I Hate with a passion Artists like 'NIKI MINAJ' 'Cher Lloyd' 'Cheryl Cole' 'Britney spears' 'Maddona'

Nicki Minaj is a truly terrible artist in my opinion. Her songs have no meaning.

Nicki Minaj is a truly terrible artist in my opinion. Her songs have no meaning.

After one of her songs, I abosuletly despise Nicki Minaj.
She completely downright insulted my religion- and it was unnecessary as well. I never liked her music and now hate her as a person for being able to do something like that. Sorry if I sound passionate, but I really dislike unnecessary criticism of my religion or anyone else's.

What song would that be? ._.

[Rated R]

"Beam Me up Scotty"

I find it offensive. It's in the rap.

I didn't see what was so offensive about it. The only mention of religion I remember is an Islamic phrase that I think means something along the lines of "God is good". ._. Maybe I missed something, or maybe I'm just not that familiar with Islam.

[Rated R]

I dunno, I just don't think an offensive word like that should be placed in such a way with religious- just doesn't spark great feelings among Muslims. You are right about what the phrase means, but I just don't believe a curse word with a meaning like that should be put in the phrase. The word used is used in a bad sense normally and just doesn't give a good vibe.

Dubstep is a funny thing, really. I totally disliked it at first, somehow it just didn't sound good to my ears at all, but by now I've found a few songs that I really like. Although I must admit that I'm more in for the "mainstream" dubstep like Skrillex.
It's that kind of music that I can listen to, but where only a few songs appeal to me.

Metal, on the other hand, is, in terms of music, the love of my life.
I grew up listening to stuff like Rammstein, Nightwish or Hard Rock bands like Uriah Heep [Lady in Black used to be my absolute favourite song, and I still love it], and as time passed started to like a broad variety of Metal bands/genres.
I guess the first one I 'was into' was Folk metal, with bands like Subway to Sally, Tyr, Korpiklaani and the like.
But over the course of the years I've come to love most genres, so I'm listening to a variety of them.
My favourite's are for sure Death and Power Metal.
I know that to lots of people most branches of Extreme Metal just sound like mindless growling with some terrible noise in the background, but... well, it's hard to describe, but once you get over the 'oh geez, what is this?' it's actually not all that unmelodic at all.
Often it's actually complex, and when you sit back and listen, the melody is there, you can sink into it.
It doesn't automatically make one love it -heck, Black Metal can be incredibly complex, but yet I just don't like it-, but I think that like Dubstep, for some people certain Metal genres just take some time to find appreciation.
The first time I heard someone growling I wasn't too fond of it. Now I adore it.

What matters for me as well is the... well, thought put into a song. There's music that I like because it has a nice rythm and all, and there's music that I like because it doesn't only sound good, but also comes with, for example, good lyrics, or an overall meaning.
To give an example: I like Jason Derulo's "In My Head" because I like it's melody. Looking at the lyrics, though, it's actually rather disturbing [no offense to those who like it, but the chorus creeps me out].
And then there's songs like Dark Tranquillity's "The Lesser Faith". I love the melody, and I love the lyrics. It's more meaningful to me than "In My Head". It's different.
Similarly, there's rappers who write amazing songs with amazing lyrics, and then we have Lil' Wayne. Again, no offense to the fans, but... just no.
While we're talking about her - the same goes for Nicki Minaj. I can't stand the lyrics, and, in addition, also don't like the melodies or her songs.

What are everyone's favorite, if you have one, Dubstep artists?

[HyperJax]

Since the only Dubstep artist I like so far is Skrillex, Skrillex x3
and yes i find nicki minaj to be a bit nauseating as well.
new text format yay.

What are everyone's favorite, if you have one, Dubstep artists?

Klaypex and Excision have to be my favorite.

On topic: I love dubstep. Absolutely love it. I thought it was horrific at first, but its really grown on me now. I mostly dislike metal, though. Folk metal artists like Tyr are the small exception.
