Cause nowadays is all about the beat not really the content anymore..

Ive noticed the most popular parts that ppl sing out in modern pop songs is the most dumb downed part of the song that either has no lyrics and it's just a vowel chorus or it's sh*t like 'oppa ganman style' or 'Turn down for what' stuff that doesn't really mean anything but it sounds nice with a sick beat.

But still, even today you got artist like andrew jackson jihad who is like a modern Bob dylan of sorts and he's super popular.
