Metalheads clumsy af
for me chart puts into perspective how mainstream music (kinda doesn't exist anymore tbh but when it did) could be a lot more diverse beyond just rap pop rock lol
it should have been young cool blues, jazz, electronic, gospel musicians on the same level as the names we all knew from rap rock and pop and music woulda been better off for it quality wise and ethos wise
I think a lot of the 'death' of these genres from a mainstream culture perspective is the spaces people are in growing up
most people don't care to learn instruments and music theory
or go to church
or have friends to consistently write, practice and record with
it's just a different era
