Here’s the complete drum transcription for “Lei” by Djavan, from the album Meu Lado (1986) with Teo Lima on drums.
The tune consists essentially of two sections: the verse with an implicit Partido Alto groove, with the bass drum on 2 & 4 and snare on the last 16th note, and the chorus section with a samba feel. In the verse section, Teo Lima plays the hi-hat with two hands accenting the third 16th note. Details are very important, the drum fill at the end of the intro (3 over 4 polyrhythmic ideas) is often played in many other Brazilian songs; there is a lot to be inspired by in Latin music.
