I dare you (Recited on Halloween lol)

We have sat with our hands on our heads for too long!

Seen nights of hunger for too long!

To what end?! To benefit who?!?!

We have constantly been sold this dream!

This... fantasy!

That we can live this dream.

We watch as others live theirs on full stomachs.

No more! No more! I say!


Creatives! I call on you my brethren!

No more shall we beg for scraps!

No more shall we accept emptiness in the name of loving our craft!

Love yourself!

If they won’t book us. We must book ourselves!

If they won’t pay us for our time, we will pay ourselves for our own time!

Own your work!

Know your worth! Discover it!


Sponsors and Promoters! You don’t love or respect us. We see you. Milking and tearing us apart for your own gain!

We are coming for what we DESERVE!

Audience members! We are here to create amazing memories with You! Not for you. We are not toys. You say you love what we do yet you aren’t there when we call on you. What did we do to deserve your silence?!?!


Back to us... The artists...

Some of us think we are above everyone else and thus, treat them as lessers.

We are not mindless animals!

Where is this so-called majestic power you possess? You treat people like shit! You make empty promises! You’re lazy! You don’t deserve what you demand!

You are killing the very thing you claim to love. All the battles you have fought in its name!

Do you really love this art of yours?!? Really?!?!

Make something of yourself!

It is time we take it to the streets, billboards and media platforms

Show who you are! This is your legacy!

This is the footprint you’re leaving!

It is Time we redefine what we say we are!

It is time to redefine Artist!
