The Future Of Artists with Maras

The current lockdown in most parts of the world has had a huge impact on artists. Whether, they are musicians, painters or poets, the lockdown abruptly stopped concerts, workshops, art galleries, museums, etc. and many artists experienced a sudden stop of their income. Fortunately, creativity is the core of art and therefore artists currently create new ways to express their art, new platforms to present their art and new channels to earn money with their art. In this interview, I talk with Maras a rapper and poetry slam artist from France, who is also a coach for eloquence and poetry. Maras is the 2018 Red Bull Battle Rap Champion, the 2016 Vice-World Champion in Freestyle Rap and the 2014 National French Champion in Poetry Slam. He has performed on poetry slams as well as rap concerts and contests on all continents in French, English, German, Italian and even Japanese. Maras talks about his struggles, opportunities and visions in the current situation and embraces the positive aspects of the lockdown, while being aware of the dangers and risks. Some of the questions I ask Maras: What are the positive impacts of the lockdown for you? (02:05) I personally enjoyed the lockdown as a time for inner work and retrospective. But now, I want to go out and fully live again. How is that for you? (03:04) How did you deal with the abrupt change in live and the sudden stop of earning money? (05:11) How do you think, the lockdown will change the way art is expressed, is consumed and is experienced? (07:49) Which new revenue streams and communication channels for artists are appearing during the lockdown? (10:37) Will digital concerts stay as an additional channel when real concerts are happening again? (14:40) On which digital models are you working to drive your business during the lockdown? (23:15) As with Global corporations vs. small to medium businesses, will big Global artists win over smaller Local artists, the longer the lockdown takes? (31:10) What is the current state of mind in the artistic community? (33:17) Will you keep on building these new digital channels for your art when you can do real-life workshops and concerts again?
