Trends to Watch For in 2021
If 2020 taught us anything,
artists will always find new
and innovative ways to
survive.
The digital era has been around
for some time, but 2020 showed
artists relying on it in new ways
that will likely be adopted or
incorporated permanently.
Social Media Livestreams
For decades, fans would wait
patiently for their favorite
artists to drop a new album or
single.
The Rise of the Indie Artist
This seems to occur every
generation, but it was
undoubtedly helped by
focusing on digital and virtual
music.
Independent artists with enough
media savvy have ridden the
Livestream wave more
successfully than most, sharing
their music and personalities in an
attempt to go viral.
In a lot of ways, it's only
become more competitive
for independent artists.
Indie artists can curate
playlists for fans, educating
their musical taste and forever
emblazoning their name in the
listener's mind.
Alternative Revenue Streams for Musicians
Last July, Spotify CEO Daniel Ek said that
it's "Not enough" for an artist to release new
content "Every three or four years." Insulting
though this may be to those who struggle to
release complex albums, the market has
proven it true.
Often, a song heard in a
movie or TV show marks
an artist's big break.
Music Genre Crossover
Music collaborations have
been the creative pool in
which artists from different
genres regularly crossover.
