Like I Love You – Justin Timeberlake – Drum Beat

Description

This weeks lesson we have a go at one of my favourite drum beats of all time, which is the groove from the track 'Like I Love You' by Justin Timberlake from his first solo album Justified. It is a great funky drum beat with an emphasis on dynamics and stylistic tastes with some delicate ghost note work.
