INCREDIBLY overrated. People are so caught up in the music
scene that they forget that there's more to life. A simple
book can get you out of reality. People obsess about originality and being unique and individual... but they always limit it to the music
scene. Society cannot think outside of music. Music is conformity itself, believe it or not. We have people thinking that they are rebelling by LISTENING to
metal. People thinking that if they LISTEN to underground bands, they are different. They limit originality to what they LISTEN to.
15 year old boy: I'm tired of being a tool of
society, I think I'll go rebel by LISTENING to black
metal.
Person1: Oh, she listens to Good
Charlotte, she must be a teenie.
Person2: He's gangster, he listens to rap.
Person3: He's so
punk with his mohawk and his Sex Pistols tee.
Person4: Ew, you listen to Beyonce? Don't talk to me.
Notice how I emphasize the word LISTEN. Only because people judge others depending on what they listen to. Music went from something beautiful to something society uses as a tool to stereotype people/bring people down/judge people.
Music is the route of stereotypes.
Music is destroyed by society.
Music is overrated.
