There used to be a day when all the drummer was allowed to do was keep time. However, its players like this who remind you of what the full capacity of this instrument is. CJ Thompson is a lethal combination of speed, power, precision, and rudimentary.
@@jjdiddle7150 plus…all I’ve every played is K’s. They sound darker. These are way too bright sounding. K’s would have gotten washed out by all the other sounds because they’re so dark. They’re great but not very good in a gospel setting(I’m also an audio engineer).
It’s been years now that I have been watching this set and I’m constantly inspired that CJ plays something different & brings something fresh every time.
CJ comes from an amazing musical legacy and it is evident in his unique creativity. His Dad is Cedric Thomas and his Mom Vocal Beast Lejuene... when you've already got that kind of blood running through your veins added to your own desire passion and drive....here is the result. He never ceases to amaze me!! Ya Dude JGENT
They got that “take ya time” tempo and it’s A-MAZING ❗️This group right here has THEE best chemistry of anybody that plays this set, and ADD Chris Kee to the mix 😎👌🏽
JPK's is one of the best gospel band I know of, you have to be Extraordinaire creative to sit in. I really don't know what to say about CJ Thompson. Love from Nigeria
You gotta be high are don't know anybetter! The greatest of all times, when you were born and raised at? it can't be USA,; the greatest of all time (just say no to drugs and alcohol you tripping)
Not gone cap I’ve watch cj Thompson so watch I swear he not even playing fr on this one he so laid back and u can tell from his pocket and his chop if y’all really know and watch CJ but no doubt still went crazy 🤟🏾🔥✅
o nível de musicalidade é muito alto dos americanos, que absurdo esse batera toca eu não canso de assistir, eu acompanho o CJ Thompson a uns 5 anos, muito top e muito criativo, incrível!!!
Everyone who’s played for John recently is good but CJ is different! Y’all also have to understand the background of why he played with John so well! He’s been around them since he was a child. Around Donald Lawrence musicians as well. Lol CJ been playing live recordings since a child! Type in “Monique Walker crazy praise” Also “Kim Person praise break”
@@chuckshreds3108 yea his mom sang with Donald Lawrence and tri city. His dad played keys for them. Also the last song on this video, Cj mom led it on the actual album.
Omg that’s just pure talent i just don’t understand why there are so many views not more likes and subscribers to your channel cuz this is BAD love good music!
@@rasharbanks1392 Yessir! Gabe definitely holds it down. He takes it to another level each time he plays too. Inspired by all three of em for sure! 😉🙌🏾
