''Hit-Making Industry''

I have a beef with the music industry. In fact, I don't think it should be called "Music" because it's more like "Hit-making". For every Jasmine Sullivan or Jodeci that comes along, there's at least a few dozen T-Pains or Lil' Waynes pumping out what they deem as music. What really gets to me is the power and influence that they have on this generation. These teens (and some adults; let's be real) hold on to their every word. It's to the point where as long as you have a catchy hook and a hot beat, you are the greatest artist ever. Don't believe me? Check this out:



I ain't gon' lie, that "Johnson Johnson" part is hilarious but c'mon. She got that baby lotion squeeze?! Really?! (smh haaaaaaaaaaaard). Although the industry always had artists who liked to have fun, most of it had a message. When's the last time you heard a song that had you moving like this:



Some positive stuff the grown folks can cut a rug too. Sorry for the little rant but hey, that's what the blog is all about. Until next time...
