KRISTEN MADSEN: "I would say that that’s probably the biggest theme that you can see, is watching the artists and the professionals come through and talk about, there are new ways and new roadmaps for kids to succeed in the music industry, and they have a lot more access to doing it themselves.”
Kristen Madsen:“我想说,观看艺术家和专业人士的讨论,可能是你在社交网站能够看到的最重要主题,这是孩子们在音乐行业取得成功的新的方法和路线,他们也有更多自己取得成功的途径。”
