    CNote put the snare you hear everywhere on the map. Used it like 10 years ago. Also put the dirty 808 distortion on the map. The triplet kicks and snares at the end of the bar. Also put the sub bass on slide pitch.

      @@sjpublishing7596 na Drumma was doing 1/2 kick rolls. Servin lean from Cnote was like the first time I heard a track use them triplets on the kick. But that's not to undermine the other GOAT Drumma. Drumma done pioneered alot of shit. Drumma like the first producer I'd hear with 2 separate hi hat rolls , one with a steady 1/2 step and the second with all the 1/3, 1/6 rolls. He's responsible for alot more, but Cnote is responsible and known for them kick rolls.

    Dope Interview.. Had a studio across from C Note back in 09 at Vision's Studios in Atlanta. He had some of the hardest beats I ever heard back then and was goin crazy asf with his snare rolls lol. Use to share drum sounds and production tips because I always use to knock on his studio door and ask how the f%ck you doing them snare rolls bruh sheesh lol. I still got a unreleased beat that he played some keys on for me. Got chance to collab with Kane Beatz also whom he spoke of in the interview. Alot of dope producers/artist & songwriters who blew up in Atlanta at some point had a room in Visions back in the day or recored there. Congrats on all your success bro, hella inspiration..
