How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

The musicians are being boxed and categorized these days by the gatekeepers and by the industry, who essentially shape the audience's musical tastes. This layer has to recede, and musicians should be able to find and communicate with their public directly and independently without such an excessive dependence on managers, influencers, labels etc. The consumption of music needs to be democratized and the musicians should get a fair share of the profits (if any) commensurable to their contribution.
