If I couldn't create a good song without hundreds of people busting their asses all around me I would start to entertain the possibility that maybe I am not the talented one. That maybe it is collective exceptionalism propping up mediocrity.
Very much the case for a loooot of artists fs. The collaborative process in hip hop and pop these days is honestly really cool if we were honest about it and didn’t ascribe all the work to like a single person who often has the least to do with the process

I could walk into my living room right now and write and record a half decent song in like an hour by myself.
