🎧 What does it feel like to be the beat behind David Bowie, Madonna, Sting, Miles Davis, and Daft Punk? In this new episode of dopeYEAH Talk, Rob Cass sits down with one of the greatest drummers of all time — Omar Hakim — for a mind-blowing conversation that spans decades of music history, innovation, and soul. From the streets of Jamaica, Queens to Grammy stages and legendary studios, Omar shares unforgettable stories and insights you won’t hear anywhere else. 🥁✨In this deep and often funny conversation, Omar talks about his early gigs, joining Weather Report, the making of Bowie’s Let’s Dance, and getting that call from Dire Straits. He breaks down the groove of “Let’s Dance” live on camera, and shares what it was like to be handpicked by Sting — and later Daft Punk — for some of the most iconic albums ever made. He also opens up about working with Miles Davis, the shift from jazz to pop, and how he’s stayed creatively alive over the decades. 🎶🔥Whether you're a drummer, music lover, or just a fan of legendary artists, this episode is pure gold. 💬 Omar drops life advice, talks about the evolution of his sound, and even reveals the best (and worst) gigs of his life — including one in front of 150,000 people with Madonna! Stick around to hear what’s next for him and why he believes music without soul is just noise. Watch now and get inspired by a true rhythm master. 🥁🎥
