So I was looking at the most popular genres of music on the Myspace music listing page, and I saw things that horrified me.

Rap and hip hop were number one and number two. This tells me that our society has lost its footing in the realm of decent music. Why is music that's so bad so popular? Why do people care about pimps, bitches, drugs, etc? And why do they love so much bass my car shakes? Is there something about that sort of music that makes people love it? Or is it just a sign that our musical culture is going to hell? The alternatives to those two seem to be "indie" and "emo", and then the people who love death metal come in. What happened to good music?
