Who are today's musicians?

Taylor Swift becomes first musician to claim entire Top 10 on Billboard Hot 100
Since the music industry died in 2008, you can pretty much count all known musicians in top charts on one hand. The music is bland and generic, probably written entirely by computers or the same person.

So who are these artists that can keep performing when there is no money left to pay for it all?

I just seen a conspiracy theory that Taylor Swift is actually a clone of Zeena Lavey the former high priestess of the satanic church.

I would say that real music died way before 2008. The best music ever made was created between 1960-1980, reaching its peak in 1967 during the summer of love. By 1980, music began to die off, and by 1990, it was totally dead. This is of course, only my personal opinion.

Music died for me when it became a "Product".

I was a professional musician and got to know "the industry"
all too well....Unfortunately.

Spice Girls was too commercial, but their independent careers after the breakup gave much more authentic songs.

I think the music industry was fine until the Covid19 era. I listened to the following genres: Techno, Trance, Electronica, Electronic, Electric, Industrial Glitch, Dance, Hard Rock, Symphony, and Caribbean music. Since 2016 I've been making my own remixes and since 2024 I'm writing my own songs and have become my own favorite music artist.
