Creative people have a tendency to seek approval from corporate people.
A singer/songwriter desperately wants the attention from the man in a suit sitting behind the big desk. The songwriter longs for the suit to pad him on the head, give him a record deal and steal all of the earnings.
What does suits know about good songs? What do they know about creativity and the highs and lows it brings? Why should they be put in the deciding chair?
They couldn’t identify talent or good poetry for their life – so I’ll stop asking them to from now on…
