I sort of thought he would be one of those guys that every generation taps into in some way but he hasn't connected with Gen Z at all

All zoomer males are faggots. They don't even like themselves. Why would they like Jimi?
It's all up to girls now.

>>127084496
>girls
That's a boy, girls are not typically interested in instrumental virtuosity

>>127084472 (OP)
Zoomers have a strong dislike for chord bending and virtuosity, it reaks of boomer tryhardism to them.

Blues rock has this honest passionate expression and it's played with that "feeling" expression on the face, which zoomers find extremely lame, it's like dad music but worse

>>127084472 (OP)
why do you faggots insist your culture upon every succeeding generation like we should give a shit? genuine question

>>127084571
The boomers are too old and dying to care about posting in 4chan. Its the Gen x'rs who are bitching now.

>>127084472 (OP)
cos he had no good or memorable songs

>>127084516
Cope all you want. There's more where that came from. I'm inundated with recs of all kinds of girls and possible jailbait playing old rock tunes.
Male zoomers meanwhile just look up to rappers or like /mu/ and try hard to do this poptimist bullshit.

>>127084571
>insist your culture
Like I said in another thread, all you had to do is make something worthwhile yourselves. You put the cart before the horse and just resorted to shittalking. You need to do something first - THEN you shittalk. But you didn't do shit and will be forgotten.

>>127084472 (OP)
his style influenced so many guitarists that he became obsolete after his death. He doesn't compare to any shredder of the last 40 years. This is true of loads of artists, when you listen to their original takes on famous songs and compare them to successful covers.

They want you to fall for the same tricks that the previous generations did. One way to make this happen is to make you hate the prior generations and anything having to do with them. That way you won't listen to their warnings or when they say they've seen X before and know that Y becomes of it

Hendrix doesn't have that many iconic songs. Purple Haze and Voodoo Child, maybe all along the watchtower. His style of playing just doesn't resonate with young people like it did with older crowds. Also, Hendrix' vocals kinda suck.

>>127084472 (OP)
People love to bash clapton but get their panties uptight if you criticize hendrix.

>>127084472 (OP)
his main audience is guitar players, rather than music listeners generally. For guitar players his music is interesting for it's place in the evolution of electric guitar, but for everyone else not so much.

>>127084643
That's because women can only copy original/creative shit they don't come up with anything new/great
They want that participation trophy now when culture is in its twilight

>>127084643
The youtube algorithm recommends you more of what you clicked on before, in this case girls playing guitar. If you click on boys paying guitar they'll probably show you a bunch of those too (but their channels will likely have fewer views than their female equivalents, for obvious reasons)

>considered one of the most prolific rock musicians of all time
>most people have never even heard one single song made by him
Really boggles the noggin'.

>>127084628
reflect of thr fact that he hasn’t written a song gen Z

>>127084472 (OP)
I hate this guy because everyone says he is the GOAT like the anon said "I INSIST UPON YOU HIS GOATNESS" his biggest songs are like Foxy Lady and Purple Haze they don't even have a classic solo. Also, his classic solos seem while, Elite Level don't get me wrong but I don't see people copying them like with a say Eddie Van Halen.

It reeks of racism like of course the best guitarist ever is black! What are you some kind of alt right alabama neonazi??? Its just this entire vibe that makes new generations sick of him.

We want to believe that WE can have the GOAT guitarist, it can't have just ended in 1969 lets get real.

>>127084472 (OP)
As time goes on and music evolves a lot of these big names will have less relevancy. To me Hendrix is the greatest guitarist of all time but to the kids he's just some old 60s guy.

Because his best song is a bob vylan cover

>>127085794
His best song is Little Wing

>>127084516
>Jimi Hendrix
>Virtuoso

>>127085981
He was so bad that if you listen to Steve Vai covering Little Wing, somehow he doesn't even come close to sounding as good as the original

>>127084472 (OP)
The mixing and sound quality of those 3 original albums are horrendous

>>127084472 (OP)
The idea of a black man making typical white-people guitar music was exciting to people before 2000. Zoomers would be appalled by such a cynical racist trope.

>>127084555
Blues kept it simple unlike guitar wankers like Hendrix, Clapton or page

>>127084472 (OP)

Zoomers are the tryhard generation

>>127085913

>>127085021
Thats not what prolific means

>>127085913
His best song is Castles Made of Sand

>>127084472 (OP)
These threads are always so out of touch. As a member of Gen Z, I can confidently tell you that the only 60s artists that are more popular among my generation that Hendrix is are the Beatles and Marvin Gaye. Now, part of this has to do with the fact that Jimi is black, but I digress.

