Lily Allen :umm2: I feel like there's this expectation that if I'm clever enough to understand her tongue in cheek style, I must therefore appreciate it - but I don't. I think she's a dick. A lady dick.Well said.

For me, Eminem. Not a big fan. I haven't got any of his albums and I don't think I've heard one of them all the way thru.

Oh actually Mariah Carey's another one. It's the same reason I don't really get Jessie J (obviously she's not really eligible for this thread either but anyway) - I don't care how many ridiculous notes she can technically hit, when it comes down to it I just don't think very much of her musical output and I don't like her personality or attitude.

:worship:

Squealing out of your range does not make any music nicer to listen to. I quite like Jessie J's voice when it's normal but when she starts having spasms and making stupid noises I just want to slap her.

I think its a bit unfair to list an artist who was before you were born. Lennon was the most quotable Beatle, Elvis opened the doors for others etc. IF you weren't around its easy to say its overrated without witnessing the impact their music had. Just my personal opinion.

Hmm you can dislike a band or artist without denying they had a big impact on the music scene though..

The thread is basically asking who you dislike that others think you should like.

The problem with not liking a artist you really have to of heard all the music first. most people dislike someone with only hearing a couple of songs or have some misinformed opnion of them.
i bet most of the artists we are not keen on there's actually songs we really like of theirs.
there's always least 2 with most bands whether you like them or not.

If you don't like the music you hear from a particular band/artist you're not going to go through listening to their entire back catalogue on the off chance there's a couple of decent songs. One or two good songs doesn't make you suddenly a fan of them either if you hate 99% of their output.

yeah but my point is most people they really only know a few songs before they make a opinion. which is pretty unfair. we all do it. so what we might class as a sucky band one day can change the next. or could change if we made the effort to listen more.
i think you got to listen to more than a few songs to really say a artist sucks.

I don't think it's unfair at all. A lot of the most popular artists at any given time are where they are through a combination of their music and being able to capture the general public's imagination en masse and sweep that up into a frenzy. Then, once it's all over, people then take the time to reflect back and realise that maybe they weren't as amazing as was thought at the time because some part (perhaps a huge part, perhaps only a little part) of the hype was purely because that was the thing everyone was into. That's why I said I don't think John Lennon is a good solo artist. His solo career got the platform it had because he was a member of The Beatles. He actually didn't have very much of interest to say, his lyrics were uninspired and in my opinion his solo music showed him up to be not a very talented person, pretending to be one. He was long before my time. I have the benefit of being able to listen to his music without being caught up in Beatlemania - an unbiased judgment, I would say.

31-05-2014, 06:42 PM

I feel the same way about Beyonce actually. I loved Destiny's Child - Bug A Boo, Bills Bills Bills, Say My Name, Independent Women, Survivor, they had so many incredible force of nature tracks that just jumped out at you on first listen - Beyonce as a solo artist is a fantastic live performer but her music is really average and I preferred her in Destiny's Child.

Your examples are not of untalented people they just highlight how much they needed their band. There are numerous examples ie Gary Barlow. Some people are not so great solo but it doesn't mean they are untalented.

But that's a different point.

You say people weren't around during these artist's "peak years" therefore can't fully appreciate how fresh or innovative it was and now you're talking about them listening to no more than one or two songs.

You don't have to have been born during Elvis's era to go back and listen to his whole catalogue. It's a separate point.

Saying you don't like an artist or their music is not discrediting their career, popularity or impact, it's simply pointing out that through all of that you don't like the music itself.

You can say you don't like Beatles music (I'm sure many didn't at the time too) but that's not taking away the fact that they were pioneers of pop music. You're looking too deeply into a simple question.

Discussing the Beatles impact and legacy and talent is an entirely separate debate.Yes the OP is a simple question and I still think its unfair to list an artist that was before you were born.

We've been over this already.

:facepalm: You don't need to have been born or around in the 60s to know about the Beatles impact.

And you don't need to know about their impact to know whether you enjoy their material or not, we've been over this.

You're taking it in circles so we'll end it there.

Maybe. But it is contrary to the thread topic.

You can appreciate an artist's impact and influence and still dislike their music. I can't stand Madonna, but her career and influence cannot be disputed.

The word overrated annoys me. Dislike anything you want, but unless you know all the ins and outs of something you can't really claim it's either too lowly or highly rated.

Jay Z would be mine. His music does nothing for me. Find him quite dull.

tbf I don't love MBDTF. For whatever reason it doesn't really connect with me.

808s & Heartbreak was his last really great album imo. Nothing beats it when you're feeling down.

I do like the album as a whole but it's definitely not as amazing as people make out. And I definitely prefer it to 808s

Easy for me this, it was when they were together and is still the case for them solo too. 'The Spice Girls'.

I was always being told they are/were great and I could never see it at all.

The only one I have had a liking for was Emma Bunton because she at least didn't near murder my favourite song 'Downtown' when she covered it for Children in need.
