I was talking about the exact same thing yesterday, in fact we exchanged the exact same thing you just pointed out with literacy rates decreasing and it beginning with the music people are ingesting. We spoke for about 2 hours on the topic, so I understand exactly what you are talking about.
While that is true, I am simply talking about if I come across, let’s say, a post of a group of friends getting a studio sessions as an artistic activity to engage in together, similar to going to a museum or having a painting/poetry/music picnic, where they make music where they are just having fun and let’s say they like it so much they release it for their other friends to listen to. To me, there is nothing wrong with that and it allows people to feel good about expressing themselves and an activity they experienced with others or even by themselves.
To me, that’s awesome and actually keeps the childlike joy and wonder of creating. Like I said, to each their own. I’m not here to gate keep, I welcome everyone and I’m happier for it. This is no way means artists who still have an important message to share also can’t thrive and be successful and also garner other people to their cause, even in the same space as the people in it just to have fun. It allows for an even larger community where we are all together loving what each other has to offer
I respeck ya optimism dawg
It will be replaced with the content creation industry and influencers will be the new celebrities
People are realizing how corporate the Entertainment industry is so they’re slowly moving away from consuming it. Plus the quality has dropped significantly in the past 10 years
2023 was a pretty crazy year for Hollywood, I’m not gonna lie, with all those big bombs, but at the same time you had success stories, on bigger and smaller scales. The videogame sector had a record-breaking year. Music streaming grew considerably, especially in internationally markets like Mexico, Indonesia and India, the vinyl market stays healthy and tours from Taylor, Bey and The Weeknd, thanks to inflation and sadly a big scalping rate, grossed historic numbers in $, but also in attendance numbers. I agree that the entertainment industry faces big changes, but I don’t see a major paradigm shift ahead of us.
I'm convinced you have mental damage
I was jokingly saying that it won't take long until they play 20 sec ads between verses and this absolute f***ing brainlet keeps posting at me about different things that are not that
I vaguely remember you defending your nazi daddy in another thread too. Smartest Kanye stan I guess. Completely delusional

People have been advertising in their raps for years is what bro been saying to you dawg lol.
Like Gen Z potentially will never hear this
!https://youtu.be/m1Z0qprqZzs?si=7pWeIY-3LQtAElJQDon’t tell me how great streaming is dawg lol
most of doms discography tbh
@browser This is also 1000% why all ur fav artists sold they masters to cash out early.
They probably were seeing the signs a crash/reset was coming.
I don’t think enough people really turned their antennas up when this was happening happening
In No particular order
Justin Bieber, Tina Turner, Lil Wayne, Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, and many others sold their masters within a 1-2 year time period

Now you were joking
lol
A lot of jobs in the entertainment industry have been going through layoffs and cutting corners btdubs
This year’s gon be interesting
Music in its purest form will never bend to a model or spreadsheet or chart and as someone who realizes that threads/tweets like these do nothing 4 me
physical media is just gonna end up in a landfill and everything is on the internet anyway
I’d be one of the many laughing tomorow if the internet crashed and i threw a YE, Jay, or Otis Redding Vinyl on my turntable
Guys don't worry, my bad, Viper surprise dropped You'll Cowards 5
Entire music industry is saved
i dont really care tbh
I do tbh. I spent all my 20s caring wayy too much about pop culture, and don't know what I can fill the void with now
People who continue to say "Streaming is the future" always miss the huge point.
I love Streaming, but I won't replace it with Cable/Live TV or Physical Media.
Because like @insertcoolnamehere said, what if Hov takes his projects off streaming, and puts the super ultra copyright like he did before.
Are you gonna have those physical copies backup?
Vinyls are having their moment, but you see the appreciation of CDs sooner or later.
