I'm sure there's a name for it but i don't know it. I guess the best way to describe it is dragging. In Mad Caddie's song Leavin' they do it about 28 seconds into the song. Any tips?

Hm...
I'm actually not sure how to describe it hahaha. There's a point where the note just starts vibrating, almost like it's about to change a partial/half step. I'm sure Googling it or asking a teacher (if you're in school/college) or someone else you know in person could help.

I got it! Just in case anyone else wanted to know you have to make a grrr sound with your soft palette, a guy on some website described it as the "sexy tiger" noise lol it works though

haha
great. glad to help 
I listened to it, and that's like a half step change... a lot of it is lipping (literally changing your embouchure to alter the pitch) and I think there might be an actual valve change in that. He also was growling pretty hard haha, I'm not sure what you mean overall.
I'm fluent in classical, jazz, and ska trombone, since 2004.
