| I think its best not to assume anything as opportunities come along for everyone to sway one way or another from time to time.
I am well aware that a video on youtube with a visual representation for my music is far stronger than music alone nowdays in a visual media world.
So yes a strong or defined image for an artiste is important.
But I dont think a lot of budget has to be used.
Eminiem for example and Ice Cube just wore cheap tackies as that was their reality.
Thats Hip Hop ''inner city life''
And nowdays in a world of idiots killing the ''real'' music industry value like SImon Cowell I think people respect real and independant musicians moe than ever rather than 7 11 style mass produced shite with mega budgets.
Who is to say that its your ego thats the problem not theirs as they have a strong self identity where as you just dont get it perhaps because you cant get over your own ego?
I think the point is anyone you gel with will have their own image and the only ego you need to consearn yourself with is the one you are tossing off perhaps and myself like wise lol.
The music talks the bullshit walks keep your ears on the ball.
Just my thoughts anyway!! |
