    I guess it depends whether you're making music for yourself or to sell to people.

    It's the difference between art and design.
    To me a lot of music is art, that was created by the artist for themselves, but even more nowadays is design – music that is created by producers and labels to sell to customers, moving with trends etc.

    Not sure where Doherty fits into all of this, I'd say he is an artist but not a very good one, a bit like Tracey Emin – pops up all over the place, very public but better known for their behaviour than their work,
