Yeah, these guys r da truth... when you here them live, it's even better. wat makes then gud musicians is there humblness, they are so down to earth musicians. and the organist is a beast to..whew.. Doug Jones
u nice dawg on the set take care and b blessed never forget to God be the Glory for the things he has done now and the best he has to come for your life take care Lil drummer boi
Playing the cymbals in this fashion helps keep the energy high in the service. If you've never been to a church like this then you won't understand what you're hearing.
man u are really good man, i have to say that i am going to keep an eye out for you for real man but keep up the good work and keep doing your thang man
Yo both my cuzins there are sick (Nick and Chris) They even sicker now and it's barely been a year or so. And trust me fellas nick can keep time with the HH's when he feels like it, but it really depends on what the song calls for.
You'd be wrong in that assumption. Russel Batiste Jr.(Funky Meters, PBS) employs the same style, but knows how to keep time, and feel. If you lose track of time and feel in a fill, aka stray away from the groove, then you're also losing the sway of the crowd. Another drummer to look into who would agree is JD Blair.
Everyone knows how sick Nick is. I want to know, who was on the rodes? Is that Chris Rock on the bass? LOL. I'm just playing. I read that the bass player is Nick's brother and the organist is Nick's mom. What are there names?
Not to sound like and ad but Nick got his start on drummerworld and from there he's just become the new prodigy. First Thomas pridgen then Tony Royster now Nick Smith. I'm on the lookout for Brian Goddette (11) too.
This is "praise" music it's primary purpose to fuel the "spirit" of the worship service. The preacher is closing his sermon referred to as the "hoop" a rhythmic cadence accented by the musicians. Notice ALL the musicians focus on the preacher, because this is improvised each sermon. You'll see the organist give the other two instructions because they are moving to the altar call selection. This isn't entertainment it's worship.
Oh yeah, for yall who dont know LOL, His name IS Nicholas Smith, but anyone who knows him, knows he has ALL them nicknames as nick, nate, and mark, lol dont ask, ... so I understand why is gets confused, but Lamont told alot of people call him by those names, but just keep nick lol... plus anyone like nick and chris, the Kid prodigies of the LA area are always going to have all kinds of nick names... much love to yall ...
Don't Put yo Self down we all have stuff that we have to perfect in drumming you don't know this Nick is good on the drums but he know that he might have to work on one thing thats when you have to say even though I am good I have to get better everyday and that makes you a great musician just like Nick smith
ok Catalyst so basically you think what you think that is good, what else do you have to say that is of any intelligence, just because he has mad power, does not mean he cannot play softer or with less licks, so chill out bud. NICK God bless play from where he put his blessing in your heart and your soul. P.S: I am still practicing man, speed and accuracy its alot of work. Take Care.
sooooo much talent!!! I play in my church but we don't play this kind of music I wish we did though so much soul for the lord!
I LOVE THE TALENT OF THIS KID. PLEASE KEEP PRACTICE ! YOU HAVE EVERYTHING TO BE A GREAT DRUMMER! GOD BLESS from LA!
