+292 These days it seems like some artists get payed for doing nothing. Somebody else writes their song lyrics, writes their music, plays their music, produces their music, and even though they're singing, there is somebody editing their voice to sound decent. It's sad we have no idea who these people are, amirite?

It's also sad that all of these processes need to be done to turn out an average song. People weren't doing this 30 years ago...they'd just play and get recorded.

I, personally, don't like scrillex but I cannot for one second say they're not talented. Please, go learn and try to make one of their songs, and then come back and talk to us. Actually, don't come back if you're going to talk like this. I understand you have an opinion but there are tons of other ways to state it than blatantly offending someone. Rant over, thank you.

I do write music and I take a lot of time and effort doing so. I don't sit at a computer desk churning out shitty whining noised and tedious bass lines. I believe in proper heartfelt music, not computer ear-abusing media-fed bulllshit

I'm not disagreeing with you when you say you appreciate proper heart felt music. I do too. But we aren't the only people in this world. People have diverse opinions, and you don't have to agree, but you don't have to freak out.

And this is why I just won't listen to artists like this. Plus, their music usually isn't as good(in my opinion) as a band or artist who puts a lot into it themselves.

And THAT my friends, is why I love youtube musicians... they do everything on their own (writing, singing, producing, filming music videos, etc.).

Plenty of older songs have been written by other people.

DBSK didn't write their own songs, but at least they were heartfelt and had emotions..unlike a lot of the songs on the radio

There are a lot of musicians who write and produce their own music, although there's nothing wrong with an occasional collaborator.
