>unnecessarily long bios, nobody fucking cares kek >use it like a social media site, image obsessed like instagram roasties. nobody fucking cares just shut the fuck up and rate/discuss music >listen to cancer like kpop and strawberry hospital and rate them highly >just extremely autistic in general, ruins rym for everyone who just wants to talk music
yeah they're easily influenced by memes/trends too
Evan Hernandez
there are some good kpop actually but yeah i agree they're like building their persona based in music basically
Landon Garcia
I’m a zoomer and use it, but I basically interact with no one. I just use it to keep track of what I like and my overall collection.
Michael Butler
rym was ruined since its inception if you wanted to use it for anything other than cataloging music for your own convenience and maybe trying to discover some new music
Anthony Garcia
>here are some good kpop actually
>when you learn that kpop is the haven for modern jazz and experimental artists to earn money by writing bizarre music and passing it off as pop >the kpop industry is so thirsty for producers that it is willing to pay these absolute fucking mad lads, unironically, for songs that are absolutely bizarre Shit's good yo.
Christian Ramirez
post literally ONE (1) example of this "absolutely bizarre" music
eh, the beginning is pretty cool but the rest of the song is pretty normal, sounds like a bruno mars song
John Howard
>sounds like a bruno mars song Ahahah what an absolute fucking pleb holy shit. The amount of complex harmony and rhythm going on in that song is far beyond the realms of western pop music.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but if can't hear it, I guess you don't listen to enough music to have a well-developed ear.
Matthew Walker
complex =/= good
Tyler Butler
actually not that bad but considering ive never heard anybody discuss this up until this point (and this only has around 60k views from being on youtube for 3 years) this is not a determining factor for kpop's quality
Ayden Gray
Nice snark, but you unironically gatekeeping exciting harmony and musical creativity from the pop music sphere is straight up retarded.
Hows' a blatantly chromatic main theme and unusual song structure at 60 million views then?
Wyatt Roberts
You should check out this artist named Jacob Collier, seems like something you'd dig.
Jacob Moore
Not a zoomer and I don't interact with anyone, but I do notice that the tranny meme there really is real. I'm shocked at how often someone will say that they're a tranny in their profile when I'm looking around.
Chase Evans
kek that's exactly what it reminded me off, sounds like the usual collier wankery
Lucas Jones
Jacob has some cool ideas desu, it's just a shame he sucks at actually writing music. That's why kpop is so interesting, in my view. It is seriously creative stuff, musically, and racks up 10s or 100s of millions of views on the regular. It is both actually relevant and musically interesting.
Blake Clark
>bad pop >experimental I'd rather listen to fucking Friday than this garbage
Mason Fisher
>login to rym >go to an old popular Hard Rock album from the 70's >OMG THIS IS SO PROBLEMATIC, FUCKING DAD ROCK YIKES THIS IS SOOOOO OUTDATED, NOW CHARLI XCX AND Fishmans, that is REAL music >Why would anyone listen to (popular band) when (shittier rip off band that is more obscure) exists??? >daddy issues
Just laugh at the flames from hell OP, it's all a big fuck.
Adam Brooks
>NOW CHARLI XCX AND Fishmans, that is REAL music unironically true though
Christian Scott
>That's why kpop is so interesting, in my view. It is seriously creative stuff, musically I agree, but I would never admit that publicly
Leo Martinez
you the type of pleb who thinks Charles Ives' "Unanswered Question" is bad because it doesn't properly resolve
fuck up outta here lol
Nolan Campbell
The comment box on releases is almost always cancer and it really should be removed.
Liam Mitchell
hahahahahahahah. yeah, the verse-chorus with structure with minor additions, so experimental
Juan Hall
Go back to RYM and then fuck off to Plebit.
Andrew Wood
pretty sure the place where they suck off old music for being old is reddit though
Dominic Sullivan
>discarding slow introduction of multiple themes, and synthesizing those new themes into the main theme carefully over the course of the song, as "minor additions to verse-chorus structure" you absolute fucking pleb lol
Logan Jenkins
this is actually pretty cool wtf
Nathaniel Allen
>namedropping Ives for no reason to try to come off as knowledgeable >baseless assumptions So you do recognize that song is bad but refuse to admit it
Chase Richardson
>chromatic main theme Do you even know what chromatic means?
Anthony Smith
this sounds like it was completely generated by an AI
Caleb Wright
It's a b-side so it doesn't get huge views, but SHINee is a very popular group, and among the legit titans of the genre. They release songs like that as b-sides on the regular.
They even dived into that type of stuff for one of their major singles, "Everybody".
The whole of k-pop is filled with stuff like that lol. It's when you venture outside of the big-name-groups territory that you start to find the real shit though. Samuel Seo and Lee Jinah, for example;
>slow introduction of multiple themes, and synthesizing those new themes into the main theme carefully over the course of the song, as "minor additions to verse-chorus structure you're gonna enjoy this bro youtube.com/watch?v=VSPuRXkUWoU
Henry Brooks
Of course, it means "Diatonic but there's more notes lol"
Julian James
>the bald guy heh yeah he's the big funny
Juan Harris
>caring a music's age How is seventh grade? You all hip and cool? How is that new Lil (gun or fashion brand) doing? Are those Jordans "lit"?
Robert Young
>caring a music's age oh like you're doing right now?
Zimzalabim sucks so bad and usually like Red Velvet
Thomas Hernandez
>Zimzalabim sucks what's the matter? too deep for you?
Ryder Allen
Nah but the chorus is awful, and the fucking marching band drums with that horrible sub-bass over it in the verses doesn't help much either. It's probably one of the worst songs they've ever done
Noah Collins
kpop actually manages to be ahead of its time as in it sounds absolutely dystopian and soulless, people say the future sounds like SOPHIE or shit like that but I unironically imagine this being the norm for music in like 20 years
Joseph Hernandez
>kpop actually manages to be ahead of its time as in it sounds absolutely dystopian and soulless > shit like that but I unironically imagine this being the norm for music in like 20 years Joke's on you, it's the dystopian norm for music right now
Kayden Miller
>It's probably one of the worst songs they've ever done It certainly is a hard song to swallow, but I stepping out of the box a few times in a discography full of some of the best straight pop songs of the modern era is fine.
John Edwards
not really, even billie eilish manages to sound more soulful than kpop (despite it being manufactured or not), kpop straight up doesn't give a shit and acknowledges that it's nothing more than a product based on image rather than musicality or artistic expression. it is literally shamelessly soulless music that knows it doesn't need to be more than that
Jackson Howard
>swedenigger pop producer trying to be wacky but it just ends up being a poorly arranged there's sentimental kpop too youtube.com/watch?v=9xWiro_tS1k
Adrian Wright
>kpop straight up doesn't give a shit and acknowledges that it's nothing more than a product based on image rather than musicality or artistic expression That's really a view which comes from not actually diving into the genre. Many of the artists are actually given freedom to write their own music, and much of the music is full of expression.
Just because BLACKPINK puts out disposable pop music that gets a billion views, doesn't mean artists suddenly vanish.
