i play guitar for like 4 years , i can hear those slides and it threw me off so much.

@@Moonmoon-ws6jo I think anyone who knows even remotely how a guitar works should be able to deduce that. How that slipped by anyone at all astounds me.

i know! they can slide from E to A w/o the left hand, and can also play 3 notes at the same time only on one string! wow

I could only wish I could do that how much easier it would be

Also, the lower E is the 6th string, and the vids have that as 1

Shut up

They are so good they retune the strings to the correct note before hitting the string!

My thoughts exactly

That is so accurate you can even make a video of that type out of this one. What is shown in the "tutorial": 2:59 What it actually sounds like: 3:16

Violin charades in a nutshell (just kidding!)

Anyone can learn an instrument by putting in time and effort. But to be proficient, you’ll need a teacher who will point out your mistakes and teach you what to do better

Ooooooooooooooooooh!

The way I see it, he is actually stealing from people who want to put in the time and the work.

There’s a leprechaun in the back retuning the string after every note

No no, piano secretly works like a brass instrument /s

Apparently, they never watched that _Simpsons_ episode where that nerd calls out that _Itchy & Scratchy_ episode for having one xylophone bar sound multiple notes. Also, fun fact: that bit was the source of the “I hope someone got fired for that” meme.

On the videos they literally play all 88 keys with only using 3

It really reminds me of those Piano Tiles mobile games that were popular a few years back

It only takes a beginner two seconds... Ok maybe 10...to figure out that this video cannot help anyone get the proposed result.

I mean, I understand if people with no music understanding want to play a simple, well-known passage... if only the tutorial's REAL :D

I mean it probably plays off the cooking video dynamic. Making things that people *wish* they could make knowing that 99% of them will never try to make it. Probably these videos want to fool people who have never even gotten within 10ft of an instrument but wish they could play knowing that they probably never will or will take lessons and give up quickly because it’s too much work. That and the videos get algorithm traction if people comment saying it’s fake

I’m sure they won’t dare to say, “alright who wants to learn Rach 3 in 1 minute?”

I am pretty sure they are just taking the piss out of "easy tutorials". I have never seen this before and I had a good laugh!

"he's not using aimbot!!! He just has a good gaming chair!"

Well, he's a child. We know how well children fare in the entertainment industry.

Here's a short refute to those saying it's good acting: "You should not report or sue the con artists that make off with your parents and your money via insurance/product scam and should praise their good acting skill that fooled you or your parents." You see hypocrisy is only effective when their own skin is hurt from the ordeal.

Woah, you wrapped it up so well! Couldn't agree more

@@verybarebones exactly

I mean, I'm gonna defend the kid. He's a child, a minor. There's clearly an adult with him, that person is the one where all the anger should be directed at. And I'm sorry, but the copyright music is the least of the problems here. The main question people should be wondering is why the hell is this adult using a child to busk on the streets. It's like exploitation basically, and is similar to the kind of human trafficking that often happens in first world countries. This isn't about stealing work, this is about why the fuck is an adult doing that with a kid, why can't that adult provide for the kid on their own, etc etc. These are the concerns that run through my mind when I see that vid, the music is like last priority.

@@xtwinni true that is a good point, I'm not saying it's the kid's fault, because they most likely don't know better, and it's true that the adult is at fault, because they clearly seem like a guardian / or have some kind of authoritative power and influence which should not have been used to gain attention or for their own profit. And yea you're right, manipulation and exploitation are bigger problems than art theft, however, I'm saying from my point of view as being a visual artist for years and have been on the internet, that I've seen art theft daily so it comes to my mind more often than probably some one who is like an engineer or something. Again I'm not saying it's the kid's fault, but the adult who is teaching these ideals and the people in the tik tok comments saying that it's ok, cause not only does this encourge art theft but the whole manipulation and exploition issues as people will most likely see it as a way to get some money without consequence or cost, and everyone knows that a lot people will practically do anything for money.

Well, maybe that kid himself agreed to such things, you can't know for sure. Anyway he is in that same age when you actually start to use your own brains. But if he was forced, then that isn't the case. And you know, the stolen music itself isn't the last priority because they make money from it and possibly teach the kid that it's the right thing to do

@@hrennvpalto he was probably pressured into it. i doubt a kid younger than 10 would find it fun to fake violin playing for hours. also he probably doesnt understand copyright lol

ikr its so bad there defending him but we should blame the parents there teaching him its ok and it will be really bad for him

You're working yourself up over nothing, mate. All this undue recognition these fake musicians are receiving really isn't worth that much. In some cases these aren't even their tiktok vids to monetize. And those that do monetize them, well... you can pretty easily google how much that amount of likes/subscribers is worth, and it's not exactly a windfall. And as buskers, I doubt if they're pulling in more than a 50$ a day with their routines. And it's not sustainable. You can't keep up that same act in the same spot all day every day and make a fortune. They'll eventually get chased out of that parking lot by a security guard and have to hump their way to some other location, set up, and do it all again. Outside in the heat, with bugs, and annoying people and cars. Are you really jealous of all that? If so, you can always fire up TikTok yourself... real musicians are also permitted to use it. Get yourself out there and rake up those sweet sweet likes if it's so easy. As a real musician you can rest easy that you'll not be stealing anything or scamming anyone. But ain't nobody getting rich here with any of this stuff. They're scrapping by with their little show, and some people throw them some likes/looks and forget about them. After one or two videos they never click on them again. It's just fodder. It's not even the same audience who would ever watch real musicians video (because it's obviously fake), so it's not as though they're really poaching the looks from real musicians. They're scrapping up likes/coins from a totally different group of people... people who want a story and performance. It's not sustainable, lucrative or scalable, because as soon as anyone started making more than a few dollars doing it, and tried to take their act off the curb, they would get sued/fired/etc. What are they gunna do, sell out Carnegie Hall? Give a TED talk? Get invited to meet the president? No. This is just scavenging, and can never evolve to more than that. Don't let it bother you. As a real musician this presents no threat to you. The time you spend being concerned or bothered about it is the probably the only way in which it actually impacts your life/career.
