EDITORIAL > INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY (EXTENDED MIX)

espite the ongoing challenges for female
artists, it’s imperative to celebrate the
successes that have been had thus far.
When discussing equality, the answers
and path forward may look different to
Deveryone involved. Instead of harping on
the negatives, it is more important to celebrate the successes.
The inequality across all musical genres, based on sex, race,
age, location, etc, are all well-documented pitfalls of the
industry as well as society in general. Fortunately, there are
allies everywhere, looking to celebrate all artists, regardless
of race or gender, but rather on the merits of their music
and live show. International Women’s Day may have come
and gone, but the spirit and sentiment should be a part of
everyday life and the women mentioned previously, as well
as thousands more, are forging a powerful path forward.
