Kate Bush, an artist who exists outside of the patriarchy, tbf I think she exists outside of this planet, outside of this galaxy, She is not of this world and that’s why I love her!!

On first seeing this, it made me really sad and made my essay on her and feminist theory seem pretty redundant! *Cries! However at the same time, I kinda get where she is coming from! I don’t think Kate Bush needs feminism. She is possibly one of the few female artists who pretty much doesn’t.
When we look at Kate Bush, we see a better world, we see, well I know I see a human first of all, actually a sub-human creature capable of creating magic and taking us to another world as a real artist should do – and I think that is why so many of us adore her so much, because we love seeing and experiencing this. We see this tiny glimpse of what the world could be like if female artists got to do their art while being seen as people and not constantly held to ridiculous standards, trivialized and ridiculed and then shamed for being either too sexy or not sexy enough all the time

Welcome to my blog: Gender Equality in the Music Industry (GEMI)

 

My mission in creating this blog is to inspire and empower. There is one main difference between this blog and all other similar sites: I ONLY focus on positive news. Gender Equality in the Music Industry (GEMI) was launched in January 2016 and today is a go-to destination for female artists looking for content that focuses on the positive representation of women in the music industry and media.

There are three key areas of focus for the site’s content: Body image, positive messages from women in the music industry, and a contributors platform where everyday female artists and music fans can share their powerful stories.

The content is a great mix of original and curated information from myself and other similar online resources .

My goal is to always bring the best content that has a purpose and remains positive. How many daily news sites can say the same? If you would like to know more about the blog, or perhaps want to collaborate, write, partner or advertise with GEMI head over to the contact page.

Thanks so much!

GEMI POWER! XxX
