Half a generation older than you & your contemporaries, I wasn't familiar with Aaron Spears' name (but I knew LJ!, [smile]), and learning all this about him posthumously is genuinely heart warming. What a compassionate soul. Sounds like LJ has an eternal angel on his shoulders. Thank you for putting this together and sharing. Sending comforting prayers to you all and all who knew him. Bless.
I would literally wake up every weekend at my grandparents house, go into their room where the computer was, with nothing but head phones, drum sticks and a cup of coffee. I would watch, Teddy Campbell, Gerald Heyward, and AARON SPEARS. I use to air drum his “caught up “ cover on his modern drummer. I’ve literally been hooked ever since. Aaron, Mr. Spears, thank you. Thank you for teaching me even though you never met me or talked to me a day in my life. You have no idea, How impactful you’ve been to me as a musician. Ima miss your smile that you would make when the music was getting funky! I’ll miss your videos of u playing with Usher. God truly needed his angel in heaven with you
Wilson World, Aww RIP AARON SPEARS!!!!! He was a great drummer and he has inspired many people, love to you guys and to his family!!! 😢😢😢❤😊❤😊❤😊❤🥁 🥁 🥰 😢😢😢❤❤😊❤😊😊❤
I’m sorry to learn of this significant loss to your family. It’s a beautiful legacy he left of love and music to your family as seeds into your musical talents.
Hey, Wilson Family! It's sad to say that I've never heard of Aaron Spears, but thanks to y'all, now I do know who he was and how much LOVE he had for y'all! After watching this video, I made it my business to find out more about him! LJ is the only drummer I've been interested in when I discovered him when y'all introduced him as a toddler in videos! So, to me, LJ is the greatest drummer I know! Tfs! Much 💚, Dorothy
RIP to Aaron!!! I remember being at the GMWA in RVA like in 2000 and seeing this band called The Gideon Band. Met bro and he was the 2nd cat I seen in church with a MPC. Mario Winans aka Skeeter was the first I have seen with one but what Aaron was doing was insane and sounded like Timbaland!!! RIP bro!!!!!
What's crazy is that one of the first videos I saw of Wilson World was LJ thanking Aaron Spears for the drum set. The first time I heard about Aaron Spears is when Josh Crawford reacted to one of his videos about five years ago. I never met him in person and I never got to interact with him on social media but I saw some of his videos and he was awesome on the drums. When I heard about his untimely passing, the first people I thought about were the Wilson World. There were times I contemplated retiring from playing the drums heavily in 2019 and again this year although not as heavy as 2019 but now, I can't retire! I'll be turning 45 on Thanksgiving if it's the Lord's will and I feel like I have a lot left in the tank! My drumming hasn't gone as far as I would like for it to go but I still can't stop right now! I'm gonna keep going until I get there! My prayers go out to the family of Aaron Spears and also to the Wilson World in the untimely passing of a drum legend! Cherish and live life to the fullest! Sending my love from Chicago!
