Nope, it is many millions of consumers who are responsible for all this crap. This one guy is just an important part of a team feeding them what they want to eat.

#6Reminds me of the Monkees. In the early days, the studio hired the best songwriters to write the tunes for them. After a while, the Monkees rebelled and insisted they could write their own songs.
And the Monkees pretty much ceased to exist.
Pretty much the same story for David Cassidy.

#10Does anyone know what's the equivelent in rap? Can I assume most mainstream rappers(Kanye, Wiz, 50 Cent etc.) heavily contribute to their own lyrics? I'm particularly curious about Eminem.
