I will in fact state my opinion on an artist on why I do and don't like them when asked, but I also state that it's only my opinion, and music is completely subjective. I just hate seeing people say things like "the popular American mainstream music is ****" making it seem objective. It's probably one of the most frustrating things to deal with when you're trying to talk to someone about music.

But this is not a conversation. This is a music forum.
I don't see anything wrong with someone making a thread voicing their opinion on why they dislike the current pop music.
If people do not want to talk about the topic then they should not participate in the thread.
Its one thing if the topic was a response to someone claiming to like pop music..but its not.
I happen to agree with the OP which is why I said what I said in the thread.
