In the days of our youth, you actually had to have some talent or an angle to get your stuff sold. Today the slick merchandising accomplishes the deed.

Look at the garbage they put on the cable channels. Why should you I or anyone know who the hell the Kardashians are? Instead they are wildly popular. Kim was on the Apprentice last week selling her perfume line. It’s enough to gag a maggot.
I believe that people are pushed forward today for political purposes. While it does feed the Dem vs Rep paradigm, it’s more intended to take down our society so that certain forms of governance can prevail. The destruction of our culture makes all things possible for those who would destroy us.
My wife wanted to watch the music awards last night. I caught about half an hour of it. Honestly, my first inclination was to laugh. Here was an awards show, all blown up out of nothing, presenting nothing (of value) for entertainment, and awarding nothing (of substance) in particular. Some of it was okay, did have entertainment value, but the majority of it was so blatantly bad that you’d almost have to be in a trance to appreciate it.
Even the worst offerings received a standing ovation. It was a group of ‘artists’ standing in support of another ‘artist’, and little else. “Hey, if we don’t stand and support each other, who else will?”
Wow. Such vacant people... you’re right about JayZ. It baffles the mind that folks would waste their time and money on most of this.

You NAILED it.
