a league by himself! Band is jelled! John P Kee is a legend, that choir is heavenly.
Brother have they been to Florida yet?
@Glenville Holmes .....Thank you bruh on behalf of my family 🤎 Gabe Bennett is my sister's son (drummer)
@@yvettewilliams4893here's a suggestion, let him sign everything you own now that you have him close.
Grabbed that new stick like he was pulling a sword out of the sheath!
😂😂😂
Took me out!!!
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣I’m telling yah!!
Drums killing, but bass, keys, and organ are 🔥 too! Whew!
Yessss they was keeping up with the brotha 🔥 like it was nobodies business 🤣 ❣❣❣❣
I'm saying... That whole corner was fire!
FACTS!!!!! DUDE has that Leslie hollering for sho!!!!
This drummer played every verse in every chapter on point wow
LOL
😂
I’m a worship drummer so I’m always checking out the drums/percussion, but that cat on the organ/keys is straight slaying!!!!
Yesss watch out for Sean Alexander
I am beyond worried about the world we live in when 60+ people actually “disliked” this video????! I was not only blown away by the musical talent, but caught the Holy Spirit as well. GOOSEBUMPS BABY!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
what is there to dislike.... man I am straight teacher of the word Pastor... and at 58 years old I'm getting down praising the Lord with these guys....
As a former drummer in the church years ago, this brought me GREAT joy!!! 🥺❤️❤️❤️❤️
Word
Wow, that is awesome.
This medley just walked all the way through my childhood and into my adulthood. John P Kee has always kept the tightest band and the hottest concerts. Much respect to him for always staying true to that and yes this whole band is blazzin and the transitions make me wanna throw this phone!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Exactly
Ha
those guys are so talented. I wish all people around the world just play music and avoid conflicts.
They could if there weren’t evil governments - smh!!!
We would if y'all would stay out of our business
Drummer is sick with it!
Gabe’s got more pocket than a billiard table! Seriously that transition was so slick, love how he was like yeah fella’s, that just happened! Cool hey? Surprised the whole band didn’t catch fire it was that lit. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@Luke Brown.....Thank you so much bruh for that compliment on behalf of my family 🤎 Gabe is my sister's son & my "BoyBoy"( nickname) Yeah I spoiled him terribly 😂😂😂😂
I know this vid was about drums BUT geesh the BASSSSSSSIST TONE AND FEEL!
That’s Tony Russell
dude the passion this guy plays with is off the charts love it
The guy playing organ, also plays auxiliaries. He is actually doing all in this video.
He's one of those few players who makes playing aux look fun
@@joshjones9749 agreed
Sean Alexander is a beasttt💯
Man I caught that too 🔥🔥🔥
@@Jonotheproducer man, that was sick. That's the first time I've seen him do that, that's crazy. I respect dude even more
That's one of the tightest sounds from a 3 piece you're gonna hear. They in each others space jus killin it!!!
Hello George… How are you doing?
4 piece dude. I play on a 3 piece without any high toms
The whole band is locked in...🔥
Facts 💯
fellow musician I see? cause heck yeah that band is locked in! the most locked I ever seen! make me wanna run it back a few times.
10:39 - that petal tapping is immaculate. Blessing young king🙏🏾🙏🏾
That room was live! Great arrangement. Choir and band locked.
I'm 62 years old and every since I was a kid I've always loved the drums and wanted to learn how to play them but unfortunately doing my time grown-up my parents couldn't afford it and my amazing father died when I was 16 years old so things was a little tough on the household going forward but I must say again I love seeing people play the drums. I like the young lady called The Pocket Queen also she's amazing as with all you guys that play the drums. God bless all my talented sister and brothers 🙏🏾
Gabe Is one of a kind, his playing style is just out of this world
If a church existed like this when I was a Kid I would've been there every day !! That's too much fun !!
Nah see, this, exactly why, l don't , ",Down", y'all folks .... THANK GOD HE GAVE THIS TO ME
🤣
For real most churches I've played are nothing like this
The drummer is a BEAST!!! Seeing John P Lee still doing his thang....under the anointing...LAWD TODAY!!! Makes me miss this part....
That's gabe Bennett
Isn't it funny how the music and soul was the only thing real in the church? I miss it too.
