lol--he moved you enough to write about him though....

that right there tells me that you wouldn't even understand the language.

my requirements for being down aint based on how you can juggle, do the dishes, sing "ring around the rosey" and chew gum at once.

its the language:


"rell that shit"

i yell that shit at a moments notice and he knows the 4 things that must be done to make me happy in 2 seconds.

"rade me up"

that is a reference that requires him to play congos/bongos/hand sonic/triggers at once.

"do this son!"

that is my on the dime "break" on the 3 that you must be lightening quick to get

"dre it"

add 808 cymbals on the kick.

"ye it"

you gotta know what patch i want and in an instant.

1."jay dee"
2."dilla"
3."ummah"
4."slum"
5."puck it"
6."detroit"
7. "nuts"

a) skip the pattern once every 3 times
b) use the "we will rock you" patch clap
c) go to patch 48 use the claps
d) use shuffle and snaps
e) the 8 second 808 kick
f) play real fucked up on this part
g) shuffles on the 16


you're right.
on surface the shit aint all that remarkable.
but that is missing the point in this day and age of musicians
tryna show off they chops.
id rather play with someone i got chemistry with than the best percussionist in the world.
there is no job training for this gig.
however what makes frank PERFECT for this gig
is his willingness to sponge shit in.

you gonna tell me if i tell you to "rell it up" that you gonna know off the bat which pharrell reference im talking about?

this is the result of two cats playing with each other for about 7 years now.

studying shit together
trying new ideas
and laughing along the way.


i mean i get you tryna get in by any means (dissing the next man is soooo tired though)---but if you walk away not impressed. or at least "getting it"

--then...

well....that tells me you dont speak the language.


that's it for this post.

i gotta work!

peace.
