If it's impossible to consistently make good songs. Even an artist whom a person loves will at best make 20% of their songs worth listening to. In a 1 hour set, usually 1-2 songs are worth saving into the library. Anyone who says stuff like "I love this artist's album" is full of crap.

There is very little bad music in the world, only wrong ways to "music" to it. Some is meant to be listened to, some danced to, some bonded over to, some created and some thought about.

I like music with almost pornographic music videos that hit different on mute.

its all about the context of how you listen to it as much as the music itself, there is no bad art, just bad listeners.

The best AI music is better than most human music of the last few years.

Being a metalhead, most of my opinions about music are unpopular I guess. Or are they?

Really? I'm glad someone shares it, but I'm not sure how many of us there are given how often I happen to hear their songs around.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Played often on radio is not a measure of people living or hating it, just that it's generally unobjectionable and ok. Aside from people who hate that measure of 'popularity'in the first place there will be more people who have rains to hate that artist as it's ubiquitous.

If you hate it you will hate it a lot as you get constantly recorded to it without asking for it.

Most rap sucks and it's effects on mainstream media have had detrimental effects on society as a whole.

It literally just glorifies the ghetto lifestyle of being a piece of shit and acting like it's the only way you can live life.

I get this is an unpopular opinion but 99% of the time I hear this take its just barely masked racism.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Yup. Unpopular opinion indeed. Upvoted.

Some things that are apparently classics that generally, outside a handful of titles for some of those, bore me to death: Red Hot Chili Pepper, Tool, Radiohead, Metallica…
