What Happened to Creativity in Music?!
Sorry I haven't blogged in awhile, I've been on vacation.
That being said, whatever happened to ARTISTS making music. A huge percentage of the modern music I hear has no talent. What ever happened to people writing music? It seems as though the primary objective is no longer to share ideas or express yourself, but simply a contest of who can look the best. Whenever I hear those "hit songs from hot new artists" (models) I cant stop thinking to myself "who wrote this" and "how gullible do they think we are"? I think it was destiny's bastard child that I heard say at an award show saying how much this music meant to them. What the fuck? They didn't even write their music. To me its all the same. Some guy making a lame, generic beat and some beautiful person having there voice altered to sing it. Then they have "concerts" where someone plays the track and all they do is lipsync.
Here I am listening to some Pink Floyd while others say it sucks and how much they prefer their Ashley or Jessica Simpson music. They go on to explain how "artistic" they are. Then I usually have the same reaction, The want to vomit!
This also goes for acting. A while ago I read on a fellow bloggers page "He is a real actor...not a movie star" (taken from The OCD Gen X Liberal, 3/5/06). Basically what I'm wondering is what's people like Paris Hilton's talent? Why are people like her famous. I've seen her show, She and her friends go to rural town and teach them how to be (or try to be) as slutty as they are. I personally think that's NOT good. Is anyone else nauseous?
Someone needs to put an end to this.
