I used to be inspired by music, but now I feel like so much music just agresses me. I remember there was good songs in so many different styles, from dance to rap, to rock, to pop.
We always bashed new songs, and new artists in the past, but music has always had a certain standard of quality. How do you guys feel about it, personally, being music makers and lovers.ĭid pop music went too far in degradation? It sounds like a cheap ripoff of Blink 182 with AutoTune. It's so wrong I don't even know what to say. I mean, wtf? I can't even understand a word of what Lil' Wayne says. I'm trying to respect other artists' work because we all like different stuff. Retrieved September 10, 2011.It's very rare that I "hate" as I think it's pretty much a waste of time, and when I see and/or hear something I don't feel, which happens a lot since the last couple of years, I just keep it to myself and move on.
