The Career of Jerry Paper

Jerry Paper’s music videos currently have less than 20,000 views on Youtube.

He is ‘the most relatable face of the auth‘ movement. Many online content farms will compare his unique voice to that of Ariel Pink, while other cultural critics will say he is like some synth songwriter from an earlier era. In the embedded music video (above), Jerry Paper wants us 2 reprogram ourselves. It is a metaphor 4 the connection between technology and relationships. He really deconstructs the workplace environment for the ‘millenial’ in the workplace.

He seems like a chill auth bro. Just makin some art. Pumping it online. Vibing like an auth ass bro, not ‘catering’ to the neutered, scalable festival indie culture.

In the past, Jerry Paper would have been seen as ‘hella alt’, thereby making him ‘scalable’ within the indie machine. However, Jerry Paper will be appreciated by audiences that consider him ‘auth’ since there is a ‘demand 4 art.’

The auth movement/genre celebrates art that is not scalable.

Jerry Paper is a stupid name. Mainstreamers might think he is ‘special needs’ while netstreamers will say he is ‘trying too hard’ and that they have ‘seen him b4’.

The netstream scaled media indie machine will not ‘cover’ Jerry Paper because he does not have 100K+ FB likes.

Jerry Paper may or may not ‘suck’, but I will feel ‘auth as fuck’ when I go 2 his show, because it is ‘art.’ I feel like there won’t be a big crowd of ‘indie fans’ that are attached to a dead phase of culture.

Jerry Paper makes me feel at home. Like I am a true auth. Like I have outgrown ‘alt’ and ‘indie.’
