BallsDeep
10.01.16 | nah but fr key its clear i don't have an affinity for most pop music, but wouldn't you at least agree that - more so than other genres - pop music is more concerned with commerce (and relevance) then artistic integrity. Its a broad generalization sure but its a view I've held for as long as I can remember. |
DoofusWainwright
10.01.16 | Not the type of example you're looking for but I caught a bit of the UK X Factor last weekend and there was a point a competitor sang in her native language (something Scandinavian maybe?) and all the audience booed. Made me chuckle. |
Archelirion
10.01.16 | With all due respect to the lovely audience though, most of them have only just managed to grasp basic English so they probably thought she was showing off. |
Keyblade
10.01.16 | nah not really, pop music is extremely broad and isnt just what u see in the mainstream. even so, it's no different than any other genre in that regard
like, mainstream pop and mainstream metal for example are no different in their pursuit of commerce and relevance on average
the main issue is, who even cares about artistic integrity...whatever that is. that doesnt make a genre inherently better or worse. all that matters is if it sounds better or worse to ur ears |

10.01.16 | for me there's definitely a divide in quality/value between music of some artistic breadth and music recorded/performed purely for the goal of base entertainment – but i assume most people don't listen to stravinsky for the same reasons that they listen to beyoncé and i really think that's completely cool and fine. it's all about making yourself happy |

I hope you don't legitimately believe this.
"no, but that's simply because it sounds bad which is an opinion."
Music is not the only aspect though, take about into literally everything for said genre. The culture surrounding it, lyrics, production etc. In practically any genre I have people who gave me logical and personal reasoning to why they like and I'm cool with that, Crunkcore is the only one off the top of my head I haven't met anyone who has done this or can see why anyone can enjoy it despite enjoy it myself. I find, literally every facet about it abhorrent and if anyone can tell me why they like it then I'll concede my point. |

ScuroFantasma
