Default (OT) American music has become total trash

Why is it that all the good music these says is coming from foreign
countries? England, Ireland, and others. They have talented musicians
that actually sing. All that is coming from America is this disgusting
Rap garbage, which is nothing but some electronic machine making the
background, and some black idiot talking, and using some very filthy
vocabulary.

If music has anything to say about our culture, then America is in much
worse shape than most people realize.

Personally I'm rather old and still prefer the oldies from the 50s thru
the 80s, but when I'm in public I hear what is playing on the juke boxes
and modern radio stations, and all the stuff I like, is all from foreign
countries, while the stuff that I find to be the most repulsive is
American.

I'm not a racist by color, but I think American blacks have completely
ruined music.

You may not be a racist, but yer certainly a moron.

There is still plenty of great non-rap American music being created in
the US. We only get only four stations, here in my rural CO Rockies.
One C&W (I'm not a fan), one classic R&R (yawn), one hippie (snore),
and one contemporary music, of which there is a lot of good ol' white
teenie-bop, pre-teen pop, and young adult angst music. This last
station has a pretty decent selection of music from both black female
singers to white popular (Don't let 'em kid you, taylor swift sings
pre-teen pop!) singers/bands. I recall one particularly bouncy ditty
by a Rachel Platten, whom I'd never heard of, called 1000 Ships. Very
catchy, very bubbly, and almost painfully white! I don't make a
steady diet of it, it being a bit too teen-pop'ish, but it certainly
ain't rap and I listen jes to see what new stuff in on the horizon.

I suspect a lot of the problem is where one lives. In this fairly
remote mountain Valley, we probably have half doz black ppl, so
there's not a big demographic fer rap. But, that's beside the point.
The point is, there is plenty of non-rap music out there. Also, some
of the best foreign/world beat music is from Africa. So, if you don't
like what yer hearing, either move or change the damn station!

BTW, with the exception of C&W, blacks pretty much invented American
Music.

When Robert Plant, yes THAT Robert Plant, wanted to explore and make an
album of Celtic/Galleic music, he had to come to Appalachia to get the
truest form of the Irish sound.

You see the Celtic sound has disappeared from Ireland almost altogether
yet it preserved in America particularly in the Appalachian states.

The OP must only listen to Top 40 or Billboard pop music, because
America being a very large and diverse nation has many diverse forms of
music, most of which are alive and well.

Of course this doesn't matter to you because you are just throwing out a
racist barb for the sake of being a racist. And most of your 1950's to
1980's music is most likely influence by Black creativity and sound,
developed in black communities...

Hell, some of my ancestors were the first slaves in America long before
expensive African slaves were imported and my people have never demanded
to be a protected species. I do believe that children in government
schools are being indoctrinated that Negro culture is good and Caucasian
culture is evil. Of course now it's turning into a love fest with Muslim
culture where we must accommodate and accept all things Islamic. America
is a melting pot and we should be stronger when we meld the cultures of
all our citizens into one American culture but unfortunately, there are
those who wish to make the culture of one group, no mater which,
superior to the others instead of accepting all of them within civilized
limits. Like the American English language
which incorporates parts of the ancestral languages of all Americans,
our music does the same thing and I believe it's better because of it.
The problem comes in when children are indoctrinated to believe one
culture's music is superior to another and that's why parents should be
involved and concerned about what their children are exposed to in the
government schools. When I was a kid I believed all adults were full of
crap, the mistake I made was letting the nuns know it. ^_^

If you're that limited, get an Internet radio and choose the music you want
from thousands of stations. Our "old" house is in E. Alabama, just far enough
from big cities to have a dearth of local stations but too far to receive from
the big cities reliably. Internet radio is great; replaced my XM. The new
place is in the outer Atlanta 'burbs but Internet radio still better than I
can get OTA.

I suspect a lot of the problem is where one lives. In this fairly
remote mountain Valley, we probably have half doz black ppl, so
there's not a big demographic fer rap. But, that's beside the point.

Right, but unless you have to go satellite for high-speed Internet, Internet
radio solves those problems. If you want to know what's popular in East
Framistan, just select that source. ;-)

BTW, with the exception of C&W, blacks pretty much invented American
Music.


"Invented" is a pretty strong word, but they were certainly in on the ground
floor.

"Jumpin' and hollerin'" was my dad's comment when the Beetles were
on The Ed Sullivan Show.


...and his dad's, with the Andrew's Sisters. ;-)

OTOH, Rap is a completely different animal. Do you remember anything from the
Beetles with the hate massage that is Rap? Well, maybe "The Tax Man". ;-)


There used to be alot of rap in the 1980's that was positive and about
advancing social causes and celebrating life and whatnot but those
artists and those sounds aren't being reproduced much from what I hear.
I was just a farm kid in Canuckistan and getting a hold of those tunes
was tough work, pre internet.

But there was a time when rap and hip hop wasn't all about celebrating
thug life. Do they even use the term hip hop anymore?

I wouldn't know whether American music is wonderful or absurd. I only listen
to stuff that was composed at least 100 years ago. But sometimes I'm fooled.


Can't get past your youth, huh? ;-)

During a discussion of political campaigns around the office, I brought up
the subject of "Campaign Songs." One of the staff thought the idea
preposterous (the others were noncommittal).


Agreed, Springsteen is pretty lame.

So I go to the music store. After searching diligently for twenty minutes or
so, I finally approached the clerk with the least amount of metal in his
face and asked: "Where can I find 'Charlie on the MTA' by the Kingston
Trio?"

"Cool, man," said the hippie. "Follow me."

