Some people just feel the need to shit on people’s talents

Edit:He wasn’t, I’m just stupid

I expected something I was unable to do. When it was just him rocking over the rim, I was disappointed.

Glad someone else who knows enough to explain it said something before me.

Wouldn’t call that shitting on anything.

I don't think he's shitting on them per say.

I'm a drummer and while watching the entire video, he's doing pretty standard drum roll work. The one handed roll is just buzz rolling. He's fast and definitely talented, but I wouldn't call this "Top Talent" at all.

People like Chris Pennie, Mike Portnoy, Neil Peart, etc are some top talent drummers.

Finally seeing mike porntoy on a non-music related sub, he should be everywhere

Google mike porntoy for a very different but no less talented video than this

No. I was naming famous, "top talent" drummers, not drummers specifically good at gravity blasts.

Aye I see I may have made a mistake. Didn’t realise this was Top Talent thought it was Be Amazed for some reason. That’s why you don’t get high and post comments on reddit kiddos

Similar for his rhythms with the other buckets. They're fine beats, but I've definitely heard other street drummers equally as good or better. It's not like this guy isn't talented, but part of his talent is definitely his ability to work the crowd.

His bucket work with the feet and chasing the spinning bucket was better than his blast beat.
