In my opinion modern pop music is shit, whether it be Lady Gaga, Rhianna, Justin Beaver, or anything else from that genre, and area. There words are empty and worthless, and unlike real music it has no true soul. Its designed to be easily sung and use as few large words so the morons who sing them can easily remember their words. My music has feelings and soul, it implores thought and wonder. These "musicians" have naught but looks (some of them only) or a strange condition (Bieber's inability to go through puberty or Lady Gaga's inability to comprehend how to look like a Human being while singing) and can't actually sing in any possible way.
Well as an American, I am often taken aback, by what my nation calls music, and culture in general.
Some ppl theorize that this new wave of "life less" and leisurely attitude and music came after 9/11 because of the desire to find something to alleviate the feeling of sadness.
Anyway what kind of music do you guys listen to?
