Patrick Carney finally said what many music lovers and critics have been thinking for decades. Pop music sucks.
In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, the drummer of the popular blues-rock duo, The Black Keys, gave his opinion on why rock n’ roll may be reaching its end.
"Rock 'n' roll is dying because people became OK with Nickelback being the biggest band in the world. They became OK with the idea that the biggest rock band in the world is always going to be shit (and) therefore you should never try to be the biggest rock band in the world,” said Carney.Patrick Carney finally said what many music lovers and critics have been thinking for... more

For my second hip hop blog post of the day:
Look I've said this before, rappers don't have the best taste in white people music. Jay-Z hangs out with John Mayer. Kanye spends time with that dude from Maroon 5. I wouldn't put it past Lil Weezy to do a track with Nickelback.
Recently however, rappers are starting to hang with a better crowd.
Stereogum shows us that rappers are spending time with and indie rockers. Kid Cudi partied with Ratatat on Letterman. Ghostface Killah picked up his son's iPod and fell in love with Vampire Weekend. Damon Dash is hanging with the Black Keys. GZA is rapping with the Black Lips. I love these collaborations, because they're great.
We're at this moment in music, we couldn't have imagined when Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock were trying to create the rap-rock genre. This music reality is like old jokes coming to fruition. I swear to god, in '99 I was making jokes about electroclashmashups with gangsta rap. Today that is a reality .
Things that you don't expect now, will become realities in the future. That is why this is my list of predictions for music in 2019.
"Weird Al" Yankovic's massive influence will bring polka to the mainstream. Future rappers are going to rap over accordion basslines with beats in 3/4 time.
Unfortunately robot bands will outsell human bands. [youtube c2JChnwv2Ws]
Everyone's carbon footprint will be cut exponentially, because of karaoke-powered vehicles. Unfortunately noise pollution becomes a serious problem.
Instant DJ Toolbox, will help so many people find love, dating sites like OK Cupid will go out of business. [current 89942210]
Radio stations will play internet memes. 'The theme to keyboard cat will be the most popular song of all time.
Auto-Tune the News will become your number one source for information. If someone isn't auto-tuning, you won't trust them as 'Fair and Balanced.'
These songs will still be somewhere on the Billboard Charts. Unfortunately
Now that is all speculation, but feel free to remind me of these predictions in ten years, on the fiftieth anniversary of Monty Python.For my second hip hop blog post of the day:
