so you don't like anything that on another level you see as being quite bad

its not because its pop music...i feel the same way about happy hardcore

i love timbalands production

its usually the other way around and most people are only comfortable liking pop songs...i guess some people are understandably guilty of wishing to distance themselves from that way of thinking so they do the reverse.
i just like having a variety of stuff to listen to is all

I think pop music has severely declined since the 80's - and it seems that every song I want to like is covered in some retarded ass lyrics or bad culture references.

...to be flat and dry about it...

Everything seems manufactured..

.. by style obsessed child pornographers.

if you like something can it really be bad? i also like some happy hardcore - i don't think it's the most intelligent credible music in the world. but i certainly don't have that criteria set up to decide whether or not i like something.

if i like something i don't think it's bad. you can bring in other things like it being cheesy, base, dumb or whatever, but if i like it i think it's good.

liking someone's production but not liking the vocal is a different issue i reckon.

you can perhaps think something lacks the values of something else but to what extent is this judgment your own and to what extent are you being influenced by other factors?

what if you like government propaganda that makes you feel like joining the army? certainly that could be argued to be bad?

all music/art can be imbued with meaning/purpose. when that purpose is bad, the art could be argued to be fundamentally bad.

I think people become purists about music and rejecting "pop" music for the same reasons they become dogmatic about religion and politics.

AFIAC it is BS driven by the desire to be accepted in certain social groups and cultures(in some cases).

well i was responding to this part:
"if i like something i don't think it's bad. you can bring in other things like it being cheesy, base, dumb or whatever, but if i like it i think it's good. "

in which it would be the issue here.
