Man, you can pull the trigger on that snare and the rim shot / blocks combo at 3:15 is stellar. Have you ever thought of multiple camera views, so we can see other elements, like your foot work?
Excellent solo drumming but it wasn't inside the groove. You played on top of the song and not in it. Funk is simple not busy. Don't paint a rose blue when it was already red and finished. James would have fired you for playing too much. He showed us how to play the rest as loud as the notes. Less, if done right, is funkier. I still give you your respect as being a person who can solo on drums..
James wouldn't have fired him just tell him to slow it down a little... James like to control people that can play better than him....An ego thing, you know.
Dude, that's some good drumming right there. Very well done. Don't mind the idiot telling you James Brown would fire you. Let's see him throw down the same chops you just did.
