If you could reverse one musical artists untimely death, who would it be and why? Mine would be Jim Croce. His songs were excellent and he’d have been way more popular and greater than he already is if he had the chance to spread his genius more. To me the emotions in his songs is unmatched. submitted by /u/Cowcoc

If you could bend time and space for any two artists to make a collab album, who would you pick? For me it’s gotta be Fiona Apple and Jeff Buckley. Slightly different stylistically but they’re both very flexible genre wise and they’re some of the most talented vocalists I’ve ever heard. They also have similar ranges, so I feel like they’d compliment each other well. What about you guys? submitted by /u/Drip_Soup03

For people in an orchestra, how do you feel playing concerts with pop artists? I’ve always wondered how symphony musicians feel about playing pop concerts with popular musicians (Ben Folds, Lana Del Ray, Bobby Weir, etc.). Are they happy to play for a new audience and people who have passion for music? Is it insulting to play pop music? A mix of emotions, depending on which person you ask? submitted by /u/rotomotor …

Feels illegal for big artists to interact with smaller Hi I’m mostly like the only fanartist in my fandom that genuinely support smaller artists. Like I interact with them like I’m their friend. Is that being a creep? Weirdo? I don’t usually encounter ppl like this who are so kind and supportive even though they gain nothing from me. But I do that to small new artists with 100 or low followers. And…

The Label which released songs like the tiktok hit Snowfall by Oneheart faked my identity to scam artists and get my mix with ~ 300k follower deleted?

I keep seeing Kiwi.com posts. Try this. STOP USING KIWI.COM. They are borderline scam artists. How many times do we have to see the same posts. We all learned this lesson and it’s like people just keep using known scammers for their flights. How hard is it to do research? Better yet, just plan ahead and use the airlines. It’s a bit more, but at least you’ll get your money back as soon as the flight gets cancelled. Using those extra agenci…
