    The music channels just put up the most commercial groups and singers.Hell,they might not even be talented,but if they are getting publicity they will be on a music channel <_<

    You know what I hate? How all the good artists (rap, rock, pop, etc...) are all the ones behind the scenes. The good artists die off because they're not popular. The ones that DO make it big, they turn into the rest of the manufactured bull---- because of their managers and producers. The music industry is slowly, but surely, killing music.

    That happens a lot,and it pisses me off too.Eminem used to be the best with his first albums,but when he got more popular he got more commercial and worse,Encore blowed compared to any of his other albums.

    Papoose is one rapper behind the scenes who could rip up any commercial rapper,and he isnt even signed yet.Eventually he'll get signed,and start becoming more commercial and manufactured,because of his managers and producers as you said.I agree with you completely on that.

    Yes, he's a prime example of such manufacturing.

    there corporate sponsers make them tone it down... and contraversial music(which is good) ends up becoming conformed music(which is bad) and it all sounds the same... thats why i like people like immortal-technique he's turned down several offers to go "pro"... musicians lose there identities

    This is mainly why I like Classic Rock. Nobody told them what to produce, and when they did, they usually said, "---- you".
