Feels like (damn I'm about to sound really old) nothing is original these days. Everything is reused and resampled or sometimes just direct ripoffs.
Now I love a cover and I like to hear a different artists interpretation of the same song. But when they take that song, change the lyrics and the essence of the song and make something else. For me that's ripping off the original.
Ah, I understand now. I've noticed that in music too, also in movies and TV shows. It feels at times like the entire industry is catering to the widest possible audience rather than trying to do something interesting and letting the people come. I know there are people that are trying new things, writing their own songs, etc, but I feel like they get drowned out by everyone else.
