Why is pop sucking right now? Ex. Katy Perry

"One Man’s Meat is Another Man’s Poison" Any form of art will always have admirers and that includes singers. Why else would they survive. Despite the likes of you not appreciating Katy Perry she is still surviving.

Sorry, I think that ...that kind of music is almost always the same. So... I dont think that it sucks now. It always did

Music styles go through so many changes. society and the world in general will have the influence to motivate what music is listened to and enjoyed. I don't relly think that popu music is sucking as a whole. it is just hat we take from what we are listening to and what it means to us.

I think it's quite catchy.I really like that song but the music video creeped me out And about the rest artists,they are all talented and loved by millions around the world.I'm not much of a fan of anybody.I just love the music.The music video or script doesn't really bother me that much.

I don't know it's all personal taste, as I hate Jessie J and think she's the one trying to hard with her pretend bad girl attitude, and I think Lady Gaga is just getting worse as she releases more songs. I think pop will always be the "cheesiest" music genre, and have the most critics as well as followers so hopefully soon more stuff that you appreciate will come out!

hi! I think ET was okay, it was nonsense, but catchy, and that's what people like nowadays. I do wish that most popular songs would have more substance. People just take what is given to them most of the time, and there's no definition of our generation. It's all about fad. One day you're in, the next, you're out. Which is a pity. Pop songs of other decades were really good and defined them. Music is supposed to define us, but now there's no identity. That's why we're called GenX. I do agree with Jessie J. Her song Price Tag is catchy, popular, and more important, it has substance! How hard is it to make songs like that, right? LOL

I love Katy Perry but E.T. ANNOYS ME to no end... I just want to run screaming from the room whenever it comes on. I think the reason pop music is taking such a downturn is disposablity and saturation. The trend seems to be throw ten acts that all sound basically the same at the wall and hope at least one of them sticks. There is no incentive for bands to be original, unique, emotional (not to be confused with "emo" which has been blown completely out of proportion), creative... in fact, it is almost discouraged. If you've paid any attention to my music related posts, you've likely seen the name Kill Hannah. These guys are what the music industry needs to aspire to. They've been "at it" since 1996, never had a "hit" (according to their wiki page, the only single they've ever had even chart was Lips Like Morphine that hit 37 on the U.S. Modern Rock charts), have watched their friends' bands (30 Seconds to Mars, My Chemical Romance, Good Charlotte) succeed like crazy and supported them regardless, and they stick with it because they love it and love their fans. Their current single "Promise Me" was released without their label's backing, the video was produced on favors and pennies without filming permits (or their label's backing), and has gotten upwards of 100,000 hits tallying up all the places you can watch it (Kerrang, NME, Nylon and YouTube, off the top of my head). And they are headed back into the studio for another album to be released next Spring with a world tour already in the booking stages. They are the craziest story ever. Awesome, amazing, incredible, have some insane media backing, a song on the Rock Band network but can't get ahead of the game. /end kill hannah geek-out

Some songs are really boring nowadays. But somehow these kind of music is what people like. They like those great beats even though the lyrics or the meaning is nonsense.

I think pop isn't as good because everybody is just trying to copy each other and make songs for the radio. The artists main goal is to make money and not to make good pop music.
