Im doing a project on violinists and i chose Sarah Chang! i think she is extremely talented and i wish to be as good as her some day. <3 malibumonkey99
@Sim882 when youre at such a high level you dont really "improve". you can grow as a musician, but sarah really had no faults back here. she just plays differently today than she did back then, and will continue to change throughout her life. she is only in her early 30s
The probability is : Millions of all ages " Practice and desperately try to grow some ears ", but still only a very, very, very Few are outstanding ! So, those who are outstanding, those very Few, must have been born with something that cannot be explained !
Chang has also been been a soloist under the baton of conductors Mariss Jansons, Daniel Barenboim, Sir Colin Davis, Charles Dutoit, Bernard Haitink, James Levine, Lorin Maazel, Kurt Masur, Zubin Mehta, Riccardo Muti, André Previn, Sir Simon Rattle, Wolfgang Sawallisch, Leonard Slatkin, Michael Tilson Thomas, Placido Domingo, David Lockington, David Zinman, Gustavo Dudamel, Valery Gergiev, Esa-Pekka Salonen, Jaap van Zweden, John Williams and others.
@unnoticedpasserby At age 8, Sarah played with Zubin Mehta and Riccardo Muti, who worked with the New York Philharmonic and the Philadelphia Orchestra. In 1991, when Chang was 10 years old, she recorded her first album, Debut; it was released by EMI Classics on August 18. In 2006, Newsweek ranked her as one of the Top Eight Achieving Females in the United States.
@unnoticedpasserby OMG, OK!! So what? I don't want to read you. Repeat it for me here. You can leave. You have a rightto leave. Look around, nobody welcomes you. Please go away. N please do not reply to me. Please. G.O. A.W.A.Y.
@unnoticedpasserby It is the Sir Menuhin who said she is "the most accomplished". Many people believe him. If you think it is unfair, go fight him or whatever. Why troll here?? You are marginal.
@unnoticedpasserby Dissing Sarah? Man, what's with you?? She's been established "already" and "long times ago" by critics and public all together as a child prodigy and a genuine artist. Are you even aware how moronic you sound??
You are just belligerent fagot, find woman to release, what a disgusting shit lol
By your comments you reveal yourself to be a bad tempered, argumentitive person with a very nasty streak who resorts to abuse if you cant get your own way. You can never answer a straight question with a straight reply eg No1knowledge asked you how many times you had seen Sarah Chang in a live concert and also as to why you think you are are anymore suited to give opinions than any other people on youtube. Youtube has always been open to all comments and replies.
You are a typical argumentive type in that you can never answer a question in a sensible and logical manner. All you can come out with now is silly childish comments that I am an Ape. You cant answer the sensible questions that I asked of you. Also since when did youtube become a forum where people were not allowed to reply to others comments without permission ? Where did you ask permission to speak to Lovemetu when you posted your sarcastic reply to his comment !
Your comments just ape / copy many other critics comments. I wonder how many times you have actually been to see Sarah Chang play live in concerts and why you think that you anymore qualified than other youtubers in judging Virtuoso Violinist's ratings ? Sarah Chang is one of the most popular Violinist's in the world and has become a multi millionaire by hard work, constant practice and has achieved a massive fan base by reason of her brilliant playing and star quality.
Recordings and videos of Sarah made at a very young age would seem to confirm that Sarah Chang is the finest child progidy ever. We all have our own opinions but Sarah Chang remains one of the most popular violinist's in the world, performing many world wide concerts, I was lucky to watch her astonishing performance at the Royal Festival Hall in london in April 2011 where she had the audience in raptures at the end of her performance of the Bruch violin concerto.
@unnoticedpasserby LOL stop saying "illusion".... man. what's with you? Ooookay, you think she is not the most accomplished at the youngest age, and her musicality stops growing somewhere. So I heard your opinion very well. Just go now.... bye~ :p
Rather than wasting your time posting negatives about others far more talented than you can ever be, then why not do something else with your life then, being as you think you know so much about being a violinist then go and learn to play the violin yourself and post a few videos on youtube.........of course that day will never come !!
You call others self opinionated but you are the most self opionated off all !!
You go on making a lot of negative about Sarah Chang, a person who was a child progidy violinist and who also continued to work very hard practising and playing throughout her life with no break to become the virtuoso violinist that she now is. She is a world star and what are you, just a youtuber with nothing better in your life than time to abuse talented people like her.
@unnoticedpasserby Nobody stops growing. Human insatiably grows, his senses, thoughts, wisdom, depths, idiosyncrasy, and musicality, of course. EVERYTHING gets maturer as one getting old. Don't play with words.
Of course my comments are my own opinions, the same as your comment is your opinion, but I think you will find that the opinions I have stated are shared by many. Yehudi Menuhin who knew Ida Haendel and was no mean player himself and also a far better judge than any youtuber, stated the following of Sarah Chang when she was about 9 years old ''Sarah is the most wonderful, the most perfect , the most ideal violinist I have ever heard''
Sarah is now 30 years old and is a Babe to look at, with wonderful features and a sexy hourglass figure. Thats not just trick photos , I know as I have met her in person after recent performances for autograph sessions etc. She is a very educated Virtuoso violinist who is also a small, pleasant lady with impecable manners.
@supercalavagilistic, how could you say such an idiotic thing? I mean, do you have normal sensory detectors and evaluation skills? Apparently not! No, you are the shit!
Okay, regardless of her amazing technique and playing, the blatant emotion exploding through this movement from this 12 year old girl is simply remarkable.
How could anyone dislike this..?? She was playing one of the hardest concertos in the violin repertoire at the age of 12..!! and people don't like this video..??? Must be jealousy.!
Wow indeed. I much prefer Sarah's playing to the stiff mechanical, clinical and emotionless playing of Heifetz. Music has always been a portayal of the inner human emotions and feelings and Sarah has this natural gift of expression which few others can match. I think she could play for most of the time blindfolded as you will notice that she rarely looks at her fingers, eyes shut as if in a trance, perhaps an inner self is playing as her mind and soul wanders in some heavenly place !
Sarah Chang is the finest Violinist in the world bar none. She seems to produce such rich tones others can only hope to achieve. I read that this amazing lady at 12 years old managed to learn the Tchaikovsky violin concerto in only 2 weeks, does not seems possible to me ? Some critics say she moves to much in her performance ,but I think when you are at her level the artist can express themselves in their feelings and enjoy the music . Bravo sarah, long may you live to give us so much pleasure !
