Economy affects music - It's been some time now since the early 90s when bands were coming out with some of the freshest material seen in years.
Since then, there has been a different President in office. For many, the 2000 era has been dismall for music thus far.
Hip hop continues to sell and post prog rockers seek something when forced to look past such 90's hitters like Pearl Jam, SoundGarden, Dave Matthews and the such.
In womens music, there has certainly been a void since the times of Alanis, Sarah Mclachlan, Jewel, No Doubt and others.
Since then, music has become even more about celebrity. We see all of our music pop stars receiving top tabloid coverage.
Brittany Spears, Avril Levigne, Christina!
When does it stop? When do we go back to the root of good music?
Is our musical creativity connected so heavily to the state of politics that we can't experience such culture unless the economy allows it?
In what ways does the economy effect our creative output?
