Without going into generational music, I will try to explain it somewhat. Why do some people like the color green while others like blue? Why do some like plays and others do not ? Why do some like classical music and others do not? Why do some like grand Prix races and some like oval tracks (driving in circles like big donuts)? Why do some remember Valentine's day and some ......some......oops ........got to go

I was at a neighbors house for the Super Bowl with about 40 people. Everyone of us were sickened and and disgusted over the halftime entertainment

It's not the music. It's the lyrics of some of the songs. We are cancelling people who said something stupid in their Junior year of college way back but saying nothing of the sentiment put forward in songs like, "F the police." Not the music or that we are not open minded enough to try to listen. The problem is we have.

The majority of the performers were right around 50 years old...

The music was from 30 years ago...

How "young" was that audience again?

That was "Mrs Cleaver"... Barbara Billingsley...

The nun gave her guitar to the Stewardess (who whacked everyone in the head with it as she walked to the back of the plane, and sang to the sick little girl, pulling out her IV...

One of my favorite movies...

Now that Neil Young is no longer on Spotify, I wonder what music they will be playing in the rest homes?:)

Officer Bimbeau in Hollywood Knights summed up last night’s halftime show. “ That’s not popular music that’s horse bleep”

Music is Meant to Entertain
 
Whether you like rap or not, I think the bigger issue here is that you have daytime T.V. and most families that watch it, do so together. Listening to disgusting lyrics is not something we had to live with or deal with...our rock music wasn't nasty, degrading or humiliating to anyone. Some of it was silly, nonsensical or ridiculous but there was so much more and the music was melodic. Rap has no melody...it's speaking in someone's rhythm and for the most part it often paints a very misogynistic picture of women especially, uses the N word unnecessarily if it's supposed to be offensive (whether you're black or white) and the constant F words are ludicrous. That just tells me you are incapable and an untalented lyricist when you can't produce something worth watching/hearing without them.

Rap is NOT singing! Rap is equivalent to the 60's hippies that recited half witted poetry in coffee houses, and just as entertaining. Say what you will and try as you might, but you can act like you are "with it" all you wish but you are NOT young, even if you attempt to endure and like their rap krap. I know plenty of young folks that enjoy our rock and roll, but I know of hardly ANY seniors that enjoy rap. I've enjoyed everything from classical, to jazz and country western and rock, but I have never found one rap piece that I have even tolerated. Even elevator music is better, in my opinion. I know of NO seniors that listen to rap at home or in their cars. I am sure there are a few on here that will dispute that statement, but they are only fooling themselves. Thank goodness most of my grandkids have more class.
