This blog wasn’t made to blatantly critique top 40 music without reason and substantial evidence as to why we were doing so; our aim was to raise awareness about other styles that we feel have more to offer than the commercial and arguably contrived strains of top 40 ‘popular’ music. Furthermore, we feel that our individual opinions, academic research, rants & ravings, etc, help to convey the very personalised nature of music that seems largely ignored, or overlooked, by top 40 artists who seek wealth, fame and prestige. This is arguably achieved only by appealing to as many people as possible; sadly through providing the most easily palatable, commercialised product at the expense of something perhaps more insightful, creative, or artistic.
If you are an avid music fan out there, who only listens to top 40 music, in a very shallow and non-engaging way, please take the time, to fully take in what our blog is trying to provide – that being, an insight into other styles of music, in a much more active and personal level, and trying to raise awareness of the fact that there is much more on offer out there, that you can hopefully enjoy and take meaning from.
Please be aware that ‘top 40 misses all the good stuff’, and ‘the good stuff’ is waiting for you to take hold of it and listen to your heart’s content.
