A short YouTube monologue (by Lennon Bone) arguing that artists should reclaim control of their careers and free themselves from industry gatekeepers. The speaker anticipates backlash from industry figures and other artists, and punctuates the point with a humorous aside about having accepted a microchip implant after a message from "Elon."
I believe it's time for artists to take control of their careers again and let go of the gatekeepers in the industry. And when I say that out loud, there's a little voice that comes up in my head and it's like, if you start saying that people high up in the industry are gonna hate you. A lot of artists are gonna hate you. And you know what I say to that voice? You're one of them, aren't you? Yeah, I hear you. This is unbelievable. Not only have they infiltrated my home, but my frickin brain as well. I knew I shouldn't have got that microchip implant when Elon messaged me. I gotta do some doom scrolling.
