This somewhat relates to Husserl?

That comes from his experience at Juilliard. A teacher said something similar and he told her it’s not like that.

Indeed 💯

I think the interviwer also was not really on top

Another YT commenter trying to sound smart by making generalizations that don't really make any sense.😂

I was thinking the same thing!

Word to cicely tyson.

Chase Isaac why do you mean?

@@daphneepaul3737 He was married to her at some point I believe, so she would have some of it in her possession.

It's his adhd and why he chose heroin and blues

i'd name it intense here-ness, compared to lot of others

Nah. He comes across as an utter douche dressed like a clown thinking he's cool.

@Nat You and Rodrigo should star you're own chapter of Assholes Anonymous, you've got the president, and vice president right there!

@@jivanbansi9640 can i come? Ill relapse enough to make it worthwhile.

@@RodrigoRamirez-eq6gj What a disgusting comment ! This man was one of the most influential jazz musitans of the 20th century, and dressed the way he wanted ! What greatness did you achieve Rodrigo !???

Fuckin right

Pimpin

@@ComradeLeonTrotsky That's rather crass. This is high end fashion that has been recreated in current times. So no pimpin is just an awf description. No offense.

😂🤣👊🏽👊🏽😂 thank he not? Nigga cleaner than a mosquito petah !

Mate its late 80s thats how artists rolled...let aside davis...

Is that actually true lol or are u joking?

@@markjohnson3413 no hes not miles art is rare and expensive

Yeah!

What I would give to have an original Davis

Doink. Not wrong.

No we really dont 😂

True Dat!

We have Miles Davis. Listen to his records all you need to learn is there.

blah blah this generation this, this generation that man, we have our fair share of greats. and we'll probably only acknowledge them ten, twenty years from now.

Miles Davis appeared in the right time, now his talent wouldn't be acknowledged. His thriving in the middle of the last century gave us the opportunity to enjoy the genius's works now and evermore

It's a profound thought. How would we live if we did not have the background anxiety of destitution and even death hanging over us at all times? Subtle for some of us, and overt for others. It interferes with people, makes them neurotic. It does constant invisible damage to us all. In some ways freedom is more important than happiness.

Wish I could be that way 😕

hahaha

😂😂

😂

Why would someone tickle a grown ass man?

@@lauraveney1412 are kidding. Lovers tickle one another. That person did not say he/she wanted to tickle him.

kinky

@@lauraveney1412 why not

What a unique definition of deadbeat.

That's the name of his sound, 'Cool'.

he would cringe at what is seen as cool today

Ir that a moral attityde fore kidds . ?

@@kentholm1414 Yes, it's in their culture now

Toka Reva you can tell it’s so annoying

lmao, so true

Most critics and journalists are asses very few provide any insight other than exposing an issue or individual

Yup, MD touches upon some profound and interesting things in some of his responses, but instead of following them up, the interviewer proceeds with banal questioning about line-up changes. What a wasted opportunity.

Mr. Miles: Are you turning into a frog?

Thinking the same. It’s disturbingly clear even.

@@maldoror5750 its called cocaine

How does it feel to be so self-righteous?

White America is "the Devil". I know this and I'm white. It's everything that goes against the soul.

My dad was a Dr and my mom was good lookin' -Miles

@skyboundpilot Thank you -I think?

@skyboundpilot I don't think we have to bring up slavery and lynchings because as far as I can see -most black people stay detached from white society because they can see it's a farce. Notice that all sorts of white people imitate black music, culture and mannerisms but that black people don't imitate white people. I'm curious to see what will happen between the two cultures .

He beat every woman he ever had. They had a many sleepless nights.

@@deemaverick987 good

@@IA-yi3zy ???????! The fuck?

He was a nutcase. No need to put him on a piedestal. Just another human with ups and downs.

@@IA-yi3zy miles was on that sigma grindset

Miles Davis is known as one of the twentieth-century’s most influential musicians and a key figure in shaping modern day jazz. However, many Miles Davis fans and admirers would be surprised to know that the pioneer was a man of many diversified talents; one of those being painting. 21:12 Source: PBS Org

drummerschild beat his wife and was a drug addict. Musical genius but acknowledge his dark side

I know, a normal person would be like, I need some space an quiet to produce my art. Lol

yes he's very precent and in the moment. good interview.

Deep yes, beautiful? Hmmm not what I've heard....

,

Always innovating, always thinking about the next move.

maisha cherry He was actually a huge fan of Prince

And Michael Jackson all unbelievable talents

Gemini vibes! 💯♊

@Tony Exactly MJ was a good entertainer but he was not on a Miles Davis or Prince level.

@@lauraveney1412 this

@Certyfikowany Przewracacz Hulajnóg Elektrycznych Kerry didn't even play legendary riffs as Jeff did, let alone could last ten seconds w Miles Davis on a solo calm down.

What did Miles Pass away from??

He had a few health problems...the biggest would be Sickle Cell Anemia. He developed osteoarthritis relatively early which led to a pain pill then full out heroin addiction. Along the way he developed diabetes, had a stroke and continued to battle an on and off again drug addiction. -- He had pneumonia when he died...which could have been a result of the Sickle Cell...stroke, diabetes, addictions or ware on the body from all three. -- Because he died so early...I would say that it was a combination of things. - He did a lot with himself in the short amount of time that he was here.

Yvette B. Yep, I love the way he improvise, I wish great artist wouldn't die so young. Thanks so much for the info.

EVERY post -colonial citizen in this WORLD has Some sort malady dealing with this "CIVILIZATION",whether they know it,or Not,and when you're "BLACK"AND Creative...Well..

