>be me
>classical pianist of 7 years
> 8 hours practice a day

>chimp out in front of mic and a camera
>millions of dollars profit, gets all the good bitches because he is black
It just hurts so much to not be appreciated as a classical musician. Fuck rap. Fuck all this fake bullshit.
>be me
Lost interest there.
If you're so fucking smart how come you didn't realize music is 80 percent about image?
It is because your dynamic control is shit.
for young impressionable people this is sadly true
>make music that no one enjoys
>think that it's good because somebody told me so
>m-muh injustice!!!!!
unironically kill yourself and stop posting here.
>play music no one enjoys
That's where you're wrong, kiddo
You can still dye your hair and those fags money with little effort dude
If you want more profit then make music that the masses want to hear.
I practice for hours, while these brutes rap and dance and get all the love. It is an injustice. I am a supreme Gentleman. But they just don't see it. My piano bench cost $300.
>this
keep your head up! nigger music is just a passing trend, classical musicians are eternal
I guess you're either not that good or uninteresting. no one cares about 5435th recording of the same Liszt etude made by some no name pianist. Go play in a jazz band or something
You can work hard and play good music, but don't expect anybody to care or appreciate it. People don't appreciate good things.
Literally all pop music from country and blues to jazz and rap is about image and selling the guise of authenticity.
>playing music written for another era
>not popular in this one
>just plays etudes to show off fingers instead of writing to progress the art
>can't be that ultimate if you're completely ignored, which is not an actual trait of classical pianists (at least in their circle)
>of 7 years instead of "since 7 years old"
...
Wrong
no, all of th classical musicians i know like my playng (i play in an orcherstra)
it hurts that MOST people don't appreciate the beauty of classical music
How much of a brainlet do you have to be to not realize it's composers who are recognized. If you spent 8 hours a day composing and using modern music software you wouldn't be such a piece of shit.
A true musician wouldn't care what people think of him
Sorry, but you're the fake here.
could you try not to be a neckbeard faggot about it
So basically you're really good at covering old songs that someone else created?
The problem is that there are so many pianists playing the same music, that's why only the very best pianists become very popular. Write new music if you want to gain fame.
>"nigger"
>unironically
literally kys
>plays the same shit that's been played for 200 years
good for you bucko
why should i listen to you reciting the same old bullshit instead of listening something new?
I can't believe people fall for this bait.
That said, it really does sadden me that our current globalised "culture" is purely consumerist. It's a pity traditional and classical music arts aren't appreciated in greater numbers.
>plays the same shit that's been played for 200 years
Guess how I can tell you've never listened to classical music.
>could you try not to be a neckbeard faggot about it
Basically all of this thread.
>bourgeoisie butthurt that music became open to the proletariat starting in the early 20th century
Do you compose stuff or are you just an interpreter? If you're the latter well then good luck even I (a classical fan) am not interested in what you have to offer
Stop agitating the proles.
But that's wrong. Early 19th is more like it and the romantics were a big part of that.
That's what happens when you focus exclusively on a genre nobody gives a shit about any new additions to.
>classical
>no new additions
>classical
>a genre
top lel
bit racist
Classical music is fedora-tier.
Rap is chad-tier.
Not really. A lot of people don't separate the art from the artist
You should have just been a rapper instead if that's what you're interested in.
>alkan
>list
>ultimate repertoire
Kinda disappointed no one got this, good bait user.
>> 8 hours practice a day
No one has ever done this
Professionals and grad performance majors do this desu.
>My piano bench cost $300.
what does that have anything to do with this? you are showing off your financial status like a rapper. i just watched a rapper buy a 300000 dollar necklace your bench aint shit.
>My piano bench cost $300.
Why did you spend that much on a fucking chair? The chair doesn't help you make better music.
Also here's a thing, are you doing something new and interesting or are you just playing the same old piano songs everyone has heard before?
kek
Faggot
Rap shit is mostly shit but in all fairness modern day classical music (not counting the 20th century classical stuff) is way too far up its own ass and is kind of ridiculous
There needs to be a point that can be met halfway, though of course not with modern hip hop
Eternally irrelevant
>looking for validation from a demographic that doesn't listen to or appreciate the style of music you play
>getting upset when they don't give you recognition
Also do you realize how many fucking nobodies of rappers there are on soundcloud? Thousands upon thousands. Only a few get famous. Same thing with pianists, except pianists are actually talented so don't get pissy cause you're not in the top fraction of a percent that gets wide recognition.
>play music that is not popular
>get shocked when no one listens to you
>be you
>decide to make the best plate gourmet in the universe
>go sell it in the street full of niggers and mix racing people
>nobody buy it
>be black
>decide to buy a pre made hot dog
>cook it and sell it in the same street
>everybody and you are moms buy it
FUCK
Your repertoire isn't a measure of your ability, punk.
What the fuck is "blues pop" even meant to be?
Classical was and still is for cultural cognoscenti to enjoy. The market controls where the money in music lies. The difference is that now lower and middle classes can actually access music in a way they never could before popular music. You're a retard.
>what is bait
>what is a joke
>"supreme gentleman" what?
Hiphopfags are newfags: confirmed.
I'm not a hiphopfag, I'm just a cheapfag
>playing the piano
kek
...
based friendo
>plays la campanella like dogshit
>wonders why people would rather listen to nigger
You missed the key element of successful pop music: Marketing.
No one becomes successful in music without marketing, regardless of genre. Beethoven himself had to organize concerts and spread the word to get known locally (and to make profits)
Here's what you story really looks like:
>be classical pianist
>play some of the greatest music ever written
>everyone is too dumb or ingrained in popular music to care
>no marketing
>performances stay within the classical world but are still greatly appreciated by that world
>die having given people great music, possibly some treasured recordings or concerts, remembered hundreds of years later.
>Be popular artist
>producers helps you write a song
>market the shit out of it
>briefly make money and get famous
>die making no impact on music, forgotten in 10 years
fucking lol
>thinking either genre should be respected
sorry bro but you're just another boring classical conert pianist. do something new and interesting and then we'll talk
>its another "user never marketed himself well" thread
Its like I'm really on /ic/!
you sure put the ass in clASSical
The blues was and is pop music
Good post.
>OP got left off Bad and Boujee
mfw
I'm a classical musician, and you, pal, are the reason people hate classical music. This kind of bullshit reflects badly on us. Get the fuck off your high horse and just enjoy the goddamn music.
Throw away the music books, play g major and a minor and shout rap words over them.
Instant $$$
...
What is this, 1942? Jazz didn't develop itself then, you're right, it's still fairly simplistic dance music.
I got to hand it to you, it worked.
>Be musician
>Probably doesn't write music, just performs
>Complain about other musicians being famous and rich
>Cares about money and women
You're just as worse as someone like 6ix9ine
Top tier bait, also checked
>I am a supreme Gentleman.
Dead giveaway. This is where it all unravels.
how about u start giving concerts instead of sitting at home whining that you don't get any attention?
t.salty jobless music grade
go with the flow if you want to see some hola grandpa
Good rappers spend a lot praticing too you know? Nas used to spend hours writing rhymes, Kanye West quit college so he could improve his producer skills etc. Don't be such a whiny white boy, is just that classical music isn't mainstream anymore. Besides what do you care, no will remeber Lil Pump, Lil Yatch and all those trash rapers of today, in the same way that people don't remeber crap rapers from the 80's and 90's.
user plz, the art of music will go down with every generation. But there's gna always be "fans" of classical music, U just have 2 find them. And U can always be tricky and make Normies/Fags which listen 2 shit-hop listen to classical (like movies and series for an example). And that's how U make money
