>>115391975I've never understood this. You have never considered how much of a struggle your favorite obscure artists go through to get paid for their work, to get the boost needed to reach a wider audience than just you. There's the love of the music, and then there's the ability to keep doing it without having to ditch it all and sell insurance.
This is a borrowed meme. Hipsters propagated this meme while it was still somewhat possible to "sell out" instead of there not being anything close to what that used to mean now. Be sure to be born into a banker family or something else "special" to even be in that position anymore, which explains our current predicament.
