I listen to Jazz a lot. Really started getting into it about 4 years ago, but for the past year or so, it has become the dominant genre of music I listen to. What Jazz are you listening to?
For the past week or so I've been listening to
Brad Mehldau - Highway Rider
Stanley Clarke - The...
So we have one rapper. That's no where near country music. And country doesn't use ghost writers, they are acknowledged for their contributions, where the who purpose of ghost writers is their secrecy
Who? I'm just curious. most "urban music is co-written by the artist, I'm curious as to who has an established career without writing or co-writing their own music.
No i wasn't being sarcastic. You obviously don't understand what I am saying. I simply stated that Country music is the only genre where using a songwriters is still the norm, I never stated other genres don't use them.
and Country music is the only genre where songs written by others is still considered the norm. Music runs in waves and cycles. Its just the way it is. Even jazz does.

An interview from allaboutjazz.com. Its a great read, Scott's interviews are very candid and brash, he speaks his mind, its not your normal jazz artist interview. Profanity is included.
Not sure how many Jazz fans there are but Christian Scott has his fifth album coming out and his first studio album since 2006's Anthem. Should be dope. It drops March 30th. He's never disappointed me.
