Is today’s contemporary music lacking?
I listen to various genres of music, and I am a big fan of rock/pop from the 1950s to today.
When I turn in the radio to hear new pop/rock songs, I often hear “monotonous” verses with minimal melody repeated again and again (4x) then the chorus not quite matching the music of the verses. The artist seems to try using a good voice trying to make the song sound good but these songs seem to lack a good “melody”. Anybody else notice this?
Also, because pop/rock music is well established, is it more difficult nowadays to create new good melodies - are artists running out of creative ideas? This thought has often crossed my mind whenever I hear another song remake.
