RE: When Artists Can't Pay the Rent

Thank you for your encouraging words.

Bad films and music make it to the top these days because people are constantly and repetitively fed with rubbish consciously and unconsciously. Repetitiveness makes something feel familiar and likable.

I agree. It also sounds like the trending page, and the people who upvote the same thing being recycled.

Sort:  

Yup, to really change, you need someone with big pockets to promote unique content, music, films, etc. At the moment, the ones with big pockets are spending their money to promote rubbish and manufactured contents.

Or be really good friends with them to be regularly supported/upvoted, but I'm just not like that. Like I said above, I consider my wordcraft sophisticated that I don't need to beg those big guys to upvote my content.

Maybe my pride won't make me rich here, but to feed me is enough.

As long as you are happy. That is the important thing. Your work will be appreciated by the right person.

Right, I love what I'm doing and that's what's important. Thanks!

No problem!

There are some potential tech solutions that might help. Better curation and personalisation tech can help. We keep talking about media mainstream as if it is a monolith, but the trend is for more fractured and personalised services. Change is happening - albeit slowly.
