That is exactly how I feel about modern music, whatever is catchy and simplistic makes ti to the top. You probably didnt walk around in the 70's hearing people sing the lyrics to pink floyd songs or no quarter or somethin like that, because they lyrics weren't everything, it was about the music. Alot of songs didnt even have a chorus, imagine that. Nowadays, especially when it comes to rap it is just whatever has the catchiest beat or lyrics that becomes popular.