Sarah is wonderful, seen her play live twice in the last year. I notice you are from Japan and the Orientals are great classical musicians, very dedicated to learn to play in such a perfect way. There seems to be so many wonderful Lady Violinists from these eastern countries, to name but a few ...Akiko Suwanai, the young Lina Matsuda, both from Japan, Clara Jumi kang, Hyun-Su Shin and Yoo Jin Jang all from South Korea
and ''Little Miss Violin'' eg Yi Jia Susanne Hou of Canada.
@lovemetu thx for your kind remarks. Yes, of course i love akiko. i saw her at Shanghai last year. do you know she is the one of the most innocent looking musicians in the world :p i mean really~ haha
i hope i could meet sarah some day. btw you know more asian violinists than i do UK man :p
Thanks for your message, Well just type some of these amazing lady Violinist's names into youtube and you also can enjoy a feast of wonderful violin music from these gifted Oriental Violinist's !!
Its only after learning and playing the violin that you realise how amazing these fine artists such as Sarah Chang really are and to be at this high standard at only 12 years is so amazing. They are in another league to the dumbo instant singing reality shows so called ''stars'' of the modern times that we now live in. Fame to these people comes and goes in the flick of an eye but the young, screaming hysterical fans are so easily fooled by the modern day dross that passes as music.
I got to meet her last night at an LA Philharmonic concert!! She was so freaking amazing and such an inspiration. I'm a young violinist and it was so great to see her play.
Please explain , yes a video of Sarah Chang ,when she was a small 11 year old girl playing Tchaikovsky's violin concerto in four parts on youtube for aprox 30 minutes, one of the hardest violin concertos to play ....................and then ?
@dkurgano are you kidding? poor taste? you obviously have no musical experience. and we're playing this concerto in my symphonic orchestra, i see the music everyday i think i know what im talking about
Sarah Chang is a virtuoso violinist and after seeing the youtube video of you playing you are obviously not . Keep practising and in a long time you may get to the level she was at 10 years old if you are lucky !!
That's gotta be the most amazing concert they have ever attended. Oh how I wish I was there at the moment! This has to be one of the most moving videos on youtube. Such musical perfection in one so young. What a privilege for us to witness such an overwhelming musical gift from the gods!
What is even more amazing is the fact that we are not simply born with such talent but acquire it through great effort, discipline, training and dedication. Sarah's early exposure to music, harmony, and good training made her who she is. For some it is easier to thing that most people are born with it... because the alternative is very difficult... WORK!
@munerangus Some people are most definitely born more musically inclined than others. I know many people that are tone deaf even with musical practice and lessons, and others that don't have to work as hard to master a piece as most do. However, work is most of success.
superb..but still Itzhak Perlman is the best violin player alive according to me..a similar video is available at youtube of Perlman when he was 13 years old playing a piece of Mendelssohn
Not to be racist but it makes me happy that the best violinist in the world (Joshua Bell) is Caucasian because as a violin, viola, and cello player myself I have noticed that most string players are Asian. I am 14 years old and in the youth orchestra I play in only another girl and myself are white in the first violin section...every body else is of Asian descent.
By the way great performance of Tchaikovsky's violin concerto
@Nicolasduca i watched some of your videos and your not bad but your about nyssma level 2, based on some of the pieces you played (if your not familiar with NYSSMA, its the new york state school music association. It rates pieces on a difficulty from 1-6), I've been playing since 1st grade so ive worked my way upto 6. So from this I come to the conclusion that Joshua Bell is better better because he interprits the piece exactly as the composer wanted it. I also prefer his tone to that of hahns.
I dont play pieces anymore, i supose you mean my improvisations. I plan to get better but just to be able to express better myself (less limited). Its not like i dont like a perfect interpretation or being a virtuoso, its just i dont want it for myself.
@LazyDogsProductions i havent been reading your comments but sometimes personal interpretation can make something more interesting. sometimes it makes it horrific, but one should reflect oneself in the music one plays.
@MrRightguard56 its cause the asian culture pushes children more as most white people end up quitting orchestra around high school. thats the case for my school and many around it
Not many people would agree with you that Joshua Bell is the best violinist in the world, that is your own personal opinion . In the more informed music circles there seems to be general agreement that the finest ever violinist was Jascha Heifetz. There are a select group of ''A list' violinists at present and Sarah Chang is in that group along with a few others. She was a child progidy and no child before or since has reached the heights she did at such an early age.
@MrRightguard56 it isn't a racial thing, I think asian kids are more prone to practise classical music than white kids, that's all. I don't think it's anything to do with genetics or ethnicity.
Flatass privileged straight white christian males choose other flatass privileged straight white christian males along with a handful of extremely talented Asians so the flatasses can say they have "persons of Color" in the orchestra (in a divide and conquer strategy). This is fake diversity. Black folk are vastly underrepresented in euro classical orchestras and need to play 100x better to be picked. It's typical ameriKKKan racism all over again.
She is so talented. :). You guys also need to check out FERENC Illenyi, one of the best violinists of all time. Especially the Cadenza he wrote for this piece. Out of this world. Also check out BidsWOW.com
Sorry, but it makes me mad how some 39 people can dislike this, when I bet they couldn't even play like this in their 10th year of playing violin or whatever instrument they play, or were so close to the music as Sarah Chang is here. Sorry I just don't see how some people can dislike this greatness.
@k73f um....if u never noticed she has many more problems which cud be sorted out, such as the her bowing and the tone produced in some areas and her holding on the bow is horrific. The grip she uses will cause strains to wrists (see Oistrakhs or Heifetz performance). Also the position of her left hand fingers when vibrating are in bad positions such as when the 3rd finger is vibrating, her 4th finger curls up, this is really bad for the bones in the hands, so their are many problems to her perf
Not bad actually as she was so young at that moment.... that she could not give us a sense of sadness (impact) that Tchaikovsky would like to have (I tasted a young girl's feeling in this play). However, she did it after she became more mature...
Regarding blacks being held back...The ONLY one who holds back the black male is the black male him self. That ''bad white christian'' nonsense is getting old. Slaves were sold and owned mostly by Jews...Just READ the true history books. Blacks have a different emotional intelligence and do not act rational under stress on average which is cause for their trouble. NOT one field except for sitting jail and some sports blacks that will ever out perform White, Asian or Jewish counter part.
