Oh no... one of my favorite Norwegian violinists, Alexander Rybak moved to L.A. and NOW he's playing hip-hop? 😱

...even says sh*t in this song - definitely goes against his 'wholesome' image (not that worse words haven't come out of MY mouth 😔)!

I love that Hip Hop and many other alternative music styles interest you, and others on this site. It helps creativity and opens the door for new styles and sounds from our future violinists, not to mention openness of the idea to other music styles. When I was growing up, it was mainly classical and jazz.
