It's kinda refreshing to see such a humble and talented-as-hell musician. Check it out, he's pretty amazing. Loads of other videos are listed as well, if you enjoy him at all.

It's not chicken porn, rest assured.

Oh man, Ronald Jenkees. I love that guy. What's sad is how many retards actually post negative things (but they get slapped down, thankfully!).

My favorite piece of his on Youtube is this one.

That guy is awesome.

Yeah, man... I noticed people were mocking him and name-calling; I just don't get that. Here's a guy who plays very, very complex and intuitive songs... and even offers words of encouragement to other musicians, thanks his fans, all in one video... and people pick on the guy.

I think his whole attitude is the best thing I've ever seen in a performer. He digs what he does, it's evident in his face while he plays... it just looks like he's having so much fun doing it. This guy deserves millions. And he'd probably stay as humble as he is.

(Awesome song link, too. I've yet to find anything I dislike. He did a killer Halloween remix, too!)

^-- That's the part that amazed me most about him. I guess people would write in and ask him for suggestions. He'll reply in his videos with encouragement and probably the most obvious yet overlooked advice: "find something you have fun doing and do it!"

I really wish there were more people in the world like him. And no doubt, even if he were a millionaire, I'd imagine he'd never change. Ever.

The thing I always enjoy about his videos is that--more often than not--he'd pop on at the very end and say "That one was a lot of fun to play." No doubt, watching him play it, you can tell he's actually having fun. Sure, he makes money from his CDs, but he's one of the few performers these days who is actually enjoying what he's doing--and it shows. This guy should be the permanent "American Idol." He's not propped up by a record company, he's got RAW talent, and he's actually a nice guy.

Three things the recording industry doesn't like. Sad...

He's got a few other videos where he's playing pranks on his roommates and such. It's hilarious!

I don't know if this is still the case, but last year he had a deal going on where if you bought two of his CDs, he'd sign them both.

I thought that was really freakin' nifty.
