Still coming back to this video 13 years later 🔥🔥🔥 that left foot is VICIOUS, and that right foot is straight LETHAL

[@jamsjr44]

Me too!

[@DemonslayerOne]

UN-BELIEVABLE.... Calvin Rogers and Ladell Abrams are probably the best drummers in Gospel music hands down. The level of quickness with the hands and feet is not something every drummer can possess, but those two guys have INSANE speed. When you are able to double up on the foot pedal WITHOUT the use of a second pedal, you are on a whole nother level....

[@LDefredrick]

Yeah, Calvin is an incredible player and one of my favorite influences! Thanks for posting the vid!

[@TheLocks1]

fam your the truth.... you came to my church CCC twice with fred hammond, and all i must say is that your truly blessed.... thank you for all that you do.... i will keep you and your ministry in my prayers..... thank you for being you. God Bless Kelz ps. if your ever in the New York area please stop by CCC and ask for kelz, im 1 of the drummers there and i would be honored to meet you and just followship with you. until then my god continue to bless you and your ministry.....

[@Shauncat1]

Love it, too awesome and yet so humble,praise God

[@Smootheman1]

Man awesome footwork! Articulation is awesome. Oh! The song is by Martha Munizzi and it' called "Dance"

[@Scottjazz55]

Calvin, just excellent. Love the passion, strength. We know where that comes from! This was the first time I've seen you play. Found your site, as I saw that you had subscribed to my drumming site. I posted a video response for you as I recently had a very serious medical condition and the whole thing really took my relationship with God to a whole new level. Glad to know you. Scott Avery

[@Mix3dbyMark]

The Best in the Biz!!!

[@metersfan]

Check out his lightning bass drum pedal pattern starting at 5:14. Sounds like two pedals but it's one. I first read about him in the March 2010 issue of Modern Drummer.

[@jayham89]

@KraziiKiiD1186 What he's doing is a hi-hat splash. You hit the pedal with your heel which makes it splash and then you use your toes to close it again. Hope that helped.

[@anthony01311982]

The name of the song is "Dance" Artist: Martha Munizzi, Album: Change The World and you check her othere album he plays drums in it "No Limits: Live" annnddd with another Artist: Trent Cory, Album: Freedom Is.......there awesome CD's....

[@umut.kaymaz]

[@MrUSChopper06]

@dedrickp I was just about to comment dat same thing until i looked down and saw this one. Great minds think alike. Lol! I was just about to say, I only know him and Chris Coleman to have dat certain unique style to gospel drumming dat I am in love with. Spanky and all them are real tight, but Calvin and Chris just takes me to another place whenever i hear them. Dats a powerful anointing in a drummer when u can put me in dat place. Lol!
