From short skirts to flashy bling to voice edited singing, what has happened to TALENT?
I don't know about you guys, but the only time I open my ears to mainstream music is at the bar because I really don't have a choice in the matter.
Now a days, I feel like anybody can become famous in the music industry. The new thing seems to be voice editing so musicians sound like robots. How is this talent? It's not.
I feel like back when records were still in use is when music was at its purest. There was no fancy technology to altar a voice, it was just PURE rock and roll. Sweat, blood, and tears ya know? I have a record player and I love it.
The cracking of the sound, the spinning of the record, the nostalgic feeling it omitts..I'd much rather pop on a Steely Dan record then turn Much Music on to see the latest robot voice!
In reaction to mainstream music, I compiled a list of artists that beat the buzz:
1. Anita O'Day (1950s jazz)
2. Steely Dan (If you love to groove)
3. Bob Marley (classic)
4. Crosby, Stills, and Nash (Folk)
5. Fleetwood Mac (if you love to dance)
