Behind The Beat w/ Arthur "L.A." Buckner | Lesson 1: The Dilla Feel (Part 1)

McNally Smith College of Music master's student Arthur "L.A." Buckner shares key concepts he employs in hip-hop, R&B, neo soul and gospel drumming in this exclusive 4-part lesson series.

"Episode 1: The Dilla Feel (Part 1)" kicks off the series with Buckner explaining how innovative hip-hop producer J Dilla (A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Busta Rhymes, Erykah Badu, The Roots, Common) utilized intentional rushing and dragging when constructing beats, and how as a drummer, you can play in the gray area between straight and swung notes to emulate this purposefully out of sync feel.
