The problem with the current music dispensation, is that artists don’t understand the reality that they live in. So they get angry at the wrong things.

Get mad at yourselves, not anybody else or even the system.

I’ll recommend you listen to this;

“These days, being mysterious is not unique. Stop with this stuff now. Wanting to be mysterious is just laziness as an artist… No artist has ever broken without having some form of [digital{ identity. Deadmau5 is an anomaly. Look at majority of artists.”

How would you describe the music industry to an outsider?

@LyndseyFisk potentially...plus, the platform only has one upload per person you follow a day max, so you don't spend enough time on the platform to want to consume it often

We saw BeReal becoming the next Instagram but after seeing how users are engaging with it, we’re thinking differently

Everyone shows the top 1% so BeReal isn’t appealing to most but the consumer wants to see the reality

BeReal may not stick around for long but BEING REAL will

[Burstimo @Burstimo]

@Traumavore Maybe they should do both

[Burstimo @Burstimo]

Seeing far too many artists putting out shit content as they’re desperate to post

Posting shit content that doesn’t get engagement is FAR worse than posting less but it’s higher quality content and is getting engagement

Quantity < Quality

@Burstimo Fairer than it seems because despite the over-saturation and lack of streaming money, the barrier to entry is now easier, you require less resources to make it, it gives anybody the chance to reach the top, all without trying to hand your CD to an executive at the end of a show.

They say "Everything happens for a reason", but in reality it's because you can survive and overcome more than you think you can.
