Michelangelo playing Runaway by Kanye West for his piano final

Hi I'm Michelangelo and this is me playing Runaway by Kanye West for my piano final

[Michelangelosrubikscubes]

Hello, my name is also Michelangelo lol

[michaelralph]

idk why I genuinely expected Italian Renaissance artist Michelangelo to be playing kanye on the piano

[antonclark]

The fact that he's a turtle makes this so much more impressive.

[dan]

For a second I was hoping this would be 16th century Michelangelo playing Runaway, but this was even better.

[cmalki]

love that you wore the all red fit to be in full character

[jacobfarabee]

I know michelangelo IRL and i came to share a fun fact. he is not actually playing the piano in this video - in fact, there is a dwarf monkey (pygmy marmoset) that we trained to pluck the right keys inside of the modified piano.

[danieldanielson]

I was waiting for him to press the “LOOK AT YA” and the “Ladies and Gentleman” key

The algorithm has brought us here today to see a homie play Kanye, see you in 6 years
EDIT: I set a reminder in my calendar for 2027 early March, keep notifications on and stay alive and well lads :^)

[MichelangeloCozzo]

Thanks for the love guys; tune in next week when I'll be playing Runaway by Kanye West on the didgeridoo

[dinglemccringleberry]

referring to yourself in third person huh, how kanye of you

[Milesthehumanman]

And nobody in that room knew he was playing one of the greatest songs of all time

[SuraDoes]

Hearing this stripped down made me realize how talented of a musician Kanye is. He can be proud, boastful and arrogant, but he does have talent. Can’t deny Kanye’s influence and impact on music and pop culture throughout the past two decades.

[hide_on__bush]

the echo of those opening notes gives me chills

[fightthefeeling]

Dude I love how pianists and musicians appreciate Kanye’s art.

[MrBreadisawesome]

Who else heard kanyes autotuned voice and the strings come in at the end and wanted the outro to start lol

[leeon-oyfl]

the red suit was a nice touch, truly iconic

[gromitx]

Why is this getting recommended to people now

[ryanfisher]

As a pianist I can say that this song is actually a hard piece to play when it comes to timing. I would need to have the sheet music in front of me lol, so good on you!

[manipulatingsound]

I was really hoping you'd just play the first note over and over.

[Bxrry]

The algorithm why have you done this to me
