Child Prodigy: Justin Wilson II Is The Best 4-Year Old Drummer On Planet Earth

Jan 28, 2019

Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce you to the viral sensation and best child drummer I have ever seen Justin Wilson II. Or as his instagram followers know him as, @babyboydrummer. While many children work hard to master basic skills such as counting to 10 and not pooping their pants, Wilson hits the skins like a seasoned professional. The legend began when his parents discovered at 4 months old he could match pitch to a 15 month-old child. The rest is history and babyboydrummers’ following extends to a Youtube channel, Instagram page and website.

A couple things. I am a drummer and have been playing drums since I was about 4-5 years old. I would sit in my parents kitchen and hit pots and pans with wooden spoons, eventually my parents got annoyed and got me a mini set of drums. My parents will agree, my drumming was no where near what Justin Wilson is laying down. He’s playing off time, dropping some double and triple kicks. My mind is blown.Recently he was introduced him to a 6-year old bass player who rocks pretty hard and they had quite the jam session online.

Here are a bunch more of Wilsons’ videos, I could watch this all day. The future of music is in good hands.
