Ichika is a fraud

[Zado]

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.

Fourth option: that holachica guy has the most attached fanbase I've seen since Bieber

Maybe he's Jesus Christ in carnate on guitar.....

SLOW DOWN THERE SUNSHINE. GIVE THE LORDS NAME A BREAK THERE.

Not cool.

If he thinks "incarnate" is two separate words, I have a feeling he probably isn't well versed on his christian theology bud, I wouldn't worry about it

Fair point.

 

[nightlight]

He certainly is better than 8 billion people on the planet... at guitar fakery haha

I mean, this is the social media age and he must have paid $130 for his initial videos to get a million hits. Then tech bros and their algorithm pump up their "chosen juan" with algorithms hidden in black boxes. Big whoop.

I think an appropriate analogy for the "rock stars" of today is those "pay to win" games on mobile phones.

And I really don't go for that sh*te.

 

[The~Kid]

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

Apparently everyone agrees...... What he does is impossible.....

Yet there he is doing it live..... Walking on water and performing miracles..... so yes

Whomever would’ve guessed that @The~Kid possesses the mental acuity, prepubescent fixation tendencies and tantrum prone behaviour of an average kid?

He's the Krishna then or whatever...... Point is he seems to be otherworldly.....

And do things us mere mortals just can't.

Tomayto..... Tomahto

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.

 

[The~Kid]

Maybe Ichika is proof life outside of our solar system exist and proof aliens exist.....



Because his playing is out of this world *_*

Can you not actually tell the difference between his live performances and the slick production of his IG and YT videos?

Because they are literally in two different universes of guitar skill level

 

[Hiwatts-n-Gibsons]

im watching some crowd videos of him, what exactly is "fake", and what about his playing is so impossible?? His videos dont even have that many views on youtube, the videos calling him a cheat have more views than most of his vids. im just confused lol

The second part is easy, there are way more haters than lovers on the internet.

In either case he isn't exactly playing Smoke on the Water or Master of Puppets or something.......And he's actually playing guitar on stage, live, doing "impossible", "computer/robot", "fake" things.


Gotta give credit where it's due and he isn't making that shit up

There's levels to this man, nothing he's doing in the actual live performances is impossible - it's the fake instagram videos where he's "doing" impossible techniques. The difference in skill level is smoke on the water in the live videos and black star or spanish fly in the IG videos

I hear and and there is that and I agree with you there on some of the IG stuff of course but hell he can do a lot of what some would consider "impossible" stuff live.

And I get what youre saying too and while I agree calling Ichika a fraud is kinda too far IMO, he's a pretty talented player, he seems like a really good guy and chill and respectful. I get what youre saying and all but IMO he isn't a fraud/fake and he's a top notch player and one of the best in the world IMO.

Fuck, it’s actually @Techdeth !!!

 

[Rackman]

Great when it's MIDI, mediocre to shit live.

Yup, he's the perfect model of the modern Youtube guitarist. He's the Velveeta of guitar. Anybody with a brain knows its not real. Anyone with any judgement will choose to consume something else.

That seems to be the crux of this

Great when he is miming to guitar pro midi routed through an amp sim, mediocre when he's actually on stage with a guitar in his hands with the spotlight in his face
