Thx for actually answering my god damnen question. I think it was well answered.
I was not comparing da j-boys tech to volodos, but just showing that what da volodos plays isnt as difficult as it may looks. as a proof for that I mentioned da jemboy playing da volodos transcriptions.

to be able to play Volodos transcriptions like JB is very different from playing it like Volodos himself. I can play Islamey, doesnt mean its not difficultā¦
Volodosās Thaik 6th/Feinberg recording is sl*w. 
-da Meph
Volodos: 9ā20" or thereabouts
Bear: 8ā 15" or thereabouts
koji
why does volodos always look so fuckin dissapointet when he plays? and he lacks charm. fuckin fat mofo.
-da Meph
Lacks charm?? I really cant agreeā¦
I like Volodos a lot. Heās a very sensitive musician - probably one of the best pianistās alive today.
His Tchaikovsky-Feinberg Symphony is quite excitingā¦ Bermanās is just unbelievable though.
Oh, I love his performance. The first cd by him I heard was his Rachmaninov 3rd piano concerto. That was respectable and really magnificant.His technique is natural and fluent! 
Volodos started playing when he was 16.
damn!
I have just realised that Volodos is a fucking legend, indeed is fury and touch is amazing 
-da Meph
exactlu, he started playing at 16, so how did he achieve the level he is at today??? dat is wut i have asked many of u but noone ever answers meā¦
wut did he play for pure tech? how much did he practice? wut pieces did he practice? some of u must knowm as a lot of u know alot of sheeyatā¦
and how many years until he became a star???
HAHAHAH WTF DA MEPH
u were a fukin unlegendary hatah of da volodoz, wat made yo change yo mind?
because Volodos rocks
from da wikiā¦
āThough he had played the piano from the age of eight, he did not devote himself to serious study of the instrument until 1987.ā
he used to be a singer. its not like singers can practice 8 hrs a day (or so ive always thought), so he probly had a lot of spare time in his youth to get furious on da piano. probly he randomly started to kick ass, some profs noticed and said ādis mofo is the shit, quit singing you fat mofoā den da vol shut the fuck up and became a SDC legend.
erhhhā¦dats not dat helpfulā¦wut did he do for tech, repertoire etcā¦
hanon n chopetz fo tech
bach fo zightreadin n countahpoint
dayum, exactly wut im doingā¦minus da hanon of course
listening without prejudice.

I havenāt heard him play alot of āseriousā music. Hiz tranzcriptions get boring so fast. I regret buying dat cd. Also, he needs to give up the HO tranz, he just canāt compete. I did like his Rach 3 though, but at the same time, I didnāt feel it gave me anything I couldnāt hear elsewhere.
