I was going to refrain from commenting because I’m both a drummer and an organist…experience is the best teacher and although no one can take the talent you’re showing away experience will show that sometimes less is more. Just because you can chop and fill doesn’t mean you should. The organist was giving directions and you just breezed past it…experience will show you how to do and when to do, idk what you plans are as a musician is but one key skill is to be teachable and open and this shows you’re not there….yet if you want to be. From my experience I’ve played for many and I’ve played for few, played for known people and and unknown people and artists and one thing you don’t want to have in the music world or any world is a bad reputation. If you by chance read any of these comments I’d say take the good and work on the bad, you got the skills but build the personality. But other than that stay encouraged

Matthew 23:12 “For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

The way he responds to the comments tells you everything you need to know about him as a person. Lack of character or integrity. Be humble take the words of wisdom.... So many musicians who thought the same way and lost limbs or the ability to play and would give anything for that opportunity again. Stay humble my bul and watch the tough talk on the internet people can still find you talking that way..... Ya never out of reach

Kid been doing this for YEARS at this point yall so there’s absolutely no stopping him. The church song see nothing wrong. Nor does his own parents. To me this is totally disrespectful to the house of God. No taking what your playing serious when they trynna push a message is foul. Kid made a comment saying the church doesn’t pay him enough to play pocket…. So you think someone else gunna pay you more hearing you play like that? Kid is nuts…. Fr. I thought he woulda changed cuz i haven’t heard his name in a while but i see he grew to be the same. So sad fr… expected to see a lot more. Also, kid please do not try to comment talking hot. I’m a whole grown ass man and what you TRYNNA do is my career NOW. Oh… THEY PAY ME WHAT I TELL THEM TOO. IN AND OUT OF CHURCH 💯

I’m sorry but not sorry, it was fine and it just kept getting worse and worse….it was probably that tight beanie on your head that was keeping you out of pocket😂😂

As soon as he put the shades on I knew it was gonna be a problem.

Aaron drummer boy just keep doing you I love it other drummers don’t know crap we play joy and excitement they just jealous of your playing 😊

It’s one thing to chop and sound good and another to chop and mess up and lose time and lose the track 😂😂😂

The keyboard player looks so fed up 😂🤦🏾

You’re an amazing drummer but you do way too much. Your fills and chops are out of place. Pocket will trump chops every time. Quality over quantity, less is more, simplicity over intricate.

mane went from drummerboyaaron to.. idek🤣🤣 almost as if I recently discovered cuss words😂

It’s sad to watch such skill be a waste. His attitude and etiquette is that of a 10 year old boy throwing a tantrum. The sunglasses and hat and cockiness and grandstanding is a way of getting attention. He don’t care about God or that church at all…it’s about having all eyes on him. Someone needs to screenshot his responses and send them to the church and ask is this how you want your church respresented? This little boy is laughing in both the church’s face and God’s face. Maybe one day if and when he matures he will be an outstanding musician, but until then he is just a nuisance and an embarrassment to this church and to God. If you’re not gonna play for the church for the right reason, complain about the money, and be obnoxious, stop playing there. Let them find a real drummer who truly loves God and will play with the anointing and spirit.

Keep doing what you’re doing bro God bless with the gift that you have 🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾

Bruh, that was horrible. You need to find the pocket fast and stay off KZfaq.

Have you learned nothing over the past 4 years man? People have been telling you for YEARS at this point how to help you get better but your still making the same mistakes on the kit 🤦🏾‍♂️ would it really hurt you that bad to find some type of groove on this song?

Lmaoooooooooooooo whole comments roasting bro 😂😂😂😂😂😂yoooo nahh ,,,,

LMAO at 2:48, that is HILARIOUS! sounding like a white junior high jazz band drummer

As a fellow drummer myself, you can take this advice or leave it. You need to learn the pocket bro. Chopping everywhere on the song won’t get paid. Play the song and pocket. It’ll take you a long way. Be blessed bro.

i think all these haters forgot they're watching Black church, not a prayer meeting lol

Dude really trolling in church 😭🤣

Never heard of this nigga before today but yoooooo 🤣 when he started beating the hell outta that ride after the organ player tried to get him to stay on 2 & 4 lmaooo 💀💀💀

Got to stay humble aaron you got to bro i understand where you coming from I’ve been there bro if you don’t listen and take advantage of your gift god will take it from you trust me I’ve seen it happen before and I’m just 26

You gotta get up

Too many chops G 😂

Sounds like, "Ah man they ain't got my check" playin.

