Why can't art also entertain? I can think of plenty of music that is entertaining on the surface but more meaningful (or at least not stupid) if you take the time to listen more closely.
I say that as someone who sometimes enjoys lame top 40 pop songs, it's just that this idea that art and entertainment are diametrically opposed kind of annoys me.
