I’ve spent a lot of time on Spotify recently looking for new music to listen to and, frankly, I left disappointed in what I found. Some of the music was decent, some was good, but for the most part, I did not like what I heard.
I went back into my 1990’s, 2000’s and 2010’s playlists and the difference is profound. I’ve heard time and time again that this is normal, that it happens generation after generation. But it’s not just the music.
After watching the latest Oscars show with Conan O’Brien hosting, I started to think about the movies of the previous decades and the conclusion is the same, in my opinion. I remember watching the Oscars and having watched all of the best picture nominees. Now they’re mostly unknown–at least to me.
Television? Maybe. I’ve heard we are living a TV golden age due to all the streaming platforms pumping out so much content. I’ not sure about this one.
So, is it just me? Am I just getting old? Or is the quality of a lot of popular media really in decline? What say you?
