Music taste is a product of informal consensus much like getting a dao proposal passed - it shouldn’t be pushed through autocratically but it also can’t be formed in a vacuum of leadership. Audiences need taste to be stewarded on their behalf, generously shared with them and criticized & debated for good measure. We need passionate advocates for good work. We need disgruntled critics to tear apart bad work so it can be reassembled as a more honest version of itself. Taste is a conversation and currently, nobody is talking - everybody is just nodding, looking to their neighbor for something to care about. Music can bring us together if we let it and we can bring music forward if we care enough.

Was at the @Nappy_Nina show w/ @defcee and @jonessoruthless last night. Been to a few shows this summer after not going to any for a few yrs and seeing dope emcees spit it live is mad inspiring. Everyone was killing it last night! Shout out to CashPrez too...
The US banned Hawaiian language, overthrew our country, let us die in Maui fires, devastated our universal healthcare, & illegally occupies Hawaii to this day. My mother's hands were broken for speaking Hawaiian in school. The US is not a beacon, but the destroyer of independence
I’ve decided to bring my back catalogue of Théo Mode music onchain @ourZORA, once a week, one song at a time.
