I just wanted to connect with some music friends who I could really relate to, but it seems like this space is filled with ego and competition instead of connection. Why is it so hard for us to simply appreciate each other’s art? There’s no “best” when it comes to creativity music is meant to be expression, emotion, and shared experience. It should be about inspiration, not comparison. Can’t we just celebrate each other and the unique voices we bring to the world? Isn’t that what art is really about?
