That wasn't what I was saying. I was saying that because anyone can become huge in Britain, not just rap artists and Pop Punk bands, it means that bands experiment a lot more. They will try out new things because they know that as long as they are talented at the music they make then they stand a good chance of getting famous. American artists don't get this freedom, they either stick to the formula or else they (usually) get nowhere. I'm not saying Britain is better because it has better mainstream music, I'm saying that the British artists aren't afraid to try something different with music because they know that ANYONE can get somewhere over here. You look at the best, original bands we have had. I doubt that they would have been quite as fortunate if they had started off in America.
