Travis Barker - Can a Drummer Get Some?
Artist: Travis Barker
Featuring: Lil Wayne , Game , Rick Ross , Swizz Beatz
Producer: Travis Barker
Album: Give the Drummer Some
Label: Interscope
Being great at your particular craft and appreciative of others is how beneficial collaborations come about. Since former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker is respected across genres, he can call up anyone from The Cool Kids to Tom Morello. After a couple of DJ Booth favorite teases, we get the first true single from Barker’s album in the form of Can a Drummer Get Some?. The way the record plays out Swizz Beatz is relegated to his usual chorus and hype man duties, meaning the focus is on three rappers, two of whom know Barker very well. Game seems urgent, keeping his lines battle ready and impactful and Weezy remains topical with sport references peppered throughout and his usual brand of croaky wordplay. Rick Ross, though, almost seems like an afterthought, but manages to conjure up the idea that he can speak Swahili while stacking his assortment of millions. Barker’s super project, Give the Drummer Some, drops March 15 on Interscope Records with features from Slaughterhouse, Clipse, KiD CuDi, Paul Wall and Kurupt. I don’t think the drummer will be asking for some anymore, he’ll just take all the attention he pleases.

I expected more. The production is dynamic, but I cannot say the same for the vocal performances. I hope this isn't a reflection of the entire debut album.

This is really dope. Game's flow works perfectly for this rock kind of flow. And Weezy's multis were off-the-chain. Weezy should've recruited Barker for his failed Rebirth cut. I would replace Ross though.
Other than that, the drums Barker plays are absolutely epic. |

Its not horrible even though it sounds like sumn I have heard Swizz done already. Why was Rick Ross even on this track? He dragged it down to me.

It is okay, but I think I have liked it better when Travis Barker remixes songs by using his drums. I just wasn't feeling this, but then again maybe it is just this song. I am hoping that his other songs get better. I'm looking forward to the one with Slaughterhouse and am interested in seeing how Cudi and him will mix on a song.

This right here is definitely something different, but Rock and Rap usually go together like a horse and carriage. The beat here usually doesn't work with hip-hop, but this time it somewhat does. I think Game did pretty good and Lil wayne seems the most at home on this track. Rick Ross mellows down a bit to fit well on the track too. This is a rotation track for me. I would play it again and I wouldn't mind hearing this on the radio even though it will get played-out rather quickly. Good Luck to Travis on this new album! His life has been crazy for the past 5yrs or so...

Expected a lot more. Game's best work in ever. Can't figure out why I like Rick Ross, but I do. SN: Did he ever say the word in Swahili? 1 point technical deduction.

I do believe the beat is something different, something out of left field in a sense. But that chorus is annoying to high hell. Game definitely shows something better than his latest efforts, and I do agree that this is more so Wayne's comfort zone now than anyone elses. Rotation yes, but do I believe it to showcase good lyrical prowess? Na.

Why is it that everytime a bunch of good ppl come together on a record, the record goes no where. Every time 3 or more "big name" ppl come on together, its terrible... The only good part in this whole song is Lil Waynes verse.

Good to see Game back in the mix with the hip hop heavy weights. Decent beat, better lyrics.
Ross and Wayne impressed as usual. |
