Why Does Every Song On The Billboard Hot 100 Sound The SAME?

[bogey_j]

every singer sounds the same

every rapper sounds the same

every beat is the same glossy, over-produced trash

the performer could be from australia or denmark but you'd never know it because they all sound the same

if you want proof globalization is a terrible thing just take a look at the current state of the music industry. there are no unique, regional sounds coming though anymore; its all homogenized trash

It's always been this way - the sound changes about every 3-5 years

there's been articles about this. how most of the hit songs have the same 4 chords.

shyt is corny now, very few people are trying to do something different. i want to know what music sounds like in weird towns and countries across the world, i don't want to hear their future and drake impressions.

where is the hip hop kurt cobain to change this shyt?

Scientists have figured out the notes and tempo that maximize sales that information gets transferred to a lot of producers, then the songs get played ad nauseum and the cycle goes on.

If that's what you're looking for then you might as well stop listening to rap
