There's a number of recent "music performers" who have very little in the way of talent, yet somehow they have collectively managed to get signed up, do collaborations with each other as well as better know performers. One of the least talented of this group is Kei$ha - people are so easily suckered in by a drum machine & a good auto-tuner.
I am sick to death of studio collaborations for songs being pumped out. Some of these collaborations make no sense other than the artists in question work for the same label. So any song I like & discover it has a [artist] featuring [artist] tag, I refuse to buy. Wouldn't even bother to pirate it either, because I cannot for a second believe the performer(s) are doing a joint project for the love of the craft.
Why yes, I have a few opinions about the current state of the music industry.... :)
