All you're doing is talking about how their eras differ. Major labels could afford for artists to release a grip of moderately successful albums and keep those artists around before the download era. Now we have all these cookie cutter, copycat artists, because those labels need hits out the gate and don't wanna take chances. Essentially, you're just describing WHY Bruno is doing karaoke. You say it took longer for Prince to "get his voice, music and sound all done" but how do you know when Bruno hasn't gotten his own done yet and just copies others like the Jay Pharoah of music? Like I said elsewhere in the post, holla at me when he finds his own sound. I look forward to him being great.
