J Dilla beats are know for their laid by sluggish drum patterns. I tired my best to emulate his iconic drum style but in my own creative way! Give it a try and let me know in the comments how it went! ✌🏽

This video was filmed, edited, engineered, mixed, mastered, and produced in its entirety by Kenneth Benson.
Filmed and recorded in Dallas, TX USA.
This is a 100% acoustically recorded and mixed performance: no drum replacement or triggering was used. I also remade the track as well.
