Today's music industry is fragmented. Beyonce is massive but her audience is specific. Drake dominates streaming but not performance. Taylor Swift sells out stadiums but isn't a dancer. Bad Bunny owns Latin music. Everyone has a lane.
Michael had no lane. He owned the entire road.
Saw someone say "you could literally be fighting for your life, and some people will only notice how you're not showing up for them." Let that sink in.
