I guess in the vein that they are in it would be wise to not slam them.
Thought I'd try the library idea for a change from trying to write songs for other artists who all seem to be writing their own these days.

That sounds like what I do. If it were metal and going to "World's Greatest Whatever" on FX channel I'd hit it pretty hard, but for pop stuff like you're describing I'd just find something popular in the style, and use it as reference.
Most of this stuff is done along the lines of "make it sound like (insert mega-hit here)" but change something about it so it's not obvious. ;-)
