Even if you wrote it just for your media work it's still a pointless exercise. There's tons of rants like this across blogs and forums every month and they all seem to have rose-tinted, ill-informed viewpoint. Yes there's plenty of rubbish in the charts today. I can clearly remember plenty of rubbish in the charts in the 90's and I'm sure there was plenty of rubbish in the charts in the 60's and 70's as well. Over time all the rubbish usually gets forgotten about and filtered out, and all the good stuff is what music fans will remember from a certain era. As I said it's nothing new and writing articles complaining about it is nothing new either.

Pop music back in the 70's and 80's was about dance, and a funky beat and rhythm. Today, all pop music is repeating the same thing over and over and it's boring and I am questioning today's society of how people can like this utter crap.

![]() The other thing that's nothing new would be music/artists that have big hits on top 40 radio that will not be popular AT ALL in a few short years. Look at the top 40 charts from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's 00's, you'll see a litany of "where are they now" and "who the hell were they even then' acts. These things have a way of sorting themselves out. |

I thought Jacko contribution to pop music was to spurn record executive to look for the next pop sensation like Katy Perry and Rihanna. If early Rock n Roll artist like Chuck Berry herald the age where an person could write and perform his own material and play actually an instrument, Jacko herald the age where songwriters, producers and record exec controlled what you heard, and the singing was only their prop on stage back by studio musicians.

Also back in the 80's you had the Stock Aitken Waterman production team churning out disposable pop artists like a factory production line. Even though I only saw the 80's through the eyes of a toddler and was too young to experience it first hand, plenty of older music fans have told me that the quality of 80's chart music was no different to what it is now. Even if there is a difference, blame the record company executives. Not music fans or the artists. Quote:

personally, i really enjoy alot of old classic's stuff. we're living in a generation where twerking is the new music. oh my dear, what has this world becoming? i'm sticking to my oldies. i hate the music of today's era. it's annoying and abnoxious and awful. i'm a very picky/selective fan girl of what's good in the hood.
