Well he does have a point, I like 1D for what they make but in 6-7 years from now, they'll be forgotten and I don't know if they will be proud of the music they made just because it's so mainstream pop.
Sure they'll have all the money in the world but I don't think that their back catalogue will be respected as much as let's say an artist who writes all their music themselves...
+ It's not like it's really good pop either, let's be honest here... it's fun, lovely but it's not groundbreaking or anything.
That said, he didn't have to be so harsh too cause that makes him look like a jerk tbh.
But he does have a point.
+ I won't even go into Mumford and Sons cause I don't like them at all.
