Why post this drivel?

So you have an article written by a nobody with no real credentials who posts on a gimmicky website that forces you to push the next button 24 times to generate advertising for a crappy website and lists people she doesn't happen to like.

Take the first write-up on Katy Perry - makes not a proven superstar in my book. Don't get me wrong, I loved Katy Perry's red-hot breakout hit "I Kissed a Girl" as much as the next person. Though her second single, the aptly titled "Hot N Cold, " left me...-well...-cold. Ditto for the rest of her lackluster albums — which failed to offer up anything else even as remotely fun, catchy, and irresistible. I keep waiting for her other songs to grow on me. So far, that hasn't happened."

This is the extent of this nobody writer's critique. "I liked one song and didn't like the others as much".

Oh well isn't that profound criticism. What the writer doesn't get - cause she's dumb - is that bubblegum pop music isn't entirely or even at all - about the quality of the singing voice.

The entire premise is stupid. Katy Perry has never been thought of as a great singer or a particularly good singer. So she can't be "overrated" when she's never been rated highly. Neither has Bob Dylan or Madonna or most anyone else on that list.

I'm not a fan of Katy Perry and Justin Beiber but then I am not a 12 year old girl which is largely his target market.
