It’s funny how things always come full circle with slight variations. Anyone who knows the history of American Bluegrass and country music knows that it’s a fusion of European folk music and instruments mixed with African folk music and instruments (think banjo). If it wasn’t for blacks and whites influencing each other we wouldn’t have bluegrass, country or even rock n roll. Love the music keep up the good work. This is what America should be all about.
Yeah bro there's a lot of blues in country.
Well said 🙏
irish came to america, so bluegrass was born. ironically, the americans are blamed for slavery, and although our forefathers did buy people, a bad thing, the true baddies was England, who profited immensely. Fact. Also we have multiple migration of slaves to the south, more than other areas, so when the Civil War ended (what's a civil war?...) blacks were freed, went north to Brooklyn, to Chicago, and DC, and had to find work, and that work was on the railroad, it was in Appalachia / Kentucky, and headed west. It's the most interesting part of American history if you as me.
Look up the term _rock 'n roll_ . It came from the African-American community as slang for _sex_ --that subject was "taboo" for white people. I think the early days of recording in the US, up until Elvis in 1954, were the equivalent of the European middle ages, but our "musical renaissance" didn't *truly* start until The Beatles hit America.
I totally agree. Most of America is in the same boat
I could listen to that woman all day. Her vocals, wow!!!
Yes indeed
I love this group beyond words and could listen to her nonstop....
Her vocals are amazing!!
amazin
@john hebberd listen to Hayde "Wayfaring Stranger" ua-cam.com/video/XWIaeQFcbYg/v-deo.html then you can weep.
What rock have I been under, lord this music is fantastic.
I want a gangstagrass tshirt that says: STRAIGHT OUTTA the HOLLERHOOD. This is such genius music--can't get enough. Please come to colorado!!!
They have been several times! I've seen them twice in Denver and once in Vail. It's been about 3 yrs though... I sure could use another live dose!!
I love Gangstagrass - “American Music” is one of my favorites. They haven’t gotten half of the attention they deserve. It’s all american music - so proud.
This might be my favorite Gangstergrass cut!!!!!
This gives me hope and makes me proud to be an American Great music
Thank you for saying what I was thinkin'. Love to All Musicians who somehow let US know we'll be ok.
Exactly!
Never n my wildest dreams would i have thought that u could mix these musics n make them sound good but damn i like it. Its p.b. n jelly for the soul yummm
P.ng & Jelly For the Soul...What a perfect quote.
It's so refreshing to hear real music by talented musicians.
I love the juxtaposition of voices and lyrical content. This will be played by me on whatever stereo is in my possession till my dying day. Her voice is beautifully haunting....
I love her voice
Words cannot describe how beautiful this music is. Thank you.
I don’t know how I ended up at this video tonight, but I’m glad I did. Beautiful. Stunning. The woman’s voice is pure and soulful. Her instrumental skill on that thing I’ve never seen is impressive and the banjo and guitar multiply the sound magic. The rhythm and flow of the rappers is phenomenal. These elements put together is perfection. Well done!!!
"The thing" is called a Dobro ,a type of resonator guitar used often in country and bluegrass music, the female singer/Dobro player is Landry McMeans and I believe she is no longer with Gangstagrass ,I absolutely agree with your assessment of her vocal and instrumental skill.
well....this is ALL kinds of good isnt it? wow!! passed the goosebump test and exceeded it!!!
Me being from Appalachian mountians never thought I'd here bluegrass and hip hop mixed I like😁
They have revitalized my love of music! I first heard their sound from the theme of "Justified", and I am very glad I searched them out. Modern music..you get sick of any given song after the third time...but THIS, THIS has SO MUCH IN IT that it will endure, and be played by me..
Same thing I did.
Justified brings me here too.
As good as this is, see them live. One of the best shows you'll ever see.
Where the hell do they live???
I've listened to probably 10 Gangstagrass songs today and never once thought about clicking any of my favorites on the right side of the screen (PC) or the skip button. Freaking really great American music!
So true!
so beautiful to see ppl from 2 totally different cultures come together and write badass music like that. only in America
@Dimitris Damilos Hahahahahah, absolutely fucking barbaric.
No kidding! It's crazy how it just flows together. I'm no rap fan by any means, but holy shit...I love this.
Gregory Guzman 🇬🇧 been at it for years my man
Gregory Guzman
Nope, not only in America...
LMAO
WAIT! I'm confused! What you are saying is that people born in the same hospital, live in the same zip-code, graduated the same high school, attend the same church, work in the same Walmart, vote at the same polling place, celebrate Independence Day on the same block, for 35 years, are "different cultures"! Because one's eyes are blue and the other's brown? MAN! REALLY!
Sweet as honey. Soft as butter. Smooth as silk.
I don't know how you all melded this together like this but--- well done. Well done.
this band is a hidden treasure. should have 10 million likes.
I love hip hop and bluegrass music and I am so glad I found y'all 💕
Philly reppin... Thank you.. luv ur music
This. Is. FIRE.
I was born 1960 rock n roll and country all my life I shared this with my friends we all agree gangstagrass is awesome
Your music speaks to my soul..
Gangsta grass is legendary
An absolutely amazing voice.
This one gave me goose bumps. You hit it right on the head. They are trying to incite hate between us to keep us weak and distracted. We won't let them win. You guys are amazing. I just found out about you a couple days ago and I'm so glad I did. You guys make real music with an actual message. You are very quickly becoming my favorite band. Thank you and God bless you all and your fans.
ME TOO! Where have I been all their lives?? I feel like I've discovered one of my favorites, too! Well said!
My new favorite band :)
And I have just gotten back home after 6 years away and found this. It touched my heart deeply
And you'll never need to leave the fam - the new album is dope (and a Billboard Bluegrass Chart topper - talk about breaking barriers!)
Best part about "Justified" was discovering Gangstagrass!
Better late than never.
They are amazing!
Great music l love Gangstergrass
I am in love with your guy's music. I tell every single person I know to listen.
You are amazing. Absolutely fantastic. Unique. Original. Wonderful. Thank you for existing.
Proud Ecuadorian American I speak English and Spanish having been adopted and grown up in a small town in central Pennsylvania this is by far the best genre of songs that describes how it is having grown up in the mountains of Central PA. Brings a tear to my eye I know wherever I go I will always take a piece of where I grew up with thank you for everything I learned during those years.
Thank you! This moves me and brings me joy. What a powerful and creative combination of tallent.
Finally!! FINALLY!!! Real, and talented musicians! Thank you!! 👍🏼👍🏼
I can’t say enough how much I love the mix ...I need more music from u guys!!!! ♥️♥️♥️
i love how to different styles actually can coexist. who'd think that rap and bluegrass together would sound so good. most wouldn't but, the fact is there both similar at the roots. rap and blue grass both manly sing about home life and ones self experience. so its fitting to see these to genres come together like this.
what i like about this kind of music is there is a story there but there is no swearing, I have respect for a group of people who can put music together like this with out swearing every other word. keep up the good work guys.
Simply freaking awesome,, woman ya got my heart girl
Omg... I am from Delco and represent Philly....I get goose bumps/ chicken skin listening to this... BOMB SHIT... PHILLY REPRESENT.... go Eagles go 6ers go flyer... Phillies.... BROTHERLYLOVE #USALANDOFTHEFREE #ONELOVE #PHILLYLOVE

I just found out about this group and I love it. Can't get enough of this unique sound. I grew up listening to bluegrass greats Bill Monroe, flat and Scruggs . And also public enemy, Eric B and rakim.. so this is too cool to mix the 2.
