Has anyone else noticed this trend of labels putting out exact replicas (whether in sound or image) of acclaimed artists from the past?

Like this guy for example, he's literally Sam Cooke.

I'll post more as they come to mind.

I remember someone posted this a couple of months ago and I'm pretty sure it didn't have even a million views then.

Literally two minutes of rock and roll posturing by a bunch of posh twats who precede to play the most studio polished tripe I've ever heard.

Also the clapping and "crowd" singing at the end like it's a stadium filler just makes me fucking sick.

I mean that should be obvious to anyone here but look at those kids in the comments...

Yes, it's been happening since the industry began.
The point of the industry is to make money if you haven't noticed, and if you have an archetype that has already made money, then you just copy it for a better chance of making money the same way.

Mac DeMarco kind of reminds me George Harrison a little at times.

they followed trends, but did them better,
I mean they were inspired, but they were basic enough to be marketable
