Ruby Blue's Red Flags: THE MYTH OF THE INDUSTRY PLANT: COMMODIFICATION & ERASURE

January 26, 2026 by Dizzy Spell

The TikTokification of music has birthed a new witch-hunt: the industry plant. This article dissects how this gendered label erases the years of labour female artists put into the grassroots circuit while distracting from the systemic collapse of the UK’s cultural infrastructure.
