Hip hop

Any hip hop album

lmao. Even dudes who couldn't read played jazz.

what does that even mean?

in all honesty, some hip-hop does have great jazz influences that might help you get into jazz

try starting with funk, very different in execution but influences are deep.

I thought that too but it's not true

Start with bebop and listen to that for a while, then go back to the stuff everyone loves, and you'll see why they love it so much.

This, work your way backwards into jazz.

Meme jazz

You're not too dumb, you're just not pretentious enough to pretend that niggers playing random garbage are geniuses.

:^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^)

yeah jazz is all just about mellow vibes right dude?

>Too dumb for an entire genre of music

Further proof that the meme of Jazz being for smart people has permeated our entire culture.

...

Dave Brubeck & Stan Getz can cure this Dizzy Gillespie too.

When in doubt, Afro Cuban Jazz is so good, if you don't like it... you possibly hate music all together.

Smooth jazz and fusion are probably your best bets for truly getting into Jazz as a whole.

I got exactly what you need, OP

No one is too dumb for jazz. If you don't like it, that's one thing, but it has nothing to do with intelligence

>

if you like it or not that's one thing, but you can 'get' it or not and that has everything to do with intelligence

it has more to do with knowing music theory, not being intelligent

interesting how people just say "knowing music theory" instead of specifying anything about it

this user's got a point. Jazz theory is pretty different from other ideas

Knowing musical theory helps on appreciate jazz because it makes the best jazz bands seem like they're operating with some sort of telepathy.

you didn't specify anything about what "knowing musical theory" is in terms of jazz

Jazz is pop, it's not intellectual or anything

Bebop is trash for a newbie, most of it is wanky garbage

You either get into swing/trad or free to get into jazz, bebop has always been more specialist

i rec some memerap my man

It's jazz for people who are too stupid for jazz, which is perfect for this thread

As a jazz musician, I can tell you that a bunch of us are fucking idiots. There is no such thing as being too dumb for jazz.
