I am a 40 year old male ...grew up on Metallica, Anthrax, Slayer, Judas Priest, Hip, and whole bunch of other man music.
I have no problem with Nikki Minaj, Nickleback, Bieber, CeeLo, Bruno Mars and other commercially successful performers. In fact they are all on my active playlist.
Haters gonna hate. I like music for what it is, ear candy. I don't get the music snob scene.
One of my closest friends is an elementary school music teacher and when I caught her bashing Bieber, I asked her to consider how proud she would be if one of her students was able to reach that level by being an entertainer. Yes, he may not have the best voice or maybe even has it enhanced, but how many people could do what he has done, even with the industry pimping him out.
Sorry, just enjoy what the world offers and don't worry if its cool to bash it.
As Long as You Love Me, Stop the Alarm and Marry Me!
