JOHN MELLENCAMP Says Rock N Roll Is Never Coming Back
posted by Bodhi -
John Mellencamp says quote “MTV came along and catapulted bands to the world and rock became so much bigger than it ever would have. MTV was a huge thing. So rock has really morphed and changed and is so far away from what it started as that I don’t believe we can find our way back. Plus, there’s no business model to get it back. Where is that model today? It doesn’t exist. What, streaming? You really think that’s going to catapult a 22-year-old songwriter into the national spotlight?"
