Pop music demystified. Mr. Seabrook lifted the curtain and showed me the man pulling the levers behind the soundtrack to my childhood. As a 2000s era teen I was riveted by the boy band stories. Without divulging any spoilers, what made this book read like an enriching guilty pleasure was the common thread Mr. Seabrook wove through the history of hits. Seabrook is thorough, thought-provoking, and talented. Well done sir.

Fairly up to date. This book is fairly up to date with current practices in the music industry, songwriting, music celebrities, industry tensions brought about by technology. After reading this I deceided I need to read books more often.

The Hit Maschine. Basically this book is incredibly revealing in how he music industry operates in the present and continued to blow my mind the further I read as the truth was revealed to me

Very insightful. This book really demystified certain things I believed about the music industry
