I wouldn't call something with 5m views and 100k likes "underground" tbh. But that's just how I see it, you're free to have your own understanding and I'm not saying it's unwelcome or against the rules. Just wanted to share my opinion and explain why I disliked this particular one.

I mean, Coltrane, Mike Patton stuff, etc is on this com, so, while JPEG has a big following, he doesn't get radio play, and his listing on the billboard charts are far lower than those two.

edit- not to sound like an aggressive statement. which I think it may have come off that way.

Good point. I'd agree — Coltrane, being a legend of jazz, isn’t really 'underground' either, at least on a global timescale. It’s more that jazz — especially free jazz — has become underground and largely unknown in the last decade or two, compared to earlier times when it was more widely recognized.

Yeah, but I will whittle the scope down a bit. Most of what I post doesn't get those numbers.
