your wrong.. you along with myself have just grown up... MTV has ALWAYS been the same following differant fads and such molding itself to fit the american youth.. go watch some early 90's mtv... come on man.. did hammer have a message.. lol NO of course not.. lol mtv is a complete joke, and is PURELY entertainment based... you have just grown out fo the entertainment it provides..

the only reason i kinda liked mtv in the mid 90's was they played greenday and rancid videos....

my take on the music industry:

it is a game, one that the "artists" play the people like pawns. they have fights, marrages, etc all for publicity. they want to be the biggest and best, they do stupid things to get on MTV news so by repitition of hearing their names you want to buy their stuff. the fight between eminem and christina agulara/britney i think was a whole publicity thing, just because if they can take air time away other singers, then they are the headlines. i have sat down and actualy thought about the pointless crap they talk about on MTV, and it makes me sick. music should be just that. maybe the band does some stuff to support the message they want to get across(rallys, charity work etc... if that dosnt conflict their ever so important image) im more impressed with bands who dont care what people think of them, and do things because they want to.
