It's an oldie from 2015, but I still think about it whenever people talk about being talented at something.

No doubt, but imo "natural talent" is way less common than just people who have put in the work, at least for musicians in my experience. For every person i know that just started rippin shit from when they were 3 years old there's like 20 more folks who have just put in the hours. I also think some people who seem to have that natural talent it's more like they just were immersed in that environment from birth. Music is a lot like a language; you can always learn a new language as an adult but people that grow up speaking it because of their environment will make it look effortless.
