Thread Name: Garbage music
Subject: RE: Garbage music
Its the music industry today. funny thing is, I will sit in the park and play some oldies and the HS kids go wow, what kind of music is that, I never heard it before. You see all they get is what the record companies push down their throats. If all you ever hear is rap growing up, you will be a rap fan ... hopefully I gave my kids a wide range of everything from opera to folk and big band and everything else. Today if you are a woman and don't have size D's and a size 3 body you will never get a contract even if you have talent. If you have no talent and fit the above mold, you will get a contract cause others will sing for you ... Likewise with the guys and the looks. You just don't see a mamma cass anymore or very rare.

There is very little modern music I like, there is some great artist out there today but the bulk is pretty much cookie cutter. One Nashville promoter told me that it cost 300K to get started with a new act. Hence the music does sound a lot alike because it is a system that worked and hence profit. Kinda nuts actually
