Surprisingly this only took me like half an hour
He's a hack a jack of all trades a master of none
Amazing ❤❤❤
Tell me you had a solid and healthy childhood without telling me you have no trauma 😅
I'm rolling my eyes when I hear him say he's too smart and imaginative...but my face hurts because I'm smiling too hard.
You can’t not love this kid 😊
And about being authentic
I waited 7 minutes for him to talk about being a genius
Why did you decide to wait seven minutes only to listen to the first 30 seconds? That’s odd.
I can sit and watch him speak for literaly days...This kid is a true gift!
I could listen to Jacob talk for hours... He understands people so deeply because he is so connected to the purest emotions that he can be understood by everyone, even those who know nothing about music. That is his genius.
4:35 - i love his little laugh at the rhyme lmao “dimension of intention”
Thankfully he didn't bury who he was to fit in. We've lost many potential genius' due to not accepting who they were. "Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid".
All what Jacob is saying here is that.. We all are "genious", just live your life and do what makes you happy, It all falls if you start pleasing others.
If only Jacob and avicii could have met and talk especially about the last part.. Jacob could have helped him and he perhaps would have seen a new perspective at performing and even living.
"Less is only more when you know what more is, and then you can make a conscious decision to step back from that."
He seems so pure and innocent. I want to see him wearing that hat.
he's just autistic, its not really genius, its just a lack of pruning.
He truly is of an Artistic genius
So incredibly well said Jacob! What a guy...absolute genius and explains the mind of a creative person so well.
Your title for this video is so fitting! :)
Children think all of their ideas are good. That’s why all his Music sucks. Everything he says drips with ego
It’s amazing, overwhelming, scary even to think what the world could be if everyone were brought up to believe in themselves.
I'm very late to the game of experiencing the genius of Jacob Collier. Beyond the obvious genius, what I am so very impressed with is his utter truth to his own reality and experiences. I've heard him speak of his mother and her encouragement, so I doubt that came about completely by accident. As a much older person who has live much of his life in conformity to certain expectations and conventions, I feel the old like "young people these days!" is a positive, and hope filled, sentiment here. Thank you, Jacob, for teaching this old guy valuable lessons about being true to one's self.
Seltsamer Titel. Er spricht überhaupt nicht über das Thema Genialität.... Ja, aber er ist wirklich das was ich ein Genie nennen würde, in all seiner Großartigkeit! Und das macht auch eben den Unterschied zu all denen die als genial bezeichnet werden, aber weit entfernt sind von einem echten Genie, wie Jakob eines ist, offensichtlich! Was weder heissen muss dass ihn jeder verstehen oder gar mögen muss.....
He is so articulate! His thoughts are very helpful for me when I organise things in my mind!
get that stupid thing off your neck.
Really? I think it’s cute.
I’ve seen a majority of the interviews of both Elon and Jacob and It’s quite insane how many parallels run between them. Their brains never stop turning with ideas, they’ve both transformed a lot of the conceptions prevalent in their respective fields (Engineering and Music), they both have an odd senses of humor, they’re both unbelievable in their humility, especially with what they’ve accomplished (and always give credit to others without ever trying to take the spotlight), they both highlight honesty and truth as elements of morality and virtue (which I think you can’t argue against) and lastly they’re both on the spectrum. Aspergers/autism are terms that have a lot negative implications attached to them, but I think you have the people like Jacob and Elon who are able to just do great things and turn the derogatory term on its head. One last comparison is that they both give me so much hope for a brighter future, they make me believe things will turn out fine even when things appear to be dismal. Can’t wait to see what they bring into the future.
Elon can be a troll, so I think Jacob has much higher emotional intelligence and more genuine on more levels imo.
“I’m going to be me today and it doesn’t really matter if you like it very much. It’s just nice to see you.”
I want to be like this in the world.
Rather hear Jacob tell me about what he had for breakfast, than listen to 99.9% of celebrities drone on. He is not arrogant. He is a genius, it's who he is, he can't help but being the genius that he freaking is, and I love it.
His brain is so full and crazy I love it
The most frustrating thing is when you can hear something you want to play and can't do it :(
my brain writes music that I cannot do with my physical dexterity, I totally understand you.
It's exiting too because it gives you something to explore and work towards. Better have the idea and needing to work the technique than having good technique but no ideas. So keep it up:)
He's so intimidating! I almost never really feel intimidated, but I think I have now met the feeling lol
You never feel intimidated? Haha well that’s a lie isn’t it
@@MilitaryEdits300 Uneasy 'cause I sense some sort of impenetrable assholeness (no pun intended, or maybe yes)? Yes. Intimidated 'cause someone just feels brilliant in a lot of ways? Not often, no.
Dude! I went to see him at the Blue Note NYC back in 2017. At the end of the concert he stayed around and I was able to say hi and take and take a picture and stuff. I was VERY nervous! Even shaking a lil bit, and unable to speak more than a few words. Mind you, Jacob is a couple of years younger and physically much smaller than me. Looking back I think it was silly that I acted that way - Jacob was super cool and approachable. But it just felt like I was there, present at that very moment, but at the same witnessing a historical event.
Less is only more when you know what more is , truely true
confidence paired with humility is very powerful.
most powerful inspirational thing ever

