Why We Should Support Real Music
by T. C. Henderson
The music industry of today is very fickle. Everyone seems to be caught up in finding the "next big thing." Performers want the most popular rapper or "singer" on their songs without caring whether this person is actually talented. Very few music acts, or "professional celebrities" as I call them, are true artists. As such, even fewer of them have lasting careers.
The goal of a true artist should always be to create a lasting work. Legendary artists are celebrated for their ability to sing, write, or perform timeless songs. Is there anyone in the current industry whom we will still remember 10 or 20 years from now? Or even think about two years from now, for that matter? Songs like Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On?" or Stevie Wonder's "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" were written decades ago. Yet they are still important when tragedies occur or in political circles.
I believe the time has come for us to return to recognizing true talent. Consumers should stop buying into "packaged" singers. By that, I mean we should stop supporting people who have no talent just because they are attractive or well-dressed. A catchy song does not always uplift the world. I say listen to the words and not just the beat. Good music can change your whole world view and expand your mind.
