[quote:malfunkshun007:MV8yMzE5MDY5XzM5NTMxNDAzXzg3OTRFQzE=] Autotune. U can take a fairly attractive face with a willingness to shock and assign them a "sound". I have gone above and beyond to teach my children the difference between art and the money making propaganda machine. Some of this stuff has a catchy beat and people call it music. There is very little if any individuality in todays media. Movies are included. Look at all of the cgi remakes. They are just out of ideas. And it is a business. Lets face it... It is easier to find some kid willing to sell his soul for fame with no desire in the creative process. As long as they get fame, money and sex. That is much easier than actually producing quality media. Janine u r much too pretty and young looking to have experienced those bands haha. I mean i would not have guessed it by looking at ur pic but good for you! Those are memories that are becoming harder to come by. Glad you got the opportunity to see such classics. I have an extensive list of my own. [/quote]

I'm asking this question because I am a relatively young man and I am finding that more and more of the mainstream musicians and band are producing crappy music based on shallow concepts using technology to bridge the gap between the singer's ability and an acceptable level of quality. I think back to the groups I grew up with back in the 90's like S Club 7, Backstreet Boys, even Green Day and I am finding it harder and harder to find a group out of Hollywood they compare to. I can find groups that are even better than them, but they are independent of Hollywood.
The other thing I have noticed is that with the possible exception of one group out of Canada none of these groups are really marketed for young people. As for that one group hardly anyone outside of Canada even knows who they are. And even in Canada they are not that well known. I guess the best person really marketed for young people in America is Jesse Mcartney which I think is really sad.
