Funk music is characterized by a strong sense of rhythm and rhythm, mainly relying on drums and bass to drive music. Funk's drums are usually slow and lazy, but they have a strong sense of rhythm. In funk music, drummers usually use some unique techniques, such as heavy bass percussion and unique rhythm control, which make the music unique.

Compared with Funk, RNB's drums are more rhythmic, usually lyrical and light. In RNB music, drums are usually not as slow and lazy as Funk, but more active and elastic. At the same time, RNB's drums also pay more attention to the control of the beat, and are often used in conjunction with piano, guitar and other musical instruments, making music more abundant and multi-layered.

Stylistically, funk music is usually passionate, with a strong sense of rhythm and unique musical instrument playing skills, such as electric bass and trombone. RNB music, on the other hand, pays more attention to emotional expression and lyrics content, and usually presents a kind of affection and sensibility.

Generally speaking, although Funk and RNB are both black music styles, their drums, rhythms and emotional expressions are obviously different. Only by listening more and feeling more can we better understand and distinguish these two musical styles.
