Poll: Music that needs to Die
- Thread starter DreamerM
- Start date
Rap/hip hop is a big one.
The mainstream industry for the most part is way down in the tubes. Most of the idiots in it for the money like T-pain, Lil John, Kanye, Flo Rida, etc should all die in a hell storm fire.
I only like a select few and eminem is one of them. Some of his music is rather crude but the guy speaks what he thinks and doesn't really sell himself out and I can respect that.
Country is so bad its almost not worth mentioning it.
The mainstream pop can easily relate to the mainstream hip hop, in fact they overlap a lot.
Now before being called a hipster, I am mostly a fan of house electro and alternative rock. I went to a Deadmau5 rave this week and it was awesome. He is up there for my favorite DJ's. I also enjoy A Trak a lot. I envy you Canadians and your good DJ's.

Yeah, like syphilis... Wouldn't want to deprive anyone of that just because I don't want it.Swollen Goat said:
I had fun going through this thread reporting half the posts.
None of this needs to die. I don't like them, but that doesn't mean they're without merit.

Pretty much all of them. But mostly R'n'B and all the crappy music it spawns. I remember when being a musician meant you could play and instrument and/or sing. Actually...no I can't.
I think the world would still Spin without Pop. I mean, nowadays, its rather lame. It used to be pop rock, but then pussyfied itself. sure, there was good pop and sometimes there still is. And its alot about mood really when you listen to it.
But it just bugs me that these disney stars and Justin Beiber types are getting all this recognition in the world when good bands go un noticed because they're flavor of the month. That, and that everyone acts all shocked when these teen sensations do something wrong (miley cyrus and all her stuff, Justin punching a kid out for callling him gay, katy perry not able to be on sesame street becuase appearantly in this day and age kids who watch sesame street have never seen cleavage before). They;re growing up, of course they're going to do this crap. You odnt need to make a story about it. I mean yeah, the concern is that they'll turn girls in to whores, but thats a small part of culture that does that for girls nowadays.
This was all spoken from the perspective of a guy, so maybe I need two X chromosomes instead of one and a Y to get it.

Very well:Cowabungaa said:
Minimalism:It's only okay as background music, which is not the intention of this piece.
Neoclassical:Now this was originally background music, but it's so awesome that it can take center stage.
No, just the ones who were posting short, insulting and clearly inflammatory comments. Obviously half is a hyperbole, but there was definitely plenty in here that's against the forums rules.Nazulu said:

I'm talking about this sort of wrestling: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTJdDEVbQBESadakoMoose said:
Not sure if you knew that or not, but as for real wrestling (like high school sport type), well... I don't really care about it or any other sports (minus X-Games), but nothing against it.
Yes, I was well aware of that.Assassin Xaero said:
