Seen the charts lately?

Examples:

1.Nelly Featuring Kelly Rowland
2.Eve Featuring Alicia Keys
3.P. Diddy & Ginuwine Featuring Loon, Mario Winans & Tammy Ruggeri
4.Ludacris Featuring Mystikal & Infamous 2.0
5.Irv Gotti Presents The Inc. Featuring Ja Rule, Ashanti, Charli Baltimore & Vita
6.DJ Sammy & Yanou Featuring Do
7.Cam'ron Featuring Juelz Santana, Freekey Zekey & Toya
8.Angie Martinez Featuring Lil' Mo & Sacario
9.Chad Kroeger Featuring Josey Scott
10.Fabolous Featuring P. Diddy & Jagged Edge
11.Jennifer Lopez Featuring Nas
12.No Doubt Featuring Lady Saw
13.Beenie Man Featuring Janet
14.Nappy Roots Featuring Anthony Hamilton

*Shrugs* Modern music sux, IMHO, so I don't listen to it. It hasn't been the same since Jim Morrison died.

Jim says thanks Attalus.
I personally thinks there's always been sucky and excellent music and now is no different. It is a poor indictment though when a song needs:

Two artists featuring four guest artists presented by three guest producer for another producer's productions in conjunction with P.Diddy (He's involved in everything somehow).
Written by sixteen 'hit' writers but also includes 37 samples of proven hit songs and one obscure yet cred providing funk track.
Performed by an army of sessions muso's yet all you hear is the samples and the twelve programers.

Everything is so unnessesarily complicated now...

Words cant express how much I agree.

I stopped listening to raido a while ago. I havent liked anything that has come out in 3 or 4 years.

The last 'new' band I like that came out was Days of the New. Ironic huh??

Same here. I listen to the 1980's and EARLY 1990's Music mostly. The crap they play is all rap, and I don't like rap. OR country. bla... [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

My only question is what ever happened to correct SPELLING!! All you have to do is look at some of the names to see what I mean.

A lot of new stuff does indeed suck. And many old things are very good, but there are some good new things as well. "Epiphany" by "Bad Religion", for example, is possibly the best song I've ever heard.

Unlike most people here I happen to like some of those songs. *incredulous stares* Who cares if it takes more than one person to make a good song? A band isn't just one person now is it? I like old bands like Led Zeppelin too and Jimmy Paige didn't make that all by himself. And even if he did I don't care! [img]tongue.gif[/img]
