    my entire philosophy behind popular and unpopular music is too complicated to care about right now but i don’t think liking music solely based on its popularity or lack of such is respectable

    HOWEVER, there are correlations to each that affect objective quality of the music

    while brother @Brave is right, that doesn’t mean you can simply assume that popular music is also inherently superior, and could even be inferior because of inherent conditions and qualities between the two

    Of course that was just about audiences

    There's a lot of circumstances behind a song being big on the charts. Some of those circumstances oftentimes take away from a song's quality to appeal to lowest common denominator tastes

    I don’t listen to radio, or rap caviar or most the s*** most people f*** wit and I don’t watch reviewers videos

    I find music through word of mouth and just givin artists a chance I keep catchin wind of

    Sometimes some s*** will play in a lounge, in a lyft or on random while I’m playin Spotify that’ll make me check into their s***

    But there’s plenty of artists in the radio and poppin playlist I won’t even give half a chance til Im forced to.

    Same goes for artists nobody listens to that y’all gas to seem more informed on music than the average consumer and that’s equally corny to just being influenced by the gatekeepers and outlets

    Lmfao I can see your insecurity so clear. You spend multiple sentences explaining you don’t listen to anyone else to get recommended music, but then the forum hype artists are invalid cus “people don’t listen to them”

    Yeah people don’t listen to most music. An artist like King Krule no one I interact in my life knows who that is in real life. But he’s actually a pretty big name in indie music and I’ve been to his shows and they’re packed and high energy. So why do you place some arbitrary line? Good and interesting music will always have fans

    Why do y’all even care what people are listening to? I absolute despise something like 100 gecs and think it’s some complete meme bullshit but I also see some people really just like them. I have artists like that for me so why wouldn’t I just apply that logic to them.... Lol it’s almost like projecting that you can’t connect or understand certain music

    well yes that’s why u also can’t just make assumptions based off of existent correlations

    That's true. Obscure is relative. An artist might be very well known among followers of the scene even if most people outside of it don't know them.

    Did I say they’re invalid?

    I said lesser known artists aren’t good just because they’re indie and niche

    Chasin clout for bein up on some low key s*** is lame... same as likin some s*** just because they’re poppin

    Since I’m so clearly insecure what exactly am I insecure about?

    I dislike when people trash music other people f*** wit just to hype up artists that ain’t even that good because it’s counter culture

    Usually people who like underground and lesser known s*** are quite open about their dislike of everybody else’s taste

    Why does it bother you so much that I’m critical of them just as they are of others
