hey guys this is nick smith.. im producing now an i have an artist im workin with type n celeberdee an you will c both studio footage an the final version of the song
wicked sick but he needs a splash symbol of some kind so he doesn't have to keep using open high-hat, he uses it like a symbol and i think its a terrible sound. All around wicked vid tho this guy has some serious talent
WOOOOO theres some heat in this shit! Lets face it ...hes a great drummer and he will probably get far, he has perfect rhythm and has good technique , he has the perfect fundamentals to be a successful drummer period.
home boy got skills i wonder how long youve been playin ive been playin for 2 years i havent come close to wat yu do God has blessed yu give him the glory fo ur talent
continued) Ive sat here and studied watching different guys,i'll say this,i have never heard a black drummer that wasn't good,it's not about that,but the gospel chops phenomenon is exactly that!one guy watches another guy watches another and so on,that shit gets old after awhile! I know some of you are like fuck you dude! but it's true! see for yourselves!
Go ahead and say i'm a racist bastard,that's not it at all,but i have watched,drummer after drummer after drummer and so on,all and i mean all the black drummers,who throw down like this kid do the same freekin licks,it's fun to watch,but see for yourself! everytime i watch,it's fun for a little bit then i'm like those are the same fucking licks royster,pridgen all those guys do,yeah,there bad ass but dude c'mon,it's the same shit! watch it enough and you'll see!
mate why dont you rewatch some gospelchops shit and try counting through some of the fills. do you have any idea how those fills are worked out? even if a lot of the rhythms are the same you should probably learn to appreciate different voicings and insane feel whilst kepping metronomic time. plus man, nick is like 10 years old here, so please excuse him for not pulling something completely new out the bag.
it appears you have the musical intellect of kenny g's small toe.
Hell yeah Nick Smith is the truth!! And this is to anyone that is critcizing him or saying he needs to slow down; he is actually not going too fast or adding to many notes AT ALL. If you listen to what the keyboard player is playing, you can see the way Nick fits in his fills. He keeps everything in the vein of the song, which I think is actually just 4/4, but he is good as hell so he is able to understand the music on another level and play inside the rythym like that, and stil come bac onthe 1
Anyone that criticizes this kid is full of themselves, do you have any endorsements... nation wide fame. NO you dont so shut the fuck up cuz you most likely aint shit.
im a drummer also but a female even though it doesnt make a difference but this kid does have talent but drumming fast and all that stuff is considered good like just since he can drum fast he is good but i think he needs to not slow down but sorta slow down but it was good for a young boy
For those of you who makin comments bout him bein a lil busy, I just have one thing to say. If you were 11yrs old and this good and you're in a practice/jam setting you would be playin like this too. You don't get disiciplined til you start playin more and have people there to guide u. if you were to hear him now you'd be shocked!
well actually good gospel drumming is about being in the for so the singers can always know where they are at and when you get an open opportunity hitting it quick and staying in the groove. It's not about the music it's about the words

For those of you who makin comments bout him bein a lil busy, I just have one thing to say. If you were 11yrs old and this good and you're in a practice/jam setting you would be playin like this too. You don't get disiciplined til you start playin more and have people there to guide u. if you were to hear him now you'd be shocked!
