I just really hate how people go from "oh it's mainstream." to meaning that "well if it's popular and mainstream that automatically means that it is terribad". That type of elitism that I find here on the forums is just straight up stupid imo. You claim to be open minded to music but then you turn around and shut out all artists that are mainstream.

There's mainstream mainstream and there is mainstream underground.
Then there is everything else which is relatively little known within it's own genre or is just a relatively small supported genre.
