I won't lie to you. 99.9 percent of mainstream rap DOES suck. And coming from a rap fan, that's saying something. It's people like 50 Cent who are promoting stereotypes of rap-talkin' all that shit about hoes, money, drugs and takin' people to the candy shop. They're ruining a great music genre.

The worst music out there. It is usually for people that have low IQ's, are conformist, and are afraid to explore other music out there.
It is always on the radio, Top 40, MTV, and everywhere you go! All of it is crappy music created for people with no idea what good music is.

Teenybopper Girl 1: Hey, that new Jonas Brothers song is awesome! Have you heard it?
Rock or Metal Fan 2: No, your music is crappy gay mainstream music pretending to be rock. It is rubbish music made for idiots with no music taste.

Refers to the major tv networks, radio stations, magazines and newspapers who are tightly regulated and controlled by governments and the elite in order to mislead, brainwash and control the masses.

The most widely consumed media networks and publications in the West. Often they're either neoliberal or conservative and their views follow moneyed interests. The mainstream media is where most low-information voters get their politics from.

the opposite of mainstream. usually not the 'trend' and usually not what everybody else is doing. original and individual. can usually be identified as something original and/or something that will probably never become popular, but awesome nevertheless.
mainstream : conformists :: non-mainstream : individuals.
SOMETIMES alternative/emo/indie music. other music, such as pop punk, can be mistaken as non-mainstream.

commercilized conformist music that is made to not offend anybody. It is listened to in the masses and often is unoriginal. People who don't have a clue about real music like mainstream because it is easy to listen to and it means they don't have to think and can save the effort of their braincells to think about what they should have for tea or who will be evicted from big brother.
guy: that joe mcelderry song 'the climb' is such an example of mainstream music.
girl: i know, that is why rage against the machine's 'killing in the name of' got the christmas number one.

Someone who is in love with Eminem when he collaborates with Lil Wayne, and other mainstream rappers.
They love his new songs because they talk about dropping the world on peoples heads and not being afraid.
These people tend to lack the knowledge of what real music and or Eminem is now a days.

Mainstream Eminemer: Man, I love that song Not Afraid! Great song I'll listen to it for hours! I'M NOT AFRAID TO TAKE A STAND! So inspirational.
Stranger: Ever listen to Lose Yourself? That's even better, great song from back in the day man.
Mainstream Eminemer: WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? That music is so early 2000's. His new stuff is way better dude!
Stranger: All his stuff now is bullshit, go get The Slim Shady EP and listen to it, maybe that will change your mind.
Mainstream Eminemer: Whatever.
