I could explain why I hate pop music like this, but it's not worth it.

I just don't want to type a bunch of paragraphs.
Here's an excerpt:

The way the production sounds
auto-tune
image over music
electronic nonsense

It wasn't even that great when she came out in the early 80's as Madonna.




1. Madonna didn't go electro until 2000

2. Into The Groove was her first good song



most people on here generalize EVERY fucking genre. they go to an artist see its collective rating and rate with the masses. titan is right had people actually listened to this before reading chans review it would not be 2.3.




Preach.



I mean, even for pop music, this album is incredibly complex. I mean, just listen to Hair and Judas.



Actually reading review, this album has been critically acclaimed. It's just music database sites like Sputnik and RYM that have shat all over it JUST because it's a "pop album", and of course, ALL POP MUSIC IS BAD.

auto-tune

image over music

electronic nonsense




If you are honestly saying that image doesn't matter to music, you're a fucking idiot. The best

music artists should be treated as package, of which the actual music is just a part of. Do you

really think, for example, that David Bowie would be regarded as one of the most important artists

if he didn't break apart the expectations of a rock star with his appearance in the Ziggy Stardust

era? Or if Morrissey didn't act like... well, how Morrissey acted?



Image is important to artists as the music itself. Fact.



Also, why does auto-tune automatically equate to bad music? 808s & Heartbreak wouldn't be anywhere

near as great as it was if it was done without autotune.



It's boring and it sounds like every other piece of bubble gum pop. It also doesn't help that

the fake-ness of the industry bleeds out in it's music.

This album gets so much hate not because it's pop music specifically, but due to the fact that Gaga has become so popular recently that she got really easy to hate in some circles.

For the most part, it's the production and the lyrics that bother me.

The production is actually really good on this one. Lyrics of course were supposed to be cheesy. It's true they irk me at times, but sometimes they're guilty pleasure type of fun. It's a pop album for god's sake.

You have to admit that, as the review said, that Judas is quite ambitious lyrically for a pop song



But then again, I'm bypassing the fact you're not really meant to pay too much attention to lyrics on pop albums

I enjoyed The Fame Monster a good deal, this just honestly bored the shit out of me. There were a few tracks I enjoyed, but overall I never had the feeling of wanting to hear any of them again
