(Thread) I've noticed a lot of people are under the impression that being stuck indoors is creative heaven for artists and that their productivity should be at an all time high.
First of all..how do you create when you don't know where rent money will be coming from for the foreseeable future? And let's say you do create..where will you record when all the studios are closed?
Let's say you've written the song of your life and you've managed to record, mix and master it..how will you shoot your music video when social distancing measures are in effect?
Let's say you manage to shoot your music video..how will you pay for it when there are no gigs to cover your costs of production? Where will you get the cash to market it?
What I'm getting at is this..you're favourite artists are in worse shape that you can possibly imagine and they need your support now more than ever. Encouragement yes but most importantly your financial support.
We've been used to getting our favourite content for free without ever considering what it might have cost that person to make it (especially the independent artists).
This is the season to reach out to that favourite artist and send them mpesa tips, offer to sponsor a recording session or a video. If not, be prepared to enter a season with very little new content.
If someone's music has made an impact in your life then make sure to show them love in this season
