I stopped paying much attention to music right about when MTV came around and turned music into music-video.
Normal people dont decide who is played anyway, whats the difference. Payola is the name of the game.
Lip syncing is "in" so they can dance with 20 backup dancers.
They should call those "productions", not "concerts".
I feel sorta sorry for todays teenagers who have to deal with so much crap.
edit: BTW, I do consider rap and hip-hop very legitimate forms of musical art. I just dont give two shits about image or videos.
