The concept of genre exists too, I think it’s a bit of a disservice to talk about what’s “good” or not without the context of its genre

op i took the time to give u a thoughtful response, give me one in return

White artist have more hits than black artist right?
No real person with a brain will ever fix their lips and argue that white people have contributed better music to the world than black people..

How many people on ktt would know what pitchfork was without ktt/reddit/rapgenius?

'People like what they like and it angers me'

so you’re saying that everybody that listens to music has to know about p4k in order for it to be mainstream? what? p4k is a major force in pop culture that can make or break music careers. if that isn’t mainstream idk what to tell you.

LMFAO

His point is that a lot of people are sheep who idolize celebrities just because they're popular and it's the same with media

No ban yourself

it’s so counterproductive that black men will cape for white publications that give their artist a good score. house nigga mentality tbh.

My point is a lot of people are stupid and do view popularity as making someone more valuable

Is that a crazy observation? I’m not saying I personally feel like that

Im at work tryna respond and deliver a weekly report hold up

I would say I definitely like the vast majority of hit songs, yes. at least 80%.

I can't think of any number 1 song that I dislike though. not off the top of my head

I agree a song has to be easily listenable to be #1 but that doesn't mean much

Huh?

Haha casual

Ohhh okay,
my bad then v(=∩_∩=)ﾌ

you don’t see niggas d*** eating antony and pitchfork?

Yes

I’m saying that the context of this discussion is the idea that people who engage w a lot of music have a more valuable opinion than people who engage only w music they hear on the radio

The type of people who only listen to music on the radio do not know what pitchfork is
So in the context of the population themselves included pitchfork isn’t mainstream

If you read Pitchfork you’re MAYBE in at most the 5% of people who care most about music

lol..so who do you want them to kowtow to the white teens that consumer popular music...

stop it fam..

I know what you mean but was caught off guard

Maybe I gotta read the other pages

the best music isnt the most popular music..ask any artist what their best songs are..they always point to their less popular songs..

What does posting that achieve to you? what the f*** does the money it grosses has to do with quality?

Capitalist brainlet

Most hits are mid

But that’s because everyone likes mid
