Why on earth would you be ashamed to confess you listen to pop? That's really the wrong mentality to take.

RayaBadran · 07-06-2012, 01:46 AM

Not so in love with mainstream pop stuff, but Katy Perry is not bad.

I'm actually curious to know about what you guys will answer

i would say is Metal, Blues or Jazz (there's not a thread for the last two genres), but well.
Only pop singer that i like, a lot, is David Fonseca. Is a portuguese pop-rock musician. I've seen him twice. There's a thread in the wom section.
I listen some pop divas from time to time, but few songs and few times. Still as most of them don't compose the lyrics nor the music i have few respect for them, i consider more an artist when does all the work. Still I appreciate pop performances but I don't truly consider the divas as artists, just great performers.
And off course old pop is good, thought I know more of spanish ones, my mom loved them.
