You can only start a boyband if you kill one of the ones already out there.

Meaning of the quote

This quote suggests that in order to form a new boyband, you would need to get rid of an existing one. The idea is that there can only be a certain number of boybands in the music industry at any given time, so creating a new one would require removing an older one. This is a humorous way of saying that the music industry is very competitive, and it can be difficult for new groups to break through and become successful.
