Herbie Hancock

"Why is jazz no longer part of the pop scene? Hancock: 'Cause it's not the music that matters anymore. People don't care anymore about the music itself they care about who makes it. The public is more interested in celebrities and how a particular artist is more famous than music. The way audiences relate to music has changed. He no longer has a transcendental connection to music and its quality. he just wants to glam Jazz doesn't want part of it. Do you know why ? It's neither about humility nor arrogance nor a "we don't want to be famous, we're undercover" position. None of that. Jazz is about the human soul, not the appearance. Jazz has values, it learns to live. the moment, work together and most importantly respect each other. When musicians come together to play together, you have to respect and understand what each other is doing. Jazz in particular is an international language that represents freedom because of its roots in slavery. It makes people feel good about themselves. Herbie Hancock
