One of my motivations in creating Muezbiz is the recognition that the future lies with content creators. Our present system cannot fulfill the lives of so many creators. What if more folks could do better then simply get by? What if a world of creations can spread more organically and exist independently from today’s music machine? There is a huge market of musicians who are excellent in what they create. Muezbiz is a bridge in making the possible.
