I wish performances were magical again, like they used to be. Technology is making performers boring now, there's no stage props, no choreographies, no backup singers, no good vocals. Artists are so lazy now :/ I feel bad for the new/young talent (Shawn Mendez, Troye Sivan, Meghan Trainor, 5H, etc) they growing up in the era of new technology and their labels trying to cut costs at every opportunity they get  I remember being so impatient to watch the last acts bc it was expected of them to deliver awesome performances, but now... I choose to watch everything online... I cant sit through award shows anymore  so sad
awful, boring, performances :/ I hope Ariana out-does herself for the BBMAs although her performances are almost always not that great either

DISGUSTED down to my core. The current era in music is TRASH.
Like, I'm lost for words. I keep seeing people PRAISING Britney's performance and I'm sitting here wondering If I'm going crazy or not. MTV, iHeartRadio and many media outlets commenting on that performance, calling it EPIC, a TRIUMPHANT return for Britney, calling that Shawn guy 'bae who should sing to me everyday', praising Fifth Harmony.
People don't speak their ****ing minds anymore. All these sites are run by gay, ATRL wannabe members who find Britney's dancing the best thing since MJ's Thriller. Call me ignorant, call me disgusting, call me a racist. I don't care. Gay people are ruining Music. There' all like YAAAAS Britney, bend those knees, flip that hair a thousand times. And people have to read those IDIOTIC comments and reviews and they start to believe them as well.
Artistic integrity is LOST. Real artists are LOST. Real talent is LOST. Replaced by mediocrity and youtube/Instagram/twitter stars.
Sad times we currently live in. Sad times.

LMAO.
I agree with some parts of your post tho. There truly isn't much talent in the industry anymore, just manufactured boys and girls who look cute and are marketable to kids. People may disagree with you though because you know this is ATRL, home of delusions and stan wars.
Yes, I know I have Rihanna in my avi but I'm sure you get my drift

 sis forgetting that the past is NOT static and is structuring the very present. #forgettingaboutbecoming
#too nostalgic
#not enough pragmatism
i call it E•VOL•UTION, where "authentic roots" are not fixed as solid but as constantly changing, unfixed x

Well Britney slayed. She should've dropped a new single and the industry would have been revived. Y'all need to stop being pressed about Britney.

Yes, it IS bothering me because I'm pursuing a career in Music and I live and breathe music and it PAINS me to see the industry sinking like this. But they have only themselves to blame.

It is defo not the gays ruining the industry
The gays aren't the ones buying and streaming these shite novelty hits and all these new teen artists have huge fan bases of little girls so it's not that.
It's just technology and the fact we've all grown up. People in 10 years will say the same thing and long for the days of Nick Jonas performing
Either that or pop music is just in a bad place right now. Everything's a cycle, wait for the next Lady Gaga
Do you not think in 2001 there wasn't millions of people outraged that "blonde bimbo lip syncing with a snake" killed the industry and "real music" like Nirvana was dead etc? It's nostalgia

I think you're on to something.
All you need is a hot body and abs and the gay will skyrocket you to success.

There isn't much talent in the industry because it's the INDUSTRY WHO CHOOSES WHO TO PUSH AND PROMOTE. There are SOOO many talented artists out there who care about MUSIC and ARTISTRY. Where are they? Do you hear about them? Instead, the industry chooses to USE these mediocre 'singers' or whatever you want to call them and the people, the sheep that we are, support them and think they are AMAZING, YAAAAAS, slay those notes, slay those hair flips, queen of the universe.
It truly PAINS me.

Well, we have Ari and Meghan so no
Demi could be great if she just acted natural
And Selena doesn't have a great voice, but she's making some cool music
