Avoiding her music and "swifties" is easy enough.

I said mediocre. Her music is mediocre. Terrible would be more interesting especially next to Taylor Swifts songs....

"The children" listen to way more bland and worse music than Swift.

The fact that mumblebee rap is the most prominent form of rap on the radio and for the youngins is proof of that.

Agreed
It's like when you wake up in the middle of the night and have a massive boner but you don't know why. You can't tell if it's from a dream or you just have to piss. Such is Swift

I always thought she was about as good as Alanis Morisette, but she has a few bops like Shake It Off and maybe Anti-Hero (which has an appropriately god-awful music video you should watch). Dunno how she's more popular than, say, Lady Gaga.

Taylor Swift is based as fuck as far as I'm concerned. I don't listen. To her music but I do love how politically active she is. I also love how much she's influencing younger generations to get registered to vote. GOP fucking hates Swift.

I agree with tc. I like some of Taylor Swifts more recent stuff, but even then it feels like a more corporate version of Phoebe Bridgers.

She had a newer song on the radio. Is it over yet or something. It was so bland i cant recall any of it.

Her music is perfect for like the mall or something in the background.

Selena gomez and Miley Cyruses newer songs have been great though but no one gives af about them

If she didn't look like a supermodel I doubt the fame would be so great, or there at all.

Hearing her live, the voice isn't all that. She's not close to people like Aguilera or Gaga.

This makes no sense.

Pop = Popular.

If its not charting or selling, its not popular.

Pop music doesn't just mean popular anymore and it hasn't for a long time. Indie pop is a well-established genre with many great artists.

Most of her music isn't for me, but she's an objectively good songwriter, she's easy on the eyes, she's got a good voice, her production and marketing are S tier and she's generally stayed out of trouble. I have massive respect for her sticking to her guns and her political views, even when they're as mild as "Go out and vote" it can cause all sorts of backlash when you have her level of popularity.

Anyway, it's 2023. If you don't want to listen to her... just listen to something else.

...that started when Indie artists starting getting popular and.... charting on Billboard in the 90's.

If anything, it's all just a sub-genre of rock music.

But that's not really pertinent to the discussion on hand. For the past 60+ years, mainstream success in music has always been about having the backing of the record label you're on.

Charts and sales don't matter in the streaming age nearly as much as they used to.

Pop music still very much exists.
