I look at the current Music charts, and the talent pool I believe is really low in the Music scene at the moment.

I'm not saying that all of the songs within recent years are bad (because that would be stupid,) but the Music Industry is still relying on the talent of singers from a decade or two ago to deliver good vocals.

I mean the current number one in the UK Charts is Beyonce, don't get me wrong she has a great voice, but she's been around since the 90's, It's not exactly a new vocal powerhouse is it?

And I know that previous efforts such as The X Factor and American Idol only churned out the odd successful act, I do believe that to be the case only because the Music industry were being snotty, and didn't want to give their best song material to what they viewed as "Reality TV riff raff," even though a lot of these contestants were actually talented, and could've brought something very much needed to the Music Industry (i.e good singing.)

As I've said on another thread, I've been watching a bunch of different American Idol Seasons recently, and yeah obviously there are some acts that aren't very good imo, but there were definitely some that could sing some of the current big singers off the park, yet unfortunately most of them that I've seen (bar Adam Lambert,) never were really given a proper chance by the Music Industry.

Am I the only one that thinks that a new singing show needs to come out, to actually find good singing talent for the charts?

And just to add, even if the winner isn't easily marketable, if they're talented then the Industry should at least try to push them imo.
