They have been running old SNL episodes on Saturday evenings for some time now and almost every re-run episode has a bona-fide star musical guest in it. Nowadays, it's mostly performers being hyped/pumped.
You've said this before and I think you're wrong. SNL has consistently had a mix of star musicians and indie/up-and-comers.

Look at the previous seasons to see for yourself.
