And that's my point though. It wasn't like that before, not all the time anyways

Madonna is a real artist. That's the difference. Like a virgin, as provocative as it was, it was smart. The whole machine behind her was smart and even though provoking. Even his erotica days, as sexually as it was. I'm not against sex in music, but it needs a strong reason to be there.

Why not? That's a fact. Right now there's like 2 girls twerking on YouTube for a rap video, you would think they're the strippers for the video, no they're the artist, and the lyrics are wank. They almost make Nicki Minaj's "anaconda" passable... Almost

And they're stupid if they say that. I already explained why, popular trending music is objectively trash 9/10 of the time. Low effort, people can't sing or perform anymore, awful lyrics that seems it came from a kid rhymes book with swearing on top.

False. I want risk and evolution but not lack of effort and just clowns trying to become viral. Rihanna, for example, is one of the few modern artists that feels like a genuine REAL artist,I don't see compromises and see pure real talent.

Linkin park in 2010 had a very avant-garde album, again nothing old school but it's was real good music.

On the other hand, Greta van whatever did a mediocre Led Zeppelin wannabe album, old sound right, bait for old people. It was insincere.

I'm fucking old dude. I'm well aware enough of MJ "being an alien" "sleeping in a capsule" and Madonna "erotica". Since when I said kids can't listen their music? Or that they need to need off my lawn, metaphorically? I'm just saying popular music mostly sucks nowadays and I explained why

I don't have anything close to a family.... I don't see the relation anyways. Music currently is getting dumber and worse. I'm not offended, I'm not an old man saying that this music corrupts the young people, that is stupidity. But is definitely worse. Yeah it's catering kids... With worse music.

False, I also check one hit wonders, the people could sing and perform. Nowadays, shit there's compilations of artists being incapable of performing without the magic of auto tune and the music isn't as elaborated

You're missing my point. Back then I didn't needed to search beyond the popular acts to find great music.

If that's all you get, from this, you're missing my point

No, I'm not saying all modern music is awful, but majority of the music that gets trending is terrible. Yet another girl that twerks for 3 minutes with a trap beat or some crappy awful rap song. Or Ariana Grande talking about another break up in the most boring cliché way possible. I guess since music is easier than ever to produce, now any clown can call themselves an artist.

Just keep in mind... The trending music in past decades was MJ, Madonna, Cindy Lauper, Cher, many, MANY decent to great rock bands and ballads. And I'm not forgetting the rap, rnb and hip hop, 2pac, salt n Peppa, en vogue, NWA, Biggie... There's an objective quality in these artist missing in majority of modern acts.

Hell, I would argue that decent artists from the 2010s like Taylor swift and Drake are getting lazy with their music as well, their songs being more focused on following those trending kids with awful music.
