This paper looks at the British music industry, and the way in which it has reflected social change, to how it now moulds the images of celebrities and focuses on the media. The paper also discusses the view that the music industry is now without a soul and that talent is not necessary. The argument of the paper is highly focused around the theories from Napier-Bell and Adorno. The main focus points of this paper are the standardization of culture, celebrities, and the evolution of the British music industry. With extensive use of secondary literature, and continuous referral to theories by Adorno and Napier Bell, this paper theorises the evolution of the British music industry.
