Rock
Hip-Hop
Pop
Country

The lyrics are always the same story about a relationship or drinking. The singers typically sound a like because of the tone and accent required to sing that way. Then the instruments all seem to sound the same. Granted that's the "country" style, but it's such a limited and boring genre.

Country music is all about the sound. It's that same sound over and over again.

The oldie had a different sound that gradually changed to what we have today sadly. I approve of Johnny Cash too.

All of those genres tend to sound the same and are comprised of largely the same content if you're going by what's considered mainstream at any given time.

I really fucking hate country music though. Instrumentally some of it isn't so bad, some decent guitar playing at times. I can just never get past the whiny ass vocals that are hallmark in the genre.

Hey I'm not a fan of that genre either, but I admit making money and fucking bitches is pretty relatable lol. Only points I give to that genre though is they can have a more versatile sound at times.

Hip-hop can burn.
I'm no fan of country either mind you. But at least country you can laugh at since every song is about one or more of the following, ahem. My truck, dog, woman, guitar, bro, beer, farm, driving, America, jeans, boots and dad.

Hip-hop is nothing but dopes singing about how gangster they think they are all set to thumps and whistles.

It's not all about that. That's a specific section of mainstream hip hop.

Rap is worse. Hip hop is generally worse. And pop can be too, but sometimes it's surprisingly good whereas country never is.

Kind of a bad era for music right now honestly. Old music is better.

Most mainstream modern country songs' lyrics sound like they were written by a committee of writers who just made a list of what southern people like or do and wrote songs about them.

Then there's the music itself, which sounds sterile and cliche with a pop style production. You'll hear country songs with rap-like beats in them. There's nothing wrong with crossing genres, but not when it sounds like it was created in a lab by hacks and record company executives..

Stadium country music like Kenny Chesney and Jason Aldean are garbage, but there are artists in every genre that appeal to the lowest common denominator to make a buck. It's called selling out

Lesser known artists like Jason Isbell are legitimately good

Rap is definitely the worst, and popularity does not mean validity. Most people have shit taste in most things. Taste is actually rare, not the normal state.

Rap and country have pretty equally vapid subject matter but rap is so barebones it makes you question if you're listening to music or just some dude talking to you.

But really anything you hear on the radio in recent years (any genre) is pure trash. It's all soulless cash grabbing that follows whatever formulas the algorithms told the executives make the most money.

I don't see why you'd agree with such a dumb knee jerk comment. Musical styles are studied and categorized, mostly based on the content of the music and common formulas in the music, not stereotypes. In fact "noise" is categorized versus music.

It makes me wonder how much effort people put into searching for stuff they like in the genre, if any. I like most things and have never found it difficult to find at least one thing I like in any given genre.

Most modern country sounds the same yeah and is repetitive.

If you listen to a lot of older, outlaw country then you start to notice that many artists had their own distinct sound.

Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Charlie Pride, Conway Twitty and George Jones are easily distinguishable. So is Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard. It also helped that their music had heart and soul, and was really good.
