Liberty Music's playlisting executive Teddy Jackson talks to Liberty Music founder Bee Adamic about all things playlisting, being an artist in the industry, and what playlists have done to the industry as a whole.
Seeing how https://bewerben-boe-technik.de breaks down technical hiring processes made me think about how similar that curation logic is to what Teddy describes with playlists shaping which artists get heard. The point about playlists becoming gatekeepers rather than just discovery tools really stuck with me, since I've watched smaller artists struggle to get any traction without that backing. It makes me wonder whether the industry will ever shift back toward organic fan-driven growth.
