The Pop Reemergence of 2007
Does anyone else feel like the heavy hitters of Pop was trying to revive it this year back to it's previous form? Take a look at all of the Pop artists that released albums this year. Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Ricky Martin, Enrique Iglesias, Vanessa Carlton and coming soon Spice girls but that's probably going to be a best of with three new tracks. Also coming soon Michael Jackson's best of produced by all the heavy hitters and probably one or two new tracks.

I haven't given it any thought, but you've got a point. I doubt it can knock hip-hop off the top, though.
Regardless, I won't be listening. |

Pop is the default setting of the music industry.
When there's not much happening that's when pop gets it's biggest pushes.

actually hip hop is on the demise, i posted an article in the rap section about it awhile ago. urban is right though, although i personally feel (along with many people on this board i assume) there has actually been a really good amount of quality releases this year.

When I say not much happening I mean as far as movements go rather than individual good albums. You'll always have good music coming out , but from a mainstream point of view there's not really that much going on.

Michael Jackson has had a ridiculous number of "Best of" albums. This will be like the fifth. It is time to stop and just make a new album already.
As for Vanessa Karlton, I wouldn't put her in that group at all.

Pop is not really a genre I like or am knowledgeable about. To me it has always been at a constant and seemingly the most popular genre of music, but we all know different!

Why wouldn't Vanessa Carlton belong in that group? You don't think she's Pop? |

& i really have no idea why all these people are coming out with albums again when neither of them have had a hit in god knows when sad to say but i think britney spears would be the most likely to sell more albums more than half of those other people up there shouldve given up a long time ago
