J--_rod, you are ONE of the best "in the pocket" drummers I have ever listen to. You play so EFFERTLESSLY and I enjoy watching your videos. I'm just learning at the age 55. I do make beats but you have made me want to learn the drums. Thanks for the inspiration.... May God keep blessing you and anointing you.
Without a Doubt my Favourite drummer on here. So clean. So precise. So in the pocket. And his sticks are awesome too. Mr. J.Rod; keep up the FANTASTIC work. Love all that is done here #sub4lyfe
OMD!! Literally ever video, his licks just keep getting better and its disgustingly good Bro. Let me not forget about your tacks man OMD, literally i was listenign to better stronger in my car and the bass was so good that my car started shaking Bro keep up the good work and God will deliver you into great places with your talent Love you J-Rod
The clarity and accuracy of every note n tone you are going for is jusy out of this would! Be it a cow bell, ride, stack it just sounds right on time and place, I bow
Many elements of this arrangement reminded me instantly of the legendary Isaac Hayes rendition (historical classic) "Walk On By." As I always say: Chops gives you thrills. Pocket pays the bills. Truly a superb job. A real drummer knows when to lay pocket along with complementing the arrangement with style, subtlety, smoothness and silkyness. To hear this Gentleman play tells me he listens meticulously where the foundation doesn't get in the way of the entire ensemble. This is the my 1st Comment yet from other tracks I checked out Mr. Sullivan is consistent!! Chops has its place, yet imagine if Mr. Sullivan's approach was to play every 32nd/64th note throughout the entire joint...He'd be no different than the plethora of drummers whose sole mission is to chop away on everything, regardless. Simplicity is the most difficult to master. Allowing any music genre to "breathe" clean air versus smoke inhalation will pay your bills with the greatest of ease for as long as you want, for you will be hired over and over again and again by the same people as long as they're in the industry. I say this because I am a true example of the content that's within this Comment! Mr. Sullivan you will conquer the goals manifested by the quality of drumming you continue to execute. Congratulations. Continue to maintain the K.I.S.S. principles and concepts.💯🎧🎶🎵🎉🎊☺️😊🌞😃🌞💸💵🙏🏿🙏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏🏻🙏
J-rod I’m always a fan of you when you did live arrangement with you just playing keys bass and drums at the same time up to now got a lot better you are my favorite drum inspiration and a motivation to me once again you my favorite drummer
Dude you are insane like tips to an inspiring drummer like me what did you practice to get this good I feel like I have a hit a wall and play only as good as the Christian contemporary I play at church. What are some tips that I can do to play like you one day?
...Again, without words, you are very blessed, very talented, I wish the best for you bro. I don't see any tags on those batter heads, maybe Remo Emperor colortones? Your drums and cymbals sound amazing, great mixing job, amazing production all the way through.
J I definitely enjoyed this video. Im from Atlanta and checked out your site. When I return a few lessons are on the menu. Keep up the Work. Toms sound great.
