The internet is making it easy for talented artistes to showcase their skills before others and grow to be highly paid artistes. Internet is specifically useful to young artistes who have limited backing in the form of well-connected agents to back them. There are a number of young artistes who have used the internet to attain instant stardom. One such young artiste is Joseph Birlem. He was a child prodigy who started showing interest in music at a very young age. He started to sing when he was just 6 years of age. However, he began to get some recognition only when he started using the internet as a launch pad for his future career. Taking note of other young artistes, Joseph Birlem too started to promote himself on the internet rather than depending on music companies which demand a good cut in the artiste’s pay and long-term contracts. He is a famous Instagrammer who hogged the limelight for his support to pop singer Jacob Sartorius on the Sartorian Summer Send-Off tour.
