^ Yeah theres always gonna be people who are extremists about it. If it's mainstream it HAS to suck...and if it's good they have to find something "better" that they can throw at you when you talk about a mainstream artists with talent. I ignore those people. I can totally agree with you on the content. Everything did sound different back then though. Up until the 90's you still had people trying to do their own thing....Like Wu-Tang..Rza's Production was unique for one..as for others? They may have sounded like someone coincidentally but not purposefully...
These days everyone sounds like everyone else on the greater scale it's like they look at each other to see whats working and copy it. Then pass around the same producers back and forth to each other like a whore. I love Pharell and Chad and I know Pharell tries to sound different with every beat but it still has that core sound..it still sounds like a Neptunes beat ya know? And EVERYONE is using Neptunes for beats. Gets a little old.
They're doin the same thing to Kanye now. And as time went on ya have more and more songs filling up the CD about money, girls, cars, drugs, n thuggin. Wouldn't be sooooo bad if each song didn't sound almost exactly the same and they at least tried to go above one syllable every now and then. But they clearly don't care..because apparently we don't care and we still buy the shit anyway...rest assured if we did start caring they'd wise the fuck up REAL quick.
Asta!!
