The relentless WORK ETHIC of standout creatives | JPEGMAFIA, Rick Owens, MOWALOLA, Chuck Palahniuk

[@olistormz]

I am Rick Owens, I need to be in total solutide in a house alone for long periods to be able to really dive deep into these wells. People think it is isolating and I need social interaction but they will never understand how fulfilling it is for me, it is like being in heaven with the most high. Life as an artist is one few understand.

[@SpinSurgery]

Tbh I 100% feel that mentality. Learned it to be a fact during the pandemik. I really could not turn the feeling of being inspired off. It was nonstop. Soon as the world "opened"'again and I had to return to dealing with ppl, the faucet was turned right off. I guess using my social battery sucks the juice out of my creative battery. Kinds wish I didn't find this out because it's a bit of a bummer.

[@keetharris2010]

good to hear im not the only one with that feeling. im not good at collaborating. being alone while I create is so refreshing. people wonder why I don't talk about my work but its difficult to speak a language around people who don't know the language of being an artist...

[@providenceartdesign]

That's why some need to be relegated to observing what's in the museum. We are not all media creatives.....

[@toweringmother]

Sometimes it’s also exhausting being around artists who do understand .. Rick said something about other people’s ambitions. It’s really tough when you’re around creatives who aren’t necessarily unsupportive but only want to talk about their own art.

[@bohike]

Ive learned that tha feeling is not who you arem is just yourself telling you you have work to do on yourself. Even if colaborators are ambitious the goal is to reach the version of you that understands accepts and is not transformed or handicapped by it

[@Chokes_Will]

@@toweringmother That hit me hard, i find myself not caring about my friends music, but then expect him to give me credit for my music. Don't get me wrong, I try to help him be better, and sometimes sit down and help him write. But in all honesty, and something I cant say to him, but his music is just mediocre and im trying to make him work harder at it, and just the whole process in general. But he's unfortunately where i was years ago, when i thought I was legendary for finishing songs in an hour. More recent times has shown me how lazy i was. I do feel bad sometimes, I do have a lot of time for him though, he relies on me quite a bit for his mental health, but his music is just not currently that appealing.

[@Chokes_Will]

@@bohike 👏👏👏👏👏👏ironically I have no words, very true. Big thing to learn that you wouldn't think is so important when making music.

[@Kilo-Clutch]

Chuck Palhunik talking about holding back ideas to use in projects later, actually killing the flow of good ideas you had is so true. It just clicked for me why my consistency has dropped. Time to bring all these ideas to reality🌌

[@KatieLaskow]

11:04: "I was just here", I love that part where he's talking about doing the work even though nobody cares. Even though you haven’t gotten any external validation. We all need a bit more of that, I definitely do. Also, about taking risks, being in that space of discomfort. So much to think on! So energising ✪

true artists dont give a fuck about filming themselves and thinking about short form content. short form content kills your brand. today everything is labeled as ‘creative’ although only a fraction is. most people chase money, status, authenticity is slowly but surely dying.

Rick Owens looks like a vampire

[@robertordonez9242]

You cut out one of the most important things Rick said which is absolutely true. When he said “don’t expect life to be fair” he said that because he was going on about some of the most talented, hard working people still don’t make it because it’s just a matter of being in the right place at the right time. Almost throws your work ethic theory out the window. Personally I’d say it’s a combination of both strong work ethic and persistence as exhibited by JPEG’s interview. However, some of the laziest people with questionable work ethic can still make a living. Momentum and persistence is key.

[@zahkilovett]

[@rindenauge3426]

Work ethic is all about momentum. Starting as a kid, developing a style until 20, and then doing nothing else anymore. The youth is very important. If you miss out in your youth, it will be much harder to gain momentum.

[@polly99999]

wrong

[@dommiedarko3410]

20 is barely out the gate. Most artists don’t contribute much of note until their 30s. That 10 years, when you’re becoming who you will be for the rest of your life, so too is your art.

[@sonofsoos]

I honestly think this only applies if you’re born after 2000 due to the explosion of the internet and the age of information coming into full effect, you have 16 year olds nowadays creating their own art from home that’s close to studio quality and it’s fascinating to think what type of music we’ll be making when we’re old heads past 30

[@rindenauge3426]

@@sonofsoos It also depends on where you grow up. Some people just grow up surrounded by creativity.

[@LostAdults]

creativity has soul. 80% of todays ‘creativity’ has none of it. cashgrabs & status chasing.

[@kalebrooks6833]

I blame Tiktok, Reels and other fast-paced medias out there. There’s no more subculture, niche, or underground. Just one cesspool of who can be the loudest in the room

[@Tzippi]

Amazing! But I’ve would really like to see your certificate with skill share. All of these people say that they use skill share I want to see your credentials.

[@creativemindsyoutube]

Asking for receipts - I respect that. I haven't finished that course yet, but hope to start bringing in the mixing skills into the videos a little soon, so the proof of learning will be there I hope. I like the idea of putting a cert into one of the ads, that's a good shout. Glad you dug the video.

[@thingsyoudontreallysee]

Elaborate. What kind of drugs?

[@E_MZ_]

Yes…what kinds 👀

[@understanding77]

This is probably true, that’s why tons of artists burn out after a while or die an early death. This is why I got sober so I could continue to create and not have to worry about the drugs on top of the already stressful experience of creating

[@damon-t3l]

@@thingsyoudontreallysee Anything that induces altered states of mind really. Opioids, even alcohol, something thats 'not too harsh' in this case, thats maintainable and still allows work flow. Substances usually makes people feel more liberated ,allowing artists in particular to draw from that euphoric or indifferent feeling.Weed being the most common I think, Bob marley being a good example of that.
