Lack of Talent, Saturation of "Artists"
Whats Up guys. As we move further into the future it is quite apparent that media and art itself is evolving. This evolution of media can be seen as either a positive or negative thing depending on how you choose to look at it. Media itself and the tools used to create it has never been more easy to get ahold of than it is now, this could be seen as a good thing because now it doesn't take thousands of dollars to create films, music, and many other types of digital media. However this leaves us with a saturation or creations that lack quality or just aren't up to par. The advance in technology has without a doubt changed the way we as human beings view, perceive, and create art. Never in our history has it been so easy for us to create something and then share it with a mass audience. Now I feel that we are conditioned to not only accept but enjoy art that is mediocre. Although the saying "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" pertains very heavily to art, I think it is safe to say that the bar for real talented art work has dropped significantly within the last 20 years. Another negative to the saturation of work that is being released is that artists with actual vision and talent our now less likely to be noticed and filtered through the garbage. However this is just my opinion let ne know what you guys think!

I feel you. As it becomes easier for artists to put out music, it becomes harder to break through the noise. I also think though that it also challenges us in the way that we choose to put out our music.
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely true man everybody and their momma has a small home studio, and they are trying to make it in the music industry as well. I feel like anybody as a person can actually rap, the hard part is learning how to make money from it.