@@knowledgeispowerfful I read that he had a heart-attack while discussing/fighting with a doctor during a hospital-stay. He was 'ill' and in hospital quite often and took a lot of painkiller.

But he doesn't address the real problems in black communities, family break down, no Fathers. Miles was a brilliant musician but he's obviously racist himself.

FranktheTank70 The problems in the poor black communities are causes by what?! Racism. People often times confuse racism with prejudice. Prejudice is hating someone because of their background and skin color. Racism is making sure members of your race, own and control access to hospitals, banks, justice system and so on. A racist can be married to a black person, let's make that clear. But he will not make a black person CEO of his company. A black person cannot be racist because black ppl don't control anything, at least not in America.

@@StressFreeCity Oh please, who ever makes the bread, get's their choice of sandwich. I'm from a black community, spare me, there are cultural breakdowns across the board. Blacks were doing so much better before welfare Roosevelt made them dependent.

@@FranktheTank70 I don't disagree with you. I'm not quite sure how you're turning this into an argument when we're saying the same thing. What race was Roosevelt? White!!! Blacks were never doing better, which part of Beverly Hills do you live on?!! Visit any hood in America and just drive around and come back and talk. I'm telling you what I've observed and no you're not black.

Not sure why idiots like you think that because black communities have their own problems they don't get to talk about racism. Everytime someone mentions racism, you people are quick to say "but what about crime and fatherless families?". What about them? Who says that's good? And it's not like White people are doing great either, they also have rising single motherhood rates, but I don't see you whining about that

Why would he be sad, sad in his soul?

@@deepthoughts1739 someone doing drug like he did, is not a happy soul, f.ex..?

@@malenedietl3369 Actually, some people feel happy when they do drugs. You didn’t know that.

@@deepthoughts1739 stfu he became a junkie cause he hated himself

🤣🤣🤣

that swag he got""loving it""😎🎺💋

What’s unique about his complexion?

him and frank would clash i feel

@@liamshope2838 There is a story i read the percussionist in Franks band " Ruth Underwood " ,in the interview Ruth said Frank tried approaching Miles to speak with him about Miles performing a complicated Trumpet piece titled The Bee Bop Tango,according to Ruth Miles was a complete asshole who was full of himself & knew nothing about Zappas ability to write music for a specific musicians talent that would push them to doing their finest work,she said that Miles being such an asshole it turned Zappa"s like of Miles into a deep hatred for how Miles shit on his fans,i believe i read the interview in Rolling Stone in the late 1960s or early 70s,so your prolly right about the 2 men not getting along .

@@liamshope2838 I couldn’t agree more.

I still wear shoulder pads with no shirt underneath on the daily.

@@Flux799 u should give that up. u be hurting my eyes with that 80's glitzy mess L:A. hollywood flash futuristic Star Trek EWF look.

The 80s.

Serge Gainsbourg is probs the closest

Funny Mac Miller brought me here...he was a while vibe too. Great artists and souls. 💖

@@MysticalRainbowKaci Mac Miller is so great 👍💯

Thelonius Monk sadly true, people hear Miles Davis and they say “who?” It’s all about lil pump in America.

@@Jonnyguitar1877 these kids have no idea and im only 36 and my daddy always made sure i appreciated all genres of music! I love hip hop but miles Davis is one of the forefathers of free spirited musicians! They need to put some RESPEK on miles' name!

Personally, I don't hear Miles Davis and say "Who?". I listen to Miles Davis' music and say "So What?". My father, a jazz trumpeter, respects Miles' art. I just don't care much for it. And I've been exposed to it since I was quite young. One day we went to one of his concerts at the Woodlands Pavilion. His set was supposed to be the main attraction. Basically what we got was 40 minutes of the man sticking a purple trumpet down between his legs while we watched his posterior pointed towards us. I guess he really told us off.

What?! Lol

"him & I" Talking bout supersoul & individual soul.

I couldn't agree more

Prince of Darkness, that what they call Miles...

One of the artistic names that I most appreciated at 47 years old! 22 Listen aka Prince of Darkness! 👑 Thanks HEALTH & MUSIC & ARTS 💯💥🔝❤️ It s one of My Hobbies & Profession of Mudicologista! The. m aka Antihero_8. PEACE OUT. Man! Or Mr.

Thanks 4 Your attention! PRNCE OF DARKRNESS, 🔝💯🙏💥 AKA it s Perfect like the Talent! I never forget now the

@@alfredomiranda8654 I read Miles autobiography back in the day, and at that time I didn't appreciate the Classic of Jazz, only smooth Jazz at that time. But after listening to his band in live concert, and the beautiful sound of Time after Time blown by Miles horn, wow he was something special as an artistic director. You gotta listen to " Dunne Mosse" live. That's magical ❤️

Both Gemini

You should learn to write in past tense... As in, he rarely "GAVE" and ....when he "DID" and ....He "GOT" this boring and ....Miles "WAS" so watchable... You know, because the man is DEAD!

Miles only give you what he wants you to have.

He was just trying not to overstep because of who Miles was. Anymore and he might have lost him.

@@shlapleps3306 someone gets it

A Woman.

@@NathanielLongchallon When we hear his tunes, isn't that the first thought we put our mind on?

Hate to say it but he was probably going to pull a rail of something.

Patrick mardas he said STFU

@@patriciagullickson9591 lol

we are the original...

...every human can be like this... to be Proud on the Color of your Skin is dumb....on every side

@@Sydswahili exactly!

Thank you! I was wondering...
