tik tok

When Tik Tok became one of the most popular apps in the country, many in the entertainment world questioned whether it was an accurate representation of “young talent” on social media. Many Instagram, Youtube, and Facebook stars have had to rely on developing original content in order to secure views, but one of the most famous Tik Tok stars Charlie D’Amelia has proven that entertainment will always be a changing art form.

social media influence

In the earliest days of the media, there were only certain careers you could take on and “make it” in regard to a lucrative reward. Acting, directing, producing, radio, etc. were limited positions, and more often than not, you would be under the direct supervision of a fellow professional.

Social media brought forth an entirely new era, one that made stars out of people making silly, ridiculous and original content on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, Twitch, and more. Celebrities have been quoted as saying their job is to be famous, Kim Kardashian being one of the most well known examples of somebody who sells different kinds of perfume and clothing just by having their name attached to it. Similar to a “brand” like Gucci, where you pay for the name and not for the product itself, “Social Media Influencers” have become the new Kardashians.

satellite pirate radio

When most people think of the word “pirate” they think of bearded, dirty, rotten teeth, foul mouthed criminals. Others, especially those in radio, think of “freedom”. Pirates are notoriously associated with taking orders from no one, no government, and certainly not the FCC. 

Radio is regulated by the government agency, and therefore there are rules and regulations they must follow and adhere to to ensure they are not fined, or worse, lose their license. Every terrestrial radio station on your dial must be registered and licensed. Ever since the telecommunications act of 1996, any company can purchase multiple licenses/stations in the same market, therefore removing any competition. This created oversaturation in certain markets, and media giants like iHeart, Entercom, and Cumulus began buying up stations like hoarders. Although this allowed professionals in radio to begin working at various stations simultaneously, these titans in media began implementing new “Corporate” regulations that began transforming radio from a freeing and vocal artform for truth into a corporate office where even wearing the wrong kind of tie could get you into trouble.
