Rofl sometimes im ashamed to be american. I know our poverish people have better lives than the average person in many other nations, but gawdamn does our ignorance shine through especially well on the internet. For the people that hate on this "music" like it's any different from other commercial music then turn around and bump the american equivalent, you're just as blind as the people that enjoy it and think it's good. Clearly this style of music is marketed towards and targeting the majority of people, which unfortunately is impressed by a good production with Insert

edit: would like to add that I think there's definately a place in music for fun/entertaining/not so serious type of stuff, but it dumb founds me this is (close to?) the number one thing viewed in the world at this point in humanity.
