The brand saves the day! Music videos drive culture and are vital environments for brands. And once in a while, the stars align and beyond brand exposure - the advertiser becomes key to the storyline of the video. In this example, Taimi: LGBTQ+ Dating App saves the day as LP navigates the fun chaos of Prague Pride and finds a match. With music, brands become heroes.

Patriarchy downers and/or attempters are poor populists for their lack of original brain activity, and excess of envy. They are generous for showing whom not to vote for; themselves. ❌ An empty mind is easily brainwashable. Even though we're amicable towards the idea of a gender balance in political representation; unlike many voters in Funland we have standards. That's why all the female politicians that do hate speech towards any demographic are a no-go. Just like misogynistic male politicians. They should pick their brains with better luck next time. With actual ideas for improvement in their scope.

Representation matters. Learn why and find resources to help you program more women composers in your concerts.
