@@ninjaaron I'll have to disagree. Talent isn't much, if effort isn't put in on a daily basis. Jacob grew up in a musical family, without him constantly practicing/playing/training his music from a young age or having the music background that his family does, it's hard to say we'd see the same performance. For me, effort/time is the determining factor. Also, while there are some things that require talent to get into, I think music is one of those where it actually doesn't take much, the only issue is you often have to start at a young age if you want to really get good at it quickly. There are many things that are much easier to learn at a young age (like music and language).

I would have never thought he'd have that sonorous of a voice. Damn.

You could reply with, “Yea most of us would be music “geniuses” if we were born in musical families and pushed to do music. And had family that paid their way through everything. Might not make the same music but music would become so good that we would have too much to listen to.” Unfortunately that’s not the case and not everyone obtains the guidance this young man was given.
