That I could believe. Sad thing is how it wasn't always that way.
Absolutely agree. That is because in the past the talented artists were also the one's spotlighted in the mainstream music culture. Since the 80's and 90's the nature of the music industry's greed has increasingly mass produced untalented pawns to the extent that the mainstream is saturated with fake music, there is little room left for the talented and creative other than in the underground scenes.
On the plus side, everything works in cycles and balance. In the last few years there has been an increased resurfacing of talented and diverse artists being given mainstream renown. Quite frankly, music lovers have become sick and tired of having mass produced drivel blasted into our heads for so long that I predict a music revolution as powerful as the 50's and 60's is not far around the corner.
