Music Today
Category: Real Life
Current mood:  blah

Is it just me or is pop music today worse than ever before? The play the same bland soulless crap on the radio over and over again, multiple times a day, every day, its hard to even tell one song/artist from another. It's like they churn these singers out on a factory production line. There is no real personality, the songs themselves are about nothing, and whats with the trend of Disney setting up its child TV stars with pop music careers? Their music is often auto-tuned, is the blandest of the bland and usually their teenybopper fans have forgotten who they were after a couple of years when they become fans of the next 'big thing'.

It saddens me, there are so many genuinely talented musicians out there,people performing at local shows, in bars or in garages, uploading their music online. People who can sing, play an instrument well and write good songs, but they never make it to radio. They go most of their lives working crappy day jobs to pay the bills, trying to get gigs that pay very little, out of their love of music they keep slogging on, while these talentless hacks churned out by the corporate machine rake in the big bucks. There is so much great music out there, but the odds are you wont hear it on a mainstream radio station.

Yeah, that's how it is these days - the more generic and bland, the stronger the sales because it appeals to the largest base. That's all major labels care about. The best stuff will never make it to commercial radio since it appeals to splintered (smaller) groups of fans or subcultures. Think back and it was always like that. At least we have small and independent labels today and the internet to "level the playing field" a bit. The genuine talent is mostly in the underground... ;-)
