Rock died a horrible death back in the late 90's early 2000's... Gave way to hip hop and rap...

Country went half Rap (Hick Hop) and managed to survive, but it still sucks...

Rock and Roll died.

Go to any adult softball game. Boombox is either Country or Rap.

You under a rock? Macca, Coldplay, The Who, The Stones, Phil Collins are all English and have all played the Super Bowl.

If you’re white and speak/sing in English.., all good.

Once you start singing “Mexican” clutching of pearls happens

There's still young musicians out there playing country (alt country, not pop country) and indie rock, metal too, but they are way out of the mainstream now.
most ppl don’t listen to that junk Bad Bunny makes either

It wouldn’t be from left field to have Chris Stapleton, St. Paul and the Broken Bones, or a young band like the Red Clay Strays. People may not listen to them but even my kids had never heard of Bad Bunny - I don’t think people listen to him either. It’s just about creating controversy.

Ghost is OK, but Sleep Token is not necessarily significant. Lead singer is a very good musician though. It's a two man band essentially.....sort of like Steely Dan.

Jeez, dude. Don't embarrass yourself like this. Do a little research before you expose your ignorance.
