Jun 23, 2020 by apost team

Shia Wilson is an incredibly talented drummer at only 21-months-old. She comes from a musical family. Her auntie, Sheléa Frazier, is a gifted musician who is mentored by Stevie Wonder. Shia is an adorable prodigy who loves playing the drums, especially to the cover song of Sheléa's new album, "Pretty World."

Shia's dad made this viral video of Shia playing to her favorite song. Smiling excitedly and ready to play the drums, Shia is a bright light in a troubled time and the happiness everyone needs right now. At the beginning, her dad is asking her what she wants to play. She happily answers: "Pretty World."

Shia starts playing this cover of her aunt's song and it's clear right away that she is no ordinary toddler. She is beating the drums in time to the music, not even looking at them. This little girl wearing headphones looks like a toddler but plays like a pro.

She even knows the lyrics to the song. "This is my jam" is written on the screen when the song starts. "I know all the lyrics" comes next, and it shows! Playing the drums and mouthing the words, tiny Shia is quite a little drummer.

Her dad even moved the camera to different angles to get better shots. One angle lets everyone see it happening from Shia's point of view. Her ability to play the drums and keep calm while being filmed is surprising for someone who is not even 2-years-old!

At 2:34, she leans into it with a solo leading to the close of the song. Her skill and composure are amazing. She knows what she's doing, and she does some serious drumming. As Shia begins her solo, "time for me to drive it" hits the screen. The toddler gets really excited and does some impromptu drumming. Dad adds some fantastic white cartoon "bang" effects when Shia hits a drum. Her performance is astounding.

This tiny drummer's performance goes viral in less than a month on the family's YouTube channel. Shia's cover of her aunt's song "Pretty World" is an astounding success on the internet. People can't stop chatting about it. The video of Shia's performance has almost 900,000 views already. Shia is doing what she loves and bringing a lot of attention to her auntie's new album at the same time.

It wouldn't be at all surprising if Shia continued drumming. The world will probably see a lot more of this talented toddler! Nobody should miss this incredible video. Let us know what you think of the young drummer's performance!