Well I'll be! That was the hardest groove I've had the pleasure of listening to in a minute! This guy is really creative and some of his fills are so original. Timing is perfect and hes fast with power! I'm was rewinding and rewinding over and over just to try and comprehend where he was getting those fills at.

Fillin' like a dentist
These guys are not taking chance, their experts in their own field, this is super super professional display. All qualities displayed. Love it.. I'm inspired as a intermediate guitarist. Perfection perfection. 😍👌🇧🇼🇧🇼
Salute to the drummer... wonderful collaboration to the band as a whole
This is excellent
Can’t lie Gabe brings it every time salute to him
SICK!!!! His attention to details is stunning!!!!!
11:13 that transition of the broken stick was perfect too.
Pocket, tempo, timed slaps and having fun! Entire band bodied this!! Sheesh
This drummer is 🔥 one of the best transitions skills I’ve EVER seen.
Lol the way he switched out his stick was by far the smoothest thing I’ve seen to date
VERY smart drummer!!!!! Gabe not only locks in, but does so without without sounding boring or like he's copying. Knows how to take his spaces AND let the groove breathe!!!!!! He's having fun, giving God the glory, AND is securing the future gigs through his playing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love the way they were looking at each other in one accord. As the drummer was feeling it the organ player was feeling it and the bass player plus the other guy beside the drummer. Worship on one accord. No one was trying to out do the other. They all were being led to worship. Amen!!
Hello Jamara… How are you doing?
The chemistry was cray......zee
Singers & band mates were lookin' over like "God damn this is a bad boy!" Stellar performance by the drummer. 😳👏🔥🔥🔥
No they were looking like GOD DEN BLESSED this dude
The WHOLE Ghost was active and alive and salting the Earth. I love it!
Absolutely incredible!!! And I’m including everyone !!! Drummer , Organ , Bass player , singers etc !!! And it’s all in the glory of God ! 🙏🏼❤️
This man done had a whole entire fit on these drums, the man is straight walking a dog on the organ, I’m really enjoying this JP Kee!!!!
Hello Teresa…. How are you doing?
Yo.. Josh is hilarious. When he said hold on and walked away, I really thought he was about to hop on his kit and try that lick. Lol.
Gabe Bennett is a beast. I actually lost count. Lord have mercy.
WhatsApp bruh
If he make it, He taking that Baltimore sound with him. Gabe is a beast!!!
Literally the BEST gospel music band out there. No cap!
That was fye!!!!!! My GOD!!! MY Mom attended John P. Key's church in Charlotte when she was alive and man did I enjoy going home and attending those services. Loved this....
He was feeling that. He might as well be singing up there with the choir. That was straight fire
I must be a musician at heart because any time that I'm in this situation, I will ALWAYS be watching the band and not the vocalists. It irrationally bothers me that pretty much all of the spectators in view of the camera were focused entirely on the vocalists the entire time.

I love those triplet fills he was doing, and the pauses on the fills on the snare was sweet
The Holy Spirit took those sticks 😇 and played those drums!
The drummers talent is matchless 🔥
This is my favorite JPK band next to Cal and LaDells bands. I love chops don’t get me wrong, but the way Gabe naturally locks in musically with this band is everything. You can blaze across songs or you can be musical. Big ups 💪🏾
I agree. The transition was FLAWLESS, crisp, perfection!!
3:54… I literally was about to pause but you did first… yes sir I agree. That’s transition was RIDICULOUS🤦🏿♂️😐🥲🥲🥲
I'm confused. Should I be amazed or devastated. Let me go practice. I have errors that need to be fixed 😂😂😂
I feel the same way 🤣🤣🤣
Gabe a different breed. Time to practice indeed
This dude brings tears to my eyes. Awesome 👌 👏 👍 Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
I’m glad that notion that CJ was irreplaceable on kit is gone, Gabe literally been killing since his first gig for John P Kee
They say that every drummer John p Lee gets also don’t forget Devon played after CJ
Pastor Kee has had a stable of cold drummers. Let's not forget Jeff Davis, Calvin Rodgers, Ladell...
I can't front, I felt like that for a while. But I gained a whole new level of appreciation for Gabe after this video.
