American idol has brought us Carrie Underwood who, some would argue is the one of the greatest country music vocalists of all time. The Voice has brought Cassadee Pope to us as a solo label. There are several other singers who come to mind when one thinks of these types of shows. Kelly Clarkson, Miranda Lambert and Chris Daughtry all have television shows to thank for their success.
Do you think that shows like The Voice and American Idol are helping or hurting the music industry?
Well it's certainly adding to it, that's for sure.
I think shows like that help the industry as much as they can. The bottom line though is that you have to be able to sing songs that fall in line with what radio stations want to play, and that's not always the best music being made.
Good point Azuri, and I think David Cook was a perfect example of that. He's got one of the best voices in music, but you don't hear him on the radio much.

I think this is very well put. You just aren't always going to hear the best music on the radio, but shows like American Idol can sometimes bring talent to light.
