Song: Marina & the Diamonds - "Oh No"
This drum fill came up through jamming along to a Marina and the Diamonds song. It starts with a 6 stroke roll then moves into some single strokes and a little fancy footwork. This works great for leading up to a musical pause, or you can extend it into a full 2 bar fill

This guy is the BEST drum teacher I have ever watched. I learned most of my drum fills from him. He also rocks that flat cap.

[@KJRias]

Haha. Thanks for the support, Bobo!

[@jbraun19]

I agree Bobo Swaggins! and you sir, have a rad youtube handle lol.

[@Vanithoth]

Jerry, are you talking to me or KJ?

[@Vanithoth]

Np :)

[@jbraun19]

I'm talking you you Bobo Swaggins lol

[@alexbaum2204]

What happened to this guy? Really a natural teacher. I grew up with a classical teacher that beat reading into my head. And that’s great and all. Side note: I can barely read anymore after a 25 year absence. But I wish I had a guy like this back then that would have just showed me a trick here and there around the kit. Stuff to build off of. Then you link that with reading after they learn the chop. Had it gone down like that, I might not have taken the four years away from drums that I did during high school. Time lost never to be regained. Good teachers are important. Bad teachers suck.

[@tomszabat]

I love that shoulder nod at 6:00

[@KJRias]

Thanks for the support!

[@franciscovaldivia7286]

I remember watching this when I first started playing drums!! I loved the fill so much that I practiced it everyday for years, I now can play this fill, and still play it until this day!! Thank you!

[@L1FEOUTLOUD]

I'm a beginner drummer and I would have to say that I find your lesson's informative and engaging. I appreciate the fact that you are able to simplify complex fills by breaking it into small digestible bite size steps - excellent teacher. Thank you KJ.

[@Runepriest442]

I am gonna be honest brother KJ... YOU TAUGHT me the PROPER way to play a 6 stroke roll... I learned it wrong from a fellow drummer 20 some years ago and I have been doing the accents wrong this ENTIRE Time... THANK YOU man... you have fixed a LONG standing problem I have had. with your video.... I am buying your kick package cause your fills are sick LOVE your videos. You go into Detail where most drum instructors ASSUME knowledge.. IT IS MOST appreciated!!

[@KJRias]

thanks for the kind words. i always encourage people to share the videos to help get the views up. plenty more on the way.

[@humblehombre9904]

I agree. I have checked a lo-hot of drummers out, and this guy not only rocks, but teaches so well. Thanks brother. You are a credit.

[@nthatomahlaba2914]

Thanx for this fill...started learning it about a month ago and now its like my go to fill...and that last KRL-KK-RL is now my go to outro on other fills....Thanx again from all the way out here in South Africa!!

[@KJRias]

Thanks for watching Nthato! Glad I could help.

[@TheKillabutcha]

KJ YOU ARE ALWAYS ON POINT...THIS IS SOOO TASTY BRO...THANKS FOR YOUR TIME

[@vxrdrummer]

That snare sounds unbelievable! Great teacher to go with the sick snare.

[@johnspagnoli7427]

Thank you KJ ...your fills would definitely make peoples fills stand out!!

[@jcwdesigns82]

I really need to watch more of your videos than just this video and it's follow ups, lol. But I'm just so enamored by the fills in this series. They're just lovely!

[@novitamonitor]

This is the first 6 stroke roll with 7 strokes I've ever seen!

[@markhenderson1119]

[@christiancanalita6487]

[@JCReyesJCRACING]

[@drumerboy1339]

One of the best tune drums sound,you know just to be safe.

[@callummullaney2353]

That is one sick fill, I have made a promise to myself to learn this by the end of the week to impress all my friends lol. Thanks man, the six stroke roll is my all time favourite rudiment, and to see a cool amazing fill being created with it fills my head with inspiration. Can't wait to watch the next tutorial man, nice video and you deserve more subs.

[@kdscy]

Man, you're going to have me working for hours on end with all this material your putting up. Glad I stumbled onto your channel, your killin it!

[@72suji]

Very smart semi quaver triplet fill.thanks bro...❤️

[@CalTalbot]

Awesome stuff KJ, I'm so glad I just stumbles upon you site/channel, whatever. So I subscribed right quick and I'll be watching and listening for more good stuff from you. You are a freakin sick drummer man, I love your fills, etc. Hope I can learn a few of them. I have been looking for some real good song ender fills. Fills that end the song so to speak. Whenever I say song ender, no one seems to know what I'm talking about, so I say, "you know, the big Los Vegas ending", Now I know you can't put that type of ending on every song, but I'd just like to learn maybe 3 or 4 real good song enders, so people will say, "hey man, did you see what he just did to end that song, man that was sick". God Bless my friend, stay loose and happy drumming.

[@KJRias]

Thanks Cal! I know what you mean about the "song enders"...AKA Head-Turners, AKA fills that get you that "Whoa, what was that?" reaction. Haha. Plenty more on the way so stay tuned. Thanks again for the kind words and support.

[@Nick-of-Tyme]

KJ, you are amazing!!! I really loved your 6-roll demo near the 2 minute mark when you were 'noodling'!. Would love to see you do a video and teach what you did there when you were noodling - with the rim shots etc. AWESOME ! ! !

Good video!

[@PunkInDrublik86]

You are the man!

[@Retrovideogamesandmore]

just a quick note. Make sure to do your 6 stroke roll triplet based instead of 16th note based. For the longest time I did mine that way and it never sounded right until I changed it up