>>127092017
>but I digress.
I'll bet you do, homo

Guitar players definitely still listen to him all the time

>>127085723
He was just the first to really popularize a lot of things on the guitar like wild tremolo bar usage, extensive use of controlled feedback, usage of many effects, etc. Never before or since has there really been a guitarist who sounded that little like everything that came before. He's seen as the greatest innovator on the instrument.

because boomers only liked him as a token
>SEE we do like blacks making music if it’s good!

>>127084516
I feel like saying that females are male all the time is a way for people with repressed homosexuality to feel less guilty about it, because that would mean that everyone is, in some abstract sense, gay.

>>127084516
It must be nice having the ability to change reality by saying it's something different than what it is.

>>127084516
I think he was talking about biological girls, not whatever the fuck you're talking about.

>>127092017
Wtf are you talking about. Zoomers don't care about Hendrix or the Beatles.

>>127084472 (OP)
Hendrix was melting people faces off in the 60s, but that pales in comparision to Eddie Van Halen revolutionary way of playing.

>>127092537
Eddie invented soulless fret tapping wankery
He's probably the worst influence on guitar playing

>>127092469
They actually do like the Beatles. They're largely the reason that the Beatles are more well liked on this board now. It was the millennials who really hated the Beatles. If you looked at this board ten years ago, they were absolutely detested. Gen Z is the reason that that changed.

>>127092357
Are you saying he isn't good?

>>127084472 (OP)
Of course I like Jimi Hendrix.

>>127092537
Les Paul was tapping way before Eddie.

>>127092537
What a shitty opinion.

>>127092590
Solos like Eruption and Spanish Fly are not mere "tapping wankery", their peaks culminate into a beautiful melody that resembles classical music.

>>127084472 (OP)
60's soul-funk-rock just isn't that popular of a genre. It's not as though The Meters and Booker T. and the MGs are still hugely popular either.

>>127092590
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR3tGulLv88

>>127092537
tapping was already been used even before the 60s. Van Halen just milked it hard and made it popular.

>>127092610
Darling, mill’s and everyone here knew every Beatles song 10 years ago. We’d argue about rubber soul vs. abbey road. Zoomers can name maybe 5 tracks. Their connection to the Beatles is that lame PJ doc’.

>>127085913
His best song is Angel

>>127092537
Steve Hackett was doing the same shit before Eddie

>>127084555
Insincerity is their highest value so they can't stand anything that involves sincerity.

>>127093415
Yeah, everyone was familiar with their music, but they absolutely despised it. People on this board are way nicer to the Beatles now. It was about 2017 when I began to notice that change, four years before the documentary.

>>127084472 (OP)
Guitars aren't cool anymore

>>127094124
yeah that's the reason, not the fact he's overrated as fuck and has literally no memorable tracks

>>127084887
In the late sixties he was crazy popular.
He was the best-paid performer in Woodstock.
Maybe it was because GenX couldn't see him live.

>>127094124
More like blues rock isnt cool anymore. Guitars are still used a lot even if subtly

>>127094301
>literally no memorable tracks
You're full of shit.

>>127094381
his most memorable track is a cover

>>127084472 (OP)
>hasn’t connected with Gen Z at all

Doesn’t shock me. All they listen to is braindead, low IQ nigger rap garbage.

>>127093605
I think people like Foucault and Derrida played a way bigger role in why wokism came to exist.

That combined with Protestant guilt getting unrepressed in the whole rainbow movement.

Cobain was no source of political inspiration to anyone, as most people couldn't even tell what the hell were the words to his songs, let alone get what they meant

ITT: grandpas seething at zoomerchads rejecting their n*gger-tier "music"

>>127084472 (OP)
Hendrix's audience is mainly musicians and in particular guitarists. There are less kids playing instruments now, so therefore less of them are finding Hendrix's music.

>>127092590
His tapping isn't remotely the best of his guitar sound but I'm not the guy saying he makes hendrix irrelevant. Hendrix is psychedelic and blusier, van Halen is just straight rocking good times done to perfection

It's going to sound really pretentious but I think it's the same reason Two Door Cinema Club has more mass appeal than Real Estate or Darude - Sandstorm than Squarepusher, or Mastodon than Bolt Thrower. Hendrix's songwriting is much more subtle and easier to enjoy if you're into music and can play an instrument. It doesn't have the hooks that capture the attention of the inattentive listeners, which I don't intend as an insult but yeah

>>127097321
Yes and that’s why they worship a guy who sucks Jew dick and attacks Palestinians!

It's because they mismanaged his estate. If they had sold it to some shill gods like hipgnosis we'd be getting facefucked with it on the daily.

>>127099570
Where were you when NHH dropped? Don't act.

>>127099623
>If they had sold it to some shill gods like hipgnosis
What did he mean by this?

