      @@roosterslime9430 @Jonathan Mio He didn't even win honorable mention... Even if his solo is based off Ellington's it was performed extremely well and I think he should AT LEAST gotten honorable mention... Besides I've heard plenty of solos that are based on someone else's solo and they won outstanding. Bass should have gotten outstanding and Luca should have gotten honorable. I would be happy with that

      I fr have no clue how they judge sometimes. There are times where I believe it’s accurate and there are times where I feel like people didn’t get enough credit. I’m not a jazz expert though, so idk how they judge musicality.
