I like mainstream pop music and although my personal music collection isn't as big as Urban's or Loathesome's, I listen to a lot of different kinds of music too. Most of its weird or from a scene that happened before I was born.
Yeah, mainstream pop is kind of annoyingly all the same but so was the pop music of the 60s before the Beatles came along and I love that too (Shangri-Las, Zombies, Shelly Fabares). And a lot of good artists are struggling as well as a lot of genres but thats sort of always been the case. Screaming about how stupid the mainstream is and how much you dislike it isn't going to stop people too lazy or boring to check out other music from listening to it and its not going to stop people like me who actually like mainstream pop music as well as far lesser known music that you find acceptable from listening to it. Calling Ke$ha a whore (which she is, I guess, by the most commonly reguarded definition of it but hey, I am too. Mmm, cock.) and saying that you want to murder her or whatever shows me how you feel about women too. And it freaks me out...... |

Hey come on, take a ****ing a joke, you think if I actually had the chance to punch her in the face i'd do it... Of course not. I just say it to express my feeling of strong dislike towards her, and what I type is what goes through my mind, there is no double checking.

My point was that I'm sure you all have artists who may have released a single, and you ask yourself, "Why the hell did they release that particular song? Why didn't they release this song, or that song?" To me, that's the case with Ke$ha. I'm not fond of Tik-Tok or Take It Off, and wish she would have released, say, Hungover, or maybe the title track of her album, Animal. If I had completely written her off and ignored her at the initial release of Tik-Tok, I would have missed out on some of her other songs that I like. I guess I expected more of fellow music lovers, some of the previous comments remind me of pretentious people from my high school who are anti-anything remotely mainstream, even if they hadn't heard it. Why would you want to be like that? Why not listen to the stuff you like that's mainstream AND whatever indie/underground/obscure stuff you like. If it doesn't appeal to you, just say, "It doesn't really appeal to me." Simple as that. Also, is the generalizing against adolescents really necessary? You're being no better than morons who blindly worship the radio and shun anything obscure. Your stance is the complete opposite of theirs. If you think that you're somehow better than someone for boycotting the radio, I think you have some underlying confidence issues. Also, have you ever seen people that stop liking a band just because they went from being unknown to being popular? That's the vibe I'm getting from your posts, and I hope that I'm wrong.

Ke$ha happens to be the next Velvet Underground. You can get on the bandwagon late if ya want to.
