Disney Pop vs. Hip-Hop

So Disney pop music and most gansta rap are exactly the same thing.

I know what you're thinking: "No, no they're fucking not."

And yes, in musical styles, they are quite different, but when it comes down to marketing and musical evolution they are quite the same.

They are both pre-packaged musical shit that encompasses a specific stereotype of person's likes. One, fits the exact crap that black people should like, the other the same for white people. Both Miley Ray Cyrus and Lil' Wayne are the same diluted shit that music exces think we should all listen to.

They both are also loosely based in real music, one in rock and the other in rap (the kind that's thought provoking and meant to question the establishment in an intelligent way), but both are now so in pop culture that they barely resemble their predecessors.

Just a thought I thought I would throw out there.

In the immortal words of Frank Zappa:

"Modern music is a sick puppy."

In other immortal words of FZ, "Help, I'm a rock."

And then there is that musical question, "Suzy Creamcheese, what's got into you?"

That Frank was quite a wag, and I don't think he dug any kind of pop music - strictly commercial.

Is that a real song, or is it a SEARS song?
