Ichika is a fraud

[Eazy-ESP]

So he's doing that here.......



I don't fucking think so..... He's playing live, in front of a real crowd and actually playing better than mostly everyone else alive out of 8 billion + people on the planet today.....


It's not his fault he's not just above average and even when compared to the top 1%..... Above them on average as well.... a truly once in a lifetime if that type of player.....


I don't think people understand that or appreciate that and it's easy to talk shit and say this and that but yeah no one here or anyone at all can play like him.


That shit just ain't fake yo

I honestly can’t tell if you are trolling or 14 years old or what anymore.

Fair enough. Can't really argue with the fans, so all good.

Is the song just 35 seconds long? And there definitely is a backing track doing the drumming.

I did note that when he pressed something before doing the tapping where there was this loud humming noise, which most of us mortals encounter when we play.

Well I don't get it.....

Dudes playing live, he plays better than even the best 1% or the best players alive today........


How is it his fault the rest of musicians aren't as good as him or probably ever will all their life as hard as they may try.....


Not everyone gets to wear the brass ring and aside from that again dude plays better than the best and better than most 8+ billion other people alive today.....


He's just better and it's not his fault

I don’t see it. But ok.

 

[The~Kid]

Well I do and well.....


Hows it Ichikas fault an average person or even an above average person can't play as good.

We can't all wear the brass ring unfortunately and that's just the truth and he's also more talented than mostly every other player alive today.....


It ain't his fault he's better than everyone else alive today out of 8 billion + other people at what he does. He's just better

At this point this is a witch-hunt of sorts amongst players asking such questions......

I mean sure you can but okay......



He's just better than you, me or the top 1% of other players alive today

You know you’re right. I’m going to go as far as to say he does play better than all the other humans. He plays as good as a… computer!

Maybe.....


But he is human and he plays better than anyone else alive today..... And 8 billion + other people alive today musicians beings amongst them.....


It ain't his fault he's a human robot..... And he's just better than everyone else

 

[sondoke]

Fuck him....... and why can't I be Ichika

Honestly, the way you’ve been dick-riding this kid I’m not sure you aren’t Ichika

I don’t know who he is, and don’t really care, but regardless of his actual talent level at least one of those vids posted earlier was some obvious Milli Vanilli type shit.

Well it's obvious right.....

That no one else here could play better than him live..... Or on the internet respectfully..... This is his realm in 2026.....


Let alone anyone else alive on Earth and well yeah...... Maybe he's Jesus Christ in carnate on guitar.....


But in either case that shit seems pretty real and well fuck me if he's not the best player alive today right or better than even the best as everyone seems to agree. He does what's impossible...... To the average person or even the best 1%..... And compared to them and again everyone else alive today Ichika is better in terms of playing......



Fuck him right...... Why can't we all be Ichika......Because not everyone gets to wear the brass ring my man......


Its like starring at the TV at Lebron James or Shohei Ohtani or Lamar Jackson and saying...... "Why can't I be like him!?!"


Because you just fucking can't and not everyone is born with natural talent, skill or can be as entertaining unfortunately

 

[Zado]

This is gettin weird.

 

[narad]

Not sure if it's sarcasm or crazy, but it's certainly annoying.

Are you really gleaning that this guy is the best guitarist in the world from two 30 second live clips?


Honest question because I can't tell if you're trolling or actually serious about this

 

[Racerxrated]

He's like the biggest influence and "guitar hero" guy, like yngwie or EVH was, for zoomer kids

And he literally cannot play like that and fakes his shit

So a whole generation of guitar kids are going to be trying to do something that is literally impossible

He's no different than Milli Vanilli.

If he's a fraud, he's a fraud. That's some serious lying bullshit that needs to be called out.
I totally agree with all of your points. No redeeming quality whatsoever, and I don't care 'if' he inspired anyone. He's a lying fake.

Third option: the kid's high as a kite and nothing is penetrating the cloud of smoke around his head. I had a similarly "interesting" exchange with him in a thread last year, and that turned out to be the reason. Now, I wonder if that doesn't explain most of his posts.

 

[Devin]

If that's the case it certainly ain't weed he's smoking

Especially THOSE two live clips, hahahahahahaha

I understand that for some RTers who aren't exactly as far along on their journey to mastery, it may be difficult to tell the difference in CR (for the D&Ders) or power level (for the DBZ guys) between the "Ichika" in the slick instagram videos, and the actual Ichika in the uncut live performances, but it's like comparing final form Friza to mr Popo, or a Mane to a Tarrasque.

I can only say that it's absolutely glaring and obvious to everyone who is capable of actually analyzing it.

Which is what makes it infuriating.

Because this dude has signature guitars, millions of dollars, and is widely regarded as The Man© the way EVH, Yngwie, etc were by the younger dudes, and those younger dudes don't have anything to aspire to because it's all fake.

 

[watson503]

You remember Rings of Saturn?

Unfortunately, I do and actually Lucas Mann was one of the first I thought of when reading this thread

Another serial faker who doesn't deserve a single thing he's stolen from the guitar gear universe

I laughed so hard at that "live video" that's clearly a guitarpro backing track. This is why silent stages are for fakers and pussies.

Like, I am not anywhere near the best guitarists in the world, but everytime a fan from the crowd posts a video of me playing I know 100000% that it's actually my tone and actually my playing.
