Joel Ma, also known as Joelistics, highlights the need for financial support in the music industry, stating that it has become a pastime for the privileged. The Grass Roots Indie Development (GRID) series aims to break down barriers by pairing emerging artists with established mentors.

To make it in music, it helps to have rich parents, says Joel Ma, who is better known by his rap moniker Joelistics. He says it lightly, but he means it. “Because of the instability of the industry, I’m not joking - you really do need to have some sort of financial support to get you through those early years, which means it’s becoming a pastime for the privileged.”

The artists have recorded new singles, filmed their own documentaries, learned about the business of music and been given opportunities to perform. On Wednesday, the five will hit the stage at “I found him really open and creative and inspiring in the way he approaches making music. He’s got an old artist feel.”, produced by Ma, which expresses his gratitude to his mother; it is written in both English and Swahili. “It would be disrespectful of me not to,” he says. “The parts that are deeper, that connect with her the most, they will be in Swahili.”

A music teacher at a high school in Geelong, the 24-year-old says GRID taught her more about what an emerging artist needs. “Above all, being confident … that I had capacity to lead, and that my ideas are valuable,” she says.