As a person who plays organ keyboard and drums this hurts bro pocket fam this ain’t no gig it’s church treat it as such 🤦🏽‍♂️you playing to GOD not for the people bro then ya attitude towards the band when they tell you keep it straight id fire you bro take this vid down 😂you already getting clowned 🤦🏽‍♂️

Mans Is wearing sunglasses in church, clearly he doesn’t care what y’all think lol

Out of love bro, I'm finna throw yo sticks out the back door Kuh! You have done more fills in one song then I have in my 28 years of playing drums! Trust me you got them, but can you place them where they need to be?! You know there needs to be way more pocket. Fight the urge to do all of that and I SWEAR TO GOD YOU WILL BE WAY BETTER THAN YOU ARE RIGHT NOW! Right now you sound disconnected from everybody else. Not in a good way. How many times do you have everybody fighting for when to clap? If they didn't have a track playing they would be clapping on 1, 2, 3, and 4. Save all of this for the shed sessions. In Church make the people feel the groove. Man you had Timothy Wright ready to come back before the rapture and unwrite this song. Heavenly Lord God above!!!

Love you my brother , sometimes us as drummers we gotta realize we can take away from the essence of a song by over doing with our licks . It’s tricky to show off our talent and stay within the confines of the song . The attention is supposed to be on God and sometimes we can take away from that trying to show off our God given ability. You’re a great a drummer keep going my brother. This song was just a case of you doing too much and not keeping the pocket clean or the tempo of the song . I hate that the last commenter said he felt sorry for the band , you’re a great addition and as a drummer i know sometimes we get so excited to play a song we lose ourselves lol

Aye cuz how old are you?! Mad respect. Keep working it out, keep practicing with a click. Most people don’t have the courage to try any of that live. Also keeping four on the floor when u do some of those runs can make it seem less “choppy” while still chopping it up like u do. Do Not LET THE COMMENTS DISCOURAGE YOU.

He has to be the Pastor kid haha ain’t no way nobody just didn’t run up there an snatch those sticks from him

Amazing, bro!

Man the way this boy talking after posting this outta pocket vid man is crazy😂u good but u ain that good to be talking like u lacy or CJ💯

That tempo is JUMPY!!! 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

Perfect example of playing out of skill then playing out of the anointing

Why are you doing so much? It takes away from the music. Set a groove. It's like you're playing anything just because you can. Then I'm watching the others musicians it's like they use to it.

I normally never comment especially on KZfaq for that matter however as an keys/organist/ and drummer this tears my nerves up not just the chops but the arrogance behind having no wisdom….life and embarrassment will humble him some day however if he wants to continue to be confined to one platform let him remain arrogant being….1) humble …..2) having pocket 3) chops are great and i will never be against them I believe in expressing yourself because i still do when the time allows but placement sir is everything. But furthermore being humble will take you further than sloppy chops ever will! Ending on a good note though he has the potential of being an absolute monster on set but its in these moments you should soak up what you can be teachable yo thats real it’s people who are better than you that won’t get the gigs not because of their skill/talent but because of their arrogance! Be encouraged don’t stop playing but become better than you were the day before!

OMG WTF are you trying to get fired?. There is a time and place for all those CHOPS. @ A DRUM SHED. No one will call you for a gig after watching this you should know better. Don't say nobody hasn't told you already because I know someone has.

Dang lol I’ve never heard a musician say they be trolling their church though.. y’all might as well stop trying because clearly he’s not getting the message or he just doesn’t care…

What y’all think about the beginning?…. Lmao I knew when put them blue shades he was finna chop up a storm 🤣😂

The sad part about looking at these comments and looking at his responses is that i know some young drummers that look up to him. Of course I explain the importance of pocket but chopping they looked to him as the example. Aaron if you don't want to take your craft seriously and mature in your decision making whe. It comes to church and your responses, please do it for the young ones that look up to you.

Hey man, listen, I think you're a beast on drums 100% percent. But whole time, coming from a drummer who's younger than you, and I'm just tellin' you from what I know as I'm still learning myself, you have to stay in pocket when it comes to these songs. It's ok to add a couple of licks here and there, but too many chops can take away from the rhythm of the song. But just keep practicin', and you'll improve.

This video put a huge smile on my face 😂😂😂, keep doing you bro !

I started typing ALL the wrong things the drummer did in this video...but my fingers got tired..lol bruh you had one job POCKET!!! What you gat the click/track in ya ears for?? I felt sorry for the rest of the band and choir

Awesome

As if that hat wasn’t atrocious enough…

Peep the organist at 4:09 common dude…🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

He got this “ego” but put shades on to play “For the rest of my life” you can play “for fun” at the crib….it’s great that you have a great paying job because this ain’t gone work out with yo attitude the way it is

when churches stop asking u to play don't start wondering why. Quit closing doors in front of u.

Couldn’t be my church nor my music department 🤷🏾‍♀️. You would’ve been kicked off the drums mid song.

Fired

4:06 the organ player is telling him to keep it on 2 & 4 and he’s refusing smh and what’s the deal with those shades inside that church

Dawgy ik you trolling. Forget the music u good mentally? Just noticing your reaction to comments.. u seem a lil heated? Is it the criticism?

