I've been playing bass 4 42 years it's not so much about competition. I've been around mono and Victor. Both started playing at like 4. Both are phenomenal. Mono is the young new cat Vic is 52 now all tricks aside. Vic can go places I've yet to see Mono go. But Mono will get there that simply comes with maturity. It's easy to try to discount one generation to the next. It's obvious Mono is great but it's obvious that he has been watching Vic closely and defining himself in his own right. I wish nothing but continues success.

6 years ago huh, Boy you realllyyy underestimated Thomas hahaha, right after you made this comment he started dropping amazing songs Edit: and to be fair, mononeon is definitely going way further than his dad has gone, which isnt really fair of me to say, I don't actually know anything, But I do know mononeon is everywhere right now, and I ain't never heard of his dad, Hell I went to berlin this year, and while I was there mononeon showed up on tour, blew my mind, but berlin IS the city of musicians after all,

@@selfactualizer2099 How did I underestimate him. In 7 years he has matured and set his own course and career as I stated earlier. Bass players don’t have egos. We love to see growth especially when we see someone as gifted as MonoNeon, Thundercat, Mohini Day and the next wave of bass genius’s.

And so his bass career begins. I was introduced to him through a KZitem video of him and Marcus Miller live at blue note 2022, just about 4 weeks ago and I’m thinking who’s this dude hiding behind Marcus but plays with such attitude next to Marcus. And I’ve become an instant fan of Mono. Phenomenal self taught magician.

I just learn about mono in the last few weeks; WOW! I grew up around the corner from the Wooten family (and I think Vic would agree), music is freer today in its theoretical expression than it was in the 70s! Thanks in part to Vic! (aka Rubber Band Man! WHS Talent Show circa 1978)

I watched something about mono and it was saying he uses a different type of bass guitar, where he has strings on there that are (I forget exactly what the notes are called) off key. I'm not sure if les plays one of those but yeah I would say mono hands down is more funky then les. but if we are talking slap bass les is up there I don't know who I would put above him.
