Dude I see you everywhere typing the same thing

He play for the different.for have own style.i like lots to play

The ORIGINAL is actually from Jungle Jazz by Kool and The Gang. Listen right at the beginning. Listen to Jungle JAZZ, not Jungle Boogie.

The link to the gear that was used is in the description. It is a Paiste 22 inch Signature Dark Energy Ride Mk I Cymbal.

@@si1995gtnupe1997 Thanks 👍

You can buy a pants with pocket but few drummers have pants and no pocket

😊👍

Pockets so deep they came out of a 2005 Hot Topic!

I recognized him here from the way he tilts his kit forward. Great performance on SNL.

Exactly. Alot of people don't understand this.

I mean in hip-hop drumming that kinda the vibe we shoot for, on time but slightly not.

it’s so as to mimic an unquantized drum machine or an out of time sample. its slightly “off the grid” if that makes sense. it sounds super cool with hip hop as rappers oftentimes ride a little behind or ahead of the beat and the juxtaposition of two “out of time” sounds is super tasty, kinda like the more “dissonant” chords of jazz pianists like thelonious monk but in a more rhythmic context. it’s definitely unique, and i can understand why it’s off putting to some people but i personally love it lol.

@@Asimoori i tried to expound on your already adequate explanation lol but you captured it perfectly in my opinion

Cringe away.

Do you feel compelled ro do everything everyone on RU-vid tells you to do? It's not for everybody.

He's not a machine, and neither are you. He plays fine.

Nobody has a perfect tempo! we´re humans!

In Interviews he had explained its just to create a look that people will remember

@@rezzie17 so he priored the look before the natural anatomic movement to drumming?

In many ways yes. He says as much in the beginning of the interview. But ultimately if the set up didn’t work for him, I’m sure he would not have kept using it. I’m sure it would be a challenge for me to play this configuration, but it’s not for me and that is it’s beauty. The lesson here is find your own path to distinctiveness.

​@@RA2Music I think that the look for a setup is subjective, you can do whatever you want aesthetically. But sacrifice the ergonometric movement of the hand is more objective. And only seeing that toms, it hurt my eyes. Sorry I cant understand him, just to call the attention is not enough
