Mun G has expressed his concerns about the increasingly rapid pace of music production in today’s industry, lamenting the decline in quality compared to the more deliberate and well-crafted approach that once defined the music scene.
The rapper argues that the pressure to quickly release music, driven by the rise of internet-based distribution, has led to a significant drop in the quality of modern music.
Mun G criticizes the ease with which music can now be distributed online, claiming it has fostered a culture of rushed production. He notes that many artists today spend just a few minutes in the studio before releasing their songs to the public. This haste, he believes, has resulted in a lack of depth and longevity in contemporary music.
He pointed out that this trend is not just a local phenomenon but a global issue, where the focus has shifted from creating timeless music to achieving instant success.
Mun G likened the process of making music to creating art, emphasizing that the time and effort invested in crafting a piece are reflected in its quality and lasting impact.
“Artists these days spend the shortest time in the studio. Studios are so accessible; songwriters think one word is enough. Generally, the music is rushed,” Mun G remarked. “They believe that if you’re making humorous songs, they should be simple musically. But music should have that special aroma, and that’s what makes it stand the test of time.”
In an industry increasingly driven by the need for instant gratification, Mun G calls for a return to the artistry and craftsmanship that once made music a lasting cultural force.
