Impact of Art
So the impact of art. Art is compelling. It controls the mind, it controls your thoughts. Just like when they say you are what you eat what you consume as far as art gravitates towards you. If one listens to evil thoughts, then there are more chances of evil things happening. If one listens to good thoughts, then there are more chances of good things happening. This is common sense. It’s mighty important whatever one produces with art is good for the mind rather than bad vibes. There are so many talented artists in this world and so much talent that art is something that we see on the internet every day and it’s hard to compete. Many gifted people get thrown in the trash every day and that’s something that no one wants to see.
Underpaid Artists
Artists are always taken advantage of. They produce the art, they take the time to care for their art and people do appreciate it, but when it comes to generating revenue, the artist is always thrown to the side. Not all the time but many times. The more talented the artist and the more controlling the artist is the more one sees this issue. This must be fixed by liberalizing VC out focusing on capital injection and employing artists rather than treating them like gold. As far as governments, artists create safety hazards as well and it might be better to see them on salary bases rather than rockstars. Rockstars/Top-Tier artists do have the luxury over a regular VC employee and a way more enjoyable lifestyle, so important to keep that in mind.
Rough Environment
A lot of people make art based on the environment they are from. For example, if one is from a tough community, the art will be tough. If one is from a soft community, the art might be slower and a different style. It’s important to keep good happy vibes around with art rather than put people in a down mood because life and time go so fast and things happen rapidly. As an artist, always keep in mind, that the main job and goal is to portray your story but to uplift others.
Why Art is Important
So when it comes to art, remember it’s about how others feel. If they feel the wrong way then an artist must make sure they are protected. At the end of the day when creating something, it’s about making sure that whatever is delivered serves the consumer some purpose. Whether it’s from attraction, whether it’s from talent, whether it's a flex, it has to produce some sort of energetic value. We’re all human so we all have feelings. As an artist one has to be mentally tough and not care what anyone has to say because someone might take it left or someone might take it right. In addition, it stinks but an artist has to produce his/her own art. When there are so many people in the world it’s important to study the people you look up to and then from there start generating your own platform/art. There are so many companies and competitors in the world that if you don’t produce something and get caught consuming then from there the world will eat you alive and then you become a consumer.
Being Able to Make Money off Your Art
So now things have changed so much in this world. People have the chance to own their distribution. Their art! The internet has become the most powerful tool in the world. Most powerful. Let’s say there’s no internet, then the government would be in way more control of the world. Since the internet exists people can create their empires use the internet and become their own kings. Obviously, the ones using the internet are not the real king but they do have cultural impact which can impact people's lives. Now the King has access to capital funds that people always need, but the King is also tied to government and political causes so it’s tough for the King. That’s why the rise of NFT art, many artists and VC firms speed ramp growth on social. If the art is good enough then one can produce killer art that can generate value for years. Go on an important social network and stream your favorite song and then bang, now you can access it with less government control. There is government regulation but it’s important to know that the power of art can create anything in this world, especially with the release of Meta.
Wrap Up
So overall art does run our world. Our feelings are what are important. As an artist, all that matters is how anyone feels. Take a look at an imam or a sheikh. The value of their performances and art is outstanding. Now honestly speaking a lot of people take these performances for granted as this is classified art. Obviously it’s Islamic duty but these days many are fascinated by things besides Islam and want to stay mainstream. So for example, one's creating art and taking attention away from the sheikh or imam who is producing Quranic value. Which is technically haram, as this value exceeds the value of a write-up. Let’s say you’re a sheikh, if your art and your business aren't stored properly, with the internet rights the art can get stolen, unless you are that Islamic where you don’t care about anything besides namaz. Something important to know is to pay the people who keep our heritage more than the average person. For example, the cop should get paid more than the artist because the cop is protecting, but in the artists defense, one has more pressure on him/her. The sheikh should get paid more than the artist. Then people will want to be that but since there’s more money as an artist or the way it's perceived then people will gravitate towards that. If the art has spirit, people will naturally gravitate towards it and then it uplifts people rather than put them down. Art again is all about making sure people feel a sense of feelings and a sense of unity, otherwise it can't drive traffic or it can't drive value, so it's really important that if with that power the right things are said.