We went to the racks. He stuck out his hand. He pulled out the album.

From the section marked "Classics."


I got it from Amazon.

Well, some the cars I drove are now called "classics". Oothers were called
"junk", then, and don't exist now. I suppose calling the music "classical"
fits, somehow (though "classical" has a, different, technical term, in this
case). Yes, some of the music was "junk", too. Sugar Shack, anyone?

Most pop music has *always* been pretty bad. As long as I can remember at
least...

I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now (1909, saccharin. [What's a "now"?])

A Tisket, A Tasket (30s, stupid)

Nature Boy, Mule Train, I'm looking Over A Four-Leaf Clover (40s, stupid).

Mairzy Doats (40s, ridiculous)

Skokiaan, Yakety Yak (50s, ridiculous), Love Me Tender (50s, saccharin)

Pretty much any rock (nothing except annoying rythym), doo wop (stupid), or
"surf" (one chord wonders")

All rap without exception

And many, many more, far too numerous to name. *Nota bene*...exclusions are
almost anything played by a decent swing/jazz band or group but there are
many exceptions here too as most of them also sold out from time to time for
the almighty buck. Even Kenton.

I don't know if you mean more recently or any time. I'm not up to
date with recent music but I would blame music producers instead
because I think they care more about what sells rather than what's
good. Further, I actually liked some black groups from the 60s and
70s but I know that's a long time ago and didn't like some songs from
white English bands then. Further, I have rather conservative views
on gay lifestyle yet I'm a big fan of Queen still. So I don't
classify race, etc... for my music likes or dislikes.

If music has anything to say about our culture, then America is in
much worse shape than most people realize.

Personally I'm rather old and still prefer the oldies from the 50s
thru the 80s, but when I'm in public I hear what is playing on the
juke boxes and modern radio stations, and all the stuff I like, is
all from foreign countries, while the stuff that I find to be the
most repulsive is American.

I'm not a racist by color, but I think American blacks have
completely ruined music.


I don't know if you mean more recently or any time. I'm not up to
date with recent music but I would blame music producers instead
because I think they care more about what sells rather than what's
good.


That's a moronic statement, even from you, Dougie. What's "good"
*IS* what sells, by definition. ...but you're a Democrat, so *you*
get to decide what's "good" for everyone else.


You have a wierd concept of "good". According to you, McDonalds makes good
hamburgers and anyone with taste buds knows that is an untruth.


You have the wierd concept of good.

McDonald's hamburgers might be considered good for millions of people on
the road, far away from home, on the job, need a washroom break, who
have only 60 seconds to find something to eat.

For eating a hamburger at home I don't consider McDonald's or any other
hamburger not ground from my meat grinder, good. i make my own
hamburgers and grind my own meat, but it's time consuming and not
practical for alot of people

Just recently after spending 4 hours on the road with a cranky 10 month
old teething baby who **** her diaper 3 times in the car with me, that
Big Mac tasted good for the 3 minute break I got. It filled my belly,
and gave me energy to drive another 90 minutes to my home at 8 pm.

And they had free wifi!

it's about context. Most McDonalds customers just want food NOW, and
McDonalds makes food good enough to be served hot within a very short
amount of time.

That makes it good. You can tell that it's good because billions trade good
money for them.

Further, I actually liked some black groups from the 60s and

Translated: "I actually have friends who are black."



Why does that matter? You racist ?

Of course this doesn't matter to you because you are just throwing out a
racist barb for the sake of being a racist. And most of your 1950's to
1980's music is most likely influence by Black creativity and sound,
developed in black communities...


Hey, most of the black musicians in the 50's and 60's had talent and I
enjoyed their music.

I cant think of even one of these modern black rappers that have even
one drop of talent. They are not singing, they are talking, and the
object seems to use as many cuss words are they can cram into the song.
Particularly the word "mother****er".
It's pure garbage. Even the background sounds are no longer real
instruments, it's just electronic noise.

The problem is that these days too many entertainment places adn bars
have these "Touch Tunes" jukeboxes, which have darn near everything ever
recorded. A bar is no longer a "country bar" or "rock bar" based on
what their jukebox contains in records or CDs. I live in the country,
near a small town. Country music is the most popular in rural areas,
yet there is not one night that I go to a bar and dont have to suffer
with that vulgar and annoying noice called Rap. I've asked more than
once, why these country people are listening to inner city ghetto
garbage???? No one has ever answered it, except some claim it's "good".

Good for what? The toilet maybe!!!

Now everyone *knows* your head is up your ass. According the people
who buy them, yes, they are "good". You must be a Democrat, too.


Actually, no. I have been a Republican for the last 58 years. I consider
myself a conservative one but I don't consider most of the current
"conservatives" as such, I consider them to be radicals. My idea of
conservatism may be best explained in Goldwater's "Conscience of a
Conservative".

Socially, I am more liberal. I don't like abortion - especially when used
as a "whoops" birth control - but I would far rather have that than to
regess to the days of back room abortionists with coat hangers.

I have neither love nor hate for homosexuals - though I am a bit irritated
by the loss of "gay" which was a useful word - but I see no reason for them
not to enjoy the benefits of a long term, committed relationship.

I think people that have been dealt a bad hand deserve help - even lifetime
help - but am appalled by the quantity currently sucking a government teat.
And I am equally appalled by the number of "regular folks" who are more than
willing to cheat on their income taxes, auto repair or other insurance
claims, etc.

Finally, I would jump for joy if openly atheistic people could get elected
to government. Even president. It would at least confirm that they can
access information and sort truth/probability from fairy tale. If Dubya had
been able to do that, just think how much better off we could have been.
