If it sells then people like it. Ain't that the whole point? Make music people like. Music we can relate to. Not new original stuff, it doesn't matter if ten people have done the same song/verse! It's all in who's the people like better! I recorded a track a while back that was Edgar Alan Poe's The Raven with a hook and a few extra lines here and there, local radio played the f**k out of it! Everybody loved it even though I only wrote maybe...10-15 lines of it.

You want stuff that's got no sampling, remixes or whatever, stay away from rap. Stick to rock or reggae or something.
