Indeed.
And I am simply pointing out that there tends to be an imagined gap betwixt pop as being marketed and therefore 'fake' and other music as somehow being more 'real'. I just think it ALL gets sold at you at some level and it's pointless us the consumers thinking it doesn't*. I bet Bob Dylan's last release, for example would have a big marketing budget like a Gaga album - it's just sold differentlty, in a more 'credible' way because it's supposedly more 'credible' music.
*Except metal, which is eternal and throbs within the hearts of warriors born obviously.
