In reply to Jamie.

What's crazy is, the artists these days that choose to showcase their actual talent, are in fact mostly British (Adele, Sam Smith, Ed Sheeran, Ellie Goulding, Jessie J, Little Mix (the fifth harmony alternative), James Bay, John Newman, Coldplay, to name but a few)... This music industry would be completely full of sex, big egos, tired dancing & pop garbage if it wasn't for those "bred outside the states" artists you speak so down of, which is weird to me cos the US like british artists alot... American music alone has been slacking for years now, and its only getting worse... So I hope those 'way more talented people' you suggested actually make it big!
