>In Japan, studios hire musicians to make openings, endings and the soundtrack. They even release the music of their shows. Why this don't happen in America? Action cartoons have generic "action" music but not iconic songs. Comedies have nothing but silly songs. Good music can change everything.
The American music industry literally imploded on itself. Bands, artist, singers, producers, song writers, musicians, DJ's, radio stations, dancers, even the fucking janitors who cleaned up after a concert got greedy as fuck. It got to the point where our own movies and shows are banned for us because someone who's closely related to Michal Jackson's 4th cousin step brother's niece twice removed friend who hummed 2 notes of a different song at a wedding in the 70's. To put it simply, we just can't have music in stuff anymore.
If you want music and songs in your stuff you either have to make your own or pay an arm and a leg just to get 5 notes to be played. That's why you see nothing but indie music and soundcloud stuff. All this stuff is done in house. And even if you could pay, things change too often like copyrights that'll force you to either remove the song down the line or ban the show/movie/game entirely. This entanglement just isn't worth the effort for any up and coming creator.
>I can only think in two modern examples: Remember the fight between Garnet and Jasper in Steven Universe? The animation and the choreography were shit but the song turned it into the peak of the show. People loved it
So your examples aren't the same as using some famous bans like Japan. Their music industry is a thousand times better off than ours.
