Unfortunately it seems that the music industry insists on marketing poor quality, and that hurts the enjoyment of the genre.

Well you see what it is is they only care about the profit portion these days and not whether or not the music being sold is quality product. Rather than let an artist take his time and take months, possibly years, making the best album they possibly can (which is the way it should be done) they would rather have them just release the utmost minimal workload placed into an album so they can hurry up and sell it and cash in more profits off of them. And the really sad thing is these days the artists have the exact same mind set and could care less about the music or making respectable music and willingly let these record execs use them like puppets as long as they get a nice big paycheck in exchange for their soul. Artists like Missy Elliot and Puff Daddy have openly admitted that they no longer even try to write ill rhymes and just be sure to have good beats and hooks and everyone will still buy their records anyway even if they are purposely making them shitty. Basically calling all of their "fans" morons in the process.....which is really what they are because they are right....these idiots will still keep buying their records except for the smart ones that know better and only download them. Which is why they get so pissed off about the issue. Bottom line if they put out quality material that was actually worth buying people would buy it and if record companies would stop capitalizing on the business by charging 18 to 20 dollars for a CD that at best has maybe 4 good songs out of 14 and then only giving the artist a quarter of this money people would actually buy the albums and the artists wouldn't bitch about money (not like they need it) they really have no business bitching at all anyway. Went off topic a little there. Basically they don't care about making a good album anymore they care about money....thats the only reason they became rappers because they want money and fame so no.....they aren't talented because they don't have to be anymore and even though they couldn't put out a fantastic album if you gave them a whole decade to work on it they still won't even try to.
Asta!!
