Pro Drummer Reacts: Top 10 On Spotify...it's BAD

In this video I check out the Top 10 songs on the Pop Charts worldwide...from the drummer's perspective. Rick Beato has done some great videos on the Spotify Top 10. You should check those out (linked below). If you are a drummer, it really is our job to understand that our role in popular music has DRASTICALLY changed over the past 20 or so years. But how exactly? That's what I want to take a look at in this drum lesson. Driver's License (Olivia Rodrigo), Dakiti (Bad Bunny and Jhay Cortez), Blinding Lights (The Weeknd), Mood (ft. iann dior by 24kGoldn), Good Days (SZA), Positions (Ariana Grande), Bichota (Karol G), Without You (Kid Laroi), Save Your Tears (The Weeknd), and more. Let's dig in and see how many (or few) actual live drums are in these songs.
