What makes you angry? Get it off your chest so we can laugh at your impotent rage.

I agree with you. Not just in the music-buisness, but in any creative media, be it television, radio, commercial websites, magazines, comics, computer-games, toys, newspapers, etc.
As someone who'se worked in a creative media industry, I can assure you that there is a spark of originality amongst some of the employees there. The truth is that the marketing department does not want to take any risks and only wants to give the greenlight to projects with a proven success - hence lack of innovation. Although I do secretly wonder if the company bigwigs are part of a conspiracy of no-originality and general cultural dumbing-down.
However, this tends to supress the originality of people you meet in real life. While there's some out there, a lot of people are the victim of dumbed-down mass-culture.
I used to be a big fan of Rap-music back in the 80's, but don't like the direction it's taken at all and dislike most modern 'rap' songs.
