Has music become stagnant (stopped moving/evolving)?

I might not be that smart but I still proved you wrong.

It's usually the case that people tend to have rigid ideas and or stuck in some past generation style to progress taste themselves.

Look dude, I'm as open-minded as it gets. But with this topic, its kind of black or white. There's nothing rigid about my thinking. Although, I can tend to be picky sometimes. I have my own style as everyone else does. I have certain preferences. I don't see anything wrong with that. There are styles of music I just flat out don't like. I'll be honest. It doesn't mean I'm rigid. Just the fact that I'm looking for new innovative sounds and approaches suggests that I'm not rigid, but open-minded.

I didn't say you were not smart. I said you were not THAT smart (as smart as your trying to sound). And you didn't prove me wrong. How could you? I didn't pose an argument in the first place. If anything I proved YOU wrong. You can't really deny what I just said.

Go out and ask 10 random people if tey know EVH. at least 8 of 10 will say yes. Then go ask 10 random people the same question about Dizee Rascal and about 1 of 10 may possibly know him. True innovators don't usually go unheard of. They are usually houshold.

Get on your lithium and then we can have a reasonable discussion.

I just gave you a recent example of a multi platinum selling artist that launched a new genre of music.

Now if you were serious about genuinely finding new music you could have said 'Thanks for the tip, I might check him out'
But instead you decided to dismiss it out of hand and ramble on about how he's not a household name wherever you are so therefore his acheivements are meaningless and you then went on to bitch about people on the internet.

So please tell me how I'm supposed to take your reply seriously.
