On Ruben Slikk

On Ruben Slikk: An Manifesto on the Purpose of Art and the Value of Transgression is a philosophical and critical inquiry into the modern musical landscape, using the obscure, prolific, transgressive soundcloud rapper Ruben Slikk as an entrypoint for discussing the interplay of art, music, and capitalism; style; morality; humor; genius; talent; entitlement; desire; addiction; and all the ways the illusion of merit distorts how we see the world around us.
