I never really understood this whole 'hipster' mindset.. The whole purpose of music is to get widespread so that the artist work can touch as many lives as possible. If the artist remains unknown so you can selfishly proclaim yourself as an artistic compass then (1) the artist will have to stop making his art and doing something else so he can get food on the table (2) the world will be a poorer place! I wish that everyone could listen to good music so we could stop having all these biebers..

@Broax You don't seem not to the 'hipster' mindset... people who chose not to listen to mainstream music because most artists get to their position by "selling out" or giving into an alternative way of making it BIG. Actually being 'hipster' is more of a fashion statement rather than a mindset, but more often then not, the clothing comes with the attitude. Anyways, artists who can make it BIG without "selling out" are respected much more than the biebers of the world. Now listen to the music.

when people get hyped on hearing a song with a low amount of views they feel like they found a hidden jem, they feel good when they discover it, because they have gotten really lucky. you guys are confusing that good feeling for being a hipster duche bag which they really arnt
