The blending of professions is common since they can be fully established within different creative or business ventures. Being multi-hyphenate can be a way to stay relevant, have various sources of income, or pursue other dreams.

Stan culture is the reason many artists still have careers in 2025, but it’s also why some can’t sleep at night.
