Well, it’s sad to say, but maybe that’s what you get when most of your “artistic” success is based on promotion and not real talent.

That describes the entire industry these days.

The entirety of recorded sound and film is virtually available to “everyone” and still they obey the manufactured charts. They can listen to/view the “great works” of any era, they can listen to whatever regional “underground” sound there is. But then at the end of the day the charts reflect the same 1% acts that are spoonfed 8 hours a day on commercial “hits” radio. But it is the industry that makes the hits (with server farms) not the listeners.
