Ok, so I know I will get super flamed for even making this thread, but I had to seeing as how popular the "Black Eyed Peas" thread is with a few members. (and I actually prefer Beiber to BEP)
The other day I realized I couldn't stand Beiber for no apparent reason except that everyone does and he is fun to make fun of. So I decided to actually leave my pre-judgments outside and actually listen to some of his music.
My assessment? It's fairly harmless, and surprisingly I would choose Beiber's music any day over the likes of a lot of other pop garbage out there nowadays. It's all really predictable music, and really simple, with themes that could relate to a lot of teenagers, so I can see why he is so popular with the young ladies.
I think people just hate him because he is a successful teenager with more money than all of us on this whole forum combined will make in our lifetimes. It's easy to jump on the bandwagon of hate, but come on he doesn't deserve to be booed at basketball games and stuff because of his music.
Anyways, here's a couple tracks I actually found listenable (though I still deem it not worthy to enter my collection of course, and it could with a lot less autotune and better production), and preferable to a lot of pop stuff out there these days surprisingly.
Somebody to Love Remix ft. Usher
Never Say Never ft. Jaden Smith
Baby ft Ludacris (I really do like me some Luda every now and then! Surprised to see him on this track)
I dunno, give the kid a chance. Who knows which direction he will go when he grows up.
