WTF! (not a Libra Topic) is happening
Understanding the Youth Trends and Cultural Shifts
Recent youth behaviors and viral trends reflect changing social dynamics and digital influence. These shifts involve new music, internet personalities, and social media culture shaping what is considered mainstream among younger generations. It is important to recognize these as part of evolving cultural expressions driven by technology and peer influence.
i like this one though ( sorry i have a weakness for them leo's )
i don't know what the heck is so amazing about justin bieber. he's not even that hot and it's not like he has a really good personality either. i don't like how he goes around bragging that he's a ladies' man. he's just so smug.
i generally don't like kids who try to act cool. we sooooo don't need another bieber.

this started with that beiber shit.
Lol.
IT means you're getting old and can't remember when the pop stars you grew up with as a child were about as young as hell as these pop stars are now.
You don't remember Kris Kross? B2K? New Kids on the Block, Jackson 5, hell even Britney spears looked young as hell when she first came out...and she was probably worse than all those children up there combined.
So yah...you're old...it's okay...if you were the age you are now..and you were enamoured by these popstars above...THEN i might be worried. But what your'e feeling now...perfectly normal.

Holy shit!!! THat is the most funniest video I've ever seen in my entire life.....that little boy's girlfriend dumps him for a 17 year old and he's talking about "unfriending" her on facebook...lol.
Oh man, facebook drama is serious.

No it means they suck.
If you think that CHild pop stars are "new" and that it all started with "justin beiber" than that really shows your age.
Do you even know half the people I mentioned in that other post? Whether you like the music is irrelevant, because the poster wasn't talkin about whether she liked the songs or not..she was talking about a trend that for the most part seemed 'foreign' to her..and i'm telling her it isn't.
And personally...Willow smith and Beiber be going off with they're little selves..i don't know what you're talking about.

they ALL suck from willow smith to lady gaga
fuck the current music industry
dude, how old are you? Cuz if you're in your late 20's and in 2011...you should be 'beyond' this juvenile argument.
You probably think Hip hop is dead too ha? lol.
^ What he said and as far as the artist you mentioned they all sounded better then Justin B.

lol
1st off, I am in my early 20's
2nd off, it isn't dead, it has lost substance (the mainstream hip-hop)click to expand
Yah...early 20's...nevermind.
The second quip was a joke...and I disagree...but that is neither here nor there.
I listen to everything...I'm a libra.
start a new thread....don't want to hijack ya girls thread talking about how children are taking over her pop music and how sick and vile it is and how the music world is coming to an end.
Posted by oldskoolflavor
vague answers ..
what you get when you're trying to have a serious convo
Start a new thread..i'm serious.
Well it's happening because kids accessing the internet (thus youtube etc) are getting younger and younger, there is a great huge market for them. Perks and banes of technologie.

^^^ yep. and a younger person is a better investment..considering the material is mostly manufactured, purchased and sold to the masses the term "investment" is quite accurate. the longer the life of it, the more money it yields before you'd have to pour more money into a new, not yet proven investment.
Agreed.
I like the Beeber myself.. so, no probs with that.
Willow Smith is apparently Will Smith's daughter. She looks like she's thrust into the spotlight way before she's ready. She looks like she has very little energy there.. not likely to win big. Her brother though, I feel is definitely suited to the spotlight.

I got the impression she just badgered her parents to make her a pop song cos her older brother was the new karate kid.
haha sibling rivalry. Maybe the parents are milking her youth who knows these days, ha

oh dont compare kris kross to beiber seriously! and you even put jacksoon 5! hahaha they had voices and real songs. . beiber only had the hair cmon. britney she wasnt that young.
AND YES! I agree the music industry now sucks! im sorry but 1970's, 1980's and 1990's generation had their own identity. . . the 2000 almost all was nothing but hype ( except for the early 2000 rnb chill sounds and dwindling shoegaze / rock bands )good thing i still have them reggae artists and snow patrol around to keep me sane. Lady gaga? haha i like her songs but it doesnt really stick to me that much. Lady Gaga is just all Blab about her parading in her ovary monster shitness. . . Gwen Stefani could kick her ass anytime. Rihanna is a different story though.
This
it's absolutely mind-boggling how just about anybody can become a celebrity nowadays. you don't even have to have talent. all you need is the right connections (and some luck).
you really suck at reading...
You first statement wasn't..."oh hey I hate justin beiber and the new children pop stars suck!!"
You said..."Are Kids the New 20's?" that is COMPLETELY different from going off and stating that you don't like those artists.
I am not arguing whether Kris Kross is better than Justin Beiber.
I am arguing that children pop stars are NOT something new, and that Justin Beiber as a pop star isn't anything "groundbreaking" OR Beiber-craze isn't anything revolutionary...if YOU think it's new..than you must be too young to remember other teen pop crazes from the 90's and 80's. Or children musical acts...LIke what I mentioned above.
Or if you want to know what I'm REALLY saying is...you don't know what you're talking about.
I am not going to get into an argument about your musical preferences, that's retarded. But if you're going to bitch about something and then end up WRONG, own up to the shit.

Nah, I reckon she was going apeshit over her bro being karate kid, so Will hooked her up with his old producers lol

ah Will yer old friend hey? Lol
Haha quite likely, but she looks like she's about to collapse in that video.. Def a late bloomer

i wasnt arguing dont go get bitchy about im just saying whatever those kids NOW are bleeehhhh. . . . I know what im saying . . .youre the one who's trying to prove me wrong. . .wrong with what—? Im just voicing out that WTF is happening with music nowadays.
You own up your own shit you keep blabbing stuff to people who starts their own threads then it turns to attacking. . . wtf is your problem you're kinda like p- angel when she turns bitchy and rides on her high horse. CHILLLAAXXXX!!

click to expandpfft..hight horse..okay...misrepresenting what i'm trying to say and then going on a tangent to back pedal what you said makes me bitchy. I'm not going to pretend that I like it, sorry. That just irks the hell out of me..if you understood what I was trying to say, then you wouldn't have felt a need to compare two different artists..or try to imply i said something I didn't.
I did not say "justin beiber and kris kross are the same in quality or value". I said they are the 'same' as in they are both child musical acts. but before I forget, thanks for posting "jump".
and to add on your topic, you know people been bitchin about the music since they started to commodify it? so, your revelation on how these new artists suck..also isn't anything new.
and baby, i don't have a high horse....we're equals...talk like it.
Just so you know, I don't think you're stupid...I do think your argument is stupid. And I'm sorry if I come off supremely hostile or if you think that I don't want you to speak. I do, and I'm challenging you to step your game up.
Where do you think Justin Beiber is any more revolutionary than any other teen/child star that came out in the 80's and 90's? What trend could he have possibly started that wasn't already there back then?
