What the fuck is up with all this electro-pop shit? Have you noticed every goddamn pop and r&b song sounds exsactly the goddamn same? Nobody on mainstream radio writes original legitimate music anymore. They just do shit because everyone else does it and all literally the same robotic loop. Ugh.
I agree. I mean I won't lie, I like a couple of songs that'll come on the radio, but for the most part it's just Kanye West trying to disguise the fact that he can't sing by using that annoying electronic voice. And there are some shitty "rock" songs, too.
man i gotta say, radio music is an industry where money is made. you gotta look deeper to discover good music. now british radio is a different story - DUBSTEP
dude dont listen to the radio then the radio plays the lame songs that everyone knows start getting into your local music scene and find out some new artists to listen to broaden your horizons man
That's the key word, mainstream. There is a shitload of great music out there; it just aint mainstream. So no, music today doesn't suck. Mainstream music today sucks.
In the 90's MTV and mainstream radio were still full of creativity. It used to be popular to be creative. Dunno what happened there.
people are running out of ideas for meaningful music, but now its cool to sing about nothing so... its all good. IM ON A BOAT!!!
thats not true just stop listing to the popular bullshit bands do some deep research and web browsing and shit you can find some fucking awesome bands they arent as well known cause they dont care about getting famous they just have a passion for music
yeah dude I mean I agree with the general consensus, you've got to look deeper than mainstream music if you want to listen to good music. Either deeper or older IMO, just because it's new doesn't mean you have to listen to it, the mainstream music being made today is trash but the music that's still around today isn't. Take pride in your taste and find things you can like without hearing it on the radio.
I know. I listen to a lot of great inde bands. I just think it's a shame that in general, only generic groups get attention nowadays (which certainly wasn't always the case). But oh well. That's life.
theres more out there then indie check out jam bands and reggae stuff go to your favorite band's msypace and check out their top friends usually if you like that band you will like their top friends
Yeah man, i hear you on that. I think its because the worlds so fucked up and how ppl think its okay to be gay or lesbo or w/e, its not! and musicians now days are making gay ass music. I'm seriously not trying to cause offense to anyone but really! i listen to anything except country, i cant stand that shit. but maybe you should experiment with other genre's of music. ever tried listening to Drum&Bass? or how bout Ambient music? the ambient is chill and good to get high to at night. go underground in your city, or something, i know in gboro NC there's alot of underground Jungle/drumNbass dj's and producers comin out with amazing music every week that will prolly never be heard but is simply amazing za zing. haha idk i guess its about what you listen to.
Yeah I know of a lot of great music, but what's dissapointing to me is that years later this era's going to be remebered for the stuff being played right now. But oh well if that's what people like, whatever.
