Worst singer ever to show up in the entertainment industry



I totally second what this guy (or girl maybe?) asked, honestly, I'm also sick of his pre-pubescentt voice hogging the airwaves wherever I go. Seriously, why would anyone go crazy over lyrics that keeps repeating over and over again:


baby, baby, baby, oh

baby, baby, baby, no

baby, baby, baby, oh


Is that even considered a song in the first place? No, I don't think so. Throughout the many years of music history, there are even better music greats that are popular for the quality of their music, real music in fact, as opposed to this lucked out pre-pubescent that got famous only because he got lucky. That's it.

This isn't about hating or playing the jealousy card at all. It's about music, and meaningful lyrics at it's simplicity and at it's best. Not repeating the same lame lines over and over again. Can you imagine Louis Armstrong or Bon Jovi having a song that has the exact same lyrics quoted above? Sounds like it will rip your guts out forcefully, huh?

Music artistes such as Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Metallica, Queen have been gradually replaced by the likes of this pre-pubescent kid. This just simply cheapened the terms music and artistes. Nowadays, style is more important than substance, image is more important than the music itself and the quality of music has become so bland it is even more predictable than the North Korea vs. South Korea situation. Essentially, this is music for people who either knows nothing about music or for people who aren't all that into music.

Lyrics in music nowadays have slowly but surely degenerated into a mindless repetition of clichés, sexual innuendo, crass consumerism and artificial emotions complete with a complete lack of regard for substance. Take this pre-pubescent kid's songs for example, they are extremely simple, vapid and repetitive, reflecting the generic, infantile nature of the music itself. Simply put, how much can a 16-year-old at that time know so much about this little notion called Love when other perfectly normal adults go through heartbreaks, break-ups, marriage-do-us-part ideals?

And speaking of music, artistes like Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, just to name some, do not even need to sell their image, they sell themselves through their music, they write their own music and respect the intelligence of their fans. They have made contributions to music, exploring new ideas and influencing many others. Disposable whores like this pre-pubescent kid only serve to fill up the emptiness left behind by the likes of the once music greats, before someone just remotely better comes along and fill that position once more, in a never-ending cycle. Rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat.

And to summarize the experience of catching bits and part of this pre-pubescent kid's song(s), they are just simply raping my ears through and through. And I would like to see the day when this pre-pubescent kid feels royally screwed when his voice breaks and all this crazy, brainless teen and tween female fans leave him.

And I refuse to spell this pre-pubescent kid's name on my blog. My blog is much better suited to naming music greats than a talent-less has-been.

  1. Yup, the music industry right now is not the same as before. The previous decades have great music.

  2. @ Mharms: So true. Sometimes, I just wish people in the music industry could do more to preserve good music from the good years. Music by, to name some good artistes, Ella Fitzgerald, The Carpenters, or even Led Zeppelin or Metallica.

    Not progressively promoting sub-par music now. Occasionally listening to current pop is fine if it's just to relax, but going absolutely mad over it is just, I don't know, weird to the pooint that it's ridiculous.