He's not close to CJ
@@brianrichards689 different style
This whole band is KILLIN 😱😱😱
I want to hear a conversation with Lacey, Josiah, and Gabe on drums
Damn🔥🔥🔥... This is alive😄😍😍
Yes sir they live! 🔥
They'll sound foreign to me
If you want violence in drum form, just say that lol
Gabe will smash all them
This video, that drummer, the music, the joy…
Wow just wow 🤩 🙏🏼
To the hardcore HipHop fans...this is real talent. Real musicians, that play (real) instruments. But y’all wanna high ticket prices to see rapper on stage spiting rhymes. This band is tight... every member amazing!
I spoke with Gabe when they was in NC. He said he was changing the way he playing and the man wasn’t lying. Definitely a Gabe fan 💪🏾
yoooooo that's crazy how somebody can drum like that. When I get my drums imma practice to get better.
That’s how you do it
This video should be titled “The drummer featuring John P Kee and nem”. Lol
whenever you guest drummer comes out, you know somebody KILLIN'!
WOW!!!!!!The drummer, keyboard player ..the entire band is AWESOME.....Keep Praising HIM
I had an opportunity to see Uncle John and his band a few years ago! They are amazing!!💚💚
Good praise! Yes the band made is the icing on the cake!
Choir and musicians killing it😍
Grooviest church band ever. So good
💯🙏🏻💯
Gabe is a drummer very aware of the space he leaves.
Space in music is subtle yet so impactful!
Exactly! He’s just too nice
What’s gave last name he nasty bro
@@Eyikon Gabe Bennett
This man was awesome. Complete beast mode on the skins. Highly skilled dude.
The Grove got me banging in my soul♥️💪😇
I was never in band, but I ran track to the marching band, and that's s one-man army right there...setting, at least, a thousand to flight!!!
Found John p Kee in 1993. This man is legendary 💯
This entire video just walked me through almost my entire early christian walk. I remember at church and at the university where John P. See and Hezekiah Walker defined our choir sound. These men gave us some wonderful experiences in the Holy Ghost. Thank God they heeded God's call into ministry.
I wouldn't doubt it that one of these days churches not chicken will have bigger choirs and bands that going to church will became a concert.
No way he’s the guest drummer! He hit every lick just right! That’s crazyyyy🔥🔥🔥
Mahn that transition was lit, I mean madt... WooW
First off, this Gabr on set reminds of the ole school Ladel Abrams with today's new style of playing added. There are alot of drummers blaze all the way through a set without complementing the other musicians and I like that his placement phrasing is so different.

I was never into drums……until now!!!! This drummer is amazing!!!!
Man they are absolutely killing it. This man is a slayer on the drums.
I would really like to hear Eric Moore II playing behind John P Kee. Probably would never happen, but that’s me being a drummer thinking out loud 😁😁😁😁😁
I hear you bruh. Eric can play 😆
Man these transactions are crazy good and gabe is killing it I love it when the whole band is locked but I love it
We should all just buy cardboard boxes with triggers on em instead of spending money on drum shells haha. We love that cardboard tone. I need headphones
I love seen you enjoying with them enjoying. I’m tears ❤️ God Bless all of you. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻
Hello Dubby… How are you doing?
I just drove to church after watching this man play drums😆 great content Joshua 👏
Hello Norman… How are you doing?
They knew the assignment and made an A+
I watch this daily and the only word I have for this Band is, "ummmmmmmm"..........
Whoa 🤯! Just blown away, my brain 🧠 upside down! The band is amazing 🤩! Drummer is beyond an unknown dimension! In other words, craziness!
John P. Lee notorious for AMAZING musicians.
@Joshua, you facial expressions are giving me LIFE!!! So proud of you for continuing your channel journey. Don't quit, keep going, you will WIN!!!!
That’s nothing but the HOLY SPIRIT right there!!🙏🏽🙏🏽✊🏾🎼🥁
I wish that drum and the drummer long life🙏🙏💯💯
This dude is spectacular and the band is very tight . I enjoyed this very much thank you.
I'm so amazed at these guys. Hours and hours of dedication to master their craft.
The most annointed drummer I ever met
Gabe’s a cool, humbled cat. I had to pleasure of meeting him when John P. Kee came to town months ago.
He's anointed to play.. I love to see it!!!
I clicked so fast bro! They are always on point 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
Bro at the transition you ⏸ the vid and I realized I was holding my breath 🤣 4sure would have passed out had you not hit the rewin! Dude killed that switch up.
