[@Fabricant451] *imitating Jackie Chan's Uncle* One more thing!  Though I say that metal is my most cherished genre, that doesn't mean I'm a hater of all other music.  I still love classical and from time to time I'll listen to punk, dubstep, EDM, industrial music,anime soundtracks, old country, jazz, classic rock, 70s-80s music, 90s gangsta rap and the blues.  The only music I do revile completely however is pop.  Pop is fake and ignorant.  It's a popularity contest with no winner and the music is just so processed and cookie cuttered that it lacks the true soul and the captivation good music possesses.  It's not born from the heartfelt emotions of an artist, but slapdashed and scraped together with shit lyrics that make no sense at all.

You're discounting an entire genre based on the incorrect assumption that pop musicians like Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, and the like are somehow not actual artists. Please don't do that.
