Pop music is actually a genre with its own signature sounds. This is somehow a hot take amongst people online who know music yet the average music listener has the common sense to know it to be true. I don’t quite understand it myself
poptimism is good and based
I agree, pop music is probably by-and-large my favourite genre, but poptimism in music criticism and stan culture have gone too far, we're now at a stage where critics know that a 3/10 review of a Taylor Swift album will lead to their home address being leaked, and it creates a terrible climate for criticism
madonna was never that good.
That Hard Candy album is hard but she might be getting carried a lil by the production

the last part is so f***ing true and really sad tbh. Can't even criticize a popular album without getting harassed
Beyoncé > MJ
this isn't a spicy fact, this is just a very very dumb opinion.
I like the trend of pop songs not having bridges anymore. It’s not that I don’t appreciate a good bridge, it’s just that the verse chorus verse bridge chorus structure is so predictable that I know exactly what I’m in for. Brevity is a good thing in that case.

Pink’s music is horrible and annoying to listen to.
