Pop music. Isn't this stuff supposed to be easy on the ears? Usually I don't mind the pop station on the radio but lately I've been cringing at the majority of the songs that they've been overplaying.
1. All of the songs are about the same thing it seems like- getting drunk.
Under this category falls the songs Like a G6 by the Far East Movement, Raise Your Glass by Pink and Bottoms up by Trey Songz. All of them glamorize how fun it is to go and get drunk. That's not nessecarily a bad thing, but having every. single. song. (or so it seems) about it is not. In fact, it's annoying. And it's just sad that artists can't come up with anything else besides "sipping sizzurp"
2. Lots of songs have the artist's name somewhere in them. Really? How much more arrogant can you get? Tons of artists just take a new song as permission to scream their names all over the airway. Songs are not advertisement oppurtunities! Songs are for the listeners and fans! We already know who you are, if you're good enough to be known. So don't force your names down are throats, please!
I'm looking at you Jason DeRulo, Ludacris, Usher B.O.B.and Nicki Minaj. 
3. Instead of putting out new songs, artists are simply putting out continuations of other songs that did well. Instead of putting out new fresh songs, they put out copies basically with the same chorus, same everything. Namely these are Airplanes by BOB and Hayleigh Williams and Love the Way You Lie by Eminen and Rihanna.
