Session drumming on Danger Mouse & Black Thought’s Cheat Codes

Big up Danger Mouse for giving me the opportunity to play drums on the super dope Danger Mouse & Black Thought Cheat Codes album, out today! It’s a small instrumental section at the end of “Identical Deaths”. It happened by accident when he was playing me the album last summer in my basement; I picked up the sticks and started playing along to the main part of the song. He just said “keep that up,” I recorded it, he added full instrumentation and that’s it.

Proud to have a small part of a big record. Also dope to be credited as a session player. The sample pack stuff is dope in its own way, but I rarely get label copy credit for that stuff and session credits help keep you working. So huge gratitude for Danger Mouse, Dan Auerbach, Adrian Quesada, Madlib and Egon, Prince Paul, Soul Supreme, Lord Finesse, Binky Griptite, Showbiz, Dotan Bergman, Saucy Lady, Big KO and everyone else who saw a clip or heard the packs first, then called me to join them live on stage or play on their records and challenge myself in the past couple years. Now go get Cheat Codes!
