wasn't my intention to just prioritize conventional art. I like niche, original stuff a lot, but I don't think there is more original, niche art today (maybe unintuitive take), or at least it is harder to find. Can't remember who made this point but, music is now because of the 'creator economy' system so optimized for virality and attention that the medium itself has changed almost every genre for playlist optimization. The 'concept album' is practically gone. You will today have a fairly hard time find tracks that are very long or very short simply because it's not a great fit for typical streaming consumption. I find it now more difficult paradoxically to find great rap than I did probably 20 years ago.
