KyliesChild 16,907 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 When we think of music from the past generations, it's likely that you'd be flummoxed by the quality sonically that seems as if it's dwindling. As many people stated music has been made just for commercial success however pop music has always been that way. We fail to realize the numerous artists with similar tactics used by the likes of The Chainsmokers, Daya, Zedd, and Drake. However I do believe that a reason why the quality of music is so abysmal is because artists are having less ideas to write about. Song lyrics are also getting progressively dumber as well, unfortunately. In order to stop this from occurring we'll just have to not consume songs that are made for commercial success and respect and support artists with actual artistic integrity.

They're making great music that doesn't have to fit into the strict confines of what's "mainstream", and that's more my speed. Sure, I'd love my favorites to have success, but simply being on the charts =/= success.

Guest Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 What happens in my opinion is that genres are slowly disappearing. Rock, pop, r&b, rap, they will all blend together to make one type of music, a theory but we're seeing some evidence, especially with rap, the "trendy" rap music has some pop in it, some singing, the lyrics mean nothing. Real rock is barely relevant anymore as r&b and dance music blended together is the trend now, pop has trouble standing out cause the current r&b is close to being pop. As a result, everything sounds the same Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's rather ineffective, isn't it? If you're the type of fan who cares about the charts, then her collabing with those sorts of 'artists' is the best way for her to get back up there (not that I'm even a fan of either artist, or the current pop sound). Or if she churned out more songs like The Cure. I love Joanne and believe it was massively underrated, but I'd love to hear her voice all over the radio again, simply because it's dominated by all trashy divas atm and Ed Sheeran- I need Gaga to make the radio bearable to listen to.

Streaming overtook the charts. People can stream a certain song a billion times and that way also influence the charts a billion times. Back then, sales were way more important , so one person could affect the charts only once. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
