Oh my fucking god I just wanted to say how otherworldly bad music is right now (pop has always been stupid to varying levels but oh my fucking god they have raised the stakes). I just listened to a bunch of pop tracks from various genres and I literally think I'm about to die. Rock, country, indie, folk, hipster white rap, whatever you call home, is aggressively bad. It's like Walmart made a gun that can shoot cum and blood and piss and shit and puke into your soul. We are so fucking fucked. I want to saw my own head off.

The social technology to create slop music has been advancing by leaps and bounds for decades, so a lot of the mass-produced stuff is advanced level soulless and cynical. The worst stuff is where they try to artificially inject soul into the music. If the OP is just letting algorithms or radio passively deliver music to them, then they're going to have a bad time; I gotta think that's where they're coming from.
