Right? I don't understand OP's thought there. Plenty of jazz still innovates. Look at the impact Robert Glasper and Terrace Martin have had, especially with Kendrick Lamar, over the past decade. Innovation is there if you're

It's all-encompassing; there are way too many of us and, on the whole, we kinda suck.

You said it yourself - it'd be nice if YouTube stopped and thought about what it could be doing differently to not drive as many people towards things like this. As I said elsewhere, the root cause isn't the people developing thes
