Lorde - Royals. That song basically sh*t all over mainstream music and got tons of love from the mainstream. Not because of the message though, because it was catchy. Majority of the people listening to radio music do it so they don't have to sit in a quiet car or listen to talk radio.

Mainstream music is not made to sound substantial. It's made for bars, background noise, and social events where people just like to have something tickling their ears without requiring thinking to appreciate it. Pop music fulfills this role perfectly. Also, making good pop music is a f*cking art, it may sound like crap to people who have no appreciation for it but I'm confident there is a science behind it.

I don't see a problem investing money in any kind of fun unless it is harmful to others. People used to say that **** to me all the time.. "OMG you spend real money on a video game?". Yes, I do it provides hours of entertainment. $10-20 for a cd that potentially provides a life time of enjoyment is a solid investment.
