Is the music industry a reflection of a corrupt society

[Electric_Head]

I didn`t realize I was upsetting folks enough to make them warn others of my powers.
Some folks need to get their heads out of their internet asses.

I don't believe anyone could simply 'evolve' into something as beautiful and complex as Justin Bieber, there must be some sort of omnipotent daddy figure responsible for his creation.

Justin Biebers dad is...Kevin Federline
but with lots of christian rhetoric...

The first page of this thread made me lol quite a bit.

Heart goes out to xarcane though. Poor guy was pissing in a sea of piss and he didn't even realize it.

yuh may have bn a bit hypocritical there

Nt rly, I don't care what art is and people can call whatever they want art. My point was the thought process behind people calling the stuff they like 'inherently art' while the stuff other people like inherently 'not art'. Pretty much just an ego-boost so people can feel good about what they like.

If a 16 year old kid bagging groceries can do it for the paycheck and not for 'the good', then some rich executive in an office can distribute music that a lot of people like for a paycheck too. Nothing wrong with it. People judge the 'super rich' for the most trivial stuff, but when poor people violently rob someone, they're excused and it's all empathy for them. Better yet, the wealthy get blamed for that as well. Profits aren't a bad thing.

I can't speak for everyone, but personally, I find it pretty easy not to violently rob people.
