How can i make my drums hit harder

Battlecat and Rockwilder come to mind for hard hitting drums (on topic).

didn't tip do a lot of production for havoc?

I know Tip did some beats on the Infamous LP, but by Hell On Earth it was all Havoc. Then by the time Murder Muzik came out Alchemist was holding down quite a bit of the beat duties. Although with how friendly they all were I'm sure some were same room collabos.

tip gets into it on that same interview posted earlier... he mentions that havoc would already have a beat done but would ask him to fix up the drums for him... so q-tip ended up having a hand in a lot of havoc's beats aside from his own on the infamous.

I also suggest mixing your drums first, and also learn about parallel/New York compression...

also stereo widening... and again EQ.

Get your EQ right

When you're tuning your drums for layering try not to look at the screen too much. Use your ears. Do what sounds right instead of doing mathematics on the screen.

Good samples, alcohol, an environment you feel comfy in and a creative mind.
