[00:00.000] 作曲 : Christian Garnier/Benoit Gallet/Lilian Doyen[04:18.655]Yo, whats up this is Tre Hardson[04:22.679]Also known to y’all as Slim Kid Tre[04:26.486]The topic for today is uh[04:29.605]The influence of jazz[04:33.346]Now, jazz has come a long way[04:37.000]Back in the days[04:37.675]There was bebop[04:39.456]And now its hip hop[04:42.062]Jazz was revolutionary[04:44.841]And hip hop is also revolutionary[04:48.282]Unlike rap[04:50.233]Rap’s not really getting the message across[04:53.433]Like our forefathers[04:55.670]Like the Gil Scott-Herons, you know[04:58.536]They paved the way[04:59.396]They set the pace[05:00.083]They set the tone[05:01.298]Like the Last Poets[05:03.837]All of these are great people, great minds[05:07.366]To do things to carry the torch of our ancestors[05:11.224]And to let us know what’s really, really going on around the world[05:15.969]Hip hop has definitely carried that torch in a positive way[05:21.763]Rap was a vehicle for stopping the violence[05:25.125]Just as jazz was back in the days[05:28.475]Back in the 60s, back in the 30s[05:30.296]Quincey Jones, McCoy Tyrner, Grant Green[05:35.942]Wes Montgomery, Elvin Jones, Miles Davis[05:40.929]Eric Gale, Phil Sanders, Freddie Hubbbard[05:47.656]Billy Higgins, Jimmy Smith, Wayne Shorter[05:54.244]Ahmad Jamal, Thelonius Monk – all big influences[06:01.511]For what it is that we do[06:03.465]And what it is that we are[06:05.161]As we take our stance in music[06:08.179]Jazz was also like a secret conversation[06:12.410]I mean, it was a universal language[06:15.257]So no matter what culture you came from[06:17.974]You would still hear the music[06:20.632]And feel the story even if you didn’t know the words[06:24.102]In hip hop[06:26.101]We have to put our all into it[06:30.373]So you can feel the energy coming across[06:35.493]Just the same as the saxophone player[06:37.628]Who played with the same intensity and feeling[06:40.627]And that’s what we’re all here for[06:43.361]To feel that love and vibration music[06:45.853]To uplift the people, indeed[06:54.222]So that is indeed an influence on me[07:01.030]
