Horrible music on the radio.

                        I don't know if I may be maturing or growing out of a phase but I feel like every year the quality of music on the radio continues to decline. As a fan of hip-hop, R&B, and rock, every time I hear the radio it seems the music continues to sway in a more materialistic and fake direction. At work I am driving for six hours making deliveries and I have to listen to the radio since there is no CD player. I hear the same song with different rhythms. I actually get annoyed at certain songs I hear due to the crappy subject matter and excessive rotation. The song "toot it and boot it" plays at least 12 times in the 6 hours of work and I feel the radios do not try to play any real music anymore. Everything you hear has the same reoccurring theme of sex, alcohol, clubbing and degradation. Everything has become so sugar-coated and superficial, causing many feeble minds to follow this trend. I feel it causes the youth to try and emulate what they hear, which is mainly negativity. One thing that baffles me is these girls saying how they hate to be disrespected yet in the clubs they are screaming lyrics that degrade women. I think it is hypocritical and when something is supported no one thinks it is wrong. I feel the new direction of media is going to a fake, ugly direction.
                    Not only is the subject matter bad, but also the production value of the music. No longer do people make music with real instruments but through computer programs. I'm not saying all it is bad because I do listen to some of it, but the artists who make real music like groups such as The Roots never get put in rotation on the radio. The quality of the music is declining, and a hit songs only needs to be catchy with punch lines, yet has no lasting value. The songs are good for the year or two they are popular and after they are forgotten. It is just a quick radio hit and the artist does not do it for the music but to reap the benefits.
                  I am not saying what they play is all bad, yet they will only play certain types of music. There is no diversity in the music. Like I said earlier, all you hear is the same reoccurring themes. You do need you superficial songs to make dance music and what not, but I feel they should not stick to one theme. They should play conscious music too. The music with the positive messages seems to stay underground and it will never be heard by the mainstream. It almost seems like the better the song the less it is played. People speak of this industry called "The Illuminati" which control the music to control the minds of the listeners. They make the people buy the alcohol and party excessively to keep them dumb. I believe that and feel being smart is not important any more but being "cool" is.
