What do you think of 'todays' music?

Today's music is like this, because that's what it sells.
It has always been like this.
In every music generation, there is always some 'theme' that sells madami than the other ones and artists tend to explore it the best they can in order to make money.. or so I think.
We still have decent artists who play really good music that doesn't talk about sex or that has some rap in it, but the artist who make it aren't as known as the mainstream ones. Why? Because they know they don't need to do so, to make good music.
Same goes for auto-tune.

I've heard many people who lived in the 70's and 80's saying they didn't liked their generation's music, but to the most of us it's like the best music eras ever, because we do find some meaning in the lyrics, unlike now.
Who knows if from 20 years now, people won't turn around and say: "Oh, back in those days [2000's and up] they played decent music! Not this crap nowadays. The lyrics really had a true meaning." ?

I agree with you. Most of todays music uses a backtrack. No real talent in music anymore...



walang tiyak na layunin IMAGE!!!!!

The music we have today sucks so bad. I only listen to the oldies thats it. I pag-ibig the 50's 60's 70's and the 80's it rocks my world.
pag-ibig and peace

You'r right. I don't like songs with "I pag-ibig you" or "boy, you are my lucky star", they TOTALL SUCK! I don't like Rihanna, you sinabi true about her, but for the susunod time, try to not write discription with bad words, couse some kids are pagbaba this, like me. Sorry.

yeah good music is hard to find im madami in - punk rock bands like

owl city & paraluman

but there were so many great bands in the 90s

pag-ibig it!

iam 11 and i just listen michael jackson

I like about.. 1/200 songs... -_-

I think they overlook the real meaning of music...for the most part.
But people enjoy what they enjoy.
I enjoy the Yoshida Brothers.

The mainstream music is shit. It's all about money, and the only popular music is dancable music. It's all about sex and it's not concidered "good" unless it has rap in it. The melodies are catchy but copies of eachother and repetitive.
When you look past the mainstream crap and into some unknown artists, though, there is some good music that is completley original and very good. Not all artists in today's music are horrible, just the well-known ones.

I think most of it sucks. I mean I like Lady Gaga,Beyonce,and some others,but there aren't many new artists I like. Most of the music today is about having a good beat to dance to and not making sense. Those songs can also just be really catchy and annoying. It seems like anybody can have a record deal these days.XD

Depends.

I don't think it's all trash. There are a lot of good songs these days. Like Lady Gaga's Born This Way, P!nk's Fucking Perfect, ect.

There are some "artists" (aka Katy Perry, Nicki Minaj, ect.) who don't have any real talent & sing about stupid shit. But I just don't listen to those.

Overall, I disagree with you, we have great music today. I think there's a better veriaty today than there was back then. When my parents listen to the 80s radio station, all I seem to hear is the same thing over and over again. Very acoustic, irritating songs sa pamamagitan ng the Beatles, or whatever band was popular that year. Given, there was some good stuff. Like Miachel Jackson, I don't mind him. Ozzy was cool, too.

Anyways, I think today's music is good, you just have to pick the songs that are your type.

Well if you mean Miley , Justin Bieber and what artists are listned now...the only current artist I like is Jessie J..other than that no.
Old core Rihanna was great.

It's hard to say, since it's the same thing with pretty much everything. People say that the times used to be better, but who knows. We all have our own opinions. My opinion is that there used to be great bands like the Beatles and Queen, and they still beat most of the bands of nowadays when compared. I think that nowadays most of the music sounds pretty much the same but it's understandable. There are no madami new things to try :D

I totally agree with you.
There's stil some "good" artists, but most of them don't have idea of what music is.
What I hate about this songs is the lyrics. I mean, c'mon people! Are you even listening to the lyrics of the song? Most of them are pathetic

I hate mainstream music!

Most of it is crap, many artists today suck and don't know the meaning of real music, artists such as Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Pink, and don't even get me started on Justin Bieber, all fucking suck asno and bands such as Metallica, Five Finger Death Punch, and Slipknkot are the real thing.
Anyone who says there's a best artist in the world don't know a thing about music, if there's one thing I know about it it's the band that has the best songs, albums, and talent.

I think that Paramore is the best out there.

Most of today's music is generic, and manufactured. There are also WAY too many features and remixes being forced into the mainstream industry.

Sayin' that, today's music is actually really clever, the way '' the illuminati '' and such are being represented through social media and even basic lyrics without people realising is pretty amazing. Now i'm not going to name artists names who all this applies to, but if you're clever enough, you'll realise that when people sing about '' sex '' and such, it's not as plain as it seems.

I think some is alright but I'm resorting to Japaneese music.

a lot of the music of today is disney and nick stars they can't sing at all i pag-ibig 60's and 70's rock

I like some songs but I do prefer the old ones more.

i agree. her music used to be better. the industries dying, girl. i like older music way better.


....im actually listening to joan jett right now :) <3

To day's music haves gone down the hole. I mean when I was a kid I would pag-ibig to have this type of music going but now.....no. They don't no what there doing. To me music is my life and every thing more. Like when I hear my bro sing's it's not the type I like but I pag-ibig it. He's just like a artist in town. The artist to araw need to larne some thing like that.

(sry about my spelling)

It's all about the money, the sex image & the popularity now :(

sometimes i wonder what happened to to soul, the meaning, the passion, the talent and the MUSIC?

Like life, it changes

I have to agree. While some mainstream songs today are good, a lot of others suck.

Most of today's music is pointless. That's why 99% of the music I listen to now is Korean Pop music. I enjoy it a bunch madami than what we have now.

i hate the music now i still listen 2 old musuc and every1 from my school hates the old music and i get so pissed if only they knew how awsome old music is plus the old music has meaning 2 it the new music is mostly about inapropriet stuff theres only 1 other kid in my class that listens 2 the music i listen 2 so thats awsome

There still are some very talented artists out there - you just have to dig.
