What is viacom? I bet I sound really dumb nowBlazin' Squad. The single most awful band ever made. Taking a bunch of middle-class londoners, taking them down to the local JJB Sports and kitting them out in gear made by Malaysian kids earning 10p an hour, then giving them some ghetto inspired crap to "sing" along to and kaboom. Suddenly you've got tons of fans and millions of pounds. AND they're launched an attack on David Sneddon. The bloke who won Fame Academy. Why? Because he's actually got talent, writes his own music and plays piano. These people must be shot. Jennifer Lopez/J-Lo/Sir Jennifer Lopez/Jenny from the Block/whatever the fuck she's calling herself now. Middle-class diva pretending to be from the ghetto. Need I say more? Infact any middle-class people pretending to be from the ghetto get on my tit. I can live with Eminem just because he at least HAD a shitty upbringing to talk about. Lost Prophets, just because the third cousin of the lead singer made my life a living hell in school, so now I perform voodoo black magic on them in the hope they'll die. DIE! And I'll say Linkin Park just to piss everyone off aswell

Music or bands that are not forthcoming or honest in what they do annoy me the most. Eminem I like, mainly because he has no pretentions about what he does. He's successful so good luck to him. The aforementioned Blazin' Squad and Busted I cannot cope with.
Anyone that claims to be more important then they are, Girls Aloud, don't come around here with your bodyguards, it's only a matter of time before it's Checkout Girls Aloud - and their next single, "Would You Like Fries With That?"
Linkin Park I like, because I like the songs - which basically is what it should be about. Not about demographic, and not about marketing. Their preciousness over their songwriting wound me up a little, but I've covered that in the music thread.
Like Spicey says, they always find a way to delute the pool some more, so get used to it. You'll look back on this time as the Salad Days. Believe me.
Suddenly, Duran Duran don't look so bad now.

I gotta agree with you Archie2K, Jennifer Lopez is a joke. I can't stand those middle-of the road wannabes, that have to create some sort of ghetto identity to be marketable. Take a look at any recent female R and B singers, like say...well, any of them. They're all wannabes, and I just hope and pray that they all fade into obscurity, soon.
Oh, and as far as Prince goes, he scares me. He actually lives in the same city as me, well, pretty close, I just don't get that guy...

Mmm, R&B, I forgot about that.
If someone says R&B to me, I immediately think of Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf, etc, because that is the true definition of Rhythm & Blues, not Destiny's Child.

I don't like rap music, but what I really hate is bands that mix it with other music ie. Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Blue, and practically any r n' b artist in the charts. It just seems to me like a gimmick that artists use to say 'I'm making my music more diverse'. IMHO anyway.
Pop just keeps getting worse so I tend to ignore it now and don't let it get me down. As long as no-one screws with what I like, I'm happy.
(That being said, what's the deal with covering/butchering old songs at the moment? Supertramps 'Logical Song', ELO's 'Last Train To London', Sting's 'Shape of my Heart'...?)

Originally posted by Just Chris: I also hate Lou Bega, that lousy one-trick pony. Where is he, hiding out with Bin Laden? I think it's time to get over that now, it's like saying you hate Joe Dolce. I hate any and all rap, nu-metal, pop, anybody whining about how crap their life/girlfriend/pet is, male voice choirs and lots of other stuff. Plus almost all music videos today are predictable pap.

I think we all need to keep in mind is the fact that practically all music and music groups are just some puppet of some major label, no matter how "independent" they claim to be. It's a shame, too, because truly independent artists are the ones who we've all never heard of, relegated to the small clubs and bars, not the massive arenas and concert halls. It's all about money now, and artistic creativity be damned. That's why I have practically no respect for any group that doesn't write their own music, play their own instruments, etc. It's all karaoke, when you really look at it.
As far as Jennifer Lopez goes, again, don't get me started. She started off as a wholesome Latina oriented singer. But, I guess there's more money in faux-gangsta R n' B, so she went that route. It's pathetic, if you ask me, and even more pathetic that people are buying her crap. As long as their are suckers out there buying her music, she's going to keep shoveling it out.

Originally posted by sheep555: The Buggles were rubbish in a good way, Hell, the first 7inch single I ever bought was "Video Killed The Radio Star" by The Buggles (gives away my age somewhat). I hate anything they attempt to call music in disco's these days. Give me the 80's sounds any day. Plus any group that comes from a TV Show head start and not like most them, the hard way.

I 'm willing to bet that whovever produced Lou Bega songs is responsible for that "Chihuahua" song they play on the radio. I first heard it as part of a Coca Cola commercial.

I just can't get my head around how awful they are. Even going onto their fan sites message boards and ranting about how crap they are doesn't satisfy my cravings for Blazin' Squad blood. And they played down at the local Garage club. As far as I was aware their fans were all 14 year old girls (with no taste in blokes obviously) (well actually most 14 year olds have no taste in blokes anyway). And... for that alone you get my vote in May PotM. Remind me when the nominations come around...
