Music and Third-Parties.. The consumption of Music and musical content is at record highs, and the portals for artists to earn are diverse and rewarding, especially for the big names. But as much as the listeners want that connection between them and the artist, that direct feel of the music leaving the artists and going straight to the ears of the listeners, it is not quite that way (at least not with the contemporary methods). For music to go from the artist to the…

ETH 2.0 might almost be upon us...... I find it very funny when I see a lot of newbies and even some guys who have been into Crypto for a while talk about Ethereum 2.0 but they really don't know or understand what it is. They don't know the shortcomings of Ethereum 1.0 neither do you know the features of Ethereum 2.0 and what it hopes to achieve and I've seen some hint that Ethereum 2.0 will reduce gas fees. This post though is not to explain what both are, I might consider…

Centralized vs Decentralized Messaging One thing we can all come to conveniently agree is that with the growth of technology and Social Media, the level of privacy each of us possesses continues to speedily decrease. If you do not care about how much others know about you, and if you like for your information and your tiniest bit of data to be out there then it shouldn't be a bother to you. But if you're like me who truly values their privacy and likes his data to be just…

Emanate: Redefining Music Streaming I have been in the Business arm of Music long enough to consider myself knowledgeable in how it goes, at last that’s what I like to tell myself. I have seen first-hand what artists go through in trying to earn from their works. I have watched artists struggle to earn from the top streaming platforms and it’s unfair to say the least. The top 10 Music streaming platforms have hundreds of millions of users every day, but what is paid to…

Revolutionising Music Streaming..... Perhaps the biggest argument against centralized Online Music streaming is that with them it truly hard for the upcoming guys to break out and make a name for themselves. The top guys already have the clout and coverage, and by extension a larger audience, unlike the nameless and underground guys who lack the financial power to promote themselves aggressively. There’s then the problem of the funds for putting your Music on the online…

Status for Newbies...... If you’ve not felt betrayed previously by the big brands for stealing your data and using it for other activities then you are really weird to me. If you haven’t been looking for an alternative to the big boys who continually exploit their users and steal their important data then I will also probably find you weird. But if you are like me and these things bother you, then Status will be a good fit for you. Status is Web3 Decentralized Private…

My Status Experience... Since I got to know about Blockchain technology and the revolutionary powers it possesses I can boldly say that I have been one of the biggest advocates for the growth of this technology. A lot of my life right now revolves around Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies. For starters, I only use Blockchain based social media platforms. My usage of the centralized ones like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram have dropped to All Time Lows. I also almost never use…

Changing the Future of Music... Listening to music has truly evolved from back then when listening was done through the use of the Phonograph, to tapes and casettes, to Music streaming platforms which we have in plentiful today. It sure is no surprise that a phenomenon such as Music which is able to scale beyond gender and whatever differences has developed this much. Just like anything else on Earth though, the phase we are currently in needs reworking as a lot of things…
