I would rather fall flat on my face than try to just make a quick dollar by making music that fits into the radio format right now. It does nothing for me.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have a real issue with radio these days. I just am not into the current music.
Ironically, the success I've experienced at country radio has left me ostracized from pop and other formats of radio.
Most of the music you hear on the radio today is developed for making money. It doesn't feel true or honest. You can feel it in the music.
Music has a way of getting under your skin.
You make music to change the radio, not make music for the radio.
There is not a lot that keeps me glued to the radio as I used to be.
All that pop that you see on the radio? It's just the worst crud I've ever heard in my life. It's designed to make money, and that's about it.
I feel completely fortunate to have this outlet for something I don't really feel like I have a choice in, to make music. I've got to make it.
I've tried it all. I'd love to do radio plays. I think that one should be open to everything and shouldn't limit oneself.
I feel fortunate about being able to make the music I want to make and getting away with it.
