No, she had the fucken cash to sit around and get the fucken recording equipment and instruments for country songs. That shit ain't cheap, and she started before the home recording revolution. So you know Papa Swift paid for some studio time. Its not abuse at all, its wealth and privilege to pursue what you want.
You’re not wrong on all your points but also jesus christ if you think DIY started after T Swift.
No, but in the 2010s it became much cheaper to record at home than it ever was and we saw countless artists come from that.
I had prosumer home recording equipment back around the turn of the century, and it wasn't anything new.
How expensive was it though? Probably more than the cost of a cheap laptop and a USB mic.
We had cheap laptops and USB microphones back then. I had a set up with digital audio converter, a couple mics going to laptop set up was about $200-$250 w/out laptop and I had a separate boss br-532 8 track recorder I picked up used for like $300. I'm sure if I was more frugal I could've gone a lot cheaper.
