Absolutely, business is the art of dealing with other people. It can be incredibly beautiful and poetic! It's also tricky though, not everyone has those skills (myself included!). I do think a lot of disservice was done in web3 to artists in particular, a lot of "bring your art and you'll flourish here!" was sold to people who had no idea or ambitions of running a business. I've encountered quite a lot of shell-shocked artists in this space. I hope they can understand they're not crazy, it is in fact very difficult, and that while this is a step backwards temporarily in distribution it is huge leaps forwards in ownership which will eventually pay off in the long run.
Enlightened individuals will know that all your favourite artists from any decade all had their image and sound shaped by business executives 😌 (Besides the odd one, ofc.)
