Kidding. Kind of. Not really. A lot of the shit he does in this video is sick. A la (1:57 - 2:20) and (3:17 - end).

The funky drummer break. There's a good reason it's been sampled like seven million times.

Don't start talkin' about drummers with names that begin with the letters "G - A - D", because James Gadson is the baddest of 'em all.

Just got around to listening to that Megamix... and it's awesome. Throwing it on my music box as we speak.
Here's one I totally forgot about 'til it came up on shuffle.
