I’m entering a zone where I’m only excited by artists who are storytellers or world-building

I love songs that make you want to write a music video treatment upon 1st listen

I love musicians that could curate an insane festival with their influencers & potential collaborators
Wow @LILUZIVERT is the type of world-building artist that you want to make a @tiktok_us video with an original dance for every track on Eternal Atake

I’m thinking about a filter that makes you duck under lasers then hitting the shoot
. @kevinabstract to @RickRubin: "I like world-building. I like making something for me and my friends to look at and be like that's cool, a universe that we came up with...It's all fueled by the music. The music is the thing that helps set up the world"
We're in a golden era of world-building black artists (yes, I made a playlist).

Influenced by the music of their childhood and what they connected to on their own. They are creating something so fresh that their fans can get lost in it and be themself when reality is too much.
Seriously, @charli_xcx is the definition of a world-building artist from her collaborators, visuals, performances, @Beats1 show to playlists
I feel honored when I add an artist to my playlist of world building artists and see her playlist in their @Spotify 'Discovered On' section
The @100gecs virtual festival on @Twitch is the only place and the perfect place I expect to hear a mash up of DJ Sammy's "Heaven" and 645AR's "4 DA TRAP".
Yes, I made Festify lineup as soon as I saw it on my timeline.

Yes, my lineup gave @NnamdiOgbonnaya, @MosesSumney, and @IDK top billing. All world-building Black artists.
