Mainstream music 

Music that always plays on the radio and the TV, and is on the top 40 list on every music software like iTunes and Spotify. It is quick-made on a computer, usually featuring not very good but good looking musicians (if they can be called that) and it is un-original and boring. People without any taste in music listen to it because it's easy to find and everyone else listen to it, so then they don't need to worry about being considered "different". Mainstream music songs usually stay on the top-lists for a couple of months or maybe a year, and then they're gone. Also, people who listen to it usually would call a 2 year old song "very old", though bands like Led Zeppelin still rock anyone's brains out with their songs from the seventees.
Annoying teen girl: "Oh my god, have you heard that new Rihanna song? I love it!"

A month later, someone puts on the same mainstream music song

Same annoying chick: "Eww that song is old and outdated, turn it off"

Minstrel Cycle 

n. The recurring cycle of changes in the behavioral patterns of certain individuals that is repeated roughly once every 28 days; marked by a strange attraction to wear European Renaissance style clothing, play the lute or lyre, and the desire to serenade rich people.

PMS, or Preminstrel Syndrome relates to the physical and psychological symptoms, including reciting poetry, talking in Shakespearean language, strong attraction to flamboyant clothing and stringed instruments, and occasional outbursts of heralding, that occur from 2 to 7 days before the onset of minstrelization.
"Why is Dave standing on the balcony performing such a ridiculous musical number in that awful green tunic?"
"Oh, he's just on his minstrel cycle, nothing to worry about."

Minstrel's Bane 

"The Minstrel's Bane" is an addendum to the Palma Sutra, the ancient vedic discourse on self-pleasure. "The Minstrel's Bane" is when you slip your flute into the case of the novice piper and allow him to practice his scales.
Apernam, though displeased with Shakti's falling prey to the Minstrel's Bane, forgave him, for he too was once fooled by the False Celery.

Manstress 

The male equivalent to a mistress. A married woman's side piece. A second dick you get when the first dick isn't satisfying you. A boy toy. The man you use, abuse, and throw away on top of the man you come home to every day.
Jamie: "Hey, was that Josh I saw you with on Saturday?"

Tammie Lynn: " Oooo girl PLEASE that was my manstress. I get a piece of him when Josh's dick just ain't cuttin' it."

Mainstream crap 

Music that focuses on getting stuck in your head and becoming so ubiquitus that you are forced to like it or else you will have clinical depression from hearing it so much. This music is almost always made by humans who are often called musicians (but in all truth, are not musicians) who manipulate their image for monotary reasons. This music often focuses on sounding much more technological than musical. Much pop and hip-hop to enter the top 40 has been mainstream crap since the '00's.
person 1: Man, Lady Gaga, The BEP, and other mainstream crap has been all over the place, it makes me want to commit suicide

person 2: I use to think the same thing, but now the music has grown on me

person 1: Nooooooooo! You failed in the battle to not get that music stuck in your head to the point where you have to like it! What has become of this world

pink minstrel 

A straight man, masquerading as a gay man, akin to the black and white minstrels who were white performers that put on makeup to imitate black performers.
Sean Lock turned to David Walliams with fire in his eyes and announced “don’t ever touch me again you pink minstrel.”
