If jimi hendrix made music today

[IronJesus]

Ok so lets say his musical career started in 2011 nothing happened behind this point in terms of music for him, everyone is listening to this auto-tuned shit because it's popular, now he starts right off the bat making music like this. What do you think would happen? What I think would happen is no one would recognize his talent because he wouldn't get onto the radio and he would get placed with all the alternative rock trash. What do you think would happen?

When his music got mainstream everyone would say it sucked.

I guess so too, with so many people in the music business, a long career becomes less and less possible.

This is true.

Also, right before he died. Hendrix completely changed styles and started doing jazz. Most of his early stuff was just improv, and he never got old enough to get his sound all the way down.

He'd be white and named John Mayer.

id say that he would continue to make music that made him feel good, and what got to him and his fans was his love to make a guitar houl as he changed people when it comes to being a gypsy
