Not liking the music because 'your granny likes it' is not a good enough reason for not liking it
Queen probably sold more records and CDs than most music genres did. Which means that while you don't like them, a large number of people did and still do. I respect your right to not like them but there are many unpalatable aspects to music that are far worse than not liking Queen.

- how shit music sounds on radio. Trebly compressed shite. Hate the radio
- piano playing in pop music. I'm a pianist predominantly, but because of this I know there is very little modern music that can be played on it that doesn't sound awful. I'm looking at Coldplay, muse, Keane, and all those wet John Lewis adverts in particular
I'll have more tomorrow when I've worked out how to word them

Singers that sing in a 'breathy' manner. Seems an easy way to avoid having to put any power into your vocals and sounds like you can't be arse. Lacks emotion IMO.
Guitarists who don't trim their string ends.
I said maybe.....

2. The most recent strain of hip-hop, which as far as I can tell is guys mumbling through zero-transient autotune over an extremely basic beat. The only intelligible lyrics, and I mean that in the loosest possible sense of the term, are "yuh" and "ayy" and "n****r" and "bitches". There might be some kind of tonal sample in the background, but any commitment to it being music is at this point barely audible.
With the strong caveat that I'm a 40-year-old white British man, the appeal of most hip-hop has been completely opaque to me for at least the past 15 years. I thought that the point was these guys were supposed to be amazing rhythmic vocalists and lyrical geniuses. I encourage you to google lyrics by someone called "Young Thug", who according to Wikipedia is supposed to be the most influential rapper of his generation, and tell me if you can detect any strong themes, powerful imagery or engaging narratives there. Then I encourage you to put his name into YouTube and tell me if you come across any performances that don't make him sound like he's just been shaken awake in a shop doorway.

I'm honestly not sure what to make of it.
As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
"Songwriters: Bill Kapri / C. Gandy-Rogers / David Doman / Dieuson Octave / J. Thomas / Jacques Webster / Kiari Cephus / M. Prince"
That's fully eight guys it apparently took to come up with it. What the fuck is going on there?
It's often clever to quote from other songs but why she chose to quote from Old Macdonald Had A Farm is lost on me.
