Of course music for the masses and product have entwined with each other from the start. But when did creativity and authenticity lose its say? Why do flashing lights, dance crews, and earned dollar bills factor so highly into judgement of award deserving music nowadays? It's a popularity contest. An image. Nothing more. In a nutshell, that was the Grammys which is parallel to the quality of our music industry.
people can argue which performances were better than others and who deserved what....but i could care less at which model strutted down the runway the best.
Where is Creativity? Where is the Art? Where is Music? The type of music that can make you cry. The type of music that can make you smile. Music you really feel. That the creator's can feel. The passion. Where's the passion? Seems like there's a need for a new awards show that recognizes art, not image.
