On social media, the common story is bedroom producer because it is so easy for a major entity to promote anyone they want to stardom with a solid budget behind them.
Many of the most popular influencers on social media are corporately backed with songwriters and million dollar production units behind the bedroom cameras. You can usually only tell this when you search BMI and see how many songwriters and engineers names are listed on hit songs.
The hit making "bedroom producer" with 50k+ followers is now mostly smoke and mirrors...

Even a million is nothing. Insta and Twitter followers these days go for about $7 per 1000.
It doesn't cost $45B these days to be loved by a few bot accounts.

They eclipse whatever she was doing in her “regular bedroom”

Producing the music is the easy part. It’s everything else I mentioned.
> This is no humblebrag bedroom studio that turns out to have been professionally outfitted. It’s just a regular bedroom, with a bed against one wall, where Eilish sat to record her vocals, facing a desk and bookshelves and O’Connell’s modest production setup: Apple Logic Pro X, a Universal Audio Apollo 8 interface and a pair of Yamaha HS5 nearfields with an H8S subwoofer
