I find it amazing and very sad how a TV station (like MTV) can dictate so easily to our society the kind of music that is suddenly considered 'in' to listen to and the groups that are popular (I guess reading books and *not* believing everything that you hear are lost arts). All of these pre-fabricated groups really annoy me and even more so when I see then become popular. They can't play their own music or write their own songs. All they are are figure heads to be used by some corperate executive to influence the younger generation so that he can make a profit. Sigh, slaves to the media...

I personally can't stand Kid Rock. And while I, like Fendi, admit to occasionally listening to and enjoying the occasional boy band or blonde girl song, I think what I saw a couple of days ago is what saddens me the most. I was flipping through the channels, and noticed that on TRL the #1 song of the afternoon was, quite frighteningly, Hanson. I realize the average viewer of MTV is only like 15 or 16, making them fairly young during the MMMBop conspiracy, but honestly, didn't they learn the first time??

If we don't mind going back to Kid Rock, i've hated him since they starting playing that first 'hit' of his on the radio. BUt the worst is that one 'Only god knows why.' I can't stand hearing the guy bitch for several minutes about how hard and shity his life as a millionaire rockstar is. Poor Kid Rock. Whine, Whine, Whine. ... Give me a break.About the rest of them, the masses buy whatever the record companies/MTVs play. They're brainwashed until they have no individuality, etc. It's too bad. About britney, her only talent/source of popularity is in her bra. About Limp Bizkit and the record company shit, i kinda hear you about their records having a lot of shit on them and only a few songs. But not all groups' albums are like that. Also, a good way we have of fighting that is Napster: we don't buy the shitty albums w/ 1 good song, we just download the 1 song and screw the record companies.
