Plastic Party

This genre really has milked itself dry now. I am officially completely bored with plastic party records. You know the sort of thing: "Good Time" or "Green Light" by Roll Deep, "The Time" or "I Gotta Feeling" by the Black Eyed Peas, "On The Floor" by Jennifer Lopez, "Yeah 3X" by Cwith Bwown and pretty much anything by Kesha or Pitbull. And thats just quoting a few examples.

To those of you who haven't heard any of them, let me explain. Take a mid-tempo dance track, add a few bored sounding rappers extoling the virtues of partying hard and how wonderful Friday and/or Saturday night it and a pissweak chorus with no more than one line, repeated over and over and over and over until your brain bleeds.

To the <1% of the population who actually partake of this mind-numbing and liver damaging activity of the weekend pilgrimage to some seedy, sticky room beneath a barbers where loud, abrasive music is played, these records might actually be relevant, but to the majority of 7-12 year olds who download them, they aren't.

Its just a shame this country seems full of idiots who want to listen to the trash, really.
