Pop music alway sucks until it stands the test of time, even if its only a couple of years. I'm 25 and I think I'm pretty well immersed into almost every type of music, Jazz, Blues, Classical, Techno, Rock, R & B, I love it all. There is such thing as great pop-rap but you have to give it a few years and then go back to it. I've tried this approach and found some rap from just a couple of years ago that I couldn't stand when it was bumping out of everyones car windows, and now I've found something in it I can appreciate. I generally don't latch onto anything unless they're tried and true with previous albums that I enjoy, or if they've brought something original to the picture.
