it is so weird to me that all the shitty top 40 music is not only popular but critically acclaimed
there are a bunch of guys outside listening to some song that’s like “if you’re sexy and you know it put your hands up in the air” and i was thinking god this song is SO DUMB and SO DERIVATIVE and SO ANNOYING and i looked up those lyrics and saw that it was “turn up the music” by chris brown (feat. rihanna for some fucking reason) and i looked at the wikipedia article and scrolled down to critical reception and it said things like
“Brown revisits an electronic-dance sound that is destined to get people in the clubs and on the dance floor.” / ”sounds like an absolute smash to us” / ”will undeniably move partygoers to showcase their best moves.” / ”With its mercilessly pounding jungle beats and super-sick synth, ‘Turn Up The Music’ deserves to be played at maximum decibels.” / ”epic dance-pop track” / ”Brown is clearly aiming for #1”
and that’s SO WEIRD TO ME it seems like all that any top 40 musician is aiming to do these days (and i know i’ve made a post about this before) is make songs that people can dance to
and i mean that’s fine i guess as a goal for writing a song, if that’s your goal when you write music then that’s fine but jesus christ it’s just annoying to me that the music scene that seems to be the absolute least ambitious of any in the world is also the most popular and most successful
i guess it makes sense because it’s the most easily digestible music there is? i’ve never heard a top 40 song that takes multiple listens to get it and then it clicks and you’re like “oh hey this is great” it’s just like okay here’s the song
anyway let’s wrap this post up
chris brown is a piece of shit

eurovision, you try valiantly every year, but just remember NO ONE will ever be able to beat Ukraine’s 2007 entry