Hi, just realise that you get a lot of 'Experts' on youtube.
A certain 'Internet Troll' on here says she got success due to being privileged, well lots of rich and privileged take musical lessons, but that does not get them to the standard of this exceptional girl, playing here at the age of 11 years old.
Some people have a lot of critism about Sarah Changs technique, you must then wonder if they are such experts, why is it they are not up there performing themselves ?
@no1knowledge Yes I agree. If you are privileged you can afford a nice teacher but only the passionate can get this good. You have to believe in your music and love it for what it is. Second, I agree. As others have said for different videos, "There is a reason why it is this artist and not yourself." I think that these trolls should just stay in their little corners. Bravo to you and Sarah.
Thanks for your reply, if you look further down the comments here you will see who the ''Troll'' is !!
I along with many others Like Sarah Chang a lot and I cannot understand why she should get adverse comments because of her race, upbringing or of her standard and techniques of playing.
I think she plays her music beautifully and any fair minded person would agree that this is an exceptional performance, taking into consideration that she was only 11 years old at the time.
@SeanMinn God gives people bugger all talent. In that he doesn't exist. But that's another comment for another discussion, you're entitled to your views, I'm entitled to mine, those being this is a cracking piece.
@SeanMinn I'm sure she worked her ass off studying 4 or more hours per day, day after day, year after year. It's not innate talent what makes the difference, but great teachers and super hard work.
I care for nothing else but the music, and what my ears hear is something divine. A small girl awkwardly makes her way to the stage and yet commands it as a woman. A conflict in appearance that makes what emerges all the more moving.
For me Heifetz is the master. It seems effortless, yet for all his percision it rings as a clinical adaptation. Sarah is less percise but filled with passion. An intangible thing that breathes life in to the chords. Both are amazing, tchaikovsky would be proud.
The small girl became a virtuoso violinist and will be 30 this year in december.
Yes Sarah plays with passion and a love for her music. There cannot be a better version of this by such a young person,Sarah was only 12 at the time !!
But of course this is all a mind game to you. You have created this shadow of a person, just a character who is known only to you in your own imagination.
You are just acting a part out in your head, just here to annoy others.
There is a slang word for this ....Internet Troll.
@aishiteimasstrify Jascha Heifetz is considered by many to be the best violinist of all time, and he doesn't move around like a clown. I'm not a fan of her movement. I think she's wasting energy that could be put into her sound.
@thinkreddie, Chang is a person of Color and hence has rhythm that heifetz the straight white male stone cold icicle could never feel. She must move around, even minimally. She keeps it far more real than gelid heifetz could ever do. Her superior warmth makes one of her 64th notes infinitely more superior than all the notes combined which heifetz played in his career.
The modern "Heifetz".I saw her play this work years ago at age 12.She played it every bit as well as she is here at age 15 I would guess,being a very tall,mature looking girl for her age even back then.The only difference in her playing now is the added body movements which gives her a more confident appearence,even though her sole intension is to produce a stronger sound.But she sounded just as well as a meek, slighly nervous 12 yr. old who stood almost motionless with her body by comparison!
(sigh) no offense to sarah (shes a great violinist) but we dont see those legends anymore like heifetz, oistrakh and no one cant seem to reach their level of playing
@SueTheMoon, Chang should be playing a native Korean instrument, but since she's a person of Color she's still ten times better than heifetz or oistrakh since she has the soul which they lack.
Listen, you euro classical fetishists: You fail to see the subtlety of the greatest musical and poetical genre invented in world history, hip-hop. You're just looking at the superficial apects of it. As your musical taste matures beyond the infantile stage (i.e., euro classical), you'll start to totally accept my view and the view of young people around the world. People of Color now dominate the ears of most young people on this planet except for the ignorant.
@dawg00000 Ok, let's clear things up a bit. You're contradictive in your statement. You state the fact that as musical taste matures, people will start to accept hip hop. Then you state that it dominates most young people on this planet. So are you stating that young people are more mature than older people? That's my first point.
Second point, I do appreciate the art of hip hop. With artists like atmosphere and Ghostface Killah, I agree that hiphop is an important art form.
@dawg00000 (Continued) But to state that classical music is inferior because people of color dominate and it is widespread attacks my pride as a musician. To be down to earth, mainstream hiphop truely popular only because in this society, all we like to do is party. With strong beats that keeps people moving, it doesnt' matter what it sounds like as long as any whore can show off her booty for a man. Noone focuses on the beauty of music. I don't think many of the hiphop artists know music theory
@dawg00000 (continuted again) To me, mainstream hiphop is just shit. Good hip hop is great poetic sequences on good beats. But to demeanor classical music as infantile form of music is unacceptable. If you want mainstream hiphop? go to a club. Want good hiphop? look up some local artists, they tend to be the best. Want to listen to classical music? then sit down and shut up.
@yami8221, euro classical is legitimate but reflects an immature taste in music. Once a person matures she will appreciate the rich diversity of hip-hop.
@dawg00000 I dont see that many of the people that you describe on youtube,it tends to be young people of all races of the world,open your eyes and visit a few more videos. As usual you silly old thing, you have not replied to 95% of my 2 replies to you below ? Hope you are enjoying the wonderful relaxing sounds of the young Sarah Chang playing, you must love her so much the amount of time you spend on this video listening to her !
@dawg00000 Please do me a great favour,can you send me some of your favourite hip hops via the youtube share ,ones where you have done comments on recently.
There must be LOTS of them as you must spend a lot of time on the internet watching hip hop. Then I can see your side of the music debate .
@lovemetu, I believe in supporting real artists, i.e. hip-hop composers, by buying their CDs, nor ripping them off by just listening to them on youtube.
On one hand you spend lots of time listening to Sarah Chang and making mostly negative comments and yet you never listen to hip hop on youtube, the music that you are always promoting ?
You are a person who's views are not to be taken seriously !
@lovemetu, You asked me to send you favorite hip-hop pieces I've commented on, etc. I don't comment there because that would be preaching to the choir. I support hip-hop composers by buying CDs but persuade those outside hip-hop's warm community (we're like a family) to stop being brainwashed and leave a genre (euro classical) associated with imperialism and colonialism.
So extraordinary. Beyond perfection.....

