Am I the only one that doesn't believe in "over saturation" in music

[noumena]

Waiting years makes sense for radio head and arcade fire, who start from scratch. It makes no sense for people like future who start with a fruity loops library.

Radio head had a great run of like 6 projects from 97-2007, future had a great run of 7 projects from January 2015-February 2016, both great artists though

You have no idea what you're talking about.

because when its over saturated, the quality is never all good

It depends on the music and how often you drop also. Sometimes been great shyt can overload peope if they don't get enough resting space to digest it. Sometimes it's good to let someone miss you too, but not for too long. I normally think once a year or twice a year is fine. Wayne for example dropped so much sub par shyt I was never excited for him really in the latter stages. Pac's on the other hand dropped could drop lots and hold my attention. K-Rino releases regularly and I throughly enjoy his albums. It all depends, but I'd say ideal is twice a year if it's high quality, if not wait and drop 1 a year. Anything more for non established artists is too long...

Hov is the exception. He and X were the first ones post Big Daddy Kane that were successful on dropping more than 1 project per calendar year. Everyone else started doing it, and their efforts were in quality.

Now, the mixtape game over saturated with music and people are

Man, a lot of the arguments you are making are not based on anything but assumptions and biases


You have no idea, what casual fans require. In my estimation they require good music. When the music falls off like Wayne did after C3 people were less than eager to check for him. When he was on fire, everything he dropped got played he because it was good

You don't know how long the actual process of making Illmatic took. Useless diatribe

Ja rule didn't over saturation and his constant stream of hot singles is not why he's not in demand now. He was a singles artist and the market responded as such no difference between Ja rule and Fetty wap. When the decline in quality of Ja rule singles fell off, so did he

Missy wasn't overesuation either. She was the same as Ja. they made the most of their run. Missy was a novelty. Neither of their careers were harmed by dropping a lot of music when they were relevant

You are a lazily making the assumption that if Ja and Missy would've taken more time then the music will have been better received

More time doesn't mean better music because we have no idea about what goes into these artist recording process

Whats the point of this post?

Quality is not sacrificed for quality

No, people start claiming over saturation when the music doesn't sound as good.

I mean it's also when they get tired or bored of the sound. I think Spitta still puts out quality but there's people who feel like they've heard everything they need to hear from him and that he puts out too many projects.

This all depends on the artist actually. Some artists can output and create faster than others. Some artists need time to put something of quality together.
