There have always been just a few really great minds in every era. The only difference is that now every asshole with a camera thinks he is the next best thing but gets denied by the industry. Fuck that.
Like Dex says:

And so it should be. Of course, connections, luck and all that help. But in the end its unlimited passion, talent and a lot of persistent hard work that will maybe get you where you wanna be.
Genius isn’t spread out to everyone. Plus there is a huge independent scene in which you can make name if you have the goods to do something.
Blaming it on the industry is just denial of your own incapacity. If you are good enough, keep knocking on every fucking door and you will get the opportunity to get somewhere with it.
Lot’s of great people have been rejected. But it should make one stronger…
