The real stars..

The real stars of modern-day music

There are so many singers out there today, each one trying to be a star or make their mark on the charts. But there are a lot less that actually write their own songs. 

There are so many singers that are out there today, getting recognised as well-known celebrities and getting a lot of praise for their newest song. But the truth is many of them don’t deserve that praise. The praise should go to the songwriters, the real talent. They spend so much time working away, trying to write the next big hit, whilst the person they are writing it for is off somewhere partying or relaxing or advertising some other product. The “megastars” singing the songs get tons of money for them, yet the songwriters only get a small fraction of the profits. How unfair is that? Its like a person in a house fire getting more money to be rescued than the fire fighter is getting paid!

So I congratulate the singers that write their own songs and/or play their own music. They are the ones that are original and creative. They are the ones that choose to express their own opinions through their music rather than just sing about someone else’s love and hate. They are a lot more talented and are the people who actually deserve to be ruling the charts.

Being a singer should be about the music, not about how you look on stage or if you can make others feel jealous of you. The music should be the most important thing.
