Welcomed for what? Your arrogance and high-and-mighty nature? You can keep all that. And what do you mean, "don't blatantly rip another song off".? That's a huge part of music making. No one comes from nothing. Everyone comes from something. Everyone plays their favorite recording artist's music first before they play their own. Everyone does covers at the beginning. And then, create their own music based off of what they've learned. It's ok to come up with something totally original, but a lot of times, it's best to take something old and simply put a new spin on it. That's how new great songs and new great styles of music are created. It doesn't just appear out of nowhere, it has to come from somewhere. You're not ripping it off, you're just barrowing an old style, and giving it something new.
