On the topic of positivity and angst (Hyperpop)

Born from FL studio and ANGST! Hyperpop, the holy mother of my COVID experience. It seems nowadays, we've moved mountains away from what the pioneers had originally created. The current state of hyperpop is one that I've slowly started to dissociate myself from (not from hatred just from a difference in taste). It's gone in a direction I can no longer support, but I'd like to acknowledge its impact on my life. It seems silly to have positivity be correlated to angst. My view is that all things beautiful come from a place of angst. The need to express yourself creatively has existed forever and, in my eyes, has always come from a place of purity. Art is beauty and purity combined. Art changes you just as hyperpop changed me. Dealing with my own insecurities and faults I found a group of artists eager to let the world know about the pain they were going through. I found myself right at the heart of a community dealing with issues that I was going through. I don't think I could've survived quarantine without Osquinn, Glaive, lieu, Ericdoa, Nova Gang... etc. For the ones I didn't name, your songs still reside within my playlists today. ( doing a lot of yapping and losing your interest). Hyperpop gave me the outlet I needed to express my own rage at this world and you people. You would've had to have been there to understand the power expressed behind their music. To this day my number one song is Pessimistic by Kurtains because I had no other way to cope without killing myself! Angst and a need to express themselves created positivity within their fan base, and slowly they found people that wanted to hear their messages. To my fellow artists out there, never stop creating despite the hate you might get.
