is music getting more shitty everyday or..
 

am i just gettin to old for it??

theres songs that repeat the same shitty chorus 50 times in row, songs that make no sense at all, the beats suck, im tired of listening to rap songs on the radio that sing about bitches & ho's and their rims spinnin...

it cant be me gettin old, im only 24 lol :Oh crap :helpme

PS why is "50 cent" in every song on the radio and in every video on mtv now??

I think we both are to old for it cuz I sure don't get some of it myself.


:(

uh oh :( :sadcrying

If it makes you feel better I'm waaaaaay older than you.


:upsidedow

really??? how old? :)

I fucking hate all the shit they call 'pop' music.

I just don't get how some black guy acting feminine or boppetty poppetting around while singing can be so popular.

15 year old white kids dig hardened ex criminals who've been shot 55 times in the head and walked away (slight exaggeration). Don't ask me what the fascination is, because I'm really not sure. Oh and ever since the "g-unit" thing came about, every kid on my street is now in some type of "unit". :(

Old enough to know not to tell!


:winkwink:

They still make great songs these days, but those songs just don't sell anymore....

oh god no.......the shitty music is now corupting kids too? this isnt good :Oh crap :( :sadcrying

oh, i know that age!! LOL :1orglaugh :winkwink:

no you are right still some good songs but other ones i cant stand either..

Smart one you are. LOL


:thumbsup

IT is amazing. I am a sound engineer in the real world and young bands I have worked with recently are not happy untill I mix their stuff to sound like a very shitty MP3. Oh. yeah. I am old too.

heres a few samples of shitty music:

"if i was a rich girl, na ana na na na naaaa na....i'd have all the money in the world if i was a wealthy girl"
"RIch Girl" by Gwen Stefani and Eve
(also #11 on Billboard Top 100 Singles)
er..ok :eek7

and lets not forget this chart topping hit:
"La la la la la lalalala la lalalalalala
Just got up in this party, tipsy off this Bacardi

okay...OKAY..okay..OKAY..okay..OKAY...okay..OKAY"

"Okay" by Nivea f/ Lil Jon & Youngbloodz

:disgust

I stick to Hardcore music !! :pimp

what are some of you fav's??
myself, im a big TOOL fan :thumbsup

you're getting old

i was afraid of that :Oh crap

I think you have to take the Rap music for what it is ... just entertainment ... i do see a lot of kids that grow up in the burbs wanting to act like they live in the hood and there poor ... not sure why ..every rapper is trying to get out of the hood ... I listen to Tool/RAGE/NIN all the good stuff ... but i also listen to 50/the game/eminem/snoop and Dre ... i think it helps if you you live in NY or LA and see the stuff that they sing about ... for me i had a mentality like that at one point in my life so i understand that feeling of if you want it take it and anyone that gets in your way hurt bad so the next guy just gives it to ya ... and it didn't get me to far ... but i understand the street thing and can enjoy what there doing .... it is creative ..not really in the same way music was 10 years ago ..but they can come up with some funny ways to say things ...

example:
ME: "I carry a gun" ...

Rapper:" I pack Heat Like an oven door" I think thats funny and enjoy it ..

example 2:

Me: "I'll shoot you in the head with my 9mm"

Rapper: "when the times right I'm put this 9 right to the left side ya head and push you mind right" see what i mean?

i think the problem is that you are listening to the radio, it sucks!

ya i know what you mean, and i like Dre and Snoop (their old stuff though).

but theres a BIG difference between lyrics like you just typed and lyrics like this:

"I'll take you to the candy shop. I'll let you lick the lollipop."

:upsidedow

Ya ..but you could spend all day pulling sexual suggestion from songs as far back as the 50's ... it may have been a Little less out there but the kids knew what it meant ... Elvis the Beatles ..they both sang about sex and drugs ... hell NIN is a great bad and he had a single I wanna to F*ck you like and animal ... that's even worse ..

i love sexual songs, dont get wrong LOL Hell, Lil Kim is one of my favorite rappers :winkwink: mostly cuz she talks about women doin the same shit as men (being a player, using men for sex, etc)

I just think that in the past year, shitty music has been accepted more and more....oh, and guess what..

BACKSTREET BOYS ARE COMING BACK........ :1orglaugh that right there should show you what direction todays music is going in lol

Belive me i'm younger than you and think about 80% of nowadays music isn't even good to when you need to shit...

good, its not just me lol :thumbsup

The really sad thing about that song is that I still think Topol did it much better.

Now how old does THAT make me sound?

ya ..i see what your saying for sure ... shit like the back street boys i really don't understand ... and even some of the down south crunk music throws me for a loop ... but i guess if i was from the south i would understand the appeal .. most of the time in these threads it just a bunch of old timers knocking the rap game as a whole .... but i see that in your case you understand the difference between what is done with a creative twist and what is just produced to sell records ...that's why have the time a second LP from just about anyone isn't as good as the first that got them famous .... The label pushes for the more commercial shit to feed on the name .... it sucks but it's just the way it is ...more kids have money and buy music ..so they'll sell them what they want ... :(

There is plenty of good new music, just do not expect to find it at Tower Records or other Media stores for the most part.

you just nailed my feelings and thoughts!!!!!!!!!! AMEN!!!!!!!! :thumbsup :2 cents: :thumbsup

Radio for the masses.

I think music is getting better.
