@hanshotfirst It's great to see that people are surprised why the biggest pop stars make such music videos. A lot of these videos can't be explained if you simply watch them and many, many of them are beyond creepy for a silly, mainstream, teenage pop song. Like Cyrus' Baby Talk video... Jesus Christ.

"She has shown musicians that they don't need to bow down to record companies." That's way too optimistic, sadly I don't believe they have much freedom. These stars wouldn't be successful anymore if they would truly go against the record companies.

Michael Jackson is probably the best example. We all know what happened to him. All the rumours, accusations and then the paranoia he faced for years and then died. His family members are convinced he was murdered.

I've seen this really often in the last 5-10 years. Musicians getting some hit piece against them or they disappear from magazines, etc. after they speak up against record companies or the industry. Or even forced to hospitals for psychic evaluations as it happened with Kanye.

Mainly we can see the bright side of being a famous musician but I wouldn't want to be in their place.

I love this. I think parents have a huge impact on their kids music taste and I believe music can change your life. Parents should always show their kids music from their time. Kids nowadays growing up with pop music that all sounds the same need to be cultured and understand the history of music!
