![We clearly must have Mozarts today, and at least a couple of them probably got the same upbringing he did to nurture their skill and talent, and we would therefore have:
* a musician of significant talent, dedication, and skill,
* who can write music across a bunch of different contemporary genres,
* who explicitly draws from the work of other musicians to build their style, and
* who is willing to do the musical equivalent of shitposting and wear fancy outfits while doing it.
I can only conclude that the modern day Mozart is Weird Al Yankovic.
I will not be taking questions.
