In my eyes you've only really made it when you can drop lines like..."I only play for Stevie Wonder, Jay-Z and Micheal Jackson."

Hes technically brilliant which is unsurprising considering he's been playing since he was 3 years old but the problem with 'session' musicians is that they don't develop their own style and when compared to drummers who play or have lead bands they sound flat.

And, you thought this was going to be another one of those grammer school talent shows with some dopey kid playing a few basic beats....NOT! I love it...some 12 year old kid took the world of percussion by surprize, and knocked it right on it's stale, dead ass! There were alot of well established pro drummers who were intimidated by this kid. Tough shit! Work harder! Keep up! And, while he's running away with it all, I hope he doesn't forget the big bag of money that goes with it all!
