What is it about pop music and other mainstream music genres that is so off-putting? The shallow meaningless subject matter? The monotony of the genre? Whatever happened to the days when music used to have intelligent lyrics? It is at least reassuring that there are still artists who havent sold out to the masses and who compose works of value. One such artist that springs to mind is Zion I. I find that the song 'Leader' has quite an inspirational subject. 'No Regrets' by Aesop Rock is another intelligently written piece. It inspires the listener to always follow their dreams and not just give up on them. It's reassuring to know that artists still value the importance of the love of music over the money it will make the artist! Long live the underground!
Don't settle for low-grade music,
Tony.
