Crap/pointless music, why?

[st3v3]

I just watched this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujcjLt6goWo&feature=plcp

Ed Sheeran is alright as musicians go, but Devlin, I see no point in him.
I also note in the clip how he constantly shakes his hands about in a gangsta fashion, what's the need? I'm hoping he's the only one or is there more of these spanners out there?

Most music is crap throw away shit now, the record companies love the new fad move onto the next one before they have to pay the last one any decent money type artists.

There's a still a good broad selection out there, well, suppose it depends on taste.

Another naff one is Tynchy Stryder. Who buys this shit?

About 80% of modern music is crap
personally I blame shows like Crap factor and Britain's got (No) Talent for most of it

music these days is based more on what you look like rather than your ability
then they hype up the crap to make money, taking away from real talent the chance to shine

Meh, music is music.

Whether its crap or not is down to peoples taste, you know there names...that is all they have set out to achieve...it appears they are successful

Music right now makes me think that music i thought wasn’t so good in the late 90’s early naughties was actually alright. Even the explosion of all the Indie music shortly after wasn’t so bad after all. Compared to right now, a lot of that was creative.

Rap is the one genre that really is sad today, the image and the clothes are paramount, the fake set up is really getting old now. All of the ‘rapper’s I hear on tracks where they feature over a chart track always have that same tone to them, “it’s all hard work”, “We gotta stay together” “Be strong, ignore the haters”, when you are a rapper with a 4-5 year life span, this is really awful. It’s now a really confused message...back in the 90’s when I was listening to Ice Cube, it was obvious what the message was. Fuck the police, and I don’t blame him. Not only that, beats were inventive and fresh, lyrics were paramount.

The yanks seem to have lost their way in the broad sense and it’s not only ‘rap’, using rehashed UK dub step is strange. When that sound was touching clubs here, being a keen follower of Drum & Bass, I was sat next to several lads testing it out in the studios, it was a producers dream. Technical beats that have to be carefully pieced together to ensure variation, whilst sat at a low BPM. It’s harder to produce than you think and uses techniques and software that were original. I’ve never been a fan to be honest and as the craze died out among friends, it suddenly took off in the US. Now you hear it over all sorts of media.

Most of todays music is pointless and crap. As a result I do not listen to current music. Chart stuff is depressing. It seems everyone is using computers and electro shit to enhance their voice or make some weird noises. Even the older "used to be good" bands like Linkin Park are at it these days with terrible albums being released.

Rock music, you remember that stuff, where people used real instruments, has once again been pushed out of the charts by these weird bands that rely on (c)rap and dance beats to make music.

As for dubstep.... I dont and hope never to understand how people can listen to that shite.

My favourite music will always be 90's trance. The good stuff was brilliantly composed and I consider it to be the spiritual successor to classical music.

Kids these days will never experience it. They're just spoon fed a constant diet of undanceable autotuned black shit.

Crap/pointless music - why?

Because there are crap/pointless people, who buy this shit.

Pretty sure my parents thought the trance/hard house I listened to was shit.

Pretty sure their parents thought The Who, The Beetles, David Bowie were shit.

I'd imagine that their parents thought Elvis, Nat King Cole, Hank Williams were "not good"

It follows a long line of "the kids of today listen to shit music, and equally we think the music are parents like is crap too. Tastes change though, 10 years ago if The Who came on the radio I would have switched it off, I'll happily sit and listen to a whole album now


Modern music doesn't interest me much, floppy haired indy bands, x-factor stars, manufactured boy/girl groups and all the rest of it but I wouldn't brand it "crap" just because it's not to my taste. Some of these people do very, very well - Leona Lewis for example. Hard to brand her music crap when she earns 200 times what I do a year from it.

Guess it's a thing of opinion / personallity

I'm listening to Devlin right now and have liked him for 3+ Years

oldpink, I agree.

But they were slated across most of the music industry when Satch tried to take them to court...was quite entertaining.

Sheeran needs a shave is all I can say.

It's entirely subjective. There are only really two types of music, music you like and music you don't.
