Musical Madlibs

Being creative is hard! Sometimes the people who are supposed to be themost creative have a hard time, well, creating stuff. The dreaded writer’s block can strike at any time, and if not prepared, artists might be stuck in a rut they’ll never get out of. Lucky for them, many musicians have a formula for making songs when they can’t get their creative juices flowing. It’s a simple system that helps them create the name of their new smash hit. Here are a few examples of how musicians fill in the blank, Madlibs style.
