I was expecting a statement like "garage is shit" to provoke people around here and was sitting back and grabbing some popcorn to watch the ensueing shitstorm.
The fact that this didn't happen is somehow disappointing... you should try slating jungle next.

And Sean Paul is not completely critically panned, either.
In Swears' original post, he says we should be "objective as far as that's possible", which I took to mean we should pick things that are hated far and wide and seen as illegitimate musically. Turns out he just meant we should talk about music critics hate.
objectivity=critical consensus?

Who's shocked? I wouldn't expect most people to like Sean Paul, but people here seem like they might...

I think they are really good, actually, David Morales’ mix of ‘Space Cowboy’ in particular. Unlike some people, I don’t view them as cheap imitators at all, but rather as the 90s’ answer to Earth, Wind and Fire (a good thing—natch).
stevie wonder isn't that obscure.
escape from planet earth or whatever it's called is a direct nick of les conquestidores by johnny hammond. A blatant rip no less.

I mean stuff that is neither rated by the critics nor the public (although maybe it sold ok at some point in the past), music that very few people ('cause there's always someone, isn't there?) would even bother to try and revive or legitimise.
To be honest, I think it's a rather scarce commodity.

Johnny Hammond was just a keyboardist wasn't he? Might have singers on some of his tunes though.
yep he was a mizell bros dude, that track is a direct nick tho.

... far more irredeemable than anything else including hair metal, modern singer-songwriter etc is just about any NME-sanctioned indie/rock music of the last 25 years. Just the fact that it thinks its intrinsically better than the former stuff is another to make me cringe. Not that I'm exactly mad on the other...
And the amazing thing is indie seems to get more unpardonable the longer its made maybe reaching its apotheosis with the Arctic Monkeys...
maybe bit predicatable that but for the sake of completeness...

Oh but I've just thought of something else equally bad/even worse... anything by Andrew Lloyd Webber or any horrible lowest common denominator Hollywood film soundtrack music by John Williams
