I don't think people need to stop supporting it if they really like it. Despite the current state of music, North, South, wherever, you like what you like...I mean, even if the labels are dictating the styles, and for all the force feeding, there is SOMEONE truly feeling it enough to still lay down money for a CD or concert ticket. I detest the lemmings/sheeple aspects of people, but alot of the music still fulfills a need, regardless of quality **sigh**.

That's why I say it's really about balance....alternatives. A return to a more multi-faceted mainstream music scene. It can't be all socially conscious or super-lyrical or party or trap rap, etc...
