Day 81: Is There a Reason?

Day 16 of the 30 Day Challenge: "Your thoughts on mainstream music."

I don't listen to the radio. Now in the once a month occasion I do listen to music on the radio, I gotta say I'm not too impressed. Do I kinda jam out? Yes. The beats are catchy, that's why they're popular. But when I think of my top 5 bands, and the different qualities that I love about them, I don't find those qualities in mainstream music. That's just how it fly. I don't think the bands that are out there are that great. Are they musically talented? Yes. But I wish more of them wrote their own stuff (I'm looking at you, Jonas/Miley/Britney/and probably Lady Gaga).
