How is Flying Lotus so good at making music? It seems like he started out as yet another producer making J Dilla type beats then he came out of nowhere with all of these wonky electro hip hop beats that were hot as shit. I just don't get how he progressed this much in such a short amount of time. Is it the Coltrane blood that made him like this or just extreme talent? Or am I missing something else

hes makes a lot of music

has connections to pop rappers like kendrick and joey badass but the older jazz musicians respect him

has thundercat to constantly collab with

the progression from 1983 to you're dead! is insane tho i agree

If you followed his discogs you would know he was gradually progressing and his adult swim stuff was always wonky
Thundercat and others were good collaborators for him

I think similar to Zappa, his style has a lot of personality, which makes him memorable.

Imagine either of them playing any genre. it's possible, even though kind of silly in some cases.

It's his autism probably, he had his own copypasta about it a few years ago.

You can feel his love for Milkyways in his songs.
