Perhaps my question was too vague. by "style" i mean certain 
trademarks, things that if you heard the song and didn't know who it 
was by, you'd assume a certain artist. But with some music, i find 
that the artist's "style" is merely a lack of creativity...its kinda 
hard to explain, but the way i see it, it has nothing to do with 
commercializing.
