Due to the ease of music technology, more people are making music. With so many people cranking out LP's, EP's, mixtapes, podcasts, etc, there's always something being made that is "for you". Like, there are so many sub genres of genres that it's kinda mind boggling.

Are you reading any blogs?
Podcasts?
Visiting bandcamp?
Taking any chances on someone you've never heard of?
Going to live shows?
Avoiding the SKIP button on your Pandora station?
Doing some research on Wikipedia? Last.fm?

Again, I give people the side eye when they proclaim nothing is good. Sure there's more to sort through, but there's always something out there for somebody.

And this line?

>i still haven't seen an artists of today
>that can compare to MJ or stevie or prince in their primes (or
>even past their primes)

....that's not really fair to the artists making work today. If you don't like it you don't like it. But to say, "This ain't no Innervisions!" That's unfair. I guess I'd really need to know how you find new music in order to really form an appropriate response to your post, but I'm finding out new artists all the time. My problem is that I don't have the time to listen to all the new stuff dropping.
