As a random comment to some people who hate popular music: when it comes to auto-tuned music or whatever pop song that happens to be "catchy", I don't hate it just because it is mainstream. After all, music can be so subjective, something that is catchy to one person may not be to another. And who is to say which person's "taste" is better? If one song is immensely popular, then there must be something about that that made it sound good to many people.
However, the thing that sets apart "music that pisses me off" and "music that is okay/good" for me is mainly the lyrics => if the song is about slappin hos and cheating on girlfriends and sexy booty, then I get very annoyed.
If it is an auto tuned song with party-like beats but about life and deep stuff, then I could still like it.
