Name your music genre, and you know they write their own songs and music. Rock, Country, Even rap artists, which is more of a collaboration of efforts, write their own music. Though I'm not so sure about rap nowadays, as i haven't listened to any in the last 5 years. From what I hear its getting as bad as pop, but i could be mistaken.
Anyway, current pop stars seem to have no musical talent whatsoever. Yeah they can sing and look pretty, which is why pop stars exist, but who the hell writes their music? Lyrics don't count, as thats far easier than writing music.
As near as I can tell, its all written by music producers. Now its normal for them to help out a band to get a good sound, the AC/DC album "Black Ice" had assistance from their producer. But they write their own music and lyrics. Producers "Adjust" As you would say, and make sure they sound great while giving the band what they want. It would appear that music producers have figured they can just do it all themselves if they find the right singer that looks pretty.
Britney Spears has decent music. There, I said it. Now I don't know if she wrote any of it, but its still better than the whole "High School musical, Hannah Montana, Justin Bieber" Fiasco.....errrrr, fad.
Miley Cyrus, whom plays Hannah Montana, had this song from the movie Bolt nominated for best original song at the Globe Awards.
Yes, best original song. Sounds like a mix of country and pop. I don't think theres a single original note in there, the whole thing screams that it was another cut-and-paste song that they threw a little flair in it to make it appear different.
So what I'm asking is are there any pop stars that write their own music? Current ones, that is. I would then actually have some respect for them. Even copying other peoples music, like rap and pop stars have been doing for decades, shows a better use of talent. Hell Will Smith did it with his song "Men in Black"
