i mean today's mainstrem pop music, R&B, Hip hop, rap are merely just show biz. show biz in a sense just to entertain people with flashy clothes(MTV), cool funky remixes, audio editing, etc. what happened to the meaning of art with these kind of music, lip synching and stuff like that, just listen to pink flyod,now thats an expression of art, enigma, mike oldfield, yanni, steve vai, Nygwie Mumstein, dream theatre, vangelis, michael hedges, ben harper etc these are called music, they put their heart and soul into it, when i listen to them i hear music. their contribution to music/art are tremendous with the sole desire just to promote good music and art. when i listen to 50cents or ludicris or eminem or missy elliot all i hear is just some one talking at the back(rapping) and some bass thumping and a bit of yo here and a bit of yo there and some elephant at the back, this is ridiculous, it just desecrate the meaning of music as an art
