To that Chronicle reporter dude on KFOG this AM who wrote that Pop is Dead: Sure, pop is dead. Because there is no more pop. Everything is too fractionated to have that type of all engrossing, hypnotic, musical hold over the majority of a national or global audience--but that doesn't mean that there isn't music happening. These three artists are moving music forward. No doubt.
We live in a disposal culture, true. Yet innovation still exists.
