Age has nothing to do with it, whether you like it or not. There are teenagers these days who would rather listen to music from the 60's, 70's, 80's, than the crap made these days. In those days you actually played an instrument.Old bitch alert...
Let me guess. You're at least 60.
Age DOES have to do with it... you cant tell me that the majority of people into the older music arent older themselves. You cant count these small one off groups as substantialAge has nothing to do with it, whether you like it or not.

I have a friend who was in the CD selling business, and he would always say the stuff from the 60's, 70's and 80's always sells...the crap these days nobody wants 6 months from now.
A friend who says? What does that prove? What you said was that rap was crap. I think today`s rap, rock, and pop are all lacking and I don`t like country, but the genre itself isn`t crap.Age has nothing to do with it, whether you like it or not.

Music from that era is 30-50 years old, and it still sells.but you cant speak for 30-40 years from now...oh I forgot...you and your friend have a crystal ball.
It was no different for that stuff back then either...it was hot...then its not and the older generation bitched about it the whole time

Usher and Diddy performed "new" songs on American Idol tonight and it was pretty bad. If it wasn't for Diddy having money, there's no way someone would give him a music deal with that crap.
Kool Moe D? Talk about a shitty rapper.Todays Rap and Hip-hop is the unwanted bastard son of superior musical forms like jazz and blues.
Grand Master Flash, Kool Moe D, Run DMC, even Tupac and LL Cool J, were all quality rappers back in the day. The new stuff out there today does nothing for me.
Kool Moe was before my time, but he ripped Busy Bee...Kool Moe D? Talk about a shitty rapper.
That was tight and Kool Moe D clearly has a place in hip hop history as a pioneer, but I've never dug his studio albums.
For example:Rap? It is what it is. Not singing, not just talking, but flowing over a beat while you make sense.
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/21/arts/music/21choice.html?_r=1&ref=music... producers are masters of what might be called algorithm-and-blues: crisply digitized grids of beats and hooks. Radio stations love algorithm-and-blues, which segues easily from R&B to hip-hop to commercials on a consistent electronic pulse. The arrangements are often supremely clever, but the songs can also be busy and bloodless, and they’re built for adequate voices, not commanding ones. Often they tend to treat vocals as one more neatly placed sound effect.
Nice.....
