No, I’m not saying all modern music is awful, but majority of the music that gets trending is terrible. Yet another girl that twerks for 3 minutes with a trap beat or some crappy awful rap song. Or Ariana Grande talking about another break up in the most boring cliché way possible. I guess since music is easier than ever to produce, now any clown can call themselves an artist.
Just keep in mind… The trending music in past decades was MJ, Madonna, Cindy Lauper, Cher, many, MANY decent to great rock bands and ballads. And I’m not forgetting the rap, rnb and hip hop, 2pac, salt n Peppa, en vogue, NWA, Biggie… There’s an objective quality in these artist missing in majority of modern acts.
Hell, I would argue that decent artists from the 2010s like Taylor swift and Drake are getting lazy with their music as well, their songs being more focused on following those trending kids with awful music.
Everybody always says modern pop music is terrible, your suffering from recency bias. Take a look at top 40s from 20 years ago. You’ll probably see a bunch of songs you forgot about because they didn’t stand the test of time. Old music isn’t better, you just only still hear the good stuff.
False, I also check one hit wonders, the people could sing and perform. Nowadays, shit there’s compilations of artists being incapable of performing without the magic of auto tune and the music isn’t as elaborated
