Currently at a MM fund and want to lateral to a media, sports and entertainment fund (currently at a consumer fund). Any updated views on Redbird, Providence, ZMC and Otro?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here’s what you need to know:
If you’re looking to lateral, these funds are excellent targets given their specialization in media, sports, and entertainment. Networking and showcasing your consumer fund experience as transferable to these sectors will be key.

I don't know why this forum loves Providence so much but it's objectively a firm in decline. Their latest fund size is half of their previous ones. LP's are doubting their right to live in an increasingly competitive PE world, Would much rather be at growing or at least flat funds in that 3-4bn range than a shrinking fund in the 3-4bn range (their latest fund closed at 3.2bn). Strong historic brand, but unsure for how much longer; as reputation will eventually catch-up to actual results and place in market.
Appreciate the color and had an idea that they were not doing great. Any insight on the other funds?