>>127099751
Dylan and Springsteen sold their catalogues and immediately the management company that bought them pushed for biopics that get full hollywood releases and buzz. Hendrix got a made for TV movie on BET.

>>127099804
it's because the family estate hasn't sold rights. you need expertise to do the biopic horseshit. someone's gotta go sit down in a michelin star restaurant with lakeith stanfield and boots riley

>>127090094
lyrically, you're probably right. it's strong musically too, of course, but all I mean is my mind goes more to shredding and rocking when I think of him.
although one of my favorites is 3rd stone from the sun, which doesn't even have lyrics and is musically pretty simple. but it's a stone groove, baby

>>127092284
wisdom.
plus his playing was good and he was super cool, the total package

>>127085913
>>127090094
I hear you, but actually his best is 1983 A Merman I Should Turn To Be

>>127084472 (OP)
i need proof that he's losing popularity, i like him and im young but tbf i do enjoy music with long instrumental solos, like jazz, so there's that

>>127100169
It's probably just a byproduct of the waning popularity of guitar rock in general.

>>127100169
Older artists are constantly losing popularity, until a TV episode or a random advert suddenly bring them back for a new generation.

>>127084472 (OP)
why? it's simple. it's because no matter how hard oldfags push psychedelic and prog, musicians abhorred those genres and that reached public conciousness.
a guy like Hendrix soloing all over a song will not compared to a vocalist and much less to a musical assemble. he is just not engaging.
and if you are into music, you are not defaulting into archaic guitars

>>127097142
It's just what I've observed. I regularly judge every generation including my own (millennials.)

>>127095637
They like them way more than millennials did ten years ago. They've obviously had a resurgence among young listeners. I don't know why you're so set on denying this.

>>127093415
>>127100729

Lower attention spans+he didn't he still has millions of views you're just being retarded. People like you (incel zoomers) will hate it because he got laid also because too much attention required. So same reasons you hate the vu and can. But normal people definitely won't.

But they're not. You're just a retard. That's the short answer. Zappa on the other hand is totally irrelevant same with the monkees and bitch sounds. But for a specific genre of extremely online retard sure. :)

Millions of streams to this day though. Cope and seethe little retard haha. Despite not being on YouTube at all until fairly recently aswell.

Say chuds, not incels. Unlike incels, chuds are united by an ideology.

>>127102845
I would out it the other way around? But that is who the spastic that genuinely hate him are yes. For the rest of humanity he is widely renound same with CAN same with The Velvet Underground same with The Desd whereas most people will look at you like you're retarded if you start talking about The Monkees and rightfully so. But the zoomers in question are just incels. Same with the ones who pretend to like Pet Sounds. That's gonna disappear alongside The Monkees when the drumpft presidency ends probably. Now if you jus6 many zoomees hate minorities and Jimi Hendrix was black sure but they still know who he is lol. Many would recognize funkadelic aswell and Love were used in Jojo rabbit so yeah. No you're just a weirdo. Nobody actually cares about Pet Sounds either.

>>127084472 (OP)
It's too decadent and unironically requires too much patience to get into. BASICALLY it sounds like dad wank to them.

>>127084472 (OP)
The simple answer is their time has gone, and old things do not resonate with younger generations and this has been the constant throughout history for any medium. It is nothing for them as in something cannot be interesting for people forever. Some last for long but others wont, and it has nothing to do with style or quality for anything else.
Overtime it will be like how zoomers know Elvis exists but no songs by him or anything, in a few hundred years Beatles or Michael Jackson will be known as more cultural relics of an era and their music known to a small subset of autists into 1900s history, let alone anywhere else

>>127106148
Look at YouTube shorts from the Get Back documentary (or don't, they acted annoying as fuck in it) and it's all zoomers commenting and clipping them. They have a huge zoomer audience now.

>>127107571
I wonder where the line is between a documentary being "these guys were important and here is why" and "we are making this to get a new generation to buy their music and no other reason". The MJ documentary from a few years ago felt less like a look into the last season of MJ and more of a way to recement MJ as the GOAT vs LeBron. It's kind of this weird way of trying to reassert a past generations dominance on top of the current and future despite that past generation all dying out.

>>127084555
Hendrix is not a virtuoso and that's why he got replaced by better guitarists. He was just overhyped by boomer teenagers who knew nothing about music

I love Hendrix's style and there was absolutely nobody like him. A black man doing psych rock covers of Bob Dylan and the beatles. Was a modest guy but had major "swag" to use an outdated term. Had a cool as fuck style and was one of a kind. Awesome guitarist that was loud and heavy at least a year or two before everyone else. Only The Who was as loud possibly. Shame thst tons of zoomers are just too dumb to just enjoy the music and get faggy about the blues or whatever
