It's a a known psychological phenomenon that people who have a lot of skill/knowledge in something will say they know very little (in part because they're aware that there's much more info out there to gain). And when people aren't very skilled at / knowledgeable about something, they tend to think they're much better at it than they are. The thing is, that belief that we're awesome at something even if we're just beginning and we suck at it, that encourages us to keep at it!

Theres loads of musicians who are insanely talented song writers but maybe they can't do something very technical on their instrument.

It may look stupid or even impossible to rate them when they all play different instruments but any musician who's ever played in a band or at least played with the class will eventually get to know how good someone is regardless of instrument.

It's cool that he put himself out there, but his piano playing was just a basic four chord, not even with a pattern. His vocals weren't majorly high or low, so the only thing that would save his performance would be the songwriting. On the other hand, all other musicians showed incredible musicality, like extremely talented. The only other person that included singing/songwriting would be the girl with the guitar, but her vocals were amazing. So if there was indeed an audition process beforehand, the casting directors set him up to fail imo.

Why can't people just tell the truth like "I give you a 6 because you really suck at this", without "but I really love your passion and other bullshit"

[@Erickhetfield]

This situation has nothing to do with the meaning of the "curb your" meme. Ironically, this video itself shows a lack of self awareness.

[@UraniumFractal]

What’s the issue? He complimented everyone else’s performances and took getting 6th perfectly well. Just because y’all have no self-esteem, doesn’t mean you should shit on others for having some.

He probably focused more on the idea of being a musician versus the continuous work. He reached a small goal and it went to his head. I felt bad for him but I hope this situation humbled him.

Over generalize much? What kinda hair you got? I think this is more about him being a hipster douche than hair color.

[@jaydawg4732]

I would agree but have a friend with blue hair and she is one of the smartest person I know. PhD in computer science, founded her own organisation that was acquired by a university and now works at Google. But maybe she's the one exception?

This is why as musicians, you don't bullshit. I think it's pretty safe to say that most musicians know where their level is at and try to flaunt more than what they have. I mean, that's my own experience at least and the other musicians around me.

[@MyFictionalChaos]

If you guys actually watch the video, even the ranking here is messed up because it was based on IG likes and not their own ranking. Their ranking had Mary as the best bc they were all fond of her. If you read the comments on the video youll realize most people think Summer is the best because she is a professional pianist. Regardless, they were all still LEAGUES better than my guy Blue Hair. But the ranking here is still not very accurate

[@isntitrich000]

But why, why do they have to put these people through this

[@CStayNZ]

The thing is, you need to have a lot of confidence in your ability and believe you’re better than the rest to succeed in entertainment. Don’t be humble until you make it. Confidence gets your foot in the door. Good for him for ranking himself high.

[@josephsherby]

There’s a difference between confidence and delusion. While you should be confident in your own abilities, you also need to have an accurate perception of what your abilities are and how they match up to your peers. Confidence without talent is just empty arrogance.

[@DC-YumpyYotemeal_4026]

Why are so many people in the comment section dissing anyone with colored hair? You know a color doesn’t define personality right? That same idiocy is what racism is based on (not that hair color and racism are anywhere near the same, but the concept of judging someone off of color is big tantrum energy. Cope and seethe, cry about it, it’s just hair)
