Ep. 81 - The conspiracy of it all ft. Elona | Michael Jackson | Music Industry | Authenticity

This week on Bite The Bullet Podcast, one conspiracy theory sparks a much bigger conversation: Did the pressures of fame, the music industry, and impossible expectations contribute to Michael Jackson's downfall? What starts as a discussion about conspiracy theories quickly turns into a conversation about the changing music industry, what it takes to build a lasting legacy, and why community support matters more than ever for artists, especially those coming from "smaller" Caribbean islands. Along the way, we talk about authenticity, documenting your journey, the creative process behind making music, and why collaboration will always outperform competition. We get into: • The conspiracy theories surrounding Michael Jackson's life and death • Whether modern artists can ever reach Michael Jackson-level impact • How streaming and social media changed the music industry • Why artists need to invest in themselves before expecting support • Competition vs collaboration in Caribbean music
