Originality in Music

In a wonderful experience that was Call me if you get lost, Tyler the Creator opened my eyes to a realization when it comes to music; very few mainstream artists are original. 

With the age of fast consumed media, most artists, especially in hip hop adopt sounds that appeal to the mass audience in order to stack up streams and make the radio. This trend is visible on the Billboard Hot 100 which serves as a temporary pedestal before the songs are forgotten entirely. This is also proof that artists prefer quantity over quality.
