Slowing & swinging the beat makes it flow even better.
Remember to ghost the unaccented snare notes.

Here's something else to try. Swing this mother!

You just gotta listen man, keep your ears open. You'll pick up on different stuff. Make your own shit out of it. Everybody has something to offer and so do you.
Check your favorite musician's influences. Dig into their roots, get to know how they do what they do.
That's really the best advice I could really give you.
That's the path I try to follow.
