It's not about smarter, it's about production value and musicality. The Beatles and Stones wrote quite a bit about society especially religion and their music was erotic.

That's extremely vague, and can certainly apply to artists making music now.

Go onto a Beatles forum and they talk about it quite a bit.

Oh my, I can't think of many things more unappealing than visiting a Beatles forum.

Ah, who cares if you don't get it...you will never get it.

I don't think either of us truly will.

No, it's not that. Many of us have lives outside of the internet. Not all people are happy to be at home playing video games and posting on safe spaces such as Reddit. Many of us go out, look for adventures, have lives.

You two dudes are internet millenials. Trust me terrorists aren't going to kill you if you go to dive bars to catch local musicians and Hip Hop artists perform.

In talking to older middle class musicians there is a Southern music scene which is vibrant and a Chicago scene that is vibrant. In Southern CA, we have quite a few local hero's and the scene is growing. Again, but you got to get out of the house...but if you cannot relate to people maybe it is better if you stay in your safe spaces, let the big boys live life.

I'm not a millennial, I'm almost 40. And I see a lot of live music, I'm not even sure why you jumped to that weird conclusion. Also, I'm well aware that Chicago has a vibrant music scene, I was part of it for half a decade.

My comment about the internet going out of style was a joke. What I'm saying is that the internet has forever de-regionalized music—and that's a good thing. Where you used to hope that people where you lived would be interested in what you wanted to play, now you have the ability to connect with people all over the world.

Lou Bega makes me want to punch things. Not in the same way that Napalm Death does.

So of course there are great musicians/bands currently

BUT

Heres my question, are mainstream pop hits suckier today than it was?

1970's biggest song


I'd say it's about the same.
