pop music group

A talentless, cookie-cutter product of the music industry that has changed form over the years, but right now in 2004 generally consists of:

1) A Jamaican-sounding guy singing in broken English and making little if any sense
2) Any girl with a half-decent voice, usually singing about dancing in the club or something equally overused and pointless

Apparently some people in America actually like this kind of music and have the impressive self-restraint to avoid changing the station when such a group is on the radio. I have yet to meet such a person, but I'd guess that middle schools all over the country are full of them.

See Sean Paul featuring whoever, Black-Eyed Peas, Shaggy featuring whoever, or any of the 200 other no-name spinoffs.

Typical song:

Jamaican guy:
"Shake yo booty mama
Shake shake yo booty
I like to see you shake it
Shake yo booty shake it"

Girl:
"I'm in the club dancing on a Friday night
I'm hangin with my peeps and I feel all right"

And so on...
The above song would probably crack the top 10 on the pop charts if I were to expand the lyrics and produce it. Sad, isn't it?

Rock Music

Long ago there was a way skilled musicians could express themselves about a variety of topics. Often, once famous, rock stars would use drugs and alcohol. They, however, all had skills. Sadly, this culture was brutally murdered. The horrors of modern "music" killed the fuck out of the last of real music. With the death of rock, music finally died. It has long been believed by music fans that someday a band will rise to resurrect music. This band has not yet come. As of now the barren wasteland that is now the radio is dominated by horrible demons such as Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, Kanye West, and other such total failures to create music.

Billy turns on a radio

OH shit! this sucks! I'm going to go listen to my AC/DC cd's, real rock music.
