Gerald Heyward, Jumpin' Jumpin'

[@musiqsoundsproductions]

Gospel chops before they became the famous gospel chops out in the world. Man is the legend.

[@starchild8224]

There were choppers way before GH. He took it to tha next level tho

[@musiqsoundsproductions]

@@starchild8224thats why I said before they became famous. He and others like Aaron and Khari brought it out in the world on tours.

[@cletus-bauls]

Gerald been a BEAST every since a kid!!

[@CSpikesProductions]

Gerald Heyword is a legend don't get it twisted out here💪🏾

[@pearldrumsets]

True but no one is missing him right now 2023

[@musiqsoundsproductions]

the new generation has stood up. Check Devon Taylor's foot. Still unc Gerald is the OG.

[@cletus-bauls]

Gerald been a BEAST when WE WERE KIDS

[@djoc417]

Once he threw the headphones off it was OVER !

[@maaxzy-iyke2206]

I respect teddy for his consistency.

[@brianmcguire5175]

I love this clip and the same way I did years ago when I first watched it. If you saw the full dvd production you'd have seen this peramce among other startling rnb chop drummers. The reason I love this clip the same way is that Gerald intended his performance to be unique amongst the others by virtue of "raw" and "improvised". He really lets it all hang out here and risking errors along the way. Of course I noticed the occasional, and very occasional, time skips. He also even had a drum stick drop and drum stick clatter contact. None of the supposed flaws in this uniquely raw, live and honest performance did anything to diminish my enjoyment, pleasure and absolute respect for this true performance. When he tossed the head phones was the moment he declared he was doing it live and unrehearsed. His solo had all the attributes and qualities that demonstrated his true talent that even any mistakes or error I could possibly detect wasn't note worthy enough for me to even try critique his over all and final performance. It's a raw and honest performance that is most notably and famously book marked by the timer and most impressive moments he got to demonstrate throughout. The right foot single bass drum syncopated dance riffs and the splash cymbal and tom snare lyrics is what I love about this above any concievable slip . What he meant to do is clear as day

[@mr.tonenice8865]

Best Foot period!!!!

[@dagostinoification]

Magnifique !

[@xz_cridix9824]

This video changed my life

[@dominionkalu_footballintel]

This is amazing

[@brianmcguire5175]

At 2.41 he drops his right stick and ive never heard a musical mistake then this. The subsequent stick clatter sounda like intentional dissonance. He was a gufted musical producer i loved his performance for good and for bad. He was the human i can relate to and the musician i was envious of. Brilliant stuff altogether

[@Danielenellafossadeileoni]

I love snare sounds....

[@seansidley2359]

It's pretty common and also it's pressuring to do clinics like this.

[@tbonepercussion]

Gerald's Foot game is vicious!!

[@carliaskoffi6783]

Excellent!

[@dpainos]

How does he hold his sticks like that????

[@michaelm.6040]

Dude Went OFF!

[@maaxzy-iyke2206]

[@Aiden._.Jacob._.]

[@Scorcher-nn5yy]

This guy isn't Right. Thats awesome Man.

[@ant0n13l]

Thats a mean snare drum

[@JazzDunn1]

Tight asl

[@dsmith9770]

he was really nervous

[@a.nobodys.nobody]

What makes you say that, the twitchy foot?

[@godly_intellect222]

That’s how we gospel drummers do sir

[@Vin4227]

Solid drummer no doubt!..Why he & Aaron Spears wear the same Nike sneakers?

[@Joshstix95]

man that foot crazy. The track messed up on him tho 😢

[@RodZilla11]

Jizzy Keint The opening was really sloppy. Once he got off the track it was better, but he seemed to be playing for applause instead of just playing. I've heard him way cleaner than this. He's still dope though. LOLOLOL

[@TheColbles2009]

The track was skipping and he got frustrated

[@kxlebmusiq]

That Was @Craig Crawford Drummer

[@Christopherdrums]

anyone notice how he holds his stick @ 0:40

[@JordanPeoples01]

Ajogwu Christopher yes I noticed that too,really weird

[@andym28]

Number of advantages sticks not choked enhancing tone, zero tension more stamina.. finger control is a weapon you can play loud using fingers angle of sticks are same as your arms more ergonomic. If you try it tape your fingers though as you'll get blisters.

[@maaxzy-iyke2206]

Yeah. And it's held powerfully, can't fall off.

[@ArgathosSnake]

The same way Carmine Appice does

[@sharkattack8560]

Great

[@dondonaldth]

this is real beat. ça claque sévère.

[@김범준-w1o]

진짜 이 그립 따라하다가 중지검자 사이 다까졌었는데...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

[@rainerperezrodriguezmusic]

[@rendyferdiansyah5151]

Do i ask? I am very happy with the sound snare drum that you use, how many snare drum sizes do you use? Can I ask for references to the size of a snare drum suitable for all songs ? Before I say thank you willing to share knowledge about drum greetings I'm rendy ferdiansyah

[@Isaiah-kv9dm]

[@dondonaldth]

[@pelhamonetwothree1239]

YOU ARE RIGHT BUT ESSENTIALLY AARON SPEARS WAS INSPIRED BY A DECEASED DRUMMER NAMED MARVIN MCQUITTY OF FRED HAMMOND MARY MARY AND JESSICA SIMPSON FAME AND GERALD HEYWARD WHO IS THE GOD FATHER OF GOSPEL CHOPS THAT ORIGINATED BACK TOWARDS THE END OF THE 1980s AARON HIMSELF WILL DEFINITELY TELL YOU THAT
