I feel like that's one half of the problem, sure, but I think the other half is the lack of exposure to the musics in our communities. Have you never been to a Jazz Club where everyone is completely buried in their phones, even the tunes with diatonic as fuck lyrical heads get ignored pretty quickly.

The first time I heard fucking *Donna Lee * I thought it was absolute noise. I like it now obviously but I disagree with your assertion.
