Pop music seems to cover every style of shallow genericism from slow and sultry love songs to upbeat dance tracks. Everybody knows what pop music sounds like, but why is it such a nebulous, catch-all genre? Best I can tell, half of it is Nu Disco (like Michael Jackson), and the other half is "Singer-Songwriter" (Taylor Swift and tha Sappy Bunch), which is the most bullshit genre name in all existence, as that would make classic rock, p4k-core and folk music all fall under "Singer-Songwriter".
Who the fuck let a genre be so devoid of subgenre categories to help you weed out the BS music you don't want in the first place?

Everything that's not classical or traditional folk is popular music.

You bet he is, everyone hates on him just to follow the herd. It takes a true patrician to see past the sheeple and enjoy the beautiful rhythmic motion of his sonic landscapes.

The best Pixies album is considered to be doolitle, while Tromp le monde is still really good as well.
In fact, their first four are all really good, but then they kind of dropped off in their most recent two
>>
Doolittle>surfer>trompe= pilgrim>bossanova
Imo. Bossanova is still good though.
>>
You should try Doolittle or Bossanova first, imo

From Scarface, Rakim, Kool G, Big L, Nas and so many others. Who's the greatest?
In my opinion it's Nas

My friend just started a band (they are not good and prob never will be). Anyways, he said he is stuck between naming the group Monkey See, Monkey Do and Pill Washer.
I feel very strongly that Monkey see, Monkey do is lame and gay. Pill Washer is better in every way.
so /mu/ Pill Washer or Monkey See, Monkey Do?

If you're using The Stooges' self-titled as an example you're wrong. We Will Fall is actually one of the best on it.

And no, I'm not talking about this new utter shit that's Top 40 sung with an accent. I mean actual, real Country like George Jones, Randy Travis, Charlie Pride, Waylon Jennings, David Allan Coe, Hank Williams and Bocephus, Marty Robbins, Alabama, The Judds, Vern Gosdin, etc.
The stuff is actually quite good.

Little big town - better man

There is really good stuff in country now a days.
