drum 🥁

Share your beats with the world via the Drum emoji! This emoji shows a short and round drum, a popular instrument that belongs to the percussion music group. The drum has a white surface, and red or blue body, depending on the platform being used. A pair of brown or tan colored drumsticks are placed on top of the drum in a criss-cross position.

The Drum emoji is often used to represent drum beats, drum rolls, or songs with the sound of drums. It’s also used to denote various types of tempo, melodies, sometimes even dance forms, such as hip hop.

Sometimes this symbol is called the Drum Roll emoji or Drumstick emoji, especially when it’s used to add momentum or excitement to a specific post or conversation, just like how a drum roll would work in real life. You can also use the Drum emoji to do a virtual, snarky “ba dum tss,” to lousy jokes, puns, or just about anything else that doesn’t impress you!

Since a large number of emoticons dedicated to music are available to users, it would be silly not to take advantage of it! Feel free to mix and match the Drum emoji with other music emojis.

For instance, include musical instrument symbols like the Trumpet emoji and Accordion emoji to describe a marching band, or any other type of band you fancy. Whether you are a professional drummer or simply a hobbyist, tell your friends you’re creating new beats by simply pairing the Drum emoji with the Musical Notes emoji.

🥁 Drum is a fully-qualified emoji as part of Unicode 9.0 which was introduced in 2016.