The excitement of playing this song I wouldn’t know what to do first lol

Stay in the lab kuz

❤

We as the drummer mess up sometime lol😂 but it all good. But keep the drumming on Aaron.

The band is sicka him 😂

😐😐😐😐 this is just bad

From the looks of it... the rest of the band don't like you as much as you like yourself. They'll get rid of a you in a heartbeat for a drummer that's half as good as you with a better attitude.

Mane take ts down

First off no pocket.arrogant and can't stand for nobody to tell you nothing don't mix.he is all over the place and taking away from the song.i did not enjoy this at all.

I love playing this stuff on my kit, but in church it's best to serve the song. If that's what they want you to pay, then you play it.

Bro this was not it. Dude couldnt keep the tempo lost the click many times and all his fills were out of place and sloppy

Bro. Just take this down and fix your attitude.

Smh!!! Nah this ain’t it bruh…..learn ur placement!! You’ll see as u get older

Yeah bruh this ain’t it! Pocket wins! God Bless!

Buddy weird 😂😂😂

I can definitely see you don’t like to be part of a team. Best part of being imma band is being able to be cohesive. Chops are good but people don’t care for them until it’s time for them. When it’s overused they become annoying fast.

Maybe he stopped playing for some time and just came back to it recently. I noticed he was not sounding like guy i knew in one of his videos where he was playing on the street. He needs to go back to more practice if that is actually what happened. He sounded almost like a semi-pro in drums I know he is a professional drummer. As a drummer myself you can be rusty when you stopped playing for a long time and need some more practice to get back into form. God bless my brother.

Aaron you are my favorite drummer but what you did was wayyyyy to much you don’t even care wearing a cap and shades in church bro I wish you would get kicked out doing this cause they won’t pay you enough 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️😤😤

I'm not gone lie bro I'm a fan but this was kinda cringy to hear an watch. You're talented because I've seen it but this wasn't it today bro

Arab you better play you better kill a praise break Aaron boy

Lit bro 🔥

I really didn’t think it was this bad but it is 🤦🏾‍♂️ bro you are all out of place this is not locked 🔒 humble your self bro

That was horrible and your immaturity in these comments is disgusting. You do this at my church and Bishop will put you out himself and tell the whole state not to EVER book you. You know that you are a good drummer but it’s obvious that you don’t care. Imma pray for you. Y’all young people today are REALLY lost and it’s really sad. People are giving you wisdom to help you grow but cool. Just like the Lord GAVE you everything you have he can INSTANTLY take it all away and give it to someone who NEEDS that blessing!

The band hates this guy 😂😂😂 but his mom is probably a trustee so he ain’t going no where…

WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE DAWG

Yeah this SUCKS🤣🤣

Honestly I don’t speak on this kinda stuff a lot but to anyone in here talking bout the chopping please chill with it 😂😂…This man is a content creator putting out what he wants to put out your opinions aren’t relevant at all and not finna change nun about this man’s playing 😂😂…if you don’t like it don’t hire him it’s simple 🤦🏾‍♂️

I’ll say it… it’s horrible

Y’all can say what you want we all was there at one point and time. But to be real bro ….I use love hearing you play but the one thing that you haven’t noticed is that your timing starts to take a hit when all you can do is chop. The art of being a minstrel has been lost for views and there is glory and honor to God. All love from me bro. Just keeping it real. We gotta remember that we have the tendency to set the atmosphere and while I’m sure you had a lot of fun, where did you help the service?

Simplicity is key. As a drummer, it's our job to compliment the music and not showcase. Please spend some time with the metronome because you were in front of the music majority of the song. No songs are for chops unless they give the drummer a solo, and even then they need to put in the right place. You basically took over the song with that horrible distasteful playing. Having chops don't get you paid, playing in the pocket gets you paid.

Post more vids like this.

I really hope you get fired, you can’t even listen to the band leader?

Bro you gotta pick your placements LESS IS MORE

Had to have been wearing joggers, because there was no pocket at all!!!!!

Play no scrubs today yearly you better play oceans today you're a boy you better play those friends You better play you better play that drum set today and a boy

I’m just commenting to say I did 😂😂😂😂

Questions to Aaron : could you play the song on keys or guitar?????

Did way too much stay in the pocket bro humble yourself

Who’s the minsters of music? This nigga choppin a lil much! BUT YOU DO WHAT YOU GET ALLOWED TO ‼️ ALL LOVE THO

This is terrible!!!!!!!

Good Drummer… No Discipline.🤦🏾‍♂️

Bro chill out a bit. Church will get mad at you for doing to much our previous church drummer was fired because of that. Just that stuff when the intensity is high.

god willingly you get some discipline soon my brother

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. What in the world is he playing trash

Maybe to shed too yes..but church service no....way too much

Aye bruh you can play but you chop way too much for a CHOIR SONG.. placement & POCKET is everything but keep doing you tho kid!
