There's a video by the NYT chronicling the creation of "The Middle" by Zedd, Maren Morris, and Grey. [1]
It began with a girl who recorded a short demo on her phone. After a year of workshopping and 15 different vocalists, they finally had their radio hit.
It's like a blockbuster movie. Big money goes in, big returns are expected, and lots of suits are involved. It's fun entertainment that needs to sell, but there's real talent there too.
