The worst music (genre) ever?

What is it for you?

Personally, it's CCM. It's all so generic, inoffensive, and uninspired; it is the audio equivalent of eating a large hard marshmallow. Hood rat gangster shit gets an honorable mention but I might change my vote if I had to endure it more than I do CCM, maybe.

Oh and Skrillex isn't a genre, no cheating like that.

Ganster Rap ?

Even some Christian rock isn't bad.

Christian Country I've never even heard of and won't go near.

And this from a dedicated old school Led Zep, Frank Zappa fan who has a pretty strong music background.

*shrug*

Even seeing Public Enemy inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of fame seemed weird to me last year when Rush finally was, but of course Randy Newman , and Donna Summer also over the last few years does too.

They're pretty much invalidating the things like the Grammys did to themselves long, long ago other than a musical BS news feed that makes money.

But I guess that's what they do, more or less.

Christian is the worst. It's the blandest regular music with Jesus substituted for $noun.

Anyway, in no particular order, truly bad music...

French rap
German metal
Christian contemporary
Country
Christian rock
Arabian traditional Koranic singing (not Sufi, which is good)
Gamelon
Big Band Swing
Jazz

You could have simply spelled it out in the OP instead of expecting all readers to google it.

I could have but
1. I thought its meaning was fairly well known.
2. I would prefer to take a minute to mock someone for not bothering to google instead of taking fifteen seconds to spell it all out the first time. The entire internet is a few keystrokes away; I'm not here to hold anyone's hand.

Lulz classical will never go out of fashion...

In certain circles, sure. As a fraction of all the people you know, how many people do you know that regularly listen to classical? Lindsey Stirling and Apocalyptica don't count.

Damn uncultured hippies.

Classical music is timeless.

See, this is why I didn't ask what the best music is, I knew this would happen. Also your post is not even an answer to what you quoted.

Why don't you grouse a little about whatever music you can't stand, you'll feel better.

Definitely CCM.

After that, posturing gangsta rap (though I don't mind when there's obvious talent behind it).

Rap. It took all of the harmony out of music and turned it into nothing but rhythm. By definition, it's technically not even music.

Call me an asshole. I don't dislike any whole genre of music - just certain songs & groups in each.

Actually, almost all the people I know listen to classical music. Even the ones that knows it only from Bugs Bunny :awe:

For me it's rap. I think it's the greatest scam since the pet rock. It gets even better when folks get into arguments about some rap artists street cred. Sorry but, spoken lyrics will NEVER be good music.

Yeah, to me music is like women from different ethnic groups, body types, styles, etc. May not want to listen to it all the time, but there is always something I like.

If it takes you 15 seconds to type "Christian Contemporary Music", the fault's on you for being a shitty typist.

Sorry for daring to post from a phone with screen problems in a car on the interstate. Your ad hominem is double fail. Oh and I pulled those numbers out of my ass purely for the sake of illustration, so that's actually a triple fail.