Wow indeed. I much prefer Sarah's playing to the stiff mechanical, clinical and emotionless playing of Heifetz. Music has always been a portayal of the inner human emotions and feelings and Sarah has this natural gift of expression which few others can match. I think she could play for most of the time blindfolded as you will notice that she rarely looks at her fingers, eyes shut as if in a trance, perhaps an inner self is playing as her mind and soul wanders in some heavenly place !

Sarah Chang is the finest Violinist in the world bar none. She seems to produce such rich tones others can only hope to achieve. I read that this amazing lady at 12 years old managed to learn the Tchaikovsky violin concerto in only 2 weeks, does not seems possible to me ? Some critics say she moves to much in her performance ,but I think when you are at her level the artist can express themselves in their feelings and enjoy the music . Bravo sarah, long may you live to give us so much pleasure !

Sarah is wonderful, seen her play live twice in the last year. I notice you are from Japan and the Orientals are great classical musicians, very dedicated to learn to play in such a perfect way. There seems to be so many wonderful Lady Violinists from these eastern countries, to name but a few ...Akiko Suwanai, the young Lina Matsuda, both from Japan, Clara Jumi kang, Hyun-Su Shin and Yoo Jin Jang all from South Korea
and ''Little Miss Violin'' eg Yi Jia Susanne Hou of Canada.

