Theodor Adorno, a German philosopher and musicologist, in the early 20th century was critical of popular music, arguing that it is formulaic, superficial, and lacks the depth and complexity of serious art music. He believed that popular music is designed to manipulate and control the masses, rather than challenging them to think critically, and This is similar to what music critics. As they argue that popular music is overly commercialized, prioritizing profit over artistic expression.
Because for me, if your music is any of the three listed categories, then music critics are coming for your ass, as they have this idea that music is an art and shouldn't be enjoyed by the Masses. So hence any music enjoyed by the masses is seen as inauthentic, formulaic and repetitive. For me it's starting to seem very simple, once your music is very

Hello,hope y'all doin good, i came to Quora to share my strange story , a very weird one , a story when luck smiled at me ,maybe u will enjoy it , let's begin,have fun...
A year ago ,I was a real porn addicted(btw I was 18) ,but never had sex before, I don't have a gf I didn't try to find one even ,always thinking to go to find a sex worker but then I just don't , everyday watching different bodies getting fucked and everyday enjoying.
One day, I was watching porn, a big ass lady with big boobs ,just after seeing her the image of my female cousin poped in my mind, (let's introduce her : she's 35 years old , very big ass , nice boobs ,not very big but nice,always wearing tight clothes , she's divorced ) and I thought of me fucking her ,I never had sexual desires for her but now I do days went by and when I met her I was so horny ,I couldn't stay with the family cz my penis was clearly erected , I realized this is my first time I get horny for one of my family ,it not illegal in my country.well to make a long story short( if u want details just text me I will tell u 😊),I decided to give her signs that I want to fuck her,finally I decided to have sex and with my cousin , I thought it is the best beggining for me, i started touching her when I came across her in a narrow place , make her feel my hard cock when we hug , I thought it will hard and I will be ashamed but no , I felt nothing and she said nothing , probably she thought it was by mistake,anyways, I decided then to talk with her about sex, waited for her to be alone in a room and talk with her, I confessed everything about me watching porn and addicted..etc,she said it's normal and u are growing up and u must have sex,well at that time I was like whaaat????? Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever..
We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc

Canadian rock band Nickelback is one of my post grunge acts, especially when I consider their work in the early 2000s, their lyrics about relationships, heartbreak, were theme’s that weren't considered in grunge or if they were considered weren't mainstream, until Nickelback came around.
This would bring them fame and help them sell records, as they have more than 50 million albums worldwide. And In 2009, Billboard ranked them as the most successful rock group and the seventh-most successful artist of that decade; with "How You Remind Me" was the best-selling rock song and the fourth-best overall.

This has been said by music critics everytime a very popular artist release's new music and it's successful, that's why critic's hate Drake and imagine dragons.
But this won't win them any flowers in critics, as their would be a negative reception to their work. As despite their commercial success, Nickelback has been subjected to vocal negative response for some from rock music fans, and on May 2013, the readers of Rolling Stone magazine named Nickelback the second-worst band of the 1990s, behind only Creed. Wow, that speaks volumes that they are very unliked. But why
