| Topic | When did popular music actually begin to suck? |
| Slip-N-Slide 04/16/18 8:03:10 AM #27: | There's always been mostly shit, but there used to be more good as well so if you strip away all the shit there was a lot of good to look back on, but the majority was always shit and always will be shit. There's statistical data that shows that popular music is getting gradually more dumbed down in terms of complexity and writing variety, vocabulary, etc. But a song doesn't necessarily need to be either of those things to be good, not inherently. And with music being so subjective, it's really hard to say anything here. Go back and look at a bunch of shitty 2000's pop songs on YouTube and you'll see comments everywhere like "this was when pop was still good" "they don't make music like this anymore" "I miss songs like this" etc. And a dominantly positive like/dislike ratio. In a decade from now a bunch of people will find a bunch of shitty mumble rap today to be this great era of music for them and you'll see those same types of comments. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
