I confront my friend if they play popular music or enjoy a certain genre of music and explain why I think mine is superior to there's. We end up arguing but then most of my friend end up saying "well that is your opinion" and then try to agree to disagree. Here what my usual response is:
"Maybe it is my opinion but you haven't explained your point where as I have explained mine. Don't put your arguments on ice if you can't enter the heat of debate."
I don't hate mainstream music I just have a dislike to why someone would feel the need to write a piece of music that is so bland, boring and aimed at love sick 14 year old girls when most of the artists who write pop music are grown adults. Of course, this is stereotypical of me towards the genre of popular music and some adult woman will enjoy pop music.
If I'm in a club and a pop song comes I try my best to enjoy it. Even though I don't I try. Most of my friends know I hate the song so they usually start dancing in my face but meh. Everyone has their own music taste and aren't going to like what I like. However I will try to express my opinions and introduce humans to intelligent music.
Maybe I need to learn and understand that some people won't understand music that is "intelligent" or be able to get music that lyrically are constructed Metaphors, puns, imagery and euphemisms. Pop music is pop music and is probably needed for some people.
