Why is jazz no longer part of the pop scene?
"Because music doesn't matter anymore. People don’t care anymore about the music itself, they care about who makes the music.
The public is more interested in celebrities and how a certain artist is more famous than music.
The way audiences relate to music has changed. She no longer has a metaphysical connection with music and its quality. she just wants the charm.
Jazz doesn't want to be part of it. Do you know why? It's not about humility or arrogance, a position "we don't want to be famous, we are 'underground'", none of that. Jazz is about the human soul, not the appearance.
Jazz has values, it teaches us to live in the moment, work together, and above all to respect the neighbor. When musicians get together to play together, you need to respect and understand what the other person is doing.
Jazz in particular is an international language that represents freedom, thanks to its roots in slavery. Jazz makes people feel good about themselves. ”
- Herbie Hancock
