the future of popular music as far as i can tell is AI smooth jazz, songs from 10 years ago that are randomly viral on tik tok, and chappell roan

i think what’s actually happening is that it’s never been a more bummer time to work on the biz side of music
30 yrs ago you were being paid to go to dive bars to catch the next nirvana, now your job is essentially sending “subject: love it!” emails to children from tik tok

Pro tip for @Spotify users: if ya dig an artist go ahead and hit the follow button ESPECIALLY for smaller artists. There’s literally no downside to doing this. It’s not like a normal social media thing. You won’t have to scroll endlessly thru a feed filled with rants or pics. 1/3
turned 29 today and feeling lots of things, wish there was a song somebody had written about this very experience.........

has there literally ever been a time where you wanted to paste and keep the original formatting??????
the #WGAStrike is a good time to remember that songwriters/producers:
- do not have a union or any formalized bargaining process with music streaming
- aren't compensated for any work that's not released
- are paid about 1/10th the royalties of what the artist is paid
very excited for AI to progress sufficiently that someone, with the right technology and prompts, will finally be able to do what no musician or songwriter has been able to do so far: make a good wingtip song
musicians are already massively disempowered relative to labels and corporations. what happens when those businesses can just algorithmically generate 90% of their output?
lotta people asking me this one. my actual birth name was 'tingwip' but my manager told me that was 'too jewish' for the music business
