VIDEO : Morrissey Says Major Labels Are Force-Feeding Ed Sheeran And Sam Smith to The Public

In a new interview with Boulder Weekly, Morrissey takes aim at what he considers an increasingly falsified current musical climate. Morrissey said, "There are no bands or singers who become successful without overwhelming marketing,. Everything is stringently controlled, obvious and predictable, and has exactly the same content. So, we are now in the era of marketed pop stars, which means that the labels fully control the charts, and consequently the public has lost interest. We are force-fed such [artists] as Ed Sheeran and Sam Smith. There?s no spontaneity now, and it all seems to be unsalvageable."
