In this video, I'm breaking down a jazzy hip-hop solo from one of my recent Instagram videos.

It's a mix of jazz, hip-hop and neo-soul using a mono synth lead sound.

I walk you through the entire solo, breaking each part down explaining how to play it and more importantly, WHY it sounds the way it does.

We cover topics such as pentatonic scales, approach patterns, chromaticism and phrasing.

Enjoy! :)
