OK here's my observations. Partially based on regional histories and from observing historical/cultural elements. Let's start with the "Snare on the Three". That's coming straight out of Reggae. That's the "One Drop" anyone who's played in a Reggae rhythm section will tell you that. The high hat patterns. To me what's crazy about that is that if you watch about 10 videos of Flamenco dancing and listen to the rhythms created by the footwork you will hear the basis of the Drill hi-hat patterns. Incidentally that comes directly out of the Moor influence (lazy way of saying Moroccan) or the Gypsy (lazy way of saying Egyptian) influence. Then there's the sources of the sampling. I kinda have to give White Europeans some credit on this one since those elements seem to be coming out of European Classical music. Those piano and string arrangements are straight up European classical music (you know the crusty dudes in the white wigs we really can't get away from them). Then there's some other interesting things regarding production and regional history to throw in. Industrial music. If you look at Chicago that was the home of Wax Trax records (Ministry, Pig Face, Throbbing Gristle etc) which is related to German Avant Garde music and incidentally Jamaican Dub music which also influenced in a circular fashion British electronic music (look at Adrian Sherwoods mixes for Depeche Mode, and Nine Inch Nails, and Ministry combined with his production work for Bim Sherman, his work with the group Tackhead goes directly back to Sugar Hill Records plus his work next to Mad Professor). Now let's look at the difference between US and UK MC's. I realize that this observation is kind of a mine field. The UK abolished slavery (at least from the mainland level) before the US. I realize that this doesn't include the Empire quite so much but it does as the Island so to speak. If you look at Brixton for example (especially at the Brixton Riots) that "Black Culture" was based more on immigrants from the Caribbean and Africa than from generations of mainland born culture based on slavery (compared to the US). I'm not saying that UK racism doesn't/didn't exist what I am saying is listen to the patterns and cadences of Jamaican "Toasters" vs UK Drill MC's vs US Drill MC's. It's really like making a stew. You have the ingredients, the tools, the cooking methods, the traditions, and how you combine them.

Also here in Latin America the recent wave of latin drill songs have adopted mainly the UK drill sound. What has stayed from the original Chicago sound is the darkness of melodies and textures even though as drill continues to evolve into more pop territory it has been even losing that since UK drill is getting more pop all the time

DJ L made it for sure
From the UK. Honestly it really took pop smoke for me to accept drill. Now I’m exploring how that rhythmic pattern can become the focuse like House came from Disco.
DJ L Beats is worth mentioning, he came up at the same time as Young Chop, even if Young Chops dark keys definitely did have an influence, DJ L drum patterns is the predecessor to todays drill sound
The main thing that UK/NY drill (today's more popular stuff) takes away from Chicago Drill is the noticeable shuffle, usually with the hi hats and the snare. That shuffle was present in G Herbo and Lil Bibby's early music in the early to mid 2010s.

The uk drill hihat/drum patterns share a lot of similarities to chicago footwork as well, some early chicago drill examples of these types of beats are faneto by chief keef which is clearly inspired by footwork, it’s just that the kick pattern is used in the hihats

The kick and bbm is adopted from grime, garage which was birth from dancehall. Caribbean’s moved to England with Africans and that kick tempo flow got taken from there. In U.K. if you listen to a grime beat then listen to a U.K. drill beat u can hear the similarity.

UK drill beats got influence from DJ L and grime, like the whole tempo and bpm is from grime, the 808 slides is influenced by like dubstep and grime too. The dark piano melodies we used to hear was a DJ L think too, same with the kicks and snares. But currently whatever the uk drill beats are sound nothing like dj L tbh, but the older drill beats back in like 2015-17 sounded more like dj L .

Lil Wayne in the mid 2000s era (Carter, Dedication Mixtapes) also influenced the drill scene in Chicago...and then Wayne sonically took a little from the Atlanta rap scene through producers...so really Chicago drill is an offshoot of southern US rap.
Kennington where it started is a major throwback. I remember blasting Call Me A Spartan on the way to school daily
So what I'm getting is that Chicago Drill is basically louder glissando to the beat drop & more wider 808s. While Uk (England) Drill takes the dramatic build up to the beat drop, but is more ordered & quicker due to Grime. NY doesn't have a distinct drill. Literally, just UK Drill in New York. STOP TRYING TO FEEL
Wish that some of the underground acts like Moh Baretta, Polo Perks, Shawny Binladen, etc. I think surf gang & evilgiane and all that's been going on in the NY underground has a huge part in some of the drill music going on in the Bronx right now.
Once the industry gets a hold of your sound, you can be replicated. Stay independent. Stay protected. Move smart. Own your music. Don't take deals unless they give you partial ownership. You can't change the game overnight... Just get you and your family portion. If you don't you know how the saga goes, do your research.
OK, I like learning this. But it's about the LISTENERS. Like in the Sound Field Ballroom episode. What did Drill mean to the people who made it successful?Why did Drill become NECESSARY?
Most people I chat with tell me that it's actually the uk drill sound (the tressilo bounce, bubbly bass and misplaced snares) that is actually drill to them

Bang bang
Nice video we got here
THIS IS MY SOUND 100 percent
OK here's my observations. Partially based on regional histories and from observing historical/cultural elements. Let's start with the "Snare on the Three". That's coming straight out of Reggae. That's the "One Drop" anyone who's played in a Reggae rhythm section will tell you that. The high hat patterns. To me what's crazy about that is that if you watch about 10 videos of Flamenco dancing and listen to the rhythms created by the footwork you will hear the basis of the Drill hi-hat patterns. Incidentally that comes directly out of the Moor influence (lazy way of saying Moroccan) or the Gypsy (lazy way of saying Egyptian) influence. Then there's the sources of the sampling. I kinda have to give White Europeans some credit on this one since those elements seem to be coming out of European Classical music. Those piano and string arrangements are straight up European classical music (you know the crusty dudes in the white wigs we really can't get away from them). Then there's some other interesting things regarding production and regional history to throw in. Industrial music. If you look at Chicago that was the home of Wax Trax records (Ministry, Pig Face, Throbbing Gristle etc) which is related to German Avant Garde music and incidentally Jamaican Dub music which also influenced in a circular fashion British electronic music (look at Adrian Sherwoods mixes for Depeche Mode, and Nine Inch Nails, and Ministry combined with his production work for Bim Sherman, his work with the group Tackhead goes directly back to Sugar Hill Records plus his work next to Mad Professor). Now let's look at the difference between US and UK MC's. I realize that this observation is kind of a mine field. The UK abolished slavery (at least from the mainland level) before the US. I realize that this doesn't include the Empire quite so much but it does as the Island so to speak. If you look at Brixton for example (especially at the Brixton Riots) that "Black Culture" was based more on immigrants from the Caribbean and Africa than from generations of mainland born culture based on slavery (compared to the US). I'm not saying that UK racism doesn't/didn't exist what I am saying is listen to the patterns and cadences of Jamaican "Toasters" vs UK Drill MC's vs US Drill MC's. It's really like making a stew. You have the ingredients, the tools, the cooking methods, the traditions, and how you combine them.

"Negative connotation"? Drill is basically ALWAYS negative, unfortunately. As someone who listened to it a LOT over the years, to ignore the fact that it encourages retaliation and disrespect to dead people, as well as other clearly anti-social behaviors is just foolish.
