I tend to look at the term “success” a little differently than most people. Success in the music industry, to most people, is racking up an exorbitant amount of sales.

Okay, so I’m not necessarily saying that a majority of today’s music industry is based off of a bunch of talentless hacks that are pretty to look at (or maybe I am…), but I think most of you will agree with me that today’s music scene doesn’t necessarily have any exceptionally talented individuals… At least when compared to a legend like BoA. I’m not talking “new” BoA. I’m talking about old BoA. “Girls On Top” BoA. More »
