Why is pop music so bad?

So call me maybe!

i like plenty of pop music. You cant say Elvis ripped off black people because you might as well throw in bill haley and dozens of other artists as well. Little Richard was pop music too you cannot deny that. What you should do is not b i t c h about the bad music and listen to music that you like. I mean Peter Gabriel was popular, but he also pushed musical boundaries just like David Bowie, Pink Floyd and the like. Dark Side of the Moon stayed on the Billboard charts longer than any other album in history. That is a pop chart. So yes it was "better" you could say, but it has never been perfect. I'm not saying i listen to Rihanna or Nicki Minaj and the like, but I am saying that there is always going to be pop stars and they come in different forms.

The first 4 answers made me lulz.

But seriously, the lyrics are generic crap. I'm pretty sure other people write it for the "singers", and the ones who actually try to write their own stuff don't actually put in real effort to write good stuff. Simply the fact that it's "catchy" doesn't even count as decent music.

There is just right and dangerous in every type of tune and not everybody likes the same thing (although tons of children like particularly dangerous pop!) but take just a few examples of excellent current pop, e.G. Mika, Scissor Sisters, The Hoosiers

they stopped learning how to actually play there music instruments there voices are all sugar coated with cheesey harmonics,the lyrics suck its just a rehash of a rehash of something stupid to begin with,they need to dig deep from our vast music vault if you will and try to come up with something origional with real singing origional lyric and musical instruments then maybe just maybe theyll be redeemed as musical talent,no more justin beiber,or cheesey african american mutated singing sucks spare the airwaves folks

It used to be called bubble gum music, disco took a dive etc. It is a good thing we have so much to chose from so find a different genre for a while. Good luck.

It's not. Just most of it (but not all of it)

But here's my number

Because Rammstein make them look so poor quality music

And this is crazy