Its only after learning and playing the violin that you realise how amazing these fine artists such as Sarah Chang really are and to be at this high standard at only 12 years is so amazing. They are in another league to the dumbo instant singing reality shows so called ''stars'' of the modern times that we now live in. Fame to these people comes and goes in the flick of an eye but the young, screaming hysterical fans are so easily fooled by the modern day dross that passes as music.

@munerangus Some people are most definitely born more musically inclined than others. I know many people that are tone deaf even with musical practice and lessons, and others that don't have to work as hard to master a piece as most do. However, work is most of success.

Not to be racist but it makes me happy that the best violinist in the world (Joshua Bell) is Caucasian because as a violin, viola, and cello player myself I have noticed that most string players are Asian. I am 14 years old and in the youth orchestra I play in only another girl and myself are white in the first violin section...every body else is of Asian descent.
By the way great performance of Tchaikovsky's violin concerto

@Nicolasduca i watched some of your videos and your not bad but your about nyssma level 2, based on some of the pieces you played (if your not familiar with NYSSMA, its the new york state school music association. It rates pieces on a difficulty from 1-6), I've been playing since 1st grade so ive worked my way upto 6. So from this I come to the conclusion that Joshua Bell is better better because he interprits the piece exactly as the composer wanted it. I also prefer his tone to that of hahns.

