How is this “uplifting” to anyone? I somewhat know the answer, but for me, this just reminds me that less connected and less lucky artists get next to nothing for a lot more effort.

This is a hype economy, and I hate it with every fiber of my being.

Its a rug pull economy.

Someone decided “we need more young artists to exploit” so they dangle the story out in front of gullible parents and wait for people to bite.

Mass media is just how the bourgeoisie go fishing.
