Why are the popular songs so similar and boring? How come pop songs you've heard a few years ago never come into the radio again, but songs that have been made hundreds of years ago are still very widely known? Where's the talent gone in the art of music?
Edit: I'm not saying that all of today's music is bad, just most that consist in the pop genre aren't as good as they should be compared to how it was, say 30-50 years ago

It’s very simple. All the good music from 50 years ago is remembered today, whereas the shit was forgotten. But all the shit from today is still around so when we compare it with the past music we think there’s a disparity, but in actuality there isn’t.

RWBY has awesome music. Here is a memorable track from Vol. 1 that will also appear in the upcoming fighting game, BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle.

5 RepliesEdited by Mad Max: 12/4/2017 8:52:31 PMHow, in this day and age, are people still complaining about no good music? We live in a time where it has never been easier and cheaper to record, produce, and distribute your own music. There's TONS of great artists out there. Just because you aren't trying to find them doesn't mean they don't exist. Turn off the Top 40 radio and hunt down some Spotify playlists.

Edited by Kaishi Ritsu: 12/6/2017 7:42:48 PMJake Paul and “Gucci gang” and post Malone happened Team 10 aka Team ten year olds who say who the flip are you in a song think they’re hot shiz cause who the shiz are you. “Gucci Gang” bunch of drug munching twenty year olds who want to be America’s next Justin Bieber Post Malone Do I even need to say anything Dude is trash He looks like the type of man a father of a lovely daughter would shoot just for asking to see her. He’s just like “GG” except he has some creativity and some swagger. Again 3 of the most loved artists(music groups) yet 3 of the most special ed choir boys who need to learn drugs are bad mkay Ps my favorite song is actually a cover of smells like teen spirit The cover is by think up anger you’ll love it that is some hella good jamming

"Good" is subjective. Music evolved, your tastes didn't.

Edited by Bieltan: 12/6/2017 12:07:00 AMIts a measure of the general decline of intelligence. People are just more sheep-like nowadays. The fact that the Popstar Manufacturing Line has been tarted up and rubbed in peoples faces and still been a resounding success speaks volumes. You arent necessarily unintelligent for liking Pop Music, but its disposable nature and increasing lack of front-stage talent still receiving rapturous plaudits from many is depressing. Its not hard to pick a smart pop fan from the problematic sheep.

There's always gonna be shitty music and dumb people who like it. See, most people [i]are[/i] dumb, so you get all the shitty music being bumped up on whatever lists. It's like fast food. It really isn't [i]actually[/i] good, but people like it nonetheless. Not every musician can be Elton John. Not every chef can be Jiro. Not every architect can be Wright. You get a lot of Rihanna's and Paul Dean's and Gehry's because people have a hard time distinguishing actual talent.

Or maybe you aren't trying to find music you like. Take it off of the top 40 and find stuff you like.

Your post title and body edit are quite dissimilar. Consider revising your header to ‘I’m an idiot and just like to complain’.

Edited by WeeBitRusty: 12/4/2017 10:10:17 PMI think some Rock bands are alright. Like Avenged Sevenfold, FFDP, and even Shinedown if I'm in the mood for it. I like my late 90's and early 2000's rock as well. I dislike when rock bands turn poppy to appeal to a bigger crowd tho, an example of this would be like Linkin Park. It literally killed them IMO.
