its like if one dude was a painter, who painted everything super realistic and technical. and then another guy is a painter, who doesnt go as indepth in the realism of it, but makes a more visually appealing painting.

the guy with the more visually appealing painting is gonna sell more paintings. the dude who put all his time and energy into painting a picture of a building that looks like a photo gets butthurt. he looks at this other simple painting thats outselling him, and he's like wtf, anyone can do that.

but anyone can't. because if he tried to do that he would fail.

the same way jay z would fail if he tried to put out a talib kweli album

Doesnt this point to the audience more than anythimg?


So basically the more easy to apeal painting gets attention...the ome done
With les effort and commitment gets praised...while the person who worked
Hard spent time detailimg every line and every color gets pushed to the side.

So effectively. ..the hard worker worked hard just so some one
Who half assed it can take the glory.

Shit sounds fucked man lol