@MrRightguard56
Not many people would agree with you that Joshua Bell is the best violinist in the world, that is your own personal opinion . In the more informed music circles there seems to be general agreement that the finest ever violinist was Jascha Heifetz. There are a select group of ''A list' violinists at present and Sarah Chang is in that group along with a few others. She was a child progidy and no child before or since has reached the heights she did at such an early age.

Flatass privileged straight white christian males choose other flatass privileged straight white christian males along with a handful of extremely talented Asians so the flatasses can say they have "persons of Color" in the orchestra (in a divide and conquer strategy). This is fake diversity. Black folk are vastly underrepresented in euro classical orchestras and need to play 100x better to be picked. It's typical ameriKKKan racism all over again.

@k73f um....if u never noticed she has many more problems which cud be sorted out, such as the her bowing and the tone produced in some areas and her holding on the bow is horrific. The grip she uses will cause strains to wrists (see Oistrakhs or Heifetz performance). Also the position of her left hand fingers when vibrating are in bad positions such as when the 3rd finger is vibrating, her 4th finger curls up, this is really bad for the bones in the hands, so their are many problems to her perf

A certain 'Internet Troll' on here says she got success due to being privileged, well lots of rich and privileged take musical lessons, but that does not get them to the standard of this exceptional girl, playing here at the age of 11 years old.
Some people have a lot of critism about Sarah Changs technique, you must then wonder if they are such experts, why is it they are not up there performing themselves ?

@no1knowledge Yes I agree. If you are privileged you can afford a nice teacher but only the passionate can get this good. You have to believe in your music and love it for what it is.

I care for nothing else but the music, and what my ears hear is something divine. A small girl awkwardly makes her way to the stage and yet commands it as a woman. A conflict in appearance that makes what emerges all the more moving.
For me Heifetz is the master. It seems effortless, yet for all his percision it rings as a clinical adaptation. Sarah is less percise but filled with passion. An intangible thing that breathes life in to the chords. Both are amazing, tchaikovsky would be proud.

@aishiteimasstrify Jascha Heifetz is considered by many to be the best violinist of all time, and he doesn't move around like a clown. I'm not a fan of her movement. I think she's wasting energy that could be put into her sound.
thinkreddie 1 year ago
@thinkreddie, Chang is a person of Color and hence has rhythm that heifetz the straight white male stone cold icicle could never feel. She must move around, even minimally. She keeps it far more real than gelid heifetz could ever do. Her superior warmth makes one of her 64th notes infinitely more superior than all the notes combined which heifetz played in his career.
dawg00000 1 year ago
The modern "Heifetz".I saw her play this work years ago at age 12.She played it every bit as well as she is here at age 15 I would guess,being a very tall,mature looking girl for her age even back then.The only difference in her playing now is the added body movements which gives her a more confident appearence,even though her sole intension is to produce a stronger sound.But she sounded just as well as a meek, slighly nervous 12 yr. old who stood almost motionless with her body by comparison!

Listen, you euro classical fetishists: You fail to see the subtlety of the greatest musical and poetical genre invented in world history, hip-hop. You're just looking at the superficial apects of it. As your musical taste matures beyond the infantile stage (i.e., euro classical), you'll start to totally accept my view and the view of young people around the world. People of Color now dominate the ears of most young people on this planet except for the ignorant.
dawg00000 1 year ago
@dawg00000 Ok, let's clear things up a bit. You're contradictive in your statement. You state the fact that as musical taste matures, people will start to accept hip hop. Then you state that it dominates most young people on this planet. So are you stating that young people are more mature than older people? That's my first point.
Second point, I do appreciate the art of hip hop. With artists like atmosphere and Ghostface Killah, I agree that hiphop is an important art form.
yami8221 1 year ago
@dawg00000 (Continued) But to state that classical music is inferior because people of color dominate and it is widespread attacks my pride as a musician. To be down to earth, mainstream hiphop truely popular only because in this society, all we like to do is party. With strong beats that keeps people moving, it doesnt' matter what it sounds like as long as any whore can show off her booty for a man. Noone focuses on the beauty of music. I don't think many of the hiphop artists know music theory
yami8221 1 year ago
@dawg00000 (continuted again) To me, mainstream hiphop is just shit. Good hip hop is great poetic sequences on good beats. But to demeanor classical music as infantile form of music is unacceptable. If you want mainstream hiphop? go to a club. Want good hiphop? look up some local artists, they tend to be the best. Want to listen to classical music? then sit down and shut up.
