So basically you hate pop music and hate them because they've been successful and some of the tosh bands you probably like no one has ever heard of? So you hate because you are jealous?

Lily Allen - she's a cockney, so what?

Katy Perry - can't sing? When have you actually heard her sing other than a record on the radio?

Jessie J - so now cos she's white and got a break you hate her?

All very valid reasons there I would say!! Well done

My favourite band are in YOUR avatar

And nope, i hate them because they annoy the crap out of me. Never understood the 'you hate em because you're jealous' hook.. i'm jealous of ANYONE who has it better than me, life sucks, that doesn't mean i hate everybody's music though... does it?

An Oasis fan slating other artists/bands has to be one of the biggest ironies ever, considering Oasis are one of the most over-rated, one-trick-pony acts of all time??....

As for your rants, I agree that Jessie J has been elevated into her present status by a lot of UK industry bigwigs, who wanted to create their own Katy Perry/Pink type act, but as for Perry, I don't quite get your gripe - I don't think she has ever set out to be any more than what she is, which is a bubblegum pop act who does passable pop tunes which appeal to a mainstream market.... Personally, there are, and have been over the years, pop acts who are a lot worse than her.

I disagree, but that's the beauty of a democracy, right?

My gripe is that her music annoys me. Which is what the thread is about

Not fussed about her either way but she has co-written 10 of her own songs that she has released.
Plus countless more album tracks.

So racist that their first single, Prince Buster, was a homage to a black guy. They took their name from one of his songs.

Have you actually got any evidence to back this poop up?

Jessie J, Adele, Emeli Sande, Status Quo, Rihanna, Lily Allen, One Direction, Justin Bieber and Beyonce are the main ones that spring to mind.

Reasons? Or are you another that just doesn't like them due to their chart success and you don't like pop music??

And yes Mike Oxlong, it's because I don't like pop music, no excuses needed, is that ok?

Of course it is, but not exactly a reason hate of the artists named is it?

I don't like pop music either particularly, and wouldn't spend my own money on buying it - but I can say for sure that I don't hate any of the people that make it. People that buy it on the other hand...