jacob collier is the type of guy to hear his girl moan and say «thats a f#»

Lmfaooo
Shut up
Lol lol
"dimension of intention … hehe" 💕
Yup he definitely has adhd or autism or both. But why tf cant i do this thenn😭😭
could he be the chosen one....?
Calling him "genius" feels like "OMG it's too good, there should be only 1 in a million people like him" But I think it's just an human that used its brain to build itself such amazing musical skills and theories, and so I believe that anyone out there (unless major brain deficit) could understand him and reach his level, with maybe a delay depending on motivation and other factors
nah he’s a genius
@@emnersonn Everyone has the right to call him what they want. As a musician, I don't consider it as a genius because I know how anyone could be like him.
@@shlubshlubbweh3515 maybe everyone could physically be like him. I mean if i just practiced a bit more i could be him. Maybe a lot more. But what makes us see him as a genius is that he is who he is. Not a lot of musicians are like him, not to be mean to you. But i dont think you are like him. Neither in personality or in musical sense. And I'm definitely not but im okay with knowing that. I am sure that Jacob is enough of a genius to call everyone else around him a genius. Which i see as quite a genius way of treating others. Which not a lot of people do. Combined with musical theory, and combining that with musical sense. I mean just listen to what he said in the very end

@@me1ody69 @melody 💜 I understand and maybe my words weren't precise enough... I don't mean I "know the holy truth", I mean that Jacob publically said that it loved to try stuff, and that he used to sit at the keyboard for hours to try all sort of things As a musician myself, I think anyone making music is likely to get fears of being "wrong" : "What if my stuff is trash?", "Do I really master music?", "What do people think of me?"... In other words, as humans, I think pretty much everyone could want truths, something to rely on safely... And to me, there is nothing in my brain that could ever be 100% true, the proof being that I couldn't ever tell if my brain itself isn't controlled by someone else. This is just an extreme example, but in short, as a musician, I ended up accepting that there could always be stuff that I don't know, and so I don't fear to get into musical stuff I never did before, guided by logic reasonnings mixing my own music theory and my experience, which helps pushing my own music theory further and further. And it made me think a lot, experimenting all sort of stuff : If I used to do something, I would try something different and see how it goes. I think Jacob Collier would be pretty much of a similar type : trying, exploring, and building its own music theory on that experience... And I don't think anyone with a functionnal brain would be unable to experiment what they don't know, so that's kinda the reason why I don't consider Jacob as a genius... (Well it would mean I'd be a genius as well, and I definitely dont think so - More exactly, if I say publically I'm a genius, regardless, people would be "ah shut up kid" :'D , the truth is, I don't know). I think practice isn't what made Jacob how it is. Practice is pretty much only working on knowledge that we already have. Jacob probably practiced a lot, but it didn't take all its theory just from practice, in my opinion. (I respect that anyone could have different opinions than me tho, please feel free to think whatever you want out of that)
Pero que tipazo 💘
I love this
