Songs You Love To Hate

[texasstooge]

Oh, almost forgot another entry: anything from auto-tuned rapper Future (known for his song "Tony Montana").

I heard he just signed to 'I Wish I Was Deaf' Jam.

I don't know if homemade music videos count, but if they do, count this one from rapper R.A.E.D. titled as "No Way". Saw it on a rerun of "Web Soup" moments ago.

NO WAY

I gotta give that dude credit for putting it all together, because that earned him a recording contract with 'I Wish I Was Deaf' Jam.  (Props go out to former "Web Soup" host "Chris Hardwick" for that last part)

Rap music is garbage. I don't know why people love to feed that stuff into their ears. I see no novelty in lyrics that talk about junk (however I'll say eminem is an exception)

People like rap music for all kinds of reasons like my mom likes listening to the beats of a lot of rap songs. She doesn't really give a crap about the lyrics sometimes. I'm the same way.

I heard that Lady Gaga song yesterday on TWC and I couldn't get it out of my damn head! That's a song I love to hate.

Agreed. Same with hip hop. I couldn't care less if it has a "good beat." If I can't relate to the lyrics, I'm not listening. I have a hard time relating to telling b****es and hoes to "give it up" and then "get outta the way." I couldn't care less if they're not talking about me. It's still offensive.

Speaking of "they're not talking about me..." I'm sorry, but that's the dumbest excuse I've ever heard for the horrible things rappers say about women in their songs. If you don't care what men say about women that's one thing, but don't tell me your pro woman, but then give rap and hip hop a free pass.

Since I like beats, but hate sleazy lyrics, I love listening to New Jack Swing, a style of R&B that was popular in the late 80s and early 90s. It mixed hip hop beats with traditional R&B. Sadly, it died out in the 90s with the rising popularity of whiny alternative music.

Another song to add to the "I Love to Hate" list:

"Who Booty" by John Hart

[texasstooge]

Another song that made this list is A$AP Rocky's "'in Problems", At first when this popped up, I was thinking it's probably another rap song about beef between rappers. Come to find out when I was station surfing, it deals with an addiction to sexy women (I'm just gonna leave it at that).

Part of me wants to like it because of the dope beat it has on there, but a part of me already hates it due to the obvious lyrical content.

"Reach Out I'll Be There" by the Four Tops. I can't stand their singing, they sound drunk

[texasstooge]

"Reach Out I'll Be There" by the Four Tops. I can't stand their singing, they sound drunk

I actually like their version of "Baby I Need Your Lovin'".

Anyways, another song to add: "Stompa" by Serena Ryder (Heard it on my local Adult Alternative stations). I mean seriously..."Clappa your hands, Stompa your feet"? Might as well "Pounda your head".

[Metarvo]

"Reach Out I'll Be There" by the Four Tops. I can't stand their singing, they sound drunk

Really?  I happen to like that one!    To each his own, though.

The Four Tops - Bernadette, I Can't Help Myself
The Beatles - Homecoming Queen
Rolling Stones - Satisfaction
Little Eva - Locomotion
The Drifters - Under the Boardwalk
The Mamas & The Papas: California Dreamin'

And a bunch of other 60s stuff I can't recall off the top of my head.

And it's even worse when old people sing along to these songs right in front of me at work.

All songs I like haha.

But I listen to every generation of music, there are no songs that I truly hate.

Bernadette? Never heard that version. I like the Four Tops, along with a lot of other R&B and Soul songs from the 60s. The hippie stuff (Beatles, Mamas and Pappas, etc) I can definitely do without.

This.  I listen to a wide variety too, and I can hear a '50s tune followed by a smooth jazz instrumental followed by a pop song released last year without batting an eye.  I tend to draw my preferences on genre lines rather than generation lines.  The only major genres I really don't do are hard rock and rap.

With that being said, I can't think of any song off the top of my head that I hate, even though I do have favorites.

A few more songs I dont like (in addition to my old post from 2008)

anything by Justin Bieber

gang style something or other by Psy (he also called for the death of American military and their family)

anything else on mainstream radio that I missed (jazz is all but completely gone on mainstream radio)

TWC LF's post 2011 (next thing they'll do is air rap/hip hop with bleeped out vocals)
