God... I'm trying to say that today's music scene is both more demanding, discerning, and filled with musicians of higher skill than Santana...But anyway, even if someone were to meet the demands of today's music scene, they would still have to make it to MTV in order to become rich and famous. And that relies not on talent, but on image, trend-coherence, and writing stuff that teenagers can make out to.
