We live in a world where creativity has never been more visible — or more undervalued.
Artists and creators pour their hearts into music, videos, performances, and stories that reach millions of people. Yet most of them struggle to make a living. Why? Because the digital systems that promised opportunity have quietly rewritten the rules.
Algorithms decide what art is seen. Platforms prioritize engagement over expression. And creators — the very people fueling the culture — are often left suffocating under the pressure to produce more, faster, for less.
In the process, authentic creativity has been replaced by content churn. We didn’t build a digital revolution for art. We built a digital assembly line.
And while the world scrolls endlessly, the people who make it move — artists, musicians, storytellers, and visionaries — are forced to fight for breath in a system designed for everyone but them.
