Songwriting is an art form traced to ancient bardic oral tradition, which has existed in various forms throughout the world. Poems would be performed as chant or song. It’s a sacred art form that let people in .Into other people world. It has become a career for many people.And they have been able toc reate the most touching songs in the whole world. Michael jackon heal the world is a very touching song when you listen to the lyrics.It has a lot of deep meaning.They aren’t just lyrics they are real life lyrics that has happened all over the world .Poverty is a very real subject.

Musicians don’t always use their platform to talk about awarenes.Black eyed peas is a good example of it .They made a song called where is the love.The song ended up doing very well.And people use this song as an announcement that thing haven’t changed .And things are still aren’t the same.Songwriting was an oppotunity for people to share their thoughts on certain topics.Every songwriter isn’t the same .Some want to use it have fun with their lyrics.They aren’t thinking about how deep the lyrics should be . And that some fo the new generation of songwriters they are writing about anything.

Songwriters has changed throught the year . Because technology has now been invaded in the art.The song spread across avenues that songwriters don’t have controll of . If it get a good reception then it will become a hit.However , that doesn’t mean that it will be a classic song .That people will play in 20 years . Song to day because of the spread of technology that gets done very quickly. Any song that isn’t good will catch attention of a demographic.However that can be a disadvantage in the long run.People may not reasonate wit the song a month later.Because the 20 century of the viral machine that is happening in songwriting.

Songwriting hasn’t been taken seriously as an art form.It’s a quick get rich money scheme.That many people have participated in . This has caused the dying art form of songwriting.People on social media are asking why songwriters aren’t writing bridges as much. This has caused the debate online about songwriters.And how musicians don’t hire songwriters for their music.And that why a lot of musicians sound the same . And there isn’t a lot of variety in the music industry because they aren’t finding the underground of writers.Who have the skill to write good songs.

Mnay people are starting the question the career of songwriters.Or is it a career.It’s almost imposssible to make a living with it . Thi causes a decline in the songwriting industry for people to want to take part in. People don’t see the benefits.So why would they waste their time and energy if it could waste their time.And not just that the politics behind songwriting.When it comes to who wrote what that can cause problems.Because songwriters may ahve to face unfair splits.Where they might even give the singer credit for the song.Because of the politics behind it.

What the solution?

Gatekeep the songwriting industry . The music industry need to go back to gatekeeping the art form of songwriting.Treat it almost like being a Doctor.At the end of the day it’s a profession that many people don’t have just like being a Lawyer.Making it so open available to everyone which the music industry don’t have control on because of technology.Has ruined the art form.They have to think about what made the songwriting great in the first place.What made people fall in love with Ashanti song foolish.The emotion that people feel when singing that song over 20 years later think about that.

Billboard need to be more strict when it comes to sogns that become successful. There are song out there that are good.However they are songs that make no sense to get more attention just because they have numbers.Many people are still respecting the art form of songwriting.However , because they don’t have the nukbers.They don’t get enough attention.And billboards hot 100 needs to pay attention to that look for more songwriters that are making good music. Award them in the top 10 just because they amde spectacular music.Stop giving the ones that become succesful from tik tok a lot of attention because or else this will never end.

Awards shows need a rebrand and a fresh start.People are not watchign award hows as much.Because people aren’t excited about the newest musicians in town. They have to work with songwriters that are making msuic that is exciitng again .To help award shows get their vim back. Nominating musicians that have no future.And are just one hit wonders won’t work for them in the long run.Award shows have to partner  up with billboards and create a thing where they look for songwriters that are doing good music.And are doing good music

It’s the only was to save the songwriting industry.Labels have to change their style when it comes to looking for musicians. They need toc reate stars again which is a process in itself. They have to invest a lot of money in a musicians which is  a risk.Because the are talented people whoa r enot successful.Music industry shouldn’t allow technology to have so much of a say when it comes to what makes good music.They need to ignore the numbers that they see and popularity in order to get good songwriters.They need ti be ignored.Technology having a lot of say ruined the songwriting industry.

The music industry gave too much power to technology when it comes to what makes good music. Youtube has a huge infleuce because people look at views.And people will follow trend.And will pretend to like a song that they don’t even like just because it’s popular.Popular music houldn’t be in the vocabulary of any music experts.They need to focu on the music again.In order for the songwriting industry to rise again. This will work when labels will startvlookign for talent again. Looking for talent that are undeground.And not popular on social media actually finding them in person could be life changing for the sognwriting industry.
