I think Baraka Guru summed it up well, but I will put my own spin on it.
Some of us look to music as a form of art. We appreciate music that has artistic value (brings new or thoughtful elements to the fore). We do not appreciate music that lacks artistic value or appears to be created solely for the purpose of making money. "Musicians" with the full backing of their record label's publicity armada are in that position because the label sees them for their marketability, not necessarily their art. Music that is not only popular, but lacks artistic value is subject to high amounts of ridicule because it exposes the agenda of the music industry like a gust of air from a vent on the ground.
