Also, we're looking at modern artists through today's lens. Who's to say in 30, 40 years today's musicians won't be considered legends? | |||

Personally, I can name more great bands of the 70s and 80s than the 50s and 60s. What's great and genius to you will most likely be different to what's great and genius to today's listeners. | |||

What matters today is not talent, it’s not skills, it’s not creativity, today people are known and listened by a large public, what we call pop arts because they have access to a powerful and ubiquitous media. Media that can influence people’s habits and behavior independetly of their content. The entire foundation of today’s culture is consumption. We have also to take into account that only a product of middle or poor quality can reach a huge audience. Maybe it’s not even quality that counts anymore but rather some artist’s personality or character. He’s funny, she’s sexy, they are a meme : that’s what counts today, to reach a large public and to sell more through them. We have to see an artist today, a musician, more like a product. A product that we can consume. More like a package of products that goes with I. A singer that at the same performs songs promotes a product (a Britney parfume or a random rapper’s sneakers), promote habits (go to a Greek island) or propaganda (Nike shoes, Budweiser beer). Today, you can’t consume Bach or Beethoven, it’s too complcated to be undestood by the mass, it’s hard to sell in package (there is no Bach or Beethoven parfume) it’s to hard to be executed and appreciated in a fast paced society like ours. I can but hope that the future is bright l, but given that AI will soon be a force to be reckoned with and youths thinking they know better without having gained the practical knowledge, etc. I very much doubt the heart and soul can be overcome when we look at geniuses of old in comparison to the quality being produced today. Still, like I said we live in hope. | |||
