AddMeOnMYSPACE 2,021 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I was doing some research and I came upon this video: Warning: Its a long video Tackled topics in the video: -Repetitive lyrics -Max Martin and Dr. Luke creating generic pop -Music Industry creating artist, instead of finding them (I.E Katy Perry and Selena Gomez) -Lack of music instrument diversity Thoughts .

There's so many talented people making good music out there but instead they go with the same artists over and over again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan Is My Name 453 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 God that video was pure asinine. I learned nothing new except for "millennial whoop", everything else was recycled trash he could've compiled in 5 minutes or less. Awful awful video. Anyways, modern music is "terrible" because you're only listening to the radio crap. There's still plenty of good artists in this era, you just have to find them.

n0ne 13,105 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I find ton of great music in and out of Top 40/Mainstream music every year. "My people… need to let our bitchiness out. Otherwise, it turns to bile and poisons us" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
giskardsb 12,565 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 90% of pop music has been terrible since the 2000's. Lots of great stuff outside the mainstream tho. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gagarox 1,495 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Great stuff is being releases. U need to look outside of top 40. With spotify it isnt even tough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamelaisley 933 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 "How did we go from Led Zeppelin to Lady Gaga" huh? I haven't finished the video yet but I just found it interesting how she used to cover their songs and he's comparing them. the moon lights her way 🌖🦇 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yelir 573 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 My problem with modern top 40 music is that it's just not catchy. A song can be so auto tuned and over produced with a chorus that repeats the same line 4 times and be a huge hit... I don't get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
skaxboy 5,516 Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 There has always been trashy mainstream music (anyone remember "Who Let The Dogs Out"?) There are some great mainstream artists out right now and I sort of enjoy some of the top ten on iTunes, particularly Logic "1-800" and Demi "Sorry Not Sorry." I usually HATE songs on the radio. The beautiful thing about music today is that you can listen to independent artists instantly through streaming. 15 years ago, basically what was sold at Target and Wal Mart was the way ppl bought music. And huge CD music stores were always rather expensive even tho they offered different varieties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
